Gov. Ron DeSantis Recalls ‘ISIS-Inspired Terrorist Attack’ on Orlando Pulse

Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) marked the third anniversary of the heinous Orlando Pulse shooting by noting it was an “ISIS-inspired terrorist attack.”

DeSantis did this via a tweet, in which he also ordered flags throughout the state to be flown at half-mast:

On November 1, 2016–just months after the attack on Orlando Pulse–Breitbart News reported on 911 calls in which the Pulse attacker pledged allegiance to ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.

The attacker called 911, identified himself, and added, “I want you to know I’m in Orlando, and I did the shooting.”

The operator asked his name again and the attacker responded, “My name is, ‘I pledge of Allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi of the Islamic State.’”
