Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is undermining voting rights by removing elected officials to replace them with his allies.
, the elected chief prosecutor for Hillsborough County and an outspoken critic of the governor. Warren, who was given no warning, was escorted from his office by an armed deputy., DeSantis accused Warren of “incompetence and willful defiance of his duties.
In his complaint, Warren points out that DeSantis has not identified a single case that he declined to prosecute: His office had not received any cases regarding abortion, and Florida does not currently criminalize transgender medical care. So far, Warren has already received one favorable ruling: When DeSantis moved for dismissal, arguing that First Amendment protections do not apply, U.S. District Judge Robert L. Hinkle disagreed, allowing the case to move forward.
Another amicus brief in support of Warren was filed by a group of scholars of the Florida State Constitution.
