On March 30, a New York grand jury indicted Trump over alleged misreporting of a hush-money payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels in the weeks leading up to the 2016 presidential election. However, it must be noted that extradition is outside the governor&#8217;s jurisdiction.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis tweeted that &#8220;the weaponization of the legal system to advance a political agenda turns the rule of law on its head. It is un-American.&#8221; He also criticized the Manhattan District Attorney, Alvin Bragg, as being &#8220;Soros-backed,&#8221; and accused him of downgrading felonies in the past and excusing criminal wrongdoing. DeSantis went on to say that given the questionable circumstances involving the prosecutor&#8217;s political affiliations, Florida would not cooperate in Trump&#8217;s extradition.<\/p>\n<p>However, Trump&#8217;s defense lawyer, Joe Tacopina, told CNN that the former president is expected to travel to New York next week despite DeSantis&#8217; statements.<\/p>\n<p>Trump described the indictment as &#8220;political persecution and election interference at the highest level in history,&#8221; and accused &#8220;the radical Left Democrats&#8221; of engaging in a &#8220;witch-hunt&#8221; against him ever since his presidential campaign began. Entrepreneur and Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy also criticized the indictment and called it &#8220;politically motivated.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gov.
