Special primaries in two conservative Florida districts will take place Tuesday to replace former U.S. Reps. Matt Gaetz and Mike Waltz.

A push by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to crack down on ballot initiatives could have unforeseen consequences for the business interests of his state’s most prominent resident: President Donald Trump.

When asked what they wanted to see President Donald Trump first tackle in his new term, residents in The Villages, Florida all agreed on border security as a top priority.

The Florida impact starts with immigration. In the first 24 hours of his presidency, Trump announced a national emergency at the southern border, suspended refugee resettlement and terminated a humanitarian parole program that had offered a legal pathway to entry for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans.

Florida’s GOP leadership will roll deep in Washington D.C. on Monday. State lawmakers will be participating in President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration events just days before convening in Tallahassee for a special session, planned to support Trump’s immigration policies he aims to enact on day one.

Florida lawmakers rejected Gov. Ron DeSantis' special session on illegal immigration but immediately segued into their own session with their own version of a similar bill.

President Trump is planning on implementing many policies that have roots at the Florida Capitol, and it’s happening very quickly.

Lawmakers are considering stripping DeSantis of his immigration enforcement powers, which the governor used to fly migrants to Martha’s Vineyard three years ago.

The races to fill the U.S. House seats of former Reps. Mike Waltz and Matt Gaetz began Tuesday with primaries in reliably conservative districts that solidly back President Donald Trump.

Holding the retreat at a Trump property threatens to ignite the same kind of criticism that dogged Trump’s first term: that he has sought to personally profit from his public position.

I'd like to see the Florida Legislature using this time to pass some meaningful legislation now that we've entered the period of mass deportations.
