According to Jacksonville 4 News Governor Ron DeSantis spent last weekend “huddled behind closed doors at a south Florida luxury hotel for a “Freedom Blueprint” retreat with more than 100 donors, elected officials and conservative influencers.” According to the report from those present, “Laura Ingraham hosted a fireside chat with DeSantis on Sunday.”
You would think this ongoing network and relationship would need a mention, perhaps even a disclaimer, if the Fox News pundit was going to follow up with additional promotion of the same candidate. Alas, as more people become familiar with the tactics of the professionally Republican, what ends up being highlighted is the transparent effort to manipulate the viewer.

Factually, I’m tired of the lies and manipulations. It is difficult not to loathe these creatures now.
Ms Ingraham continues her hypocritical false front as a conservative. {GO DEEP} This weekend the multinational lobbying group Club for Growth, headed by David McIntosh, are assembling a strategy session with big Wall Street donors to organize the multi-candidate roadmap for Ron DeSantis.
(Via CBS) – A GOP source familiar with the closed-door donor retreat by the conservative Club for Growth confirmed to CBS News that the group is hosting a closed-press donor retreat for 2024 hopefuls during the same time as CPAC this week.
Club for Growth’s annual retreat will be held at the opulent Breakers Hotel in Palm Beach, just three miles from former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago club. However, Club for Growth, which has been public about looking to move the GOP past Trump, did not invite the former president to the retreat.
Trump posted on Truth Social on Tuesday morning about Club for Growth, derisively calling them “Club for NO Growth,” and saying the group “is an insignificant group of Globalists who I have beaten badly because of their anti America First views. They will only get the ‘stragglers.'”
Trump, meanwhile, will be headlining CPAC, which will be holding its annual conference in Maryland the same weekend.
[…] DeSantis and Pence declined invites to CPAC. Haley and Ramaswamy are the only two declared presidential candidates who are attending both CPAC and CFG events. Representatives of Scott had been discussing his attendance at CPAC with event organizers but as of Tuesday morning, Scott does not plan on attending the annual Republican cattle call.
Some GOP operatives associated with the non-Trump political operations have told CBS News that CPAC has become too closely associated with Trump and his campaign, and not worth attending, especially with the annual straw poll likely going to Trump. (read more)
The more DeSantis speaks, the smaller in worm stature he becomes…
People are catching on. People are really catching on.

Laura kinda showed her arse back in 2020 when she was first to advise Trump to graciously concede immediately after the stolen election.
Twenty-five years ago Ingraham was a fresh new voice who had some good views. When she went mainstream she sold out.
Sundance used to be much more intrepid in his reporting.
Hey Republicans, here’s a neat idea. Let’s self-destruct with a vicious, bloody civil war and hopelessly divide the party in preparation for a presidential election in which we face the weakest incumbent opponent in history. Sounds to me like a winning strategy!
She is FOX deep State through and through now. They get big paychecks and live well.
Only one I like is Rachel Duffy and she may get booted because she isn’t always doing and saying what FOX likes.
Little slimy both. Whatever Trump is, hes not slimy.
“Let’s self-destruct...”

Running interference for DeSantis and Fox News, are ya. Because it’s certainly not looking out for the Republican Party, but the Deep State.
She’s a Bushie.
Governor DeSantis is a presidential candidate?
When did that happen?
Also FWIW, channel 4 in Jacksonville was a cbs channel until the network dropped ‘em.....now they’re a cnn affiliate.
“Hey Republicans, here’s a neat idea. Let’s self-destruct with a vicious, bloody civil war and hopelessly divide the party in preparation for a presidential election in which we face the weakest incumbent opponent in history. Sounds to me like a winning strategy!’
AMEN! AMEN!
2024 should be great for Conservatives and Republicans.
Of course, at this rate they’ll blow it spectacularly.
PA ran someone who had NO CHANCE for Governor. NONE! and he, at the top of the ticket, KILLED Republicans across the state.
No kidding, I choose to look at the situation as, we have Trump as the #1 candidate, if that doesn’t happen for some reason, DeSantis would be a solid #2 that would be far superior to McCain or Romney who the Republicans have nominated.
Conversely the other side is likely to run a dementia laden fool who is his 80s, if some reason Biden doesn’t make it, then who would it be, Kamala Harris, Gavin Newsom or some other raving lunatic...
Compare Trump or DeSantis to any of the choices from the Democrats, yet we seem hell bent on tearing down our two candidates, it makes ZERO sense.
More slanted and borderline bitter.
Laura continues to audition for the position of ‘king maker’.
This is a job she has coveted for years.
I don’t know why anyone would still believe that the U.S. media are an institution that operates independently of our political institutions. They’re not. They’re all part of the same political-financial-cultural monolith that runs this country.
Sounds like they are trying to connect with the common man, I mean, who doesn’t spend $2,000 a night at a hotel.
CfG has ALWAYS been anti-Trump. BTW, we'll never be in that club. Weekend retreat with DeSantis?
I think he's turning RINOese
I think he's turning RINOese
I really think so...
I think she did the same with Romney back in the day
“Sundance used to be much more intrepid in his reporting.”
Appears that over time many “journalists” tend to become both lazy and more beholden.
