このコンテンツについて
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has been making major headlines this week with a flurry of activity that is dominating both state politics and the national conversation. According to WLRN, under DeSantis’s leadership, Florida has now executed more prisoners in 2025 than any other state, marking a dramatic and controversial escalation in use of the death penalty. Fifteen executions have already been carried out this year, and two more are scheduled for November, catapulting Florida to a record not seen since the 1970s. DeSantis publicly defended this record during a recent appearance in Jacksonville, insisting, as reported by WUSF, that bringing justice to victims’ families and diminishing lengthy legal delays is his priority. Critics, however, allege that this aggressive push is not only a matter of policy but also about cementing his image on the national stage in his final term as governor.
In the legislative realm, DeSantis’s 2024 law banning social media accounts for kids under 14—and requiring parental consent for 14- and 15-year-olds—continues to be a lightning rod. As Britannica and WUFT detail, while the law goes into effect January 1, 2025, a recent federal court ruling denied tech industry efforts to block it, handing DeSantis a victory but leaving the legal battle ongoing. The law has ignited debate, with DeSantis and allies claiming it’s necessary to protect children, while opponents maintain it tramples on free speech and will lead to confusion for Florida families. Major news outlets including Education Week highlight that the law is among the most sweeping in the nation, and DeSantis has been vocal on social media and in press releases celebrating this stance.
On the public appearance front, DeSantis was in New Haven on November 14 as the keynote speaker for the Buckley Institute’s annual conference, according to the Yale Daily News and CTInsider. There, DeSantis hammered what he called “liberal dominance” at elite universities and touted his record managing Florida's pandemic response, tough-on-crime policies, and institutional reforms. He also spoke at Stanford’s Hoover Institution last month, emphasizing Florida’s explosive population growth and fiscal management as a testament to his governing philosophy, as reported by the Stanford News.
DeSantis made headlines again as Florida residents rallied at the capitol on November 17, pleading with him to halt the controversial statewide black bear hunt. WUSF and WPTV described scenes of protestors imploring DeSantis to intervene—his silence on the matter noted by environmentalists and critics alike.
The governor’s official channels have been busy as well. His office just announced additional state office closures for the upcoming holiday season, and he recently signed the 2025 Patriot Day Proclamation, ensuring flags will be flown at half-staff on September 11, as reported by FLGov and Florida Vets.
No new major business activities or scandals have emerged in the past 24 hours, but DeSantis’s strategy of high-visibility lawmaking and headline-generating public positions shows no sign of slowing. For now, Ron DeSantis stands as one of America’s most polarizing and headline-driving governors, pairing hardline criminal justice decisions with a calculated national appeal and a willingness to take on Big Tech and campus culture alike.
