A state attorney from Florida funded by George Soros lost his job on Thursday after Governor Ron DeSantis terminated his employment.
This marks the second Soros-backed, left-wing state prosecutor who’s lost their job this year while another faces a recall election.
Andrew Warren, now unemployed, vowed publicly not to enforce several laws on Florida’s books in an effort to increase his notoriety. There’s no doubt Warren wanted to become governor of Florida one day and by bucking DeSantis, and thus the will of the people, was his way to do it.
Kind of like the BETO approach — and we’ve all seen how that’s worked out.
DeSantis announced that Andrew Warren would be suspended, effective immediately, for failing to enforce the state’s laws dealing with crime and regulating abortion.
“Our government is a government of laws, not a government of men,” DeSantis said.

DeSantis pointed to places such as Los Angeles and San Francisco, which have held recall elections over liberal prosecutors who didn’t enforce laws. Liberal billionaire George Soros helped fund prosecutors in both jurisdictions.
Warren was suspended under Article IV, Section 7 of the Florida Constitution, according to a press release from DeSantis’s office. He said the suspension came following a statewide review, which found that most cases of laws not being enforced traced back to Warren’s office.
“He has put himself publicly above the law,” DeSantis said.
Prosecutors have a duty to enforce the law, not pick and choose which laws they agree with.

Warren has publicly stated that he will not prosecute criminals who violate several landmark bills signed into law by Gov. DeSantis, including regulations on abortion, gender ideology in elementary schools, amongst others.
Always a politician, the now-unemployed Warren used his firing as an opportunity to garner as much media attention as he possibly could. Warren unsubstantially claims that his firing was unconstitutional and that DeSantis has overstepped his authority as governor.
Today’s political stunt is an illegal overreach that continues a dangerous pattern by Ron DeSantis of using his office to further his own political ambition. It spits in the face of the voters of Hillsborough County who have twice elected me to serve *them*, not Ron DeSantis… pic.twitter.com/RzPXksSSWa

Warren remains defiant, but who wouldn’t? He did just lose his job in a very public way.

DeSantis appointed Hillsborough County Judge Susan Lopez to take over for Warren.
The rockstar America First governor just sent a clear message to the woke libtards in his state: F*** Around and Find Out What Happens!
