| 0:00.0 | Good evening, everyone. I'm Allison Camerata. Welcome to a special holiday edition of CNN |
| 0:13.0 | Tonight on this President's Day. One man who seems to want that job, Governor Ron |
| 0:17.8 | DeSantis, taking his war on woke show on the road today. He's going to blue states and |
| 0:23.8 | offering police officers money to move to Florida. One person who really does not like |
| 0:29.6 | what DeSantis is selling, Donald Trump. And Congressman George Santos gives a revealing |
| 0:35.2 | interview tonight in which he attempts to explain his litany of laws. He says it's not |

| 1:46.3 | officially said that yet. So he's going to blue states, New York, Illinois, Pennsylvania. |
| 1:52.3 | We've got to fill it all for you. So blue city. And he's doing something I think quite |
| 1:56.5 | crafty. He's offering $5,000 to police officers to move to Florida where he says they're |
