In other words, DeSantis tried to take all the credit for these shipments. Nothing came out of his pocket!


............Governor touts Florida’s role

The shipment of weaponry drew criticism from Florida Democrats.

“President Biden is the commander in chief of our military — not Ron DeSantis,” said Florida Democratic Party Chair Nikki Fried. “As a Navy veteran, Ron should understand the importance of respecting the chain of command. This is a gross breach of norms and a potential violation of federal laws governing the shipment of weapons.”

DeSantis did not disclose the state’s role in shipping weapons and ammunition when he posted a graphic on X, formerly known as Twitter, touting several of the state’s efforts to help Israel amid the war.

“Thanks to all who helped make this happen,” the governor, who is running for GOP nomination for president, said in the post on Wednesday.
