Just as Gov. DeSantis sought to play down Florida's COVID-19 death toll before the election, someone in the Capitol leaked secret records to a blogger. “I walked in and she’s just looking at them in one of the rooms," said the gov's spox. https://miamiherald.com/news/coronavirus/article246987122.html… w/ @conarck

Hire people not qualified for the job and all they know to do is say yes to the boss for fear of being found out or fired from a cushy job. This is how they've been able to get people who will fold to their demands because of low self-esteem and their dirty little secret.
