Ron DeSantis just announced that the state of Florida will be conducting its own investigation into the second assassination attempt on President Trump’s life Sunday afternoon at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach.
This investigation is separate from the FBI’s investigation and aimed at preventing the feds from staging a cover-up.
DeSantis announced the investigation on X, saying that Florida will be getting to the bottom of things and letting people know the whole TRUTH about what happened:
The State of Florida will be conducting its own investigation regarding the attempted assassination at Trump International Golf Club.
The people deserve the truth about the would be assassin and how he was able to get within 500 yards of the former president and current GOP…

Fox News has more details:
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said Sunday that his state will conduct a separate investigation into how a second gunman was able to get within 500 yards of former President Trump.
The former president was playing a round at Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, when the U.S. Secret Service opened fire on Ryan Wesley Routh, who was allegedly armed with a rifle.
Authorities said Routh had a GoPro camera and two backpacks, and allegedly shoved the muzzle of his rifle through a chain-linked fence about 300 to 500 yards away from the former president.
The agents fired at Routh after they saw him raising the weapon, Fox News’ Lucas Tomlinson confirmed. Routh then fled in a black Nissan but was apprehended quickly, authorities said.
Trump was on the fifth hole of his course when the shots rang out, prompting his protective detail to swarm him and usher him to the safety of the clubhouse. It marks the second assassination attempt on Trump in just two months.
As more information comes out about what is being investigated as an attempted assassination on Trump’s life, DeSantis announced Florida will conduct its own investigation to find out what happened at Trump International Golf Club.
DeSantis is following advice from ex-Navy Seal and founder of the private security firm Blackwater, Erik Prince, who told Benny Johnson that DeSantis should step up and investigate the assassination attempt himself:
🚨WOW🚨

I’ll end this by saying please pray for DeSantis, President Trump, and everyone else involved in trying to take our country back from the corrupt powers that be.
There truly are evil forces at work in our nation, but in times like these, we must remember that God is greater than any plot, cover-up, or scheme.
