He believes that the DOJ and FBI have lost their way and need to be held accountable for their actions. As president, he would not tolerate any abuse of power or collusion with tech companies to censor information.<\/p>\n<h3>Partisan Politics at Play<\/h3>\n<p>DeSantis agrees with other Republicans that the FBI has become too partisan and has been weaponized against Americans who share his beliefs. He believes that presidents have been misled into thinking that the FBI and DOJ are independent entities, when in fact they are part of the executive branch and answer to the elected president of the United States.<\/p>\n<h3>Accountability is Key<\/h3>\n<p>DeSantis believes that these agencies have been able to operate without any real accountability for too long. As president, he would take responsibility for holding them accountable and clearing out anyone who is not doing their job. He believes that it is important to do the people&#8217;s business and not abuse authority.<\/p>\n<h3>Standing Up to the Critics<\/h3>\n<p>DeSantis knows that standing up to these agencies will not be easy. He acknowledges that he will be attacked by the media and other critics, but he is willing to wear that as a badge of honor. He believes that trying to please polite society will only lead to being captured by the institution itself.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion<\/h3>\n<p>DeSantis&#8217; announcement has sparked a lot of discussion and debate. Some believe that he is the right person to lead the country and hold these agencies accountable, while others think that his approach is too aggressive. Regardless of where you stand, it is clear that DeSantis is not afraid to take charge and get things done.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Florida Gov.
