It’s going to be a busy day on BML. Senator Bob Menendez got the harshest sentence ever for a US Senator for betraying his office and his country. He got off light.
Kash Patel is facing a huge task if confirmed as Director of the FBI. Restoring trust in the agency will not be easy or fast. He says political retribution will play no part in his administration of the FBI.
It’s not the same with Governor DeSantis. Our headline, Politics & Punishment, comes together in DeSantis’ battle with the Florida Legislature. As he continues the push for his version of a new Florida immigration law, he’s now threatening to raise money and primary any dissenting Republican legislators.
Representative Monique Miller will join us in our 7am hour and provide her insights on the special session and other issues facing the Sunshine State.
Crime and Punishment remain our focus in our final hour as our new State Attorney Will Scheiner joins us. We’ll introduce you to our new prosecutor and get his perspectives on handling prosecutions in the circuit, including crimes committed by politicians in office that have not been prosecuted traditionally by the State Attorney’s office.
Welcome to our lead into your weekend.
