Rep. Charlie Crist (D-St. Petersburg) asked the U.S. Department of Justice to investigate whether Gov. Ron DeSantis violated federal law when he opened a pop-up vaccine distribution site available exclusively to residents in two of Manatee County's wealthiest zip codes.

Why it matters: The former governor sent a letter to acting U.S. Attorney General Monty Wilkinson on Sunday, complaining that DeSantis is selectively creating vaccine distribution sites "to benefit political allies and donors, over the needs of higher risk communities and existing county waitlists."

• Background: Charges of favoritism were widespread last week after the Bradenton Herald reported that a county commissioner worked secretly with DeSantis' office to make 3,000 vaccinations available to residents in the wealthy, mostly-white neighborhood of Lakewood Ranch.
• The developer of Lakewood Ranch donated to DeSantis' political campaign.

What they're saying: The writer Stephen King, a Sarasota resident, blasted the governor, tweeting: "It seems possible — likely, even — that Ron DeSantis provided rich, Republican-leaning communities like Lakewood Ranch with priority vaccinations for political gain."

Flashback: DeSantis defended his decision during a press conference at the start of the three-day distribution event last week.

• "If Manatee County doesn’t like us doing this, then we are totally fine putting this in counties that want it," DeSantis said.

But, but, but: "Given the enormous latitude governors have over vaccine distribution," Crist wrote in his letter, "it would be unconscionable for political corruption to trump both fairness and the best medical guidance. These are literally life and death decisions."

• Crist's office told Axios on Monday that the congressman has not heard back from Wilkinson.

Crowding in bars and shoving dollars at drag queens are on hiatus during the pandemic, but the super queens of RuPaul’s Drag Race are here to save the day.

Drive ‘N Drag (exactly what it sounds like: a drive-in drag show) just kicked off its first superhero-themed show in Atlanta last weekend and heads to Westfield Brandon this weekend.

Before she goes green for her SheHulk performance, Kameron Michaels told us how she’s getting through the quarantine blues.

👩🏻‍🍳 What’s keeping her sane:

"Any time I've been at home for more than two to three weeks I get really antsy. The pandemic has been really really bad and really hard for me. In quarantine, I picked up learning to cook for myself because it wasn’t something I had time to do [before]."

🍪 Recipes in her repertoire:

"Baked nachos is one of my new favorites. I’m obsessed with crispy brussels sprouts … I’ve learned how to make some really awesome, well, I’ve called them ‘kitchen sink cookies.’ It’s like whatever I have in my cabinet. So it's like three different kinds of chocolate and pretzels and walnuts and throwing them all in the cookie mix."

• "This is really the only TikTok food-ish account I follow ... but mainly because he’s cute."

📺 What she’s binging:

Horror movies on Netflix and Amazon Prime, like "The Lie," "He’s Out There," and "Midsommar."

🤔 What she’s curious about in Tampa Bay: Ybor. "When I went it was a Wednesday night. I didn’t get to experience the full busy gay nightlife so I’ll have to make it back on a weekend."

💬 Parting words:

"I want [fans] to know we are so thankful ... we’re performers. And I’m a Leo, so I love attention. I need those moments. I need the stage presence. I need to be in the spotlight. So thank you to everybody who's coming."

Graydon Young, 54, of Englewood in Sarasota County was one of six alleged members of the Florida chapter of Oath Keepers indicted for storming into the Capitol on Jan. 6, the U.S. Department of Justice announced Monday.

• The six have been charged with conspiring to obstruct the U.S. Congress’ certification of the 2020 U.S. presidential election result, among other charges.
• Young was also charged for destroying evidence, officials said, because he deleted his Facebook account after the riot.
• He is accused of arranging to get firearms and combat training from a Florida company for himself and others, authorities said.

When the Bucs went 7-9 in 2019 with Jameis Winston at the helm, coach Bruce Arians believed his team was a good QB away from a Super Bowl win.

🏆 In came Tom Brady, and the next thing we knew he was hurling the Lombardi Trophy across the Hillsborough River.

Now everyone wants a new quarterback, the Tampa Bay Times' Rick Stroud reports. He calls it "the Tom Brady effect."

• The Rams traded Jared Goff and some draft picks to the Lions for QB Matthew Stafford.
• The Eagles sent Carson Wentz to the Colts.
• The Bears are hoping to replace Mitchell Trubisky.

In fact, of all the QBs drafted in the first round from 2009 to 2016, none are currently with the teams that selected them.
