Florida public schools were defunded $2.5 BILLION this year to finance the purchase of lavish perks and private school tuition for wealthy families.

In FL the real educ agenda is to force families into costly private and private charter schools and minimize public school education. is a dragon whistle.

The critical problem in is that despite that may not become US President (still ?ble) he has installed an authoritarian government, has huge support base and has a State legislature that does his bidding and the power to fight back has been successfully diluted. is embedded throughout the State Where are the challenges ? 'States rights' delivers and a policy Civil War in FL is on.

Desantis removed Orlando-area State Attorney from her position as the chief prosecutor for the heavily populated central Florida region. He claimed that he was doing so because she was soft on crime.

Really looking forward to the day when Ron DeSantis demonstrates how an ex-governor is able to "parlay" the skills he learned.

Banned by Miami/Dade School District on the basis of one parent complaint. The complaint lists it as a book by Oprah Winfrey.
Evidently, no one read it or reviewed it prior to banning it. I am so furious about this crap. They also, along with many pieces of Black literature, banned Beloved by Toni Morrison and To Langston With Love by Tony Medina.
This is what white supremacist erasure of Black culture looks like in Fascist America.

Of course, this is meaningless in an apartheid state with one exception: Maybe some Black people will begin to organize and resist and become alarmed enough to understand the dire nature of their existence here.

So the bottom line is that the FL Legislature is banning sunshine.

Do Not Come to Florida!

Even if you feel like it is worth the risk to your safety, your vacation $ is just supporting the DeSantis regime.

Tourism is the number one industry by far here. The only way to get through to the Republican supermajority in Tallahassee is if tourism drops as a result of the horrible legislation they are passing.

Stop Cowering Before This Half-Bright Florida Fascist
Ron DeSantis wants to break the unions and make a temporary advantage permanent.

Ron DeSantis’s vow to eliminate “woke ideology” from Florida schools resembles how Hungary’s Viktor Orbán has channeled state funds into building a university system that serves as a propaganda machine for an autocratic administration.
