DeSantis orders flags in Florida to fly at full-staff for Trump's inauguration

Jan. 14 (UPI) -- Gov. Ron DeSantis on Tuesday ordered U.S. and state flags across Florida to be flown at full-staff on inauguration day Monday, becoming the latest Republican-led state to do so as flags nationwide are being flown at half-staff in mourning following the death of President Jimmy Carter.

DeSantis, a Republican and staunch ally of President-elect Donald Trump, announced the order in a letter addressed to Brian Fienemann, the director of Real Estate Management and Development in Florida.
