The genius that is Ron DeSantis, did the most Trumpian thing… he lost lots of other people’s money!
A document reported that the Florida state pension fund had lost $200,722,906.45 in assets invested in Russian companies. It’s also worth reporting that the state’s investments in Ukraine had also lost $20,485.77.
@Eyeatola How did I know that huge amount of money gone was going to involve the Russians, before I even read that far? Florida is even screwing over Ukraine for Russia? Should just remain that state Floridastan, at this point.
(PS - @Eyeatola's in Iran, Russia's in Afghan, er, Ukraine. Couldn't resist that.)
@Astartiel @Eyeatola It's not just Florida. Many state pension funds have this problem, because they delegate the investment decisions to Wall Street fund managers.
