In honor of America 250, I’ve re-released my first book, Dreams From Our Founding Fathers (2011), with a new introduction.

Friends and supporters have asked me to do this over the years, but I didn’t want to mass market the book, so we’ve only released 1776 copies — all signed and numbered by me.

DeSantis says "no" when asked today if he will work for the Tampa Bay Rays organization (or new owner Patrick Zalupski) after leaving office.

There's been lots of speculation amid his push for a taxpayer-funded stadium deal in Tampa.
