GET ME REWRITE: And the hits just keep on coming for the swirling-down-the-toilet Moms for Liberty clown show

 
HeadlineFlorida Bulldog, 3/7/2024

The cesspool that is Ron DeSantis's Florida
Descovich, who is paid a salary of $50,000 plus $6,000 in benefits by Moms for Liberty, isn’t a registered lobbyist in Tallahassee, or apparently anywhere else. She has, however, been an outspoken advocate pushing a variety of conservative public policy and education positions including so called “woke” issues with Gov. DeSantis and legislators. 
DeSantis appointed Descovich last September to replace Glenton “Glen” Gilzean, who quit after Florida Bulldog reported on his significant conflict of interest. While serving as ethics commission chair Gilzean took a $400,000-a-year job as administrator of the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District, formerly known as the Walt Disney Company controlled Reedy Creek Improvement District. 
By accepting the job, Gilzean violated the ethics commission’s most fundamental rule: that commissioners cannot be state employees. The reason: the commission’s constitutionally mandated job is to oversee the conduct of state officers and employees. 
Gilzean quit a week after the Bulldog’s story was published.
