pete, the job of a DA is to enforce duly constituted laws, not to enforce your personal political agenda. This DA made a choice to go on TV and announce that he wasn’t going to enforce laws that he didn’t like.
how is it proven that the DAs promise of non prosecution isn’t the reason for the heaped ion? i’m curious?
the da said he wouldn’t prosecute, then he was suspended, and Fesantis made it clear that was the reason.
getting fired from your job for saying something is different from getting arrested for saying something. there are all kinds of things that are legal for me to say which would get me immediately fired, and that’s not a violation of my first amendment rights. When you take a job, you are agreeing to abide. up the rules of your employer. that’s how thee world
works.

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!
Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

to do what? to enforce the laws impartially? or to implement his personal political agenda?
the constitution of the state of FL gives the governor the authority to suspend this elected DA.
if he wanted to enact liberal laws he should have run for the state legislature. the DA has a different role.

Let no one be confused: DeSantis is not a break with the MAGA anti-democratic movement. He is only a less buffoonish version of the defeated former president. And that makes him all the more dangerous.
But Jim’s been fooled once already
