Okay Bill, I'll byte with your "Look it up".
And here is the red flag with the "look it up":
You provided 1) no link to your source or 2) even the key words (in order) you used for your search
I used DuckDuckGo with "Florida State Guard", which lead me to floridastateguard.org
And the About reads "With a heritage dating back to WWII, Governor DeSantis reactivated the Florida State Guard in 2022 as a state-supported volunteer force providing rapid emergency response. Since the modern relaunch, the Florida State Guard’s continued growth in capability and personnel strengthens Florida’s emergency response in aviation, maritime, and land-based operations. The Florida State Guard is committed to serving Florida families in need—anytime, anywhere.
Currently, 23 states and the territory of Puerto Rico actively maintain state guards. State guards are authorized under Title 32 of the U.S. Code and operate distinctly from the National Guard. They are state-funded, responsive to the Governor and focused on the needs of their home state. The 23 states that currently maintain a state guard are Alaska, California, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, New Mexico, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, and Washington."
So is the copy regarding the 23 states in error in some way? Or does it being Florida and your "...Guv DeSanitizus... work for you because it fits a particular narrative you seek to advance?
Saving you the "Look it up" here are links for some of the other states:
