Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier has subpoenaed the Democratic Socialists of America as part of an investigation into whether the group accepted donations or support from foreign countries such as Cuba and China.
Uthmeier, a Republican, announced the move Tuesday in a video posted on X. “We are examining whether DSA accepted contributions or support from foreign sources of concern, including the regimes in Cuba and China,” he said, “and whether its fundraising from Florida donors has been fully transparent and lawful.”
His office is looking into whether the DSA broke state law by accepting foreign money tied to its delegations and solicitations for travel funds.
Florida has some of the toughest laws in the country targeting foreign influence. One bars nonprofits from accepting donations from people or entities connected to “foreign countries of concern,” a list that includes China, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Russia, Syria and the Venezuelan government.
The investigation centers in part on the DSA’s ties to Cuba. In March, a group of DSA members, including some from Florida, joined a coalition of activist groups, among them Code Pink, on the “Nuestra America” convoy to the communist island. The group reportedly brought medical and school supplies and solar panels and met with Cuban government officials.
A DSA spokesperson told the Florida Phoenix that the group is “aware of the situation” and has “no comment at this time.”
The subpoena comes one week after the first DSA-backed candidate won a seat in the Florida Legislature, a sign of the socialist group’s growing reach even in a state that has trended sharply to the right.

Maybe the DSA can just escape to North Korea.
And even if they did, and even if they can prove that they did, absolutely nothing will be done about it.

This is Florida so I would not be so sure about that.
