While participating in the "Clay & Buck" podcast, a day after his presidential bid announcement, DeSantis expressed his concerns about the perceived misuse of the FBI and the Department of Justice for politically motivated targeting.
DeSantis' announcement, released in an audio-only format, was made public through an FEC filing ahead of a virtual conversation with Elon Musk, the CEO of Twitter.
Musk shared that DeSantis will be making “quite an announcement” on Twitter and referred to the event as "the first time something like this is happening on social media.”
