Pro-DeSantis Super PAC Faces Turmoil as Officials Depart in Latest Shake-Up

Three senior members, including the CEO, communications director, and director of operations, have left Never Back Down, a super PAC supporting Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, just weeks before the Iowa Republican caucuses. The departures come as DeSantis faces pressure to challenge former President Donald Trump's lead in Iowa and nationally. The shake-up is seen as an attempt by DeSantis' loyalists to regain control over the super PAC, which has been instrumental in his presidential campaign. The group was initially funded with over $80 million from DeSantis' political accounts but is legally prohibited from direct coordination with the campaign.
