Florida Politician Charged with Abuse
This man didn't just sign an antisemitism bill for the state of
Florida while he was in Israel, but according to arrest records,
he also urinated in his grandson's mouth while on
a family cruise. This disgusting fuck is Mike
Caruso. In two thousand twenty-three, Caruso
co-sponsored HB two six nine, the hate crime
bill Florida passed to crack down on what it calls
antisemitism. Governor DeSantis flew to Jerusalem and
signed it at the Museum of Tolerance with Caruso right by
his side. The same man years later is charged with
kidnapping, molesting, and forced oral sex on his
own grandson under the age of twelve.
Police say the abuse started on a fishing trip, and it
continued at Thanksgiving with a game he called Tickle
Monster. Then on a Royal Caribbean cruise he
bought for the whole family, he pulled the boy away from his
parents with the excuse of buying an ice cream, and
instead forced the child to perform oral sex
and, per the affidavit, urinated in his mouth.
This is the man Florida Republicans trusted with public
office. This is the man they stood next to in
Israel to pass a law to control what you can
say. And when the charges came down in August
of twenty
twenty-six, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis
suspended him. But the antisemitism bill that
he helped pass is still on the books.
