    Here is the money quote

    DeSantis’ announcement led to confusion between the governor’s office and an Israeli diplomat in Florida. The governor’s office said it acted at the request of Israel’s consul general in Miami. But Maor Elbaz-Starinsky, the consul general, said he did not request drones, body armor, or helmets, nor had he talked to the governor about help getting weapons or ammunition through private parties.

    Did he just accidentally send weapons to Hamas posing as Israel?

    Am I tripping or should a state governor absolutely not have the power to send military equipment to foreign nations?
