Apparently DeSantis thinks of the state as his fiefdom!

Murdoch/putin's pet project. Ready to install in office if/when voting doesn't matter anymore.

Even more reason to make sure that DeSantis gets nowhere near the White House - ever!

Having a front row seat to this carnival barker is the most alarming political event in my lifetime. He was our absent representative in New Smyrna Beach before he ran for governor. His covid response is enough to disqualify him from any public office. Murdoch wants him to continue the oligarch's complete takeover of the world's remaining democracies. The fact that he keeps piling on the nazi shit, even though he has the Skeeter vote wrapped up, is a tell that everyone should notice. Hitler did this. desantis isn't smart enough to do any of this by himself. He is always reading from a script when in front of the microphones. If faux news is stopped desantis will be stopped. Don't hold your breath.
