On Tuesday’s “Hugh Hewitt Show,” 2024 Republican presidential candidate Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis stated that there have been officials in the government who tried to kneecap the agenda of the elected president, such as leaks during the Trump administration, and that he would fire the State Department employees who have complained about the Biden administration’s support for Israel because “They don’t have a right to go against policy. Their job is to implement policy.
DeSantis said, “I think the issue is, you have a concentration of power that’s been detached from constitutional accountability. And some of that is because of neglect of the elected branches. For example, the DOJ and FBI, a lot of conservatives — and me included — rightfully point out the weaponization and the abuse of power. But you also have the fact that presidents of both parties, for decades, have not done a lot to police that. Congress has not used the power of the purse.
He continued, “Now, on some of the intelligence and some of the national security, we saw with former President Trump, when he was in office, some of those people worked to kneecap his agenda. He had situations where he would do a phone call with a foreign leader, it would get leaked to. And it was almost of the idea that hey, you may have gotten 270-plus electoral votes, but ultimately, they still control the show. That’s not the way the Constitution was designed.
