The DC/New York Media Establishment is Scared to Death of Ron DeSantis and Ted Cruz
dbdailyupdate ^ | David Blackmon

How do you know when the corrupt news media is scared to death of any Republican politician? – When they start making up fake scandals about him or her.

That is of course what the corrupt hacks serving as Democrat toadies throughout our despicable national media establishment have been doing to Ron DeSantis since he became Governor of the Sunshine State in January 2019. None of them have stuck because he’s a clean guy running a clean administration, but that still does not stop the fake reporters and editors in the DC/New York media Democrat propaganda arm from trying.

PlayUnmute Fullscreen VDO.AI This week saw yet another fake scandal materialize in the media’s never-ending efforts to damage the guy they obviously consider to be among the strongest likely contenders for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination. Check out this tweet from the depraved hacks who run MSNBC:

Here’s a little snippet from that insane story:

Florida’s governor was slow to respond to the pandemic and his Covid-19 vaccine distribution plan has been marked by chaos, but critics say he’s been quick to recognize the political gold in those precious doses.

Gov. Ron DeSantis, a Republican, ignored federal guidelines and prioritized getting senior citizens — one of Florida’s most potent voting blocs — vaccinated first.

When Holocaust survivors and Cuban survivors of the Bay of Pigs debacle — revered members of two other key Florida voting blocs — got their first shots, DeSantis made sure he was there for the news conferences.

And now the governor stands accused of using the Covid-19 vaccine to reward powerful political supporters and developers by setting up pop-up vaccination sites in planned communities they developed and where GOP voters predominate.

Responding to recent criticism from both Republican and Democrats in Manatee and Charlotte counties, both south of Tampa, where one site was set up last week and another began dispensing doses on Wednesday, DeSantis said local lawmakers should be more grateful

“I’ll tell you what, I wouldn’t be complaining,” the governor said. “I’d be thankful that we are able to do it.”

[End]

So, understand what’s happening here: Gov. DeSantis is being smeared for the sin of refusing to prioritize vaccines based on the race/gender/LGBTQ priorities preferred by the Democrats and the media. Instead, he is prioritizing elderly Americans, regardless of race/gender/sexual orientation or BLM stamp of approval to be the first to receive the shots.

Why? BECAUSE THEY ARE THE MOST VULNERABLE SEGMENT OF OUR POPULATION TO THE VIRAL GIFT FROM CHINA.

Honest to God, that’s what this smear is all about. If you think that’s despicable and depraved and more than a little bit demented and disgraceful, well, that’s all the proof you need to know that everyone pushing this smear in the media is in fact a Democrat operative.

Note also how the story begins with this first completely false smear: “Florida’s governor was slow to respond to the pandemic…”

DeSantis was in fact among the quickest to respond the pandemic in his state. How did he respond? By moving to protect the elderly, especially elderly residents in his state’s nursing homes and assisted living communities, so many of whom moved to Florida from New York for their retirements.

Those who moved are the lucky New Yorkers, since the Governor of that state, Andrew Cuomo, sentenced thousands of elderly nursing home patients to their deaths through his insane policy choices related to COVID.

But the media has chosen to lionize Cuomo for the past year, while at the same time endlessly harassing DeSantis, the guy who made sure his elderly residents had the very best chance of living through the pandemic, and is now making sure they are among the first to be inoculated. DeSantis’s choice to focus efforts on the most vulnerable segments of his state’s population is in fact the very reason why the Democrat media hacks hate him and continue to harass him.

Yes, that is insane. But that is what our utterly corrupt national news media does for Democrats.

For more proof of exactly how despicable the media truly is, let’s close this piece with this tweet:

That’s right: The Washington Post has now run 27 separate stories about Ted Cruz’s family vacation, but just 2 on Cuomo’s mass killings of elderly New Yorkers and his efforts to cover them up.

That’s the very definition of despicable.

That is all.

I thought the high risk elderly were SUPPOSED to be getting vaccinated first.

Now they are and it’s a political ploy.

I despise the lying media and democrats.

Not really. SOS has to follow the President’s lead. President Trump is not so self disciplined as to be a great follower. He is a very gifted leader, but is not prone to keeping his own thoughts hidden.

No. Any cabinet position for DJT would come with a confirmation circus the likes of which we’ve never seen. Make him a czar instead! Accountable only to the prez.

A good snapshot of the state of the MSM.

It was far closer than I liked. We dodged a fatal bullet there.

Why on earth should the Democrats be afraid of DeSantis and Cruz?

That’s right: The Washington Post has now run 27 separate stories about Ted Cruz’s family vacation, but just 2 on Cuomo’s mass killings of elderly New Yorkers and his efforts to cover them up.

All that shows is that they are playing to their audience where Republican hypocrisy is more popular than Democrat criminal activity.

I don’t think the media is afraid of anyone at this point. They seem to get away with whatever they want along with the social media helping to push what they want and hide, delete or simply not report what they chose.

Cubans born in Canada are in no way natural born citizens of the USA.

Ted Cruz has a file somewhere that describes how and when he got his US citizenship, we need to see it.

We know he did not give up his Canadian citizenship until 2015.

“Ted Cruz has a file somewhere that describes how and when he got his US citizenship, we need to see it.”

We’ve never seen real proof that Obama is a citizen, same goes for Kamala.

“I thought the high risk elderly were SUPPOSED to be getting vaccinated first.”

The RAT bureaucrats want to kill as many seniors as they can, of course they will keep their own parents and relatives alive. All one has to do is look at the vaccine rollout. Every Tom, Dick and Harry is getting vaccinated before the elderly and infirm, in NY, as Cuomo continues his reign of terror against the elderly.

DC is too busy laughing at Cruz to feel threatened by him, but they certainly FEAR DeSantis. His move to trigger them by lowering flags to respect Rush’s death sent a VERY STRONG message to DC, which is that he understands the populist support that Rush had and that Trump has, and he’s prepared to use that power against them.

They are right to fear DeSantis.

That's for sure. One can only imagine what would have happened if that corrupt, depraved bum, Gillum, had won.
