Gavin Newsom Warns America About the Dangerous Success of Ron DeSantis' Florida

The left has a hard-on about proving how "tough" and "combative" they are, and so this Sad Twink Gavin Newsom decided to show that he's a Brave Warrior by taking a trip to, get this, red states, where of course your very life is in danger, at least if you're visiting a blue city inside a red state.

He survived this ordeal -- just barely -- but he's back in Safe, Crime-Free California, and can now deliver this shocking report of what a well-run state looks like.

Last week, I went to New College in Florida -- ground zero for what the @GOP are trying to do to education in this country.

Take a moment to watch this.

Books are banned. Speech is limited. Faculty are scared. Students are bullied.

Nice ratio, @GavinNewsom. Now take this energy for academic freedom to San Francisco State University, where a woman was assaulted last week for stating the fact that men aren't women.

Almost as if to provide support for Gavin Newsom's pathetic political stunt, a group calling itself "Equality Florida" has issued a "warning" advising people not to visit Florida, given its dangerous history of not allowing children to watch pornographic drag shows.

@DouglasSoule
LGBTQ civil rights group Equality Florida has issued a travel advisory, warning of "risks posed to the health, safety, and freedom of those considering short or long term travel, or relocation to the state."

The group directed warnings in particular to "people who speak with an accent" and "international travelers."

These are, of course, euphemisms for "illegal aliens."

"People who speak with an accent" is good, but "international travelers" is where it crosses over into art.

AP decides to promote Newsom's hit-trip by warning Americans that Ron DeSantis is considering a White House run, and if he becomes president, he might use some of the executive powers he's already shown a dangerous addiction to using.

Can you imagine? A President using his constitutional executive powers?

This is like Germany in 1975. Okay maybe that's not the right date but I'm not a "details" kind of guy. Kind of like a "journalist"!

DeSantis flexes executive powers while eyeing White House
Suspending an elected Democratic prosecutor. Forbidding gender-affirming treatments for minors. Expanding the "Don't Say Gay" law to high schools.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has exercised his executive powers to advance elements of his aggressive conservative agenda, drawing on appointees, boards and the state Constitution in a deliberate manner as he builds toward an expected presidential candidacy.
The approach displays the Republican's willingness to leverage his office to notch political wins and punish political enemies, even as the GOP-dominated Legislature has sped his proposals through the statehouse. It also signals the meticulous style that underpins his brash public persona and offers hints about how he could govern if elected president.

Oh no-- he's willing to "leverage his office to notch political wins"!

For DeSantis, the unilateral moves are part of his broad mandate as the elected chief executive of Florida. He is coming off a dominant reelection victory last fall where he campaigned on a host of conservative policies that energized the state's Republican base and helped flip reliably Democratic counties such as Miami-Dade.
"November's election results represent a vindication of our joint efforts over these past four years. The results also vest in us the responsibility to lead and provide us the opportunity to shoot for the stars," DeSantis told lawmakers in his annual address to begin the legislative session this year. "Boldness be our friend in this endeavor. We have a lot we need to accomplish."

A spokesman for the governor said DeSantis compiled a full accounting of his powers after he won office so he could effectively execute his agenda and added that many of his policies have been adopted by the Legislature.

I've mentioned that.

The media routinely mocks Republicans who say that the left has weaponized the federal government.

They're very eager to promote claims that DeSantis has "weaponized" the Florida government against gays, though.

Brandon Wolf, press secretary for the LGBTQ advocacy group Equality Florida, warned of the potential for similar actions under a potential DeSantis presidency.
"The very same ways he has perverted and weaponized state agencies and state boards in Florida, you can imagine he would do the same thing on the federal level," Wolf said. "And what makes him potentially more dangerous than Donald Trump is that DeSantis actually knows how government works."

You seem to be under the impression that our Public education system is there to educate children to be productive citizens rather than to simply launder money into Dem campaign coffers.

Tell me where California ranks in donations from school/dept of Ed employees and unions to Dem candidates.

He can't diverge from DJTs policies significantly.

Idk. It is facially reasonable. And ppl might genuinely believe it.

