FL: AG Makes $100K Per Year for Two Hrs Work a Week

Within months of Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis handpicking him as Florida's new attorney general last winter, James Uthmeier landed a lucrative side gig: a $100,000-a-year teaching assignment at University of Florida's law school for just two hours of instruction per week.

"The former aide to Ron DeSatan is the highest-paid adjunct professor at UF's Levin College of Law in at least a quarter century, according to compensation records dating back to 1997. His salary is eight times higher than what the median law school adjunct earns, and comes as the DeSantis administration leans on Florida's 40 public universities and colleges to justify their spending practices.

Combined with his attorney general paycheck, the under-whelming James Uthmeier's teaching stipend at this spectacular sinecure pushes his total state-funded salary to $240,000 " nearly $100,000 more than the governor's annual pay.

In his first year as attorney general, good-for-nothing Uthmeier has focused heavily on headline-grabbing lawsuits targeting corporate diversity programs and LGBTQ+ initiatives. Among them are cases accusing Starbucks of unlawful race-based hiring practices and alleging Target violated federal law through what his office described as "radical LGBTQ+ activism."

Florida is also the national leader in capital punishment and has been for decades. The Sunshine State houses the largest death row population in the country for states that continue executions. In recent years, Florida has consistently imposed the highest number of death sentences in the country. Ron DeSatan also wants more ICE gulags built in Florida. The Sunstate State has the some of the weakest gun laws in the US. In an average year, 3,172 people die and 6,358 are wounded by guns in Florida, like a warzone without a foreign enemy.
