DeSantis picks Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody to replace Sen. Marco Rubio

DeSantis spoke on Thursday about his criteria for filling that Senate seat, which will be up for election in 2026: the importance of "making illegal immigration illegal once again," responding to the "economic crunch" and "crushing inflation," and fighting against "the woke agenda."
