Florida GOP Bullshit

Florida Dems called on GOP Ron DeSantis to require the use of face coverings in public statewide to curb the state’s surging pace of coronavirus infections.
---
DeSantis has said repeatedly, and recently reiterated, that he will not mandate mask use, leaving it to local governments and individuals to decide for themselves.
---
Miami-Dade County, Palm Beach County, Orange County, Leon County, Hillsborough County and St. Augustine have adopted mask mandates.
---
Meanwhile, state Rep. Anthony Sabatini, a Lake County Republican, is filing lawsuits against local governments that impose 
face-mask ordinances.

Happy Birthday Andrew Joseph III

"There’s not a day that passes by that I don’t think of you and Remember that I still have a son and I named him Andrew Joseph, III ... he is forever 14 years old. Today and Always. I love you son and miss you so damn much." Deanna Hardy-Joseph

Florida Dems Beware

Trump is scheming to retain power in the event of an electoral loss in November, according to a former Senator from Colorado.
---
Trump will attempt to retain power through voter suppression. The Senator alleges there is a strategy to suppress voter turnout by purging voters - especially inner-city voters - from registration rolls and to suppress mail-in voting. He also believes physical polling locations will be limited, especially in urban areas, in an effort to create long lines on Election Day and discourage voting. HERE

The Right-Wing Cuban Diaspora in Miami

The fury over French director Olivier Assayas’s new film “Wasp Network,” inspired by the real story of a Cuban spy ring operating in the U.S. in the 1990s.
---
 The feature film has reignited ideological passions across the Florida Straits. The vociferous right-wing Cuban diaspora in Miami has led a petition drive #RemoveWaspNetwork (18,000 signatures as of July 2) for Netflix to take down the film. HERE

Operation Pedro Pan and the Exodus of Cuba’s Children

Operation Peter Pan (or Operación Pedro Pan) was a clandestine mass exodus of over 14,000 unaccompanied Cuban minors ages 6 to 18 to the United States over a two-year span from 1960 to 1962. They were sent by their parents who were alarmed by rumors circulating amongst Cuban families that the new government under Fidel Castro was planning to terminate parental rights, and place minors in communist indoctrination centers.

Florida's Ron DeSantis Disaster

One recent survey has some troubling news for DeSantis. HERE
--
His unfavorable rating has shot up from 28.5 percent to 40.5 percent. The reason? 
More and more people know who DeSantis is and have formed an opinion about him. Wish voters had know that before they 
voted for him.
