“F–k Ron DeSantis! F–k fascism and leadership with love!” Frost shouted into the microphone, raising his hand skyward.

Frost, 26, refused to take back the insults that followed the show.

The incoming congressman has criticized the governor of the Sunshine State before. In March, he claimed DeSantis was a fascist because of his policies targeting gay people and other groups during an appearance on CNN.
“We have to call it what it is,” he said of DeSantis. He abuses his power and uses the state to target political opponents and enemies. And there is a word for that, which is fascism, and we have to be honest about it.”

“If you vote for Ron DeSantis, you’re dead to me,” she told fans during her performance.
