REUTERS/Evelyn Hockstein Acquire Licensing RightsWASHINGTON, Nov 5 (Reuters) - Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds will endorse Florida Governor Ron DeSantis's bid to be the Republican nominee in the 2024 presidential race on Monday, according to a source familiar with the matter. An endorsement from Reynolds could be a critical boost for DeSantis, who has fallen far behind former President Donald Trump in the race for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination. The DeSantis campaign and Reynolds's office did not respond to requests for comment. Reynolds will appear at a DeSantis rally in Des Moines, Iowa, on Monday at 6 p.m.

REUTERS/Daniel Becerril Acquire Licensing RightsEAGLE PASS, Texas, Sept 28 (Reuters) - Billionaire Elon Musk waded into the U.S. immigration debate on Thursday, paying a visit to the Texas border with Mexico to meet with local politicians and law enforcement and obtain what he called an "unfiltered" view of the situation. The sharp increase, notably around San Diego, California, and the Texas border towns of El Paso and Eagle Pass, follows an earlier lull in unauthorized border crossings following a new asylum policy imposed by Democratic President Joe Biden's administration to discourage such activity. Musk, a native of South Africa, noted his own status as an "immigrant to the United States" and called himself "extremely pro-immigrant." In the 4-minute video clip, he introduced U.S. Representative Tony Gonzales, a Republican from Texas whose district spans more than 800 miles of the border, who welcomed Musk and said people along the Texas border "really feel abandoned."

Twitter's new "X" logo was projected over its San Francisco headquarters two hours after midnight. Some of Musk's other big product launches have been riddled with misfires and blunders. In a strange nocturnal display, Twitter's new logo lit up the facade of the company's San Francisco headquarters a few hours after midnight. At around 2 a.m. EST on Monday, Twitter CEO Linda Yaccarino gave the world the new X logo: "Lights. Shortly after the imagery was splashed on the building's facade, Twitter user @nearcyan posted a picture appearing to show people gathered outside the headquarters.

"Trump should fight Democrats, not lie about Governor DeSantis," the ad stated. Never Back Down, the Super PAC backing DeSantis, released the ad titled "Fight Democrats, not Republicans" online and on "Fox News Sunday." Make American Great Again, the major Super PAC aligned with Trump, has already attacked DeSantis in ads. "Tell Ron DeSantis to keep his pudding fingers off our money." A Reuters/Ipsos poll in early April showed 48% of Republicans saying they want Trump to be their party's presidential nominee in 2024, with 19% supporting DeSantis.
April 11 (Reuters) - Florida Governor Ron DeSantis's newly formed oversight board is seeking to assert control over development in two cities where Walt Disney World Resort is located, the latest twist in a battle for authority over the company's Florida theme parks. A resolution, seen on Tuesday by Reuters, would give the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District board the power to review and evaluate development in the 25,000-square acres of property in and around Walt Disney Co's (DIS.N) theme parks. The district would hold "superior authority and control" over planning, zoning and other land use in the cities of Bay Lake and Lake Buena Vista, under a Florida law that formed the state-appointed oversight board. A spokesperson for Lake Buena Vista and Bay Lake did not respond to Reuters' request for comment. A spokesperson for the oversight board referred inquiries to an attorney, who was not immediately available for comment.
Ron DeSantis in a new book calls for politicians to suppress the influence of "woke capital" and activist corporations, in part by "crippling" the socially conscious investing movement known as ESG. DeSantis' book tears into ESG in multiple chapters, while invoking the politically loaded and nebulous term "woke" nearly four dozen times. ESG is one way in which "woke capital exerts a pernicious influence on society," DeSantis argued in the book. DeSantis' book also details his fights with entertainment giant Disney, whose Disney World park in Orlando has long provided an important revenue stream for the state. Whether DeSantis makes ESG a campaign priority or not, the issue will continue to draw controversy on Capitol Hill.
