DeSantis says Florida wouldn’t aid Trump’s extradition to New York.
Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida, who is widely expected to challenge Donald J. Trump for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024, called the indictment of Mr. Trump “un-American” and said that his state “will not assist in an extradition request” should one come from New York authorities.
Earlier this month, Mr. DeSantis took two days after Mr. Trump inaccurately predicted an imminent arrest to comment, and at the time he demurred on the potential role that he or his state — home to Mr. Trump, who lives at Mar-a-Lago, his private club in Palm Beach — would play in potentially extraditing Mr. Trump to New York.
Just now from the NYT; God that's a crazy headline to even be reading.
In 1987, the Supreme Court ruled in Puerto Rico v. Branstad that individual state governors cannot prevent extradition of people to another state where there is an active arrest warrant against said people.
