Gov. DeSantis slams Manhattan DA amid Trump probe, says ignored citizens of NY are real victims
On Monday, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis criticized Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg as being a "Soros-funded prosecutor" who is "pursuing a political agenda and weaponizing the office" by reportedly considering indicting former President Donald Trump in connection to an alleged hush money payment to adult film actress Stormy Daniels. DeSantis says the real victims are ordinary New Yorkers.
Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL): "If you have a prosecutor who is ignoring crimes happening every single day in his jurisdiction, and he chooses to go back many, many years ago, to try to use something about porn star hush money payments... You know, that's an example of pursuing a political agenda and weaponizing the office."
