In Florida tonight, DeSantis supporters were holding signs that said "fake news" "fake bombs" outside the gubernatorial debate.

I have no words for how low the deplorable Republican base will go...   #MAGABomber .

FL Gov. Rick Scott & his wife have invested at least $18 million in financial firms managing money for the state’s pension system he oversees—intertwining his personal finances with his responsibility for supervising state employees’ retirement savings

Can we criminally prosecute this fraud already? Rick Scott should have gone to prison for overseeing the biggest Medicare fraud scandal while CEO of HCA/Columbia? He rejected billions from Obama for a high speed train because he invested in a rival company. White collar criminal.

Scott is one of three state officials who serve as trustees for the Florida State Board of Administration, which manages a $160 billion fund for roughly 400,000 retirees. Scott, Attorney General Pam Bondi, and Chief Financial Officer Jimmy Patronis oversee lucrative state investment deals granted to cash-hungry Wall Street firms.

• The three firms that have received $325 million worth of Florida pension investments have allowed the Scott family’s blind trusts to simultaneously invest their personal fortunes in these funds. 
• Scott’s investments in the funds did not appear in a 2014 disclosure itemizing his holdings. His campaign did not say when the investments were made.