But, equating the opposition DJT faced with FLA is silly.

It all seems designes to obfuscate DeSantis neo-con For-Pol.

Because For Pol is why DC united against DJT.

106 "Books are banned. Speech is limited. Faculty are scared. Students are bullied."

Probably the single most demoralizing experience I've had in the last several years was making a visit in a professional capacity to a campus and seeing firsthand the degree to which the students - who were supposed to be the next generation of my profession - were all subjected to an Orwellian nightmare.

It was the same creepy vibe you used to get from the Soviet Union before they imploded. These kids would literally silence each other in a panic if someone drifted too close to wrongthink. Assignments from professors were openly flirting with themes of genocide vs. non-lefties. I came back from that visit with a massive shift in priorities focused on getting the fuck out of dodge and stacking beans and bullets to the rafters.

No, I don't think he is. There is a lot going for Newsom. As you mentioned, he is handsome, speaks well and is ideologically pure. He's also deeply-connected. That's a lot in the "plus" column. There are two really big things in the "minus" column, though:
1. He's a he, and a *white* he at that. He isn't even gay, so there are *no* offsets for his original sin of male whiteness. In his party, this is a serious problem from a platform and appearances standpoint.
2. He's from California. California is deeply hated in much of the interior, and *any* candidate from California is going to have a very tough row to hoe. California is toxic, and people from there face a serious uphill battle. This doesn't matter as far as the general elections (the fix will be in if needed), but it *does* matter for the primaries.

249 I know very well that the media etc. will attack DeSantis just like they attacked Trump - where I differ is that I think DeSantis and his press team are savvy enough to fight them off, whereas Trump always made their job easy by shooting his mouth off foolishly at foolish times, and by surrounding himself with traitorous idiots that he never vetted. DeSantis comes with a team of aids that have been working for him in Florida for years; if you want to get rid of the deep staters in the Executive branch, you need someone who can bring in a whole bunch of experienced Florida people, and ban any hiring of anyone from DC, NY, or Virginia. Just on general principle.

And you deal with the Senate by telling them to fuck off every time they squawk or try to block appointees. Every time they cause trouble, fire a whole bunch of people they like. Create a "constitutional crisis" and dare them to do something about it - those old men don't have the nerve to stand up to a real fight.

280 I just got back from a visit with relatives in the Bay Area. It looks awful.

I grew up there, back before San Jose was Silicon Valley. There are homeless encampments springing up near the wealthy suburbs and along the freeways. Long-standing malls are half vacant. The Home Depot that burned down two years ago shows zero signs of reconstruction.

Visited SF for a day of touristy kitsch for another relative visiting from Mexico. (I went more as a bodyguard than any love for the city.) The tourist traps have lost all semblance of charm and are derelict. We were greeted by a drunkard slurring God-knows-what at the sky. The smell of weed commingled with the usual smell of the Bay. And on the way out of town, the main drag had a three-block section of the 4-lane expressway lined with aging motor homes and campers that looked like some city official's attempt at avoiding the filthy scene of corrugated-tin lean-to's and flapping tarps of homeless camps from spoiling the view.

They will Kavanaugh him is my guess if he was the nominee. DeSantis taught at a private school in GA and there are some pix floating around out there with him around some teens drinking beers. From that seed, a whole forest will emerge of a classic smear.

All it takes is one well paid female to start throwing rocks and then the whole thing degenerates into mudslinging, insinuations, etc. DeSantis has to know it is coming because Trump alluded to it earlier this year to the ire of many supporters here so we will see what the response will be to it.

Trump has his own liabilities but also a harder rock of support thru hell or high water. Overall, assuming that the GOP had enough seats in the House and Senate, electoral fraud is limited or attenuated enough to win, and McConnell is gone, I think DeSantis might be the more effective president in terms of getting policies through the House. But he would not be able to take a flamethrower to the DC establishment during his first term unless he wanted to be James K. Polk.

324 For whatever it's worth, there seems to be an effort right now to discredit DeSantis over the flooding in Fort Lauderdale, which I know nothing about: there was a crapton of rain there the other day and some flooding, but it didn't look anything like Katrina to me. I don't know, maybe it was worse than I thought.

