Judge Robert Hinkle may give Andrew Warren justice against DeSantis firing him.

Andrew Warren was a twice elected official who DeSantis fired for being too "woke" but the courts do not see he had the right.

DeSantis may want to make Florida the place where "woke" goes to die, but courts may dump him out on his a**

Hopefully the court will be able to put some chains around his growing illegal actions and keep him in check long enough for some balance to be restored.

I can’t fathom an official being removed from office because of something he MIGHT do.

This is really something we should label as "THOUGHT POLICE"

ELECTED OFFICIAL was fired because of his thoughts about what cases he should enforce.

No conversation.

Just, you think too woke, you're gone.

DEFINITE overstepping of his authority.
