As the Derek Chauvin case concluded today, racial tensions were expected to ensure no matter the verdict. But we got a guilty verdict and the streets remained relatively calm. However, Florida remained the center of the political world, as State Senator Shevrin Jones (D-35) stayed very active in spectating the Chauvin trial and even called State Rep. Anthony Sabatini a white supremacist
However, comments then caught up to members of the Florida legislature as Rep. Anthony Sabatini (R-32) tweeted, "mob justice," referring to the decision in the Chauvin case.
This tweet went anything but unnoticed on Twitter, as we stated, Jones was quick to call out Sabatini in a tweet, calling him a white supremacist:
👇🏾 White supremacist in 2021 wear suits and sit in the Florida legislature. Yep, I said it. https://t.co/sgIuCTOLUO

While Jones received praise from his Democrat colleagues, the Floridian reached out to Sabatini for a quote where he said in response, "Wokeism is a mental disorder and the comments of this weird leftist state senator demonstrate that perfectly."
Jones, who has since tweeted more about Sabatini and offered to The Floridian a response to Sabatini's response.
"I said what I said, and if Sabatini wants to talk to me, he knows exactly where I'm at. If he's feeling froggy, jump."
Rep. Ramon Alexander (D-8), also joined in on the fun making a meme of Sabatini calling him a "Clown."
Ribbit?