Anyway, they're saying that DeSantis doesn't care about Floridians because he hasn't shown up yet, and by "they" I mean Democrats as well as Trump spokesmen, who seem to be in alliance quite a lot these days.

He will get help from "the great people" at the RNC line his incompetent bestie, Rona.

Democrats will run a campaign that runs away from the real issues, focuses on their social destruction, aimed at changing SCOTUS and focused on distracting Trump, which isn't that hard.

327 when people who left the Catholic Church and said they hated it, but just couldn't stay away so they decided to infiltrate and turn it into a skin suit of its former self.

Every organization has members who love the idea or structure but hate how its being used, so they stay in and destroy it from within, if allowed. Nearly every denomination in Christendom has been corrupted this way.

Take my church, the Christian Reformed Church. It started out SUPER conservative and in my opinion overly restrictive and controlling. In the last 40 years its gone from being very Biblical and traditional to radicalized. Because the people who want to do the work of running an organization are usually people you don't want doing it.

Too far out to assume much of anything of who will be the Dem nominee vs. the Rep nominee. Both Trump and Biden are old men--even a fall can have massive negative health issues going forward. Biden has an abysmal health record of aneurysms, increasingly showing dementia, etc. and no amount of media cheerleading is working anymore as indications are that people want someone else. I also expect bad economic problems in September/October time frame. Trump has legal troubles to which no one really can evaluate that black box.

DeSantis and Newsome are the obvious possibles heirs to the nomination but each will have their own problems--some self caused, others will come from events beyond their control. Election fraud is something DeSantis will face, Newsome, economic collapse.

CA's surpluses were always kind of ephemeral. CA's tax structure is wholly-dependent on its very rich residents, and much of it is capital gains.

When the stock market or bond market or startups don't do well, CA tax receipts crash. If the ultra-rich take a major hit or - even worse - leave the state, the tax receipts crash.

CA's finances are *always* on a razor's edge, and the state government never ever acts like it.

The Great Depression had several stages--the market crash first and then steadily worsening employment, prices, etc. plus Hoover government idiocy in policies by the Fed to tighten rather than loosen monetary policy. That was in an era where federal debt was something like 25-30 percent of GDP. The Fed today faces financing govt debt over 100 percent and that will spiral from automatic stabilizers in a downturn but instead of deflation--a soft monetary policy will simply stoke inflation. Other governments abroad are in similar conditions or much worse.

In states with no precincts, mainly AZ and some other mail ballot blue states, that might be true. In others, not so.

Actually, Joe Biden was not the second most popular. Both Mayor Pete and Senator Amy Klobuchar were performing better than Joe Biden in the primaries.

But Obama and South Carolina U.S. Congressman James E. Clyburn came together to determine how to deny Bernie the nomination. Amy and Pete dropped out. Liz Warren stayed in to siphon some votes from Bernie. Clyburn told his supporters in South Carolina to vote for Biden, and the rest (as they say) is history.

Not sure what the Democrat establishment is going to give (or threaten) Bernie with this time to keep him from running against Joe (who needs Hunter or the Easter Bunny to keep him on track).

“Tim Scott juggernaut”

Huh? On what planet? And don’t say Uranus.

Besides, Tim and Nikki are taking away the NeverTrump vote from Governor DeSantis.

Wait. Is DeSantis running for President? Or is he still consulting his magic meat ball? /sarcasm

If the Party decided to run Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, NYers would vote for him - those are votes the Dems *never* have to steal.

451 373 and this is how they will solidify the black vote. They will fake up the inner city numbers to the sky and then say well it was reparations that caused all the hidden voters to come out and vote.

Its going to be done to provide cover for the steal. Its also going to be the end of the beginning. We're well into the beginning of the end.

This guy gets it.

But the Mexicans are going to burn down CA if they force reparations.

Not if the Federal Government subsidizes the Reparations payments. And it will.

Oh, you thought US Dollars were real money? Joke’s on you. Can’t wait for the CBDC’s.
