Florida is going after the Democratic Socialists of America.

Attorney General James Uthmeier announced Tuesday his office has issued an investigative subpoena to the DSA over allegations of foreign funding from Cuba and China. Fox News reported the probe centers on possible foreign donations tied to DSA delegations to Cuba and China.

PJ Media noted Florida was the only highly populous Republican state that stayed solidly red in the midterms.

The DSA has not been charged with wrongdoing.

Sunshine State Report's take: Floridians who fled communism in Cuba know exactly why this matters. If foreign regimes are bankrolling American political groups, the public has a right to know.
