CNN's Jim Acosta Has Case Tip For Gov. DeSantis' Vote Cops: 'Coup' Plot At Mar-a-Lago
CNN host Jim Acosta on Saturday took on Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ controversial plan to establish the nation’s first-ever election police force with a tip for its initial case: A “coup” plot at Donald Trump’s Florida golf resort Mar-a-Lago.
“Yes, officer Ron, I’d like to report an insurrection!” smirked Acosta.
With no evidence of notable vote fraud, the Republican governor has alarmed voting rights advocates with his scheme to create a $5.7 million security force to police voting. If approved, the 52-member team would “investigate, detect, apprehend, and arrest anyone for an alleged violation” of election laws.
“They don’t have a lot of safeguards to keep this from being politicized and weaponized,” Brad Ashwell, the Florida state director of the voting rights group All Voting is Local, warned CNN earlier this week.
