No I am not a fan of the Fla governor, but this is just a hit piece.

Meatball's State Guard is a seperate force aside from the state's NG. The National Guard can be called up by the US military for national defense purposes. Ron's State Guard answers only to him. It was revived last year to respond to emergencies. So what "emergencies" would require troops with combat training?
