Ron DeSantis, the governor of Florida, is widely regarded as one of the top governors in America. He successfully shifted Florida from being a swing state to consistently leaning towards the Republican party. More than two decades ago, during the 2000 election, Florida was a crucial swing state. The impact was such that even today, Ralph Nader, if he were as clever as an old car hubcap, would avoid appearing at any Democratic event in the state.
And on Thursday, he went medieval on a reporter whining about the rounding up of illegal aliens.
🚨 Florida Governor Ron DeSantis just absolutely SAVAGED a fake news reporter who claimed ICE is deporting American citizens.

The X post continues:
There are concerns about individuals who cause harm to American citizens while driving under the influence or commit serious crimes after being allowed back into the country under President Biden’s administration. Governor DeSantis highlights the consequences of the federal government’s failure to enforce the law appropriately in such cases, leading to additional victims due to past neglect.
“Let’s just be clear. Who are YOU fighting for? We’re fighting for the citizens of Florida.”
Governor DeSantis dismisses certain arguments as false narratives, based on his experiences. He acknowledges the repetitive nature of these claims and suggests that the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency would be better suited to address such allegations.
The reporter in question, of course, wasn’t fighting for Florida or America. Who she is advocating for is simple: People who are in the country illegally, people who remain in the country as fugitives from the law, people who prey on innocent Americans. She and many in the legacy media are advocating for foreign gang members and terrorists who have infiltrated across our borders and who now are hiding in our cities, in our communities, planning… What? Nobody knows.
