Donors who gave @RonDeSantis money for his gubernatorial re-election should ask his treasurer for refunds. This is fraudulent fundraising tactics. DeSantis solicited over $100 MILLION in campaign donations that were left over after his 2022 re-election and now he’s using that money to go after President Trump. $82.5 million was just transferred from DeSantis’s Gubernatorial committee to his Presidential PAC. Beyond shady and unethical. Trump voters who donated to @GovRonDeSantis for 2022 should file a lawsuit against Ron DeSantis for fraudulent fundraising tactics and should immediately ask for a REFUND. If enough people ask him for refunds, his donor platform...

Both Trump and DeSantis tied for first place with 41 percent support each in their home state. No other potential candidate came close. Pence fell 38 percent points behind with three percent support. Christie, Ramaswamy, and Haley came one point behind with two percent support, and zero percent supported Elder, Hutchinson, and Scott. Overall, eight percent of Florida GOP voters are “not sure” who they would support. Notably, 71 percent chose DeSantis as their first-choice candidate, compared to 57 percent who said the same of Trump. When asked who would be their second-choice candidate, 30 percent said DeSantis, followed by...

If Ron DeSantis wants to wrest front-runner status away from Donald Trump in the 2024 Republican presidential race, he’s going to have to resolve his trouble with female voters. That’s one takeaway from a new poll by The Economist and YouGov, which illustrates that DeSantis is dragging with women voters, and is stronger with men. While DeSantis only trails Trump 48% to 26% with male voters, with former United Nations envoy Nikki Haley and U.S. Sen. Tim Scott of South Carolina each taking 4% for a distant third, he’s doing much worse with women. In this survey, 54% of female...

"They are losing it that Trump posted this" A video for those that support Trump...warning, some curse words. And of course, don't click if you're a desantis supporter.

The goal, according to senior outside advisors, ought to be returning the DOJ and FBI to a more limited “pre-9/11” mission. DeSantis has assembled a brain trust of academics, members of Congress, and former administration officials to draw up step-by-step blueprints for tearing the DOJ and FBI down to the studs for a rebuild. He consults frequently with Reps. Thomas Massie of Kentucky and Chip Roy of Texas, conservatives always at war with government bureaucracy and openly hostile to federal power. Steven Bradbury of the Heritage Foundation and Victor Davis Hanson of the Hoover Institution have also joined the working...

Team #Desantis is having some issues... Specifically, the man on man showering thing. @ErinMPerrine-Communications Director for @NvrBackDown24 is on top of it

Ron DeSantis gets a little excited that they might indict President Trump Not a chance Rob... Not a chance... A parody of the "So you're telling me there's a chance" scene from Dumb and Dumber.collab with @LEAHmemes

Pro-Trump Twitter erupted in pushing a clip of an Oklahoma crowd being prompted by their governor to clap for Ron DeSantis. 'Oklahomans love Ron DeSantis!' Stitt said. While the majority of the crowd was silent, one man yelled out: 'That's right.' The clip is a throwback to a viral moment on the 2016 Republican primary campaign trail when then-candidate Jeb Bush pleaded for a crowd to clap for him during a stump speech in New Hampshire.

Ron DeSantis’s campaign wants him to meet and take more questions from ordinary voters to overcome fears about his temperament, DailyMail.com has learned. The 44-year-old has so far shied away from Q&A sessions on the road, despite being a standard feature of U.S. politics. Now, three DeSantis staffers have said they have concerns about the Navy veteran’s presentational style after being overshadowed by his wife Casey at rallies. A third source said that they even had to coach the Florida governor on ‘when to smile’ when trying to interact with ordinary Americans.

Now more than ever, it is imperative that Americans hold the line and keep the faith. As Republicans in North Carolina know, we must have the discipline and the conviction to stand together when it counts...The future of our nation is worth fighting for, and we will not give up the fight until we win in 2024.

A major poll by the Democracy Institute contains bad news for the Biden regime, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, and even Prince Harry. The poll does, however, contain plenty of good news for former President Donald Trump.Likely U.S. voters – 37 percent Democrats, 35 percent Republicans, and 28 percent Independents – were asked a range of questions from May 24th to May 26th, with their answers suggesting America in 2023 is “MAGA Country”. The data shows:Trump is preferred to DeSantis as the Republican nominee by 57 percent to 22 percent. None of the also-rans such as Nikki Haley or Mike Pence...

