Hillsborough County Sherrif Chad Chronister, a COVID-19 mandate enforcer, has withdrawn his name from nomination as head of the Drug Enforcement Agency.  Chronister announces via Twitter:

Many people are wondering who recommended him to President-elect Donald Trump (possible hint below).  No one is certain, but the withdrawal is a positive sign.  This guy was one of the worst sheriffs in Florida for COVID-19 enforcement, and leans left under the mask of leaning right.

For President Trump this withdrawal is a slight hiccup, and he will likely not be happy with the person who recommended the nomination.

“Over the past several days, as the gravity of this very important responsibility set in, I’ve concluded that I must respectfully withdraw from consideration. There is more work to be done for the citizens of Hillsborough County and a lot of initiatives I am committed to fulfilling. I sincerely appreciate the nomination, outpouring of support by the American people, and look forward to continuing my service as Sheriff of Hillsborough County.”
