Words matter more for a governor looking to murder democracy

Something very important was supposed to take place last Thursday, the day Gov. Ron DeSantis tried to murder democracy.

Hillsborough County State Attorney Andrew Warren was set to announce a huge victory for crime-hating, peace-loving seekers of justice everywhere. Instead, Warren was escorted from his office by a sheriff's deputy and replaced as the chief prosecutor in the 13th Judicial Circuit even though he'd been elected twice.

That bears repeating. The people of the 13th Judicial Circuit twice voted Andrew Warren into office. DeSantis decided to order him out.

"This political stunt should scare anyone who believes in our democracy," Warren said during a Friday morning press conference with opinion page editors from across the state. "It's a flagrant abuse of power. It's a flagrant violation of the most fundamental American value that people elect their leaders. That's how democracy works."
