“You would expect there to be subpoenas if there was any suspect of classified information — requesting documents — as has been done in these similar cases, not 30 FBI agents rushing in on a search warrant,” Moody told Fox News. “It is certainly unusual. And I tell you what, the charges, if there are any the allegations, this better be a rock solid case to wreck whatever respect there is right now for the FBI.” Credit: Screengrab via Fla.

On Thursday morning, Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody opened the state’s price-gouging hotline, a resource for people who find themselves confronting unusually high prices like $22 cases of bottled water.

Citing Florida Statute 501.160, Moody said, “During a declared state of emergency, it is unlawful, subject to certain conditions, to sell essential commodities for an amount that grossly exceeds the average price 30 days before declaration.”

“Floridians in the projected path of Hurricane Dorian can report price gouging to the Florida Attorney General’s Office by calling (866) 9NO-SCAM or by downloading the reporting app NO SCAM.”
