Even tRump now calls him "DeSanctus". DeSatan to announce his run for the presidency real soon. Shows how low the Republicons have become when they run two idiots like these for the White Wash House. The idiot is running on his record "protecting" people from trans rights and for burning books in school rooms and colleges.

Pathetic. Utterly pathetic.

Bigoted bassturd hates diversity. Good thing (for him) that the immigration door was open to his family when they fled Italy. Imagine if Ellis island decided that we did not need diversity when they immigrated. How lucky they were that the government did not practice discrimination against worthless scumbunnies like him.

The time the residents of FL wake up and see he’s plundering their futures to elevate himself out of the seat to somewhere better he will be gone.

Thousands of jobs lost to DeathSentence.

Anyone here all set to vote for him?

I will say rounding from $864mm to $1Bn is really pushing it within the narrative but doesn’t change the massive nine figure capex plus lost relocated white collar earners and ongoing O&M.

Small picking but feel like pushing it that much is at worst lazy and may dilute the message to some (who maybe aren’t listening anyways)

The extra-curricular activities of DeSantis' "Bonus" cops. What $14 million will buy you when recruiting out of state cops for Florida.

DeSatan's land of "freedom":

Rick Scott issued a travel advisory for Socialists to avoid Florida

Guess he's not interested in all that federal hurricane and disaster aid. He should put his money where his mouth is.

Wanna take a stab at which government owned and operated socialist University he attended for his undergrad?

But sure, socialism is bad, Rick.

DeSaster formally announces he is running for the White Wash House.


Soon we will see angry debates between the AntiChrist who calls himself Chosen vs DeSatan. I'm sure none of us will want to miss any of this.

Interesting how adverse selection is working in our society today.

Ron DeSantis is now having members of his administration … all Florida state employees paid through Florida taxpayers … solicit campaign donations from lobbyists who may have business before his administration. How is that any different from soliciting bribes?

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Officials who work for Gov. Ron DeSantis' administration — not his campaign — have been sending text messages to Florida lobbyists soliciting political contributions for DeSantis' presidential bid, a breach of traditional norms that has raised ethical and legal questions and left many here in the state capital shocked.

NBC News reviewed text messages from four DeSantis administration officials, including those directly in the governor's office and with leadership positions in state agencies. They requested the recipient of the message contribute to the governor’s campaign through a specific link that appeared to track who is giving as part of a “bundle” program.

More Trump. More corruption. More swamp.

Our Republican posters have been insisting that Trump and TrumpThinking is leaving the party.

I frankly don't believe them. They'll cheer or ignore this stuff, but they'll be all over Hunter Biden's obvious corruption.

Rinse. Repeat. Nothing will change. The working class will fall further behind. That's where I'm putting my money.....

You still don't know what socialism is, after all these years. You and your crew STILL think it means "stuff you get for free".

Nope. Use. A. Dictionary.

Government owned & Government operated entity. That's it. That's socialism.


Pick a different word for what you actually mean. Use a dictionary.

What you REALLY mean is "freeloader": a person who takes advantage of others' generosity without giving anything in return.



As for his "scholarship" Where do you think that money came from? They sky? Missouri oak trees? That's STILL a burden on taxpayers.

And he, like you, was educated by Government Teachers. That's socialism, my man. Not my fault your crew has demonized the institution that set you up for life. I think it's great. I think your education is great.

I was not aware that Yale & Harvard were Government owned & Government operated, or that their faculties were Government employees.

DeSantis saw Harvard and Yale degrees as 'scarlet letters' when running for office: book
by Kimberly Leonard, Feb 27, 2023

DeSantis worried when running for Congress that his Ivy league degrees would work against him.
He went to Yale and Harvard, but said he felt out of place.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' father told The New Yorker last year that his son getting into Yale University for college was "still the thing I'm most proud of."
But DeSantis is far less fawning about his Ivy League education in his forthcoming book, "The Courage to Be Free: Florida's Blueprint for America's Revival," writing that he thought it might prevent him from getting elected to Congress in 2012. The teachings at Yale, he said, held "hostility to the Almighty and disparagement of America."

DeSantis was in his early 30s when he first ran for office. He had been in the Navy after attending Yale and then Harvard Law School, and was concerned voters would be suspicious of his "elite" educational background, he wrote.

"I viewed having earned degrees from Yale and Harvard Law School to be political scarlet letters as far as a GOP primary went," DeSantis wrote in the book. "The voters valued education and probably assumed that I was a smart guy, but those 'elite' universities had become so synonymous with leftist ideology and a ruling class mentality that most grassroots conservatives were understandably skeptical of those institutions."

In his book, DeSantis credits his extensive door knocking with wife Casey DeSantis for helping him win in a crowded primary. He does not mention that multiple top, well-known Republicans also endorsed him, as Insider previously reported.

He defended his educational background by arguing that if he was able to become more conservative while seeking higher ed degrees then he would also be able resist the pressures of Washington, DC, too.

"I am one of very few people who went through both Yale and Harvard Law School and came out more conservative than when I went in," DeSantis said. "If I could withstand seven years of indoctrination in the Ivy League, then I will be able to survive Washington, DC without going native."

The admission from DeSantis helps to shed light into how his background affected his policies. DeSantis has made a name for himself in part by going up against major educational institutions, including colleges, and dictating what they can and cannot teach on issues from race to gender. He's widely expected to mount a presidential run in 2024.

During an interview that aired Sunday with Fox News' Mark Levin, DeSantis admitted he felt like a "fish out of water" when he arrived at Yale. He shared that he arrived on campus wearing flip flops and jean shorts.

"I didn't even know colleges were liberal," DeSantis said, describing his first day on campus as a "major culture shock."

In his book he described being surrounded by students who attended prep schools and had rich parents. In contrast, DeSantis paid his own way through school including through working at an electric company, parking cars at events, recycling trash, moving furniture, and coaching baseball, he wrote.

Nevertheless, DeSantis would go on to attend another Ivy league to get his law degree. DeSantis provides few details of his time in law school in his book. While traversing Florida as governor, he often extols the virtues of going to a trade school.

DeSantis grew up in the small, gulf-side town of Dunedin, Florida, near Tampa. The town isn't particularly conservative, Insider reported, but DeSantis said his home life shaped his political ideology.

"My father's from western Pennsylvania, my mother's from Northeastern Ohio," he told Levin. "So that is like steel country. That is like blue collar salt of the earth and, as you know Mark, Florida's very eclectic. People kind of come from all over, we do have a culture and so I grew up in that culture, but really it was kind of those Rust Belt values that raised me."

A. That's HIS claim. You, naturally believe anyone you like without question. Trump said he was a self made man, too.

B. Good for him!

C. This has NOTHING to do with Socialism.

D. You STILL haven't commented on DeSantis making Florida's government bigger than ever just two weeks ago. And this includes BOTH socialism, AND handouts.

You don't care. You LOVE handouts, so long as they come at the hand of anyone with a R by their name.


Or do you think all the people in Rural America are self sufficient, and none of them are freeloaders?

Call me when your team cuts spending. You weren't born the last time a Republican President cut spending and the handouts you pretend to despise...I have NO IDEA why you keep falling for this.

When DeSantis wins? I"ll be on hand, once again, to make wagers with you that you never take. Because in your heart, you know full well these guys are full of it. They love socialism and handouts MORE than the Dems do.
