No matter how loud they screamed, a group of anti-Israel protesters could not disrupt Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) as he delivered a speech at the University of Florida on Wednesday about the illegal protests at college campuses.

In many ways, the incident was a microcosm of the governor’s education policy agenda in the Sunshine State: Tune out the noise and push forward. And this week, the fruits of this approach were once again vindicated as U.S. News & World Report ranked Florida as the best state in the nation for education.
