The Florida political committee once controlled by Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis transferred $82.5 million last month to a super PAC supporting his presidential campaign, according to information posted to the committee’s website.
The shift of the funds has been anticipated ever since DeSantis entered the race with tens of millions of dollars left over from his 2022 reelection bid. However, the move nevertheless makes official an unprecedented effort by DeSantis allies to test the limits of campaign finance laws to benefit a presidential contender.
The Campaign Legal Center, a watchdog group, has already filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commision, flagging the expected transfer as potentially illegal. The organization alleges that DeSantis had unlawfully directed the money into a super PAC, Never Back Down, which is supposed to operate independently of candidates.

That’s a lot of Meatballs for very little return. 61/19 Trump over the Greasy One.
Yes, I wonder too.
You could just about look at one of his replies, and it would be as if he copied and pasted it in every Trump thread that he could, calling Trump supporters cultist, leftist, and lying about desantis.
What that poster does, is meant to turn off people from continuing to read threads, so he’s deliberately disrupting them.
Look, a creepy Trump cultists wants to censor and ban me on FR, just like Biden and the left do to us conservatives.
Elections are allowed to be stolen because Trump signed the CARES Act which funded vote by mail, ballot harvesting and billions in fraud.
Look, another creepy Trump cultists that lies repeatedly is also trying to shut down anyone who dares question Lord Trump.
These people do not believe in open primaries and debate. They want a coronation.
If you weren’t such a soreazz you would see that this is CNN, not Trump supporters making an attack. You just can’t help yourself can you? You make the accusation before anyone has said anything which is like inviting ridicule. LOL
You and Ron are going to have to get a thicker skin and weather the storm. I don’t think either of you has what it takes.
Voting by mail is a State issue not a Federal issue. Florida did a good job. Your State, Pennsylvania, did a piss poor job.
“Look, a creepy Trump cultists wants to censor and ban me on FR, just like Biden and the left do to us conservatives.”
“creepy Trump cultists”
Yes, I would zap your dumb ass for just being so boring and monotonous. Can you come up with another insult, instead of wearing that one out? We would all be so appreciative. But, we all know you are too stupid.
It’s all they’ve got. ;-)
Unlike Trump, DeSantis actually implemented conservatism via legislation.
Trump's actions were overturned in the first 24 hours after Biden took office. DeSantis' policies are permanent until a governor and legislature can change them.
But you keep making excuses for Trump not getting the job done, like putting Hillary in jail, draining the swamp or securing the border.
Trump chickened out investigating Hillary because he wants to be loved by the left. DeSantis puts Democrats in prison.
Trump bans bump stocks and was willing to sign Feinstein's assault weapons ban (which he believes in) while DeSantis has enacted constitutional carry .
Trump supports a nationwide 15 week (negotiable) abortion mandate to keep it available for those who impregnate porn stars or strippers. DeSantis reduced abortion in Florida from virtually unlimited to 15 weeks in his first term and now 6 weeks in his second term. DeSantis is advancing the pro-life cause. Trump is heading in the other direction.
DeSantis took around 1-2 million from Disney in donations before 2020, but gave all that up when Disney supported groomers over parents. Trump took over $10 million from Disney and refuses to condemn them.
DeSantis revokes liquor licenses from restaurants that have drag shows with children in attendance. Trump throws LGBTQ+ parties at Mar-a-Lago to celebrate Biden's Respect for Marriage Act
DeSantis followed Fauci and locked down Florida, then reversed course, fired his surgeon general and opened Florida back up. Trump stood by Fauci like a deer in the headlights and never used his bully pulpit to speak out against lockdowns, masking and other mandates.
DeSantis admits he made mistakes in the early days of the Wuhan Flu, but then pivoted toward freedom. Trump praises Cuomo as handling the Wuhan Flu better than DeSantis.
Would you like to do more comparisons?
...while every other post from a creepy Trump cultist is DeSanctimonious or Meatball.
Thank you for being a hypocrite. It bolsters my "cult" label.
My favorite is when the Trump-cult tag the Admin Moderator or even JimRob in their replies to me. They actively try to remove competing opinions from this site. They really do not see the irony.
Yes, they are no different than those who banned and censored opposing voices on social media.
They cannot see that they have the same mind as those who banned Trump from Twitter.
I had a discussion with Jim. He asked if I would vote for Trump if he wins the nomination. I said yes. Jim is an anti-communist more than a Trump supporter.
Those who risk being banned are Trump supporters who say they will not vote for the nominee unless it is Trump, which allows Biden an easy path to victory.
