Fake news!

Inauguration of the new governor isn’t until January 8. DeSantis is not in charge and this headline is false. Governor Rick Scott is still in office and is taking his knee pads to DC to service POTUS in the Senate.

NBC...covering the state power grab by New Jersey Dems? First state in union to have two sitting sexual predators as US senators too!

We know for whom felons vote then.

Hey we all know a thief, drug addict, rapist or murderer are who we should ask to decide our children’s future. Liberalism_is_not_Journalism

What else would you expect from a Republican governor?

GOP is ignoring the voters

Where was the Supreme Court on this issue 50 years ago why when you commit a crime you lose a bill of right? When you commit a crime do you lose your 1st amendment rights 2nd 3rd 4th 5th? No you don't lose any of them so why do you lose your right to vote? SCOTUS blows

He is a a Crook.

‘Part of a broader Republican surrender’: How the GOP caved in its $867 billion farm billThe legislation failed to make significant progress on the GOP’s long-held goal of cutting federal food stamps, while enlarging federal agricultural subsidies. Trump prolly reading this as a border republican surrender!! I can sense a tweet incoming Why those farmers are against welfare for poor people in cities but favor WELFARE for themselves WTF! Clearly the GOP is no longer conservative. We need a conservative party. Time for a reconstituted conservative party that really is fiscally conservative, supports law enforcement (including the FBI), values decency, and can balance the other stuff....
