‘He’s weaponizing politics’: Elected state attorney DeSantis suspended says he threatens democracy

Published

on



Ron DeSantis has suspended a duly elected Florida state attorney Monique H. Worrell, who is the only Black woman local prosecutor in Florida, and the second progressive prosecutor DeSantis has suspended. Worrell tells Joy Reid, “This is an attack on democracy, and everyone, Democrat, Republican, Independent, or otherwise should be concerned that here in the state of Florida one person can remove duly elected officials because they are not politically aligned, and that is exactly what an attack on Democracy looks like.”

    Because of her a woman was just killed in her home, the criminal was release after having major criminal records. Now the victim died in the hands of a criminal and two disabled kids without a mother/caretaker. Love how the news only talks about this disgraceful woman whi let's criminal out

    I am sorry to say but Gov.Desanite would not a make great President of our country though-out his term as Governor he has show disregard for his citizens and for his state constitution, and US Constitution, I hope in the republican primaries he lose in dramatic fashion, that he won’t run again for POUTS

    Maybe she should actually do her job instead of giving violent offenders multiple breaks.

    LOSS OF DEMOCRACY? How come there is no law suit for wrongful termination? If he was just doing this with no evidence, then it should be a slam dunk. WHERE IS THE LAW SUIT? Other words he did his job and she was removed because she did not do her job and people got hurt and killed because you let criminals back out on the streets. You failed the people in your district and they are feeling the results of your incompetence. Try to play the race card all you want, your record stands against you.

    she got fired because she failed to uphold the laws of florida. she was sending out repeaded offenders out on the streets.

    Typical bull—-. If she didn't do her job, it doesn't matter whether or not she was elected. I'm so sick of MSNBC. So predictable. So woke. So foul.

    Wouldn't he have something called " evidence" ?? He can't just say abc and then suspend someone.? Can he?

    December 24, 2023 at 7:15 am

    Awesome! She got booted for not doing her job and now she’s complaining! Everything these days is an attack on democracy. So firing folks that don’t do their jobs is going backwards? What a joke! 😅😅😅

    This DeSatan guy is a trip. But what is so scary is the number of people going along with his foolishness. It just shows how we voters elect people who are dumber than we are. It's time to wake up..cause we obviously are not "woke" yet. 666
