Along with his announcement, DeSantis is expected to file paperwork with the Federal Election Commission, which officially launches his GOP presidential campaign. His first national TV interview since the announcement will be with Fox News’ Trey Gowdy Wednesday at 8 p.m. ET on “Fox News Tonight.”

[Smart move, in multiple ways. Trump isn’t engaging on Twitter, preferring to remain on his own Truth Social platform. DeSantis will dominate Twitter as a result, at least for the first day or days. Partnering with Elon Musk has its own cachet. This also allows DeSantis to speak over the heads of the media and their filters by going direct to as many people as want to tune in to the Spaces conversation — and there will likely be hundreds of thousands doing so, if not millions. — Ed]
