"DeSantis wants to resurrect Florida State Guard, a WWII force disbanded in the late 1940s. Unlike the Florida National Guard, the FSG would answer solely to the Governor. No federal deployments. No federal missions. No federal dollars."
DeSantis wants about 200 members.
"They would assist National Guard...state-specific emergency response...want to be able to have quick response capability...allow civilians from all over the state to be trained in best emergency response techniques and have the ability to mobilize quickly,” DeSantis said.

"A SWAT team responded after a man was killed...Police officers responding to a call about 10:30 a.m. saw four people get out of two cars and begin firing toward a house...People inside returned fire and hit one of the gunmen, police said."
Kudos to the @WTA: "Simon said the Tour, which has a deal to host 11 tournaments in China, would weigh the possibility of no longer doing business in the communist nation if there were not “appropriate results.”
"I’m not sitting here and thinking that I’m going to solve the world’s problems by any means. But what I am here to do is that we have an athlete that’s part of the WTA family that’s come out with serious allegations. We’re going to be 100% supportive of that..."
