Defiant DeSantis Hits Back Hard at Federal Judge Who Slapped Down 'Alligator Alcatraz'
Jeff Charles / Townhall Tipsheet
US District Judge Kathleen Williams issued a ruling on Thursday placing a preliminary injunction on the expansion of the facility as the matter is litigated in court.
During a Friday press conference, DeSantis told reporters
that “this was not something that was unexpected” because “this is a
judge that was not going to give us a fair shake.”
The governor claimed the “activist” judge’s ruling was “pre-ordained.”
“This is not going to deter us. We're going to continue working on the deportations, advancing that mission,” DeSantis continued. “We knew that this would be something that would likely happen, and we will respond accordingly.”
He further declared that Florida is “now in this position where we’re leading the state efforts to help the Trump administration actually enforce the law and actually remove these illegal aliens from not just Florida, but from our country.” Read more, see X and video here.
