In the wake of the FBI raid on former President Trump's home at Mar-A-Logo, Trump has written to Attorney General Merrick Garland asking if there is anything he can do to help bring down the
temperature in the country and reduce what Trump calls a dangerous level of anger. Trump has just made similar comments to Fox News Digital. We'll talk about what's behind these remark from
Trump, but I also want to pose this question to our Good Morning Orlando team and to our listeners on Newsradio WFLA: Can what Trump is calling for be done, and, if so, how would you do it.
I have some ideas on this I'll share during Tuesday's show and I want to know what you think, so be ready to call us at 407-916-5400, text your ideas to 23680, or use our new Talkback feature on the
iHeartradio app !

Governor Ron DeSantis, as you'll hear, has been on the campaign trail in Arizona, giving powerful speeches on behalf of conservative Republican candidates there, and sounding more and more like
a national candidate. DeSantis managed to show support for Trump in the wake of the Mar-A-Lago raid, without ever saying the former President's name. We'll play some DeSantis sound cuts for you, and
I'll have some words of caution for our Governor on aligning himself too closely with Trump and the candidates Trump's been endorsing.

Our Central Florida File is jam packed to overflowing on Tuesday's show! Among the topics we'll be talking about:
*The latest package of additional safety measures being considered at Monday's meeting of the Orlando City Council in the wake of the recent mass shooting in the downtown bar and restaurant area.
*The arrest of Orange County Sheriff John Mina's son on DUI charges.
*Recent incidents of students being caught with guns in school, and what ought to be done with these kids.
*Florida prisons are tightening up some of the rules for visitors, and prisoner advocates don't like it. Are their complaints valid or not?
