What's happening in DeSantistan 2.0

Drag ban enjoined

 

I especially liked this part:

"Presnell also said the law clashes with another DeSantis priority — the “Parents’ Bill of Rights” — because it allows the state to decide what performances children can attend, rather than leaving that choice up to parents. He added that existing obscenity laws already protect children from “any constitutionally unprotected obscene exhibitions or shows.”

 

That’s the “Big Liberal city bad” argument. It’s code. Apparently ignoring the Oxy problem and higher crime rates all through red America. Everything this guy does is to galvanize the base of white bigots who predominate in the GOP. It is plain from his hate filled. Autocratic anti-free speech agenda. And his hate filled and illegal laws are found to be illegal, he will shift to advocacy of more extreme right wing Judges like he has appointed in Florida.

 

https://supremecourt.flcourts.gov/content/download/871540/opinion/sc2023-0247.pdf This opinion is an embarrassment and dangerous to democracy. That the courts in Florida will allow a governor to remove an elected official because of his political views is shameful. Their critique of the federal judge’s interpretation of what neglect of duty is should embarrass them. And their adoption of a “too late” doctrine that is not tethered to any recognized legal principles is weak. This is the ilk of judges he wants to appoint to the federal bench.

 

Another opinion on the Medicaid law. The decisions are starting to roll on now in DeSantis’ illegal agenda. More to come when his anti-immigration laws are stuck down as violative of supremacy and the full faith and credit laws. And there will be more. The sad part is that we are spending all this money to defend laws passed that DeSantis knows are illegal to Appeal to his base who hate this who he has targeted

 

When Trump accepted the 2016 GOP nomination, his theme was “I am your voice.” He gave voice to these people to come out of the closet. And there are a lot more of them than you want to admit. They win GOP nominations all over the country and get elected, particularly in the South and rural districts. The politicians would not engage in this behavior of their base did not believe these things. Hate, ignorance and bigotry even overcome financial interest for many of these people.

 

It was such a hack opinion, embarrassing to sign one’s name too. The current FSC goes beyond even normal FedSoc hackers. The Times exposed how silly they were. Instead of just saying the only remedy is the Senate, a defensible if harsh argument, they went on to give an extralegal opinion on the honor and impartiality of the Florida Senate asa review body for removals, which the Times noted is not supported by recent history


Not only was DeSantis’ claim not true, Hinkle wrote, “This factual issue is not close.” Warren has appealed Hinkle’s ruling.

Justices wrote that Warren still has one option for reinstatement: going to the Florida Senate for a trial.
“There is no reason to doubt that the elected members comprising that legislative body will ‘be just’ in carrying out their ‘solemn duty,’” justices wrote.

Republicans have a supermajority in the Senate, a body that has bent to DeSantis’ will since he took office in 2019.
That year, the Senate also took up DeSantis’ decision to suspend Broward County Sheriff Scott Israel following the Feb. 14, 2018, shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.

DeSantis laid out 10 claims against Israel, and the Senate hired an independent arbiter to hold a trial and review the governor’s claims. The special master, Dudley Goodlette, concluded the governor didn’t prove a single one. Senators, voting largely along party lines, chose to remove Israel anyway, setting an expansive new precedent in the process.

 

Maybe off-topic, in another post I said that there is no truth in Truth Social, no news in Fox News, and I would add no advocacy for freedom from the Faith and Freedom Coalition.

 

"Woke," humidity. This is fun.

 

I love San Francisco, but if any of you have contact with DeSantis, could you please find out for me what street he was on in San Francisco so I can avoid it? Thanks.

 

Warren should have sought damages in federal court. Classic 1983 free speech violation with no qualified immunity and easy proof of public policy. For saying he would not prosecute cases declared unconstitutional under the Florida constitution.

 

Florida is a right wing cesspool and it’s going to get worse

 

How did he know people were using fentanyl? Smoking crack? Did he walk up and ask 'em "hey, whatcha smokin?"

 

I drop by this thread every now and then when I need a laugh. This thread is always good for a laugh at expense of the whiny ass posters that frequent this thread.

 

Kindness? I'd settle for no overt hatred.

I guess it's the next best thing if you can't go out and find some transgender people to torment in person.

These people aren't harming you, they aren't trying to touch you, they damn sure aren't trying to groom you....they don't really impact your life one iota. If they want to have a parade once a year, stay home. But staying home isn't enough. You have to actively hate these people without even knowing them simply because they are different. Hell, they don't even walk on your lawn, but still you hate. You would have to go out and actively seek them out to even encounter one, yet you hate.

What were you like growing up to kids in school that were smaller than you, didn't wear as nice clothes as you or were provided with free lunches?

Or, maybe you were that kid and you never stopped being angry for being picked on?

 

"Former Maryland GOP Governor Larry Hogan has poured cold water on Ron DeSantis' hopes of being president, saying his campaign is one of the "worst he has ever seen" and predicting a swift end to his bid.

"Hogan said he believes DeSantis has underperformed and has essentially "dropped like a rock" in the Republican leadership race."

"DeSantis had a net approval rating of negative 19 points, with an average of 55 percent of respondents disapproving of him, compared to 36 percent who had a favorable view of the Republican."

"I think it is getting close to being over [for DeSantis]," Hogan said as he reflected on the governor's chances going forward.

Ron DeSantis campaign 'close to being over'—Ex-GOP governor

The more sensible people get to know Ron DeSantis, the less they like him.

 

internet wanna be tough guy.
