Trump-aligned super PAC calls for ethics investigation into DeSantis' potential presidential campaign.

A super PAC closely aligned with former President Donald Trump, Make America Great Again Inc., is calling for an ethics investigation into Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' recent political activity, accusing him of operating a "shadow presidential campaign" and violating state law. The letter accuses DeSantis of enriching himself through his book tour and benefiting from financial support intended to influence his decision to run. DeSantis' spokesperson called the accusations "frivolous and politically motivated." The state ethics commission is notoriously slow-moving in reviewing potential violations, and most infractions, if validated, result in a nominal fine.
