Here’s what the New York Post reported:

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has assembled his final campaign team ahead of today’s presidential run announcement, enlisting a mix of battle-tested strategists and committed political allies.

The White House push will be helmed by seasoned campaign maestro Generra Peck, who guided DeSantis to a 20-point clubbing of Democratic gubernatorial challenger Charlie Crist in November.

Known as a savvy political tactician, Peck is close to both DeSantis and his wife, Casey DeSantis, and was lauded by name at the Floridian’s January inauguration.

David Abrams, former communications director for New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu, will handle the campaign’s messaging and paid media initiatives.

Abrams also worked on former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie’s 2016 presidential effort.

DeSantis will tap his former congressional chief of staff Dustin Carmack as his policy director.

He was previously chief of staff for the director of national intelligence during the Trump administration.
