Florida Governor Ron DeSantis blasted the former president for not dismissing those involved in the alleged collusion at the time, alleging that agencies in the Trump administration "colluded" with Big Tech to bury the Hunter Biden story in 2020. 

"I reflect on the Hunter Biden censorship, which was a huge deal to occur during the 2020 election, and realize that it was actually Donald Trump's own agencies that were working with Big Tech. I never would have allowed that to occur. DeSantis stated to Maria Bartiromo in an interview for Fox News' "Sunday Morning Futures" that he would fire those employees immediately.

Republicans are worried about alleged "collusion" between the FBI and social media companies to stifle conservative viewpoints. They point to Twitter's initial decision to restrict the spread of a story in 2020 that contained the contents of a laptop belonging to Hunter Biden as evidence of this. Twitter executives later acknowledged that their initial choice may have been incorrect, but they steadfastly maintained that Democrats had no input into their choice.

DeSantis is now using a common Trump talking point against the former president himself by pointing out that the New York Post article was published while he was in office. DeSantis frequently promotes his fight against Big Tech in Florida.

"We'll stop turning government into a weapon. DeSantis reiterated a promise he frequently makes: "And that's, of course, a new FBI director on day one." "That's where I differ from Donald Trump. He claims that FBI Director Christopher Wray is still up for debate. On day one, I believe you need a fresh start. At the Justice Department, a purge is imminent.

DeSantis, who has been lagging behind Trump in recent primary polls, has kept up his pitch that he is the more methodical, results-driven alternative to Trump, holding the same positions on policy.  

But Maria, this is what it needs. It requires a president who is focused and disciplined, the speaker said. You must remain focused on this. These individuals won't voluntarily relinquish the power they have gathered through years of disregard. I've demonstrated my ability to complete tasks in Florida.
