In the wake of Hurricane Milton, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has come under fire for reportedly refusing to take phone calls from Vice President Kamala Harris regarding hurricane aid and response. Harris accused DeSantis of being 'selfish' and 'utterly irresponsible' for dodging her communications during a critical time, while DeSantis claimed he was unaware of her outreach, suggesting that the calls seemed political. The White House has pushed back against DeSantis's claims, stating that both President Biden and Harris had reached out to him for support in the storm recovery efforts. As Florida braces for a potential disaster, tensions between state and federal officials are running high amid accusations of political gamesmanship.
