Well… we know how far the idiot desantis has fallen in Florida when he refused to take Kamala Harris’s call to try to plan disaster response to hurricane Milton that is going to slam into the state Thursday…just to be a pissy little shit, this moron is going to get people killed and cause the recovery to be slower than it needs to be…and that tells you all you need to know about the maga assholes now in charge of the repub party…petty little fools like desantis and the idiot trump who has spent the past week lying about the administration’s response to Helene even when the repub governor of NC stated that he was in constant contact with the WH and they were doing everything possible to help the people in the south who were affected by the storms…and Joe Biden has ignored desantis and has poured FEMA personnel and equipment into Florida to pre stage and be ready to get to work after the storm hits…this is the modern repub party, folks…their hatred of good government lets them kill their own voters just to make the point that government doesn’t work while they are the ones making sure it doesn’t…if this storm is a s bad as it looks, the damage is going to be the most of any hurricane in history…and yet desantis twiddles his thumbs and sues newspapers for running ads supporting the abortion rights amendment that is on the ballot…that is maga in a nutshell…geez…

This made me laugh…
Well…just read an article where the author described what desantis is doing to Florida is “Brexiting” the state…okay you may not know what Brexit is…it’s the vote that England mad to leave the European Union since the liars that were pushing it said they would be better off economically if they left…didn’t work out that way with no growth and high unemployment along with shortages of food and medicine…and the almost collapse of the National Health Service…along with all of the labor from the EU that left and that the British don’t want to do…so, in Florida higher education is collapsing since desantis has put so many restrictions on what can be taught and how it can be taught…an all of the undocumented workers are leaving the state since they can be charged with a felony if they stay…leaving produce rotting in the fields…and now there is a huge Malaria outbreak that is going to get worse since desantis fired all the competent people in public health and replaced them with his anti vax toadies…the comment was so on the nose since both brexit and Florida’s problems were caused by ideological assholes lying about the effect would be when they knew it wouldn’t be good…geez…
Ronnie, you’re done…
Well…as you know, ron desantis, the governor of Florida has announced he’s running for president for some reason but the latest polls that came out today basically say that everyone hates him…and only 34% of the people in Florida approve of the job he’s doing….and very few of them even want him to run…so how is he going to muster up the support to beat anyone in the primary, let alone the general election? He’s not…it’s that simple…just another delusional repub thinking that all you have to do is hate the right people the right amount and everyone will just ignore how badly he and his cronies have screwed up Florida…yeah, that’s not going to happen…and his stiff, wooden demeanor and thin skin are going to reveal the true ronnie…and no one wants that…geez…
Nice job Desantis…
Well…I guess when you codify your hatred of immigrants, it’s not such a good thing for your economy…after Ron DeSantis and his cronies in the Florida legislature passed a law to make being an undocumented person illegal in Florida…a felony…so guess what happened? Yep…most of them have left Florida and the economy is taking a dump…and the repubs have started begging the ones who are left to stay and the they aren’t going to enforce the law…and the reaction of approximately 80% of the construction workforce and nearly 100% of the farmworkers is to say goodbye and get the hell out of dodge…and the Hispanic truckers are refusing to take loads into or out of Florida even if they’re not undocumented….essentially every project to build homes and office buildings or anything else has stopped and food is rotting in the fields…and it is all because of repub hate for the people who do a lot of the work in the country and who work so damn hard at the worst jobs…and they are the worst jobs because repubs make them that way to line their pockets…and now desantis wants to make the entire US like Florida? Not going to happen…people that understand that undocumented workers work their asses off are putting ads in Spanish language media inviting them to Georgia, NC, and other agricultural states that need workers since they understand their value…you did this to yourself Florida…and it’s delicious…geez..
