Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis took swipes at Gov. Gavin Newsom in his own backyard during his visit to SoCal amid a widening Republican Primary battle ahead of 2024.
Authorities said employees were able to remove the paint before DeSantis' arrival. However, soon after, a large contingent of several dozen protesters took to the sidewalks in front of the library to protest his speech.
In a statement issued on Saturday before his arrival, Newsom sarcastically welcomed DeSantis to the "real freedom state." "I think it goes back to this woke mind virus that's infected the left and all these other institutions," DeSantis said. "I mean, think about the way they have governed the states. They put things like woke ideology over the tried and true principles that President Reagan stood for and that most Americans believe in."
Areas like Orange County and Simi Valley offer ample opportunity for potential Republican candidates like DeSantis to rub elbows with some of the country's wealthiest and most powerful GOP members ahead of 2024.
