The latest from Florida paints a chilling picture that proves some individuals are willing to go to extreme lengths to silence conservatives. Ryan Routh has been hit with a felony attempted murder charge after attempting to assassinate none other than President-elect Donald Trump at his Palm Beach golf course. Routh’s reckless actions not only endangered Trump but also left a six-year-old girl seriously injured when he fled the scene and crashed his vehicle during a police response.
Reports reveal that Routh didn’t just drive away in a panic; he led law enforcement on a chaotic chase down Interstate 95, leading to a tragic accident that injured a young girl. Florida’s Attorney General, Ashley Moody, laid out the severity of the case — emphasizing that the chaotic series of events were not only tinged with attempted murder but could be classified as domestic terrorism. Moody underscored that the potential consequences for Routh could be dire, with a prison sentence that could stretch to life.
Moody’s sentiments resonate with many Floridians who feel deeply for the injured child and her family, while firmly grasping the idea that justice must prevail for President Trump as well. With the shadow of a possible assassination hanging over the state, one has to wonder how far some are willing to go in their deranged quest to undermine conservatism.

Governor Ron DeSantis has jumped in, describing the nettlesome obstruction faced by Florida’s investigation as akin to a runaway train. He signaled that the feds are desperately trying to put potholes in the justice road for Routh. As the federal investigation stumbles over its own feet and the attempted assassination case lurks in the shadows, DeSantis has launched a state-led probe that showcases a bold commitment to justice while many in Washington seem more concerned with political theatrics.
With Routh already facing charges in federal court, including attempted assassination and firearm violations, the stakes are substantial. DeSantis hinted that more charges might be around the corner as Trump prepares to take office. If there’s one thing that seems certain, it’s that January 20th could be a date of reckoning for Routh. Whether justice is served swiftly and completely remains to be seen, but one thing is clear: those who threaten the future of America’s leadership will be held accountable, regardless of their motivations.
