Critics haveat the notion that the state PAC’s decision to shift tens of millions of dollars to a pro-DeSantis super PAC — which is barred by law from coordinating directly with any candidate — would be made independently of DeSantis. Never Back Down is run by some of the Florida governor’s “closest friends,”“The idea that Ron DeSantis is no longer controlling or associated with ‘Friends of Ron DeSantis’ is absurd,” journalist Judd Legum.
In its complaint, CLC notes that on the same day that DeSantis launched his campaign, “Never PAC confirmed that it has received or will soon receive $80 million from Friends of Ron DeSantis, and that the super PAC had factored that major contribution — comprising 40% of its budget — into their plans.
“Indeed, for weeks before DeSantis’s candidacy announcement, Never PAC officials had reportedly been ‘telling donors they intend to push the bounds’ of super PAC support, laying out plans to raise and spend ‘about $200 million’ to support DeSantis’ presidential campaign, including ‘the more than $85 million that DeSantis has in a state fundraising account,’, Friends of Ron DeSantis,” the complaint states.
