FTA: " the DeSantis administration’s marshaling of state resources to finance his fight against political causes supported by a majority of Florida voters "

Isn't that the very definition of 'Democracy'?
Which is what the Democrats are fighting to preserve?

We’ll see. We already know that Governor DeSantis looted a $10 million payment TO THE STATE as part of a Medicaid settlement and routed it to his wife’s “Project Hope,” which in turn funneled it to political action committee aligned with his referendum positions.

So is this out of keeping with his pattern of behavior? No.

That is SO weak a defense.

Come to think of it, it’s a non-defense defense.

LOL with the “sudden” investigative “journalism”.

Same crowd that missed Joe Biden cr@pping his pants while sniffing little girls.

You’re not going to Biden-away this act of corruption.

I think you took a wrong turn when you signed in to BlueSky, Miami Democrat.

I absolutely despise DeSantis but I assume you're correct.

Same old playbook. “Women and children hardest hit”.

As a Florida taxpayer, my concern is that the governor looted the public treasury.

As would be mine. Seems like it still went to Floridians

Undoubtedly, it’s not bad (or even newsworthy) when Democrats do exactly the same thing.

Folks might want to read up before getting their knickers in a knot.

I’ve got no brief for this charity, BTW.

This is easy.

To destroy the Republican’s voters support, the democrats have done two things:

1. Attacked evangelicals who support Israel
2. Running fake Christian’s who can say how immoral Trump’s agenda is.

Many actual Christian’s took the bait on the first

The Miami Hurled is garbage. Use it for emergency toilet paper, kindling, or bird cage liner.

I don’t understand whatever point it is you’re making.

How would Democrats attacking pro-Israel evangelicals have any effect, much less one that “destroys the Republican’s voters support”?
