“I don’t even think the governor knows what’s going on." Prisoners in the Gulag often wrote to Stalin, thinking that if Uncle Joe only knew...

Florida and California are going in opposite directions politically. Which will look good in 10 years? I’m betting on the CA.

the word you're looking for is Schutzstaffel, which would be a good match given what a whiny, fragile ass Heinrich "Prissy Boots" DeSantis is.

DeSantis is like a cartoon character. A very bad cartoon character.

“I don’t even think the governor knows what’s going on. I don’t think this is a fly on his radar right now,” Newhouse said. “I think he would be appalled."

This is the same line that Russia's mobiks and inmate soldiers, and their families, have been spouting on Russian social media lately. The "Oh-Dear-Loving-and-Wise-All-Powerful-Leader-Save-Us" lament they make while pointing out that they have been roundly betrayed and hoodwinked by everyone else except Putin, who will surely rescue them if only he knew the truth.

As for escaping federal jurisdiction, Ronnie, well good luck with that. The feds have control of the skies and the night.

Can we just skip ahead to the part where he’s screaming at his generals in his bunker?

Rhonda Santis is an individual who poseesses just as many if not more behavioral dysfunctions as the twice-impeached, soon to be thrice-indicted former President of the United States.

Not as much torture as watching him eat pudding.

The governor is trying to "big government over-reach" by encroaching on the private sector. If you need a few heads busted you hire Pinkertons.

The training looks like a selection process, like scammers use to find marks. The easy and dumb ones.

Where is the federal government, FFS? We know DeSantis targets. Immigrants, POC, LBTQ+ and anyone who doesn't sufficiently conform to his sadistic political views. He will eventually deploy his militia against his own innocent civilians.

Particularly on immigration issues, even the right wing hacks on the Supreme Court admit the feds have sole authority on immigration issues.

Hmmmm, I wonder how many dictators have been killed directly by their own security forces?

I wonder how many have been deposed by a conspiracy involving the security forces?

I only wonder because DeDe has such an effect on the people he meets in person...

The PAB wanted "his" generals to be loyal like Hitler's generals were. Mark Milley pointed out to him that a bunch of Hitler's generals plotted to assassinate Hitler, and the PAB could not believe this rock solid historical fact.

How cute -- Ronald has his own Wagner group now. Does he want the U.S. to play the role of Ukraine while he Poots around down in Florida?
