Florida Republican running for re-election snags presidential endorsement — from Colombia

Rep. María Elvira Salazar , R-Fla., who faces a tightening race in her heavily Hispanic congressional district, picked up a presidential endorsement Monday — but not from the Oval Office occupant.
Colombia’s president, the Trump-allied Abelardo de la Espriella, called Salazar “Colombia’s best friend in U.S. Congress” in a Spanish-language video Salazar posted on X .
De la Espriella, a Colombian-American citizen who owns property in Salazar’s district, and his wife have donated nearly $90,000 to Salazar in the past.
