Jay Collins' Battlefield Promotion

Governor Ron DeSantis isn’t just running out the clock in Florida — he’s building a bench. From the Attorney General to the CFO to the Lieutenant Governor, this is about creating a leadership pipeline that can carry Florida’s playbook well beyond one term. Enter Jay Collins — Special Forces veteran, Purple Heart recipient, and now Florida’s #2. No theatrics. No viral meltdowns. Just steady leadership, real legislative wins, and the discipline to execute the mission. He’s proof that Florida is stacking its roster with people who can actually run the plays when the spotlight shifts. In this episode of Firing Lane, we break down how Collins earned his spot, what makes this bench so formidable, and why the swamp’s patience for fakes just ran out.
