This initiative, according to Forbes, is designed to foster student advocacy for American values, freedom, free enterprise, and limited government, with DeSantis promising that no discrimination will be tolerated when students seek to form these clubs. He emphasized that any interference from schools or districts would be met with strong pushback at the state level.At the same Sarasota press conference, DeSantis revealed a major new component to the Florida Civics and Debate Initiative. The upcoming State Championship—set for April 5, 2026, at New College of Florida—will feature the newly-established Charlie Kirk Prize, awarding a $50,000 scholarship to the champion and a series of substantial scholarships for top competitors. According to the Florida Department of Education and CBS12, this is now among the most lucrative debate prizes in the state’s history. The scholarship has been named in memory of Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated just last month, with DeSantis noting that the awards will be sustained through generous private donations. The top debate finalists will also receive invitations to the national Ronald Reagan Presidential Debate in California.Business-wise, DeSantis has remained active in appointments, most recently naming Douglas Broxson to the Board of Governors of Florida’s State University System, as confirmed in an October 27 executive announcement. This continues his pattern of regularly shifting leadership across state agencies and educational boards.On the political front, Florida Politics reports that fresh polling from New Hampshire puts DeSantis in seventh place in early 2028 presidential prediction lists. While not a strong showing, he performs better in Maine polls.

He addressed the impact of scholarships for debate students and his collaboration with conservative youth movements on several platforms. On X and Instagram, Turning Point has amplified DeSantis’ announcements to its large base, fueling discussion about the spread of conservative clubs in schools statewide.Speculation remains about DeSantis' long-term national ambitions, but there have been no confirmed presidential campaign moves this week.
