Ron DeSantis Tells Russell Brand That Jan. 6 ‘Was Not an Insurrection’
"In a podcast conversation with the British actor Russell Brand on Friday, Gov. Ron DeSantis of Florida rejected characterizing the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol as an organized plot by former President Donald J. Trump’s supporters to disrupt the transfer of power.
“It was not an insurrection,” Mr. DeSantis said, continuing to walk a tightrope on the subject of whether the former president, his main rival for the 2024 Republican nomination, bears responsibility for the riot.
When Mr. Brand brought up the likelihood that Mr. Trump will soon be charged for his role in trying to overturn the 2020 election and asked Mr. DeSantis whether he would pardon Mr. Trump, the Florida governor sidestepped the question. Instead, he accused the news media of exploiting the issue."
