Republicans have been legislating their corruption for decades. There was talk of recalling Rick Scott, and that's when everybody found out that the Republican legislature had prohibited recalls back during the Jeb Bush era, so he couldn't be recalled for his role in the cheating scandal that got his idiot brother elected president.
So when democratically elected Democratic DA Monique Worrell was replaced by a DeSatan operative for no reason, she sued, but it turns out that the governor of FLORIDA can legally do that. So she ran again, her opponent lost in the primary, and easily won her reelection. DeSatan decided not to replace her a second time.
Instead, he had Homeland Security replace the sheriff. He also replaced the leadership of the Kissimmee Police Department over a minor scandal, when an officer was recorded kicking a prisoner in the face. Police have straight up murdered suspects, and the police chief wasn't removed from office over it.
They haven't removed any other positions outside of Central Florida. Clearly, the hispanic-dominated central Florida counties of Osceola and Orange are under siege by the MAGA government, and the rest of America doesn't know it.
This feels like it should be blatantly against the Florida State Constitution or something JFC - like the fact a Governor can even do that is absolutely wild.
I get they typically, at least in my state, will get to replace a rep if one is removed for xyz reasons but not to the extent of whatever fuckery is going on in the land of DeSantis (honestly still can't believe he won that election).
