Gov. Ron DeSantis has DENIED claims he staged a Hurricane Milton press conference with extra debris behind the podium to make the situation appear more dire. 'Debris was being added to the pile because that is an actual work site,' DeSantis' Communications Director Byran Griffin wrote on X. The Governor's Press Secretary Jeremy Redfern added in a furious response: 'Of course they're adding debris to the pile. It's so they can make it easier to pick it up with the giant claw and put it into the back of a truck.' #florida #hurricane #news #desantis
