FLORIDA! Why is your governor so weak?

He’s raising your taxes all because he’s losing a pissing contest with Mickey Mouse.

He has such little respect for you. He’s already lied to you enough about CRT, a college-level class that IS NOT being taught in elementary schools. Oh but don’t worry, he’s going to come in and save the day. 🙄 He’s going to “save the children”. Give me a break. He lied to you and you fell for it. He's laughing at you, just like trump. He doesn’t give af about you. Now he’s raising your taxes, some have estimated up to 25% without even asking you all because he’s sooo weak and fragile like a lil baby.

And what exactly did Disney do that’s worth your taxes going up 25%? Oh yeah! They spoke out against the bill. So he’s trying to censor them? I thought you guys were all for free speech. What happened? Apparently, Disney can’t have free speech in Florida. He’s not even strong enough to criticize Disney for legitimate reasons and trust me, there are plenty.

But no, he thinks you are so gullible, and many of you are, that you’re going around calling them groomers. Trying to cancel them because they’re “indoctrinating children” 🙄🙄 Once again, Ron DeSantis is not bright enough to actually criticize people, entities, or businesses on the merits. No, he has to make shit up. Just like this week, he’s canceling math books because they’re teaching CRT in math. WTF?!?!

You know, if the GOP actually had ideas, policies, and legislation that actually helped American families, they wouldn’t have to create boogeymen. Oooh but no worries, big strong Ron DeSantis is here to save the day FOR PROBLEMS THAT DON’T EXIST.

Idk Florida, maybe this is something you like. Being disrespected over and over and over again by a lying clown and having your taxes raised.

First, this will be overturned. The Supreme Court said in Hartman v. Moore (2006), “official reprisal for protected speech ‘offends the Constitution because it threatens to inhibit exercise of the protected right.’"

And it doesn't matter how the government retaliates against a person or business who expresses an opinion that the government does not like — any official retaliation against someone because they engaged in First Amendment-protected speech is unconstitutional. Disney has more money than God and DeSantis just woke a sleeping giant.

If you think this is just Florida, though, look around you. Hundreds of restrictive women's rights bills. Twice that in legislation against voting rights, education restrictions, 'fraud' bills and 1st Amendment attacks. Shadow legislation is everywhere and are looking a lot like 18th century New England to the rest of the world right now and that's because it's so widespread.

Florida is just a barometer. Everywhere, politicians are acting in their own interests and along party lines. We're easy to pick out in the crowd, but don't think we're the exception - we're the bellwether.
