    Don't really understand this post. DeSantis gets credit for distributing federal relief funds?

    So far as I can tell, DeSantis' position is: All this government spending is causing inflation! Here's some government money to offset inflation, please like me!

    He should have only given the money to families that didn't say mean things about his legislation.

    funny. i get the feeling if this were newsom, whittmer, even cuomo if he were still in office people here would be applauding great humanitarian efforts. but it is desantis so of course everyone hates on him, imagine if word got out he had the funds and did not do this, all hell would break loose here.

    Those states got the money too and I assume they distributed it. Did anyone come here and post about how wonderful they were? The media is trying to make DeSantis happen, and you posted an article that is basically a PR release for him.

    Why didn't those families get new jobs instead of expecting the government to save them?

    It's a Republican tradition, not unlike the Republican members of Congress who took credit for infrastructure projects in their districts even though they voted against the infrastructure bill. Waiting for a rating of "Off-topic" even though it's a perfectly valid analogy.

    Not sure whether you're serious or not but I'll play the game anyway. Funds to help offset the cost of childcare actually provide an incentive for parents of young children to get jobs although $450 would barely provide enough for a single month and realistically only two or three weeks of daycare in most cases.

    Haven't you guys been blaming inflation on the stimulus checks? So now the story is DeSantis gave out more stimulus checks to offset inflation? LOL.

    funny, if as some say that is biden stimulus money he is giving away must be biden's fault for making it available, but of course all the libs will pile on desantis saying he is encouraging inflation.

    So you’re offended with DeSantis accepting and disbursing the federal funds?

    Apparently the bar has been set so that he deserves praise for not keeping it all for himself.

    Desantis is bad regardless of what he does with a $450 check

    You’re right. It is funny. Because Newsom’s state is a net giver. So… it’s kinda like DeSantis sent out Newsom dollars. LOL

    DeSantis is a State Socialist. He takes more than he gives. ;)
