Pushaw was the subject of an article titled “DeSantis spokeswoman Christina Pushaw makes sure reporters feel the burn,” written by Farhi and published by the Post on Wednesday morning where he noted her “aggressive Twitter comments and brusque treatment of the media.”

The governor’s spokesperson recommended that frustrated members of the media “go to kickboxing and have a margarita” to vent their anger.

He wrote:
