The gov from the #1 state that people are fleeing from has the nerve to criticize the gov from the #1 state people are fleeing to. Yeah, that makes perfect sense.
Mildly amusing how the word fascist or fascism is slung around. People flee from fascist oppression. Just, as they fled from communist oppression, fascism’s first cousin. I’m old enough to remember seeing Hungarians fleeing from their homes. After, the failed uprising. Or, of all the ingenious ways people tried to flee east Germany. On day in winter, I walked over to the Berlin wall. Climbed up a stand to better view the area. Memorial wreaths on the west Berlin side. A hellscape on the east Berlin side. On the east side, I viewed sniper towers, runs for vicious dogs, robot machine guns, barbed wire with booby traps. Fortunately, citizens of states which are mismanaged, such as California, New York and the rest of the bright blue states. Have no such power to stop their citizens from fleeing. But, give them time…
‘Authoritarian’ Ron DeSantis’ campaign to ‘weaponize state power’ hasn’t made Florida any safer: libertarian
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ MAGA supporters have been touting his 2024 presidential campaign as the GOP’s best chance to move on from the chaos of Donald Trump while maintaining many of Trump’s policies — and even improve on them. DeSantis has been trying to convince Republican primary voters that he is tougher on crime than the former president, who has been way ahead of him in polls.But libertarian journalist/author Radley Balko, in a blistering op-ed published by The Daily Beast on June 6, emphasizes that DeSantis’ “authoritarian impulses” and efforts to “weaponize state power” have not made Florida any safer.
A second ex-Guantanamo detainee says Ron DeSantis attended brutal forced feedings
According to Adayfi, DeSantis, a Navy lawyer who told Guantanamo detainees he was there to make sure they were treated humanely, watched in amusement on more than one occasion as he was strapped to a “feeding chair” and cans of Ensure were poured into him as he screamed.
Now, Ahmed Ould Abdel Aziz, known in Guantanamo as detainee #757 during his 13-year internment there without charges, has told Florida Bulldog he repeatedly witnessed DeSantis and “the feeding people” entering cell blocks where “barbaric” force feedings were taking place.
Aziz, 53, said the forced feedings were variously attended by Navy commanders, Army colonels, and one time, even a general. “You need to understand that Ron DeSantis was almost nothing. He was a small man who is following his masters.”
Conservatives like DeSantis, Cruz and McEnany certainly drag down the high regard most people have of a Harvard degree. Joe McCarthy only had to get his degree from a university in Milwaukee to have similar “populist opinions”.
Lisa is not really good at capturing the real DeSatan, is she? Common, where are his white boots? DeSatan is the guy you want around during a bear attack. Mostly, because most of us can likely outrun him.
‘Symbols of white supremacy’: Judge refuses to end taxpayer funding for Confederate statues