The Mouse wins…
Well…I guess ole desantis thought he could bully the mouse in Florida after they objected to his “don’t say gay law” that prohibited any mention of the LGBTQ community in schools down there…and he loaded the board that ran the area that Disney is located on with his cronies and they were going to punish Disney by taking control of development in the Disney owned properties away from them…but, he didn’t figure that Disney would have a plan to thwart that bullshit, and they did by having the board still controlled by Disney vote to give all the power and control to the Disney corporation in perpetuity…leaving the desantis board with nothing to do but take care of the roads and sewers…and now the whining and threats start but do you think a corporation with the deep pockets like Disney doesn’t have the best lawyers in the biz while desantis has the second string repub lawyers who only know how to whine? And whine they are…and it make me laugh…it just shows how out of his league desantis is…and it make me smile that he got slapped down…geez…
These are modern repubs, folks…
Well….if you want to see some real fascist bullshit folks…just look what’s going on across the red states…the thing I wanted to talk about was the incident in Florida on Friday when a school principal was fired for showing a picture of Michelangelo’s “David” to his school…and do you want to know the reason why? Because desantis thinks this masterpiece is pornographic because it shows genitals…so, in addition to banning books and sex education in Florida, they are now banning anything do with the human form…now are they going to ban anyone saying penis or vagina? This is how fascists work folks…the party of “freedom” is now using the government in red states to control what people are allowed to read, hear, and see…and they are trying to limit women from traveling and have already imposed a dress code only on women in the Florida legislature…does this sound familiar? Yeah…sure sounds like the Taliban to me…geez…
Ian…
Well…with the reports coming out this morning from sheriffs in the Ft. Meyers area of hundreds dead from hurricane Ian…and I hope that’s not the case…I think there are a couple of reasons why people didn’t heed the warnings and evacuate…first, and I’ve written about this before, is the fact that almost 60% of the people in this country can’t cover an unexpected emergency of 400 bucks since they don’t have money in the bank for it…and, with a 3 day evacuation costing upwards of 2 grand for the travel and housing, they just couldn’t afford to leave and that is on us in the US…we should be able to take care of our fellow citizens if only the asshole governor of Florida, DeSantis, didn’t spend money on political stunts and actually cared about governing instead of his culture war bullshit that he is focused on…and the other reason is that the right wing has done a really good job of teaching people to not trust the government…so when even the president comes on tv and pleads with people to evacuate, they think it’s some kind of conspiracy and reflexively won’t believe him since the “libs lie all the time…look at covid” conspiracy that has been pushed and pushed on fox news over the past week…so we have the perfect storm of people wanting to leave but can’t afford it and people who won’t leave because fox news taught them not to trust the government…and the result is hundreds dead…I truly hope that’s not true but with many coastal cities under 9-12 feet of storm surge, I fear that the worst is yet to come….and I feel for Floridians no matter what their politics….
Corporations are no longer people, my friends, in Florida…
Well…the fascism is starting to be all too clear in Florida after the governor pushed his toadies in the legislature to pass a law that revoked Disney’s special status that allowed them to run their parks as independent governmental units there…and they wrote it so narrowly that it can only apply to Disney as retaliation for their opposition of the Florida “don’t say gay” law that was pushed by DeSantis as a blatant attack on the LGBTQ community. So, I guess that corporations are no longer people, to quote Mitt Romney, in Florida and no longer have free speech rights without fear of retaliation by the government…and that is the description of fascism that the repubs all across this country are embracing not only for corporations but for individuals, too…starting with teachers, librarians and parents…or anyone who opposes fascism and the repubs attacks on our democracy. the one thing I can’t understand is why Disney hasn’t filed a multi billion dollar lawsuit against DeSantis and Florida for this blatantly unconstitutional attack on their rights? The only way to stop this crap is to punch the bastards in the face when they try this crap…and the fact that this attack on Disney that is going to cost Florida taxpayers billions won’t make a damn bit of difference is the problem that we are going to face in the next election….the red states just don’t care if what their leaders do hurt them…I think they like to be hurt since it reinforces their adherence to the cult and their hatred of anyone who is not white and straight and repub….geez…
Come over to our side…
Well…I wonder when business is going to get a damn clue that the repubs are not the party of business anymore? After Disney objected to the hatred that DeSantis and his cronies in Florida passed in the “don’t say gay” bill that the Florida idiot signed last week, almost every damn repub across the country along with all of the personalities on fox news have started to threaten Disney and almost every damn business they don’t like with retaliation for them speaking out against the hate. Now, it’s always been okay for business to keep the cash flowing to the repubs and it is perfectly fine with them if they support their racist, homophobic hate, but if they do anything to be inclusive and to say that “hey, maybe it’s not a good idea to hate on Americans”…that is the last straw and the fascists in the repub party threaten to ruin them. So, I have suggestion for business in this country…come over to our side where we don’t retaliate against opinions that differ from ours…now, I will say that hate, homophobia, misogyny, and criminal behavior is not acceptable to us, but we will listen and try to make the US a better place for all Americans…not just the white, straight ones that the repubs think are the only people that deserve to live their lives…and guess what? I’ll bet a lot of these people are your customers or are like me who is and old white, straight guy who thinks that everyone should have the same rights to aspire to happiness…not just the chosen few that the repubs favor…and it’s a lot easier over here…no crazies spouting Q bullshit all day….so, come on over…the water’s fine….
DeSantis disappears…
Well…amid the largest surge in cases in Florida since the covid pandemic began, the governor, Ron DeSantis seems to have disappeared…he has not been seen in public since the 17th of December and has not talked to anyone in that time either and has done nothing to help the people of Florida weather the storm of omicron…okay, that was probably his plan anyway since he has done nothing up to this point but outlaw the mask and vaccine mandates that we all know work…so what would he be doing? I’ll bet when the news comes out where he’s been, he is recovering from his own case of covid (or not, that would serve him right) and he will go on to lie that it is “just the flu” and nothing needs to be done other than be a big, manly repub and you’ll be fine…while omicron burns through his state and kills even more of his voters…repubs really are a death cult…geez…