Flordia Governor Ron DeSantis has seen his net approval rating tank since he announced his bid for the presidency.A dynamic approval rating graph maintained by online pollster Civiqs puts DeSantis’s net approval at negative 19 points, with roughly 55 percent of respondents disapproving of him and 36 percent approving of him.As recently as December his approval and disapproval ratings were tied at 47 percent apiece.The findings appear to be further proof that DeSantis enjoyed no boost in support from his botched campaign launch, hosted by Elon Musk on Twitter Spaces.Reporting the Civiqs findings, Newsweek noted that Morning Consult polling shows...

The New Hampshire globalist is the latest Never Trumper to rear his head once again ahead of 2024.Last Updated on June 6, 2023Globalist New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu announced that he would not run for president because he wants all never-Trump Republicans to rally behind a candidate to stop Trump from winning the GOP Primary. Sununu recently said some very nice things about Ron DeSantis during the Florida Governor’s Trip to New Hampshire, signaling that DeSantis is the candidate that Sununu is talking about.In the WAPO, Sununu attacked Republicans aiming to be Trump’s VP, writing, “Too many other candidates who...

One of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis’s top D.C. fundraisers is a highly paid lobbyist for Big Pharma firm Moderna, and is advertising $1,000 tickets for access to DeSantis at his firm’s office a few blocks from the White House.The Daily Mail broke the story of lobbyist Marc Lampkin, one of the hosts of a DeSantis fundraiser in the swamp, on June 23rd.Lampkin has lobbied for Moderna since February 2021, and worryingly has also represented AbbVie – which makes puberty blocker Lupron targeted at “transgender” children – as well as the Chinese Communist Party-linked Fujian Jinhua – a semi-conductor manufacturer sanctioned...

The DeSantis campaign has recently taken to using a Big Tech fact check facility to attempt to deflect from criticism of the Florida Governor. DeSantis spokesman Christina Pushaw has recently been vocal about her support for the often dubious fact-checks. Her stance is a total U-turn on her previous commentary on such matters, and the change appears to have occurred immediately after Elon Musk hired a World Economic Forum CEO, and then hosted DeSantis for his campaign launch.April 2022: I agree. It is absurd to think that anyone, including “content moderators” “fact checkers” or “experts”, can be arbiters of truth....

A lobbyist for vaccine manufacturer Moderna and for the maker of a leading puberty blocker given to transgender children is holding a fundraising event for Ron DeSantis in Washington D.C. this month. It puts the Florida governor in an awkward position as he tries to ride anti-vaxxer sentiment and his record restricting gender-affirming treatment all the way to the White House. The controversy stems from an event to be held at the offices of Brownstein Hyatt Farber Schreck, D.C.'s biggest federal lobbying firm, on June 23. DeSantis supporters can buy a place with a $1,000 donation, according to an invitation...

Former DeSantis Press Secretary Christina Pushaw came directly to the Florida Governor’s office after working in Ukraine on behalf of Volodymyr Zelenskyy. There is a clear commonality of interest in the actions of Pushaw both in Ukraine and in Florida.Once the national DeSantis operation was fully constructed and funded, in August 2022 Pushaw left the governor’s office to assemble and coordinate the previously solicited social media influencers for the 2024 operation.After organizing the operatives, Pushaw is now spearheading a U.S. online influence campaign.In essence, a registered foreign agent is now working on the social media platform Twitter to construct disinformation...

Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis is attacking former President Donald Trump for “turning the country over to [Dr. Anthony] Fauci in March 2020” but DeSantis was praising the chief public health official at the same time in previously unreported quotes, saying Fauci was “really, really good and really, really helpful” and “really doing a good job.” In other comments, the Florida governor said he deferred to Fauci’s guidance on COVID-19 restrictions and later cited his guidance when communicating the policies he was putting in place early in the pandemic in the state of Florida. “You have a lot of...

People often ask me why I seem to highlight datapoints and background events that do not trend to the media-driven narrative priority of the moment. The answer is simple; everything is connected to the next thing that happens. If you do not outline the originating point, the accurate reference is missed when needed.This approach is why I have focused significant research on Elon Musk’s financial situation with Twitter {GO DEEP}.The issue of Twitter’s financial status speaks to the motives of Musk that later surface – like his relationship with Fox News billionaire Rupert Murdoch. Once you see the connections, suddenly...
