Florida Governor Ron DeSantis received a $50,000 donation from the Orlando Magic, a NBA franchise, through the pro-DeSantis super PAC Never Back Down. While the donation does not directly mention the DeVos family, who owns the team, it highlights the longstanding alliance between the family and DeSantis. The DeVos family has supported DeSantis since his first run for governor and shares his conservative education policy views. DeSantis has been campaigning on his efforts to reform Florida’s public education system and eliminate “wokeness.” The donation from the Orlando Magic was made in support of DeSantis as governor of Florida, according to the team’s spokesman. The DeVos family’s involvement in education funding and school choice aligns closely with DeSantis’ policies. Despite the donation to DeSantis, a spokesman for the DeVos family stated that they are undecided and uncommitted in the 2024 presidential race. Trump still leads the Republican primary field by a significant margin, although the donation suggests that the DeVos family may not support Trump in the upcoming election. The recording of a virtual town hall featuring Betsy DeVos and DeSantis further demonstrates their alignment on education policy, with both advocating for empowering families and opposing liberal indoctrination in schools. The DeVos family owns the Orlando Magic, and Betsy DeVos has financial ties to the team through her investments. It is worth noting that the family’s distancing from Trump was evident in Betsy DeVos’ resignation letter, where she blamed Trump for the Capitol Hill riot. Overall, the donation from the Orlando Magic sheds light on the close alliance between the DeVos family and DeSantis and their shared vision for conservative education policy.
