Governor Ron DeSantis (R-FL) is taking another page out of Donald Trump’s playbook for his burgeoning presidential campaign: harnessing his own media echo-chamber.
DeSantis is so soft.
Florida is “doing better than” most other states.
Wonder what his definition of “better” is
“He makes news almost every day or every other day—and everyone knows that,” he told Grid. “We write fairly about him. We try to not make it about pushing his agenda.”
Goebbels couldn’t have explained it better.
“and I think that there are a lot of corporate media outlets in this country that are just dedicated to pursuing partisan narratives and trying to smear people who dissent from those narratives.”
Hard to argue with you there, Rhonda.
It’s easy to be a fascist asshole while running for the American Fascist Party’s nomination.
That pivot to running and attracting enough voters to win a general presidential election is going to look awful embarrassing when he gets all this shit thrown back in his face.
He’ll have to face the national media at some point if he gets that far. But remember, he’s the man that took on The Mouse and pretty much got steamrolled.
The GOP apparatchiks so want this guy on their ticket, but Trump’s base won’t have it.
DeSantis may be a big fish in the Floriduh pond, but he’s a petulant, fragile, whiny, little cry baby.
And when the time comes, the spray-tanned, racoon-faced clown-wig is gonna crush him like a bug.
(Rhonda better pray for a Trump indictment.)
You’re such a poet!
Because, yeah, of course.
Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam, etc., aside, not to mention NATO, the UN, and of course Ukraine, this might not go over so well with Bibi & Co., whom these redneck yahoo Xtian nationalists get along with so well.
“Fascists are inferior people who believe it when someone tells them they’re superior.
Then they want everybody else to die.”
“It would not be impossible to prove with sufficient repetition and a psychological understanding of the people concerned that a square is in fact a circle. They are mere words, and words can be molded until they clothe ideas and disguise.” ― Joseph Goebbels
Not exactly.
[Gifted article. No paywall.]
The newly appointed members of the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District include Bridget Ziegler, a vocal proponent of DeSantis’s education policies, including the Parental Rights in Education bill dubbed by critics as the “don’t say gay” law that Disney leaders opposed last year. Also named to the board: Ron Peri, who heads the Gathering USA, a Christian ministry, and three attorneys, including the president of the Federalist Society’s Orlando chapter.
This is surely going to work out very well, very well indeed. #AllTheBestPeople
My view is Disney should falsely announce it will be closing the park permanently in 2025 because it can’t operate profitably under the Central Florida Tourism Oversight District. I mean, how hysterical would it be to watch the furious backpedalling of DeSatan and his Christo-fascist henchmen? Disney would probably — miraculously! — qualify for a massive tax break.
OT but not really, a Florida Legislator has proposed a law that will require any blogger who writes about the Governor, AG or cabinet officer, and get s paid to do so, has to register with the state within 5 days of publication.
Shit’s getting real.

Goebbels couldn’t have explained orchestrated it better.
It’s not hard to beat out MS, AL, LA, WV and most other red states.
They then discussed how “successful” his administration has been, and how Florida is “doing better than” most other states.

How the heck is that anywhere close to constitutional?
How does one get to be so vomitoriously offensive? The self-loathing in him could power an aircraft carrier.
