Several Democratic and Republican groups and campaigns are capitalizing on the FBI's raid of Mar-a-Lago to fundraise ahead of the November midterm elections.

In Florida, incumbent GOP Gov. Ron DeSantis, who is running for re-election to represent the Sunshine State, and one of his leading Democratic challengers, Florida Agricultural Commissioner Nikki Fried, both capitalized on the raid for fundraising efforts with two different positions.
"The FBI's raid of Mar-a-Lago is yet another escalation in the weaponization of federal agencies against the Regime's political opponents, while people like Hunter Biden get treated with kid gloves," DeSantis wrote in a campaign email sent to supporters on Tuesday. "The federal Regime is targeting those it dislikes for disfavored treatment. They are demanding we get in line or face the consequences."
