TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — U.S. District Judge Robert Hinkle issued a ruling Friday that appeared full of contradictions.
He lambasted Gov. Ron DeSantis for violating the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and for making a flimsy case for ousting Hillsborough County State Attorney Andrew Warren.
But the judge decided he couldn’t intervene: It’s a state issue. Not the purview of a federal judge.
