Quick Glance: In the midst of 2024 conjecture, DeSantis strikes a tough tone in his inauguration speech.
- During his inauguration speech on Tuesday, Ron DeSantis (R) took aim at the "floundering federal establishment" in Washington, praising his accomplishments during his first term as governor and hailing Florida as a symbol of freedom.
- The Florida Republican used his speech to call Florida a "refuge of sanity" in comparison to the rest of the country. While DeSantis did not mention President Biden or any other Democrats by name, he did criticize the party on issues such as COVID-19 vaccine mandates and border management.
- DeSantis' speech in Florida came while House Republicans in Washington are still divided about who should be Speaker of the House.
