DeSantis Takes a Stand, Suspends Soros-Backed Prosecutor to Save Faltering Campaign
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has made a bold move to salvage his struggling presidential campaign by suspending the “woke” Orlando-area State Attorney Monique Worrell, who is known for her soft-on-crime approach, amid allegations of pandering to the right. In response, Worrell has unleashed a barrage of baseless accusations, calling DeSantis a “dictator.” But let’s be real, folks, this is just another desperate attempt to regain media attention and please her radical left-wing supporters.
DeSantis is no stranger to taking on Soros-backed prosecutors, as he had already suspended one last year for refusing to enforce necessary regulations on abortion. Determined to make Florida a true “law and order state,” the governor wasted no time before declaring Worrell’s suspension and appointing the competent Orange County judge Andrew Bain to replace her.
It’s my duty to protect the people of Florida.
We will not tolerate a State Attorney who pursues an agenda at the expense of Floridians. Florida is a law-and-order state. As long as I’m Governor, it will stay that way. pic.twitter.com/lsguX9M3Sd

DeSantis’s actions come as no surprise, considering Worrell’s records of failing to incarcerate dangerous juvenile criminals and neglecting to enforce mandatory minimums for drug and gun charges. Let’s not forget the chilling murder case where a 19-year-old with a lengthy rap sheet took the lives of three innocent people, including a young girl and a television reporter. Despite the overwhelming evidence, Worrell’s soft approach allowed this murderous criminal to remain on the streets, posing a threat to the community.
The governor has made it clear that Central Florida deserves a State Attorney who upholds justice and the law, rather than one who lets violent criminals roam freely, putting innocent lives at risk. It’s about time we had someone in power who prioritizes the safety and well-being of the people over misguided ideologies.
Unsurprisingly, the Democrats wasted no time jumping to Worrell’s defense and shamelessly accusing DeSantis of playing politics. They choose to ignore the fact that she has repeatedly demonstrated leniency towards criminals, leading to a rise in crime rates and jeopardizing public safety. The Congressional Black Caucus, in particular, is painting this suspension as an attack on democracy and black leaders, conveniently forgetting that it’s about accountability and ensuring justice for all, regardless of skin color.
As DeSantis strives to position himself as the decisive alternative to President Trump, he faces an uphill battle, with the former President maintaining a significant lead in the Republican primary. But let’s not forget the swamp that Trump promised to drain and the waffling that followed. DeSantis is a man of action, unlike Trump, and will not waiver when it comes to making tough decisions in the best interest of the people.
With a campaign manager fired this week, DeSantis is clearly making strategic adjustments to regain momentum. In this grand reshuffle, Worrell’s suspension marks another step towards a stronger and more focused campaign. It’s time for Florida and the nation to embrace a leader who values law and order, and who will not tiptoe around criminals and their accomplices. Thank you, Governor DeSantis, for standing up for the people and their safety!
