As Florida COVID Cases Spike, Miami Beach Mayor Says Gov. Ron DeSantis is Leading State 'Off a Cliff' excerpt: "As Florida becomes a hotspot for cases of the highly contagious Delta variant, Miami Beach Mayor Dan Gelber says the state's governor, Ron DeSantis, is making it "as difficult as possible to make people safe." "We're not allowed to have mask mandates right now," Gelber, 60, told CNN's Ryan Nobles in an interview over the weekend. "We were one of the first cities to require it and we charged a fine just to get people to do it and the governor stopped allowing us to do it and then immediately we saw a surge across our county and state when he did that.""
MyPillow Guy Punts Timeline for Trump Retaking Power as Conspiracy Theories Get Wackier excerpt: "Reached for comment Monday, Lindell admitted that his August timeline—which he had already suggested was elastic—might now be further delayed. "We’ll be bringing our findings to the Supreme Court in late August or early September, some time after the cyber-symposium ends, and it proves it was an attack by China,” Lindell told The Daily Beast of non-existent election fraud, and an upcoming event devoted to the same. “When I gave my prediction about August, and that was several months ago, that was an estimate at the time. But it took so long to get this symposium set up. However long it takes for the Supreme Court to take it up and decide on this, I can’t predict that. I’m not the Supreme Court.”"
Amazing how that happened. It’s like standing on train tracks while the train is coming and wondering if the 60 mile an hour train is going to hit you…..
A cartoon is needed showing DeSantis as the pied piper with his magic pipe and wearing the shirt he has been selling (Don't Fauci My Florida) leading the general public off a cliff. Gov. Ron DeSantis sells ‘Don’t Fauci My Florida’ merch as his state’s COVID-19 cases spike
DeSantis the DEATH-MAN. There's a campaign slogan for you .......... Death-man DeSantis. I hope Florida voters thank him for the soaring costs of hospitalizations in that state, and the rising insurance premiums they'll surely have to shoulder. Maybe DeSantis also thinks gobbling down lots of butter, ice cream, bacon, lard, potato chips, candy, and smoking 2 or 3 packs of cigarettes every day are good ways to handle arterial blockages too??? When you're sick with some condition ............. better call DeSantis and THE REPUBLICAN PARTY for "expert" advice. Politicians always know much more than real doctors. People are saying this.
You mean you don't remain standing on the tracks???????? Well ................. seems you're not a "true, tough patriot." A true T**** believer/patriot would stand there ............ like any "real man" would. Only "weak" people take the sensible route. Also funny how sooooo many REPUBLICAN CONGRESS-PEOPLE & POLITICIANS at other levels will not reveal their OWN vaccination status. Could it be that THEY got vaccinated ......... actually believing the medical experts - but not daring to publicly admit it????? Can't embarrass the T****-god and admit he & they were wrong about Covid-19.
DeSantis might want to be careful about the slope he is on. It seems he is punishing the urban areas with his anti mask mandate because they didn’t vote for him. He carried the rural areas, but not the big cities. He only beat Andrew Gillum by 32,000 votes in 2018.
^^^^^^^^ The video clip points out a simple fact - if people would put down their political "labels" and "armor" - and look at the obvious facts as they can clearly be seen in the numbers, the U.S. could turn the corner on the Covid-19 case numbers. One promising sign ........ the vaccination rates are trending upward. Maybe some folks are waking up to reality. It eventually becomes tough to deny what your eyes see. Sooo sad that so many people died from following hair-brained "leaders" - or from being exposed to uncaring individuals screaming about their "Constitutional rights." For the Christian folks out there, let's see what Jesus taught about doing all one can FOR your fellow man / woman ........... The parable of the "Good Samaritan" teaches that a Samaritan man (like oil & water with Jewish people - they just didn't mix or agree on anything) stopped his journey, took a man who'd been robbed and beaten to an inn. There he gave the innkeeper money to care for the injured man. (who had been ignored by several other passers-by, including a Jewish priest). The Samaritan man then told the innkeeper that he'd stop by on his return trip to see how the injured man was doing, and if he needed more money for his care. (Love thy neighbor as yourself) If - by teaching this parable - this is how Jesus shows us to care for our fellow man or woman ........... how does that compare with "tough, he-man" folks who refuse to wear masks, social distance, get vaccinated, or follow ANY advice from the medical community to protect each other / care about each other from Covid-19??? What about those men & women who go up to masked people and rip off their masks??? NOTHING Christian or "Godly" about all those behaviors / attitudes / lack of concerns. Funny how so many of those uncaring people "claim" to be good Christians.
Abbott is using this to deflect from problems in his state, i.e. the failure of the Texas power grid.
Trump's statement about his inisistence that the DOJ declare the 2020 election corrupt: "The American People want, and demand, that the President of the United States, its chief law enforcement officer in the country, stand with them to fight for Election Integrity and to investigate attempts to undermine our nation. Our country has just suffered an incredibly corrupt Presidential Election, and it is time for Congress and others to investigate how such corruption was allowed to take place rather than investigating those that are exposing this massive fraud on the American People."
So... Is this Trump saying that "the President of the United States" (which is now Biden) and Congress should investigate the election fraud that Trump is the cause of?
A pro-Trump Arizona state senator called for the mass imprisonment of Maricopa County officials after they condemned the election audit
Mr. Subliminal version: "The American People (dupes) want, and demand, that the President of the United States (grifter), its chief law enforcement officer in the country (lawbreaker), stand with them to fight (riot) for Election Integrity (me) and to investigate attempts to undermine our nation (Capitol riot). Our country has just suffered an incredibly corrupt Presidential Election (I lost), and it is time for Congress and others (Lindell) to investigate how such corruption was allowed to take place (not) rather than investigating those (me) that are exposing (concocting) this massive fraud (none) on the American People (dupes)."
GOP is still in the land of make believe. 'Adventure in never-never land': Maricopa County defies new subpoena in Arizona election audit excerpt: ""It is now August of 2021. The election of November 2020 is over," Jack Sellers, who leads the board that oversees elections in the county, wrote in a scathing letter. "If you haven't figured out that the election in Maricopa County was free, fair, and accurate yet, I'm not sure you ever will." He added: "The reason you haven't finished your 'audit' is because you hired people who have no experience and little understanding of how professional elections are run." State Senate Republicans, who are steering an extraordinarily partisan audit of ballots in Maricopa County, the state's most populous county, issued new demands last week for documents and dates to the Board of Supervisors and to Dominion Voting Systems, which has been the subject of far-right conspiracy theories about fraud in the presidential election."

Trump just filed a charge in court to prevent Congress from getting his taxes. That's the liar who said he would release them after the audit was finished five years ago. There must be some real good stuff in the documents; after all, he has spent millions on high paid lawyers to keep his taxes secret. Now the case at hand is about the law which clearly says the House Ways and Means Committee can get them. The other case is in New York where Cyrus Vance already has Trump's records. Individual 1 must be very frustrated with our laws?
