"Florida Allies Retreat on $5 Million Trump Legal Fund as DeSantis Threatens Veto"

Florida allies of former President Donald Trump proposed a bill to establish a $5 million fund for "victims of political discrimination," allowing eligible politicians to receive payments for legal fees. However, GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis threatened to veto the bill, prompting one of its sponsors, Florida State Sen. Ileana Garcia, to withdraw it, stating that Trump can "handle himself." The bill's unraveling comes after DeSantis dropped out of the race and endorsed Trump, signaling a shift in political dynamics.
