Enough is enough.
That’s the general consensus from two of the most popular politicians in the United States of America right now following the unprecedented actions of the federal government on Monday.
Both Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake and Florida governor Ron DeSantis believe that the FBI was way out of line with their raid of President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home.
Kari Lake questioned whether the Biden Administration just set a new precedent, one which could have the likes of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton shaking in their boots if President Trump is re-elected.
She said that strong governors need to start pushing back against the federal government, and remind them that the states are the ones who created it.
She also pointed to out that the hiring of 87,000 IRS agents is more proof that the federal government will soon start targeting the rest of us.
Ron DeSantis echoed that message, and has pledged his support to Lake’s campaign.

Lake also brought up the fact that the IRS appears to be mobilizing against the American people.
If they can target a former President, they can (and will) target you.
Do you think it’s a coincidence that they hired 87,000 IRS agents the day before this raid?
Not a single one of us is safe.

Florida governor Ron DeSantis echoed Lake’s comments about the IRS.
The raid of MAL is another escalation in the weaponization of federal agencies against the Regime’s political opponents, while people like Hunter Biden get treated with kid gloves. Now the Regime is getting another 87k IRS agents to wield against its adversaries? Banana Republic.

Kari Lake could be the next Ron DeSantis…
We're slowly replacing the RINO's with fighters.
