Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said Florida will not get involved after rumors started to fly about former President Donald Trump possibly getting arrested this week.

During a news conference Monday in Panama City, DeSantis was asked about his thoughts on the rumored Trump indictment and any role he plans to have in the extradition.

"So I've seen rumors swirl, I have not seen any facts yet and so I don't know what's going to happen," the governor explained. But he continued to comment on the Manhattan district attorney.

"I do know this, the Manhattan district attorney is a Soros-funded prosecutor and so he, like other Soros-funded prosecutors,...weaponize their office to impose a political agenda on society at the expense of the rule of law and public safety," DeSantis said to reporters.
