đ„âWas it worth it? How many mils did DeSantis burn,how many ruinous culture-war battles did he wage,how many times did fed/state judges need to clean up his messes, how many colleges did he need to ruin,how many lives did he need to blithely toss asideâ https://t.co/ioy2Xrje1q
Fucking liar .. these laws in Florida were put into place in 2000
âEarly results on election night is because state law allows for both processing and counting to start before Election Day.
Florida law allows county officials to begin tabulating mail ballots weeks before Election Day. In addition, Florida ends early in-person voting two or three days before Election Day, depending on the county, and does not allow mail ballots to be dropped off at voting precincts on Election Day (though voters can take ballots to their local elections office).Â
As a result, election workers in Florida get three additional days to process and count ballots

Florida processes more than 10 million votes in a matter of hours.
California takes days â or sometimes even weeks â to count the votes.
Itâs pathetic â and itâs corrosive to our civic culture.
@JeffreyBrandes@HollyBullardFL DeSantis âsmall government conservatismâ
Taking control of the judiciary, the legislature, schools/colleges , home rule local authority of counties
And Floridians gave their heads in the sand
âThe greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didnât exist.â - The Usual Suspects
The greatest trick DeSantis ever pulled was convincing Floridians that local government is the problem and state government is the solution.
If your mayor, sheriff, and county commission have to fly to Tallahassee every year to ask permission to fund basic services, the state didnât shrink government.
It just moved it farther away and gave you less control.
Justo Betancourt was detained at Alligator Alcatraz. He lost about 50 pounds while there, his wrists and ankles were bruised from the shackles he was forced to wear, and suffered a stroke while in detention.

US House advances bill to provide aid to Ukraine and sanction Russia through a discharge petition.
6 Republicans + Kiley voted with all Democrats to advance the bill.
The utter HYPOCRISY of DeSantis as he tries to Mandami ⊠and fails .. heâs grasping and flying by the seat of his pants on this ill conceived power grab
âIn New York City, Mayor Zohran Mamdani recently enacted a new tax on second homes that will more than double the property taxes owed by many wealthy owners of luxury apartments.
đ€Ąđ€ĄDeSantis had slammed Mamdani earlier this month for what he called his âtax the richâ message, saying rich NYC residents such as billionaire hedge fund manager Ken Griffin were wise to decamp to Miami.
âHeâs out to push a Marxist agenda. Heâs a leftist. Thatâs what they do,â DeSantis said of Mamdani then. â ⊠âOf course, youâre going to want to run from that area, and youâre going to want to embrace Florida.â
He also says Canadians can pick to the tab for this power grab .. âcept, they ainât comin anymore and are selling their houses in droves
What a shit show
đĄI have an idea !! How bout taxing Florida businesses/corporations that thru loopholes pay NO TAX !!!
Heâs trying to Mandami and Massachusetts but without the plan .. instead of targeting the wealthy to pay their fair share, heâs putting it on the backs of the poor and working class with âthe rich backfillingâ as a Hail Mary afterthought
Complete incompetence
Every Floridian no matter your party sb outraged at this political stunt
MacFarlane: I wasn't called Scott in the office. I was called Scotty Mac, Macfarlane or, hey, you come over here because Scott Pelley was Scott. That's the reverence with which he was held at CBS
Like everything this governor has done
Not meticulously thought out
All For political/Fox points
Lit the fire then walked away
People are still missing the point about losing Home rule and having to go to Tallahassee to beg for what your County needs
Itâs insane and no long-term impact studies were done. This was hatched on the back of an envelope for the last 18 months and this was the best they could do.?
âŠ.then hand it off over the weekend to the legislature who has had zero time to fully assess its impact
This isnât how you govern
Itâs how you campaign
Today the Florida Legislature voted to put a misleading and rushed amendment on the ballot promising to lower Property Taxes. This amendment will crush our local governments and will not provide relief, but shift the tax burden onto renters and small businesses

Your allies in Tallahassee wasted more than one billion in taxpayer dollars from Floridaâs emergency response fund to pay vendors at Alligator Alcatraz. Money that could have gone to combatting wildfires and hurricane response, but you donât say anything about that. Fraud.
Legislators should study how DeSantisâ property tax proposal will affect municipalities and then produce well-crafted legislation, not rush to passage at a lame-duck governorâs insistence. https://t.co/Y3kRjAjFFN
Florida needs property tax reform, just not the Soviet style version of centralized government they just put on the November ballot. Best to reject it and come back with something that preserves representative government. Gift link: https://t.co/bJ4M5NBz6Y https://t.co/AuVe7tfegc
He will fit in perfectly
Never met a constitutional law he wasnât willing to break
Operates in secrecy/tandem with his former COS/now appointed AG UTHMEIER . Stole millions in Medicaid settlement money to meddle in our election AND .. is now hiding the grand jury report that would expose their guilt
Brazenly violates Florida sunshine laws surrounding government transparency and insists on secrecy and loyalty .. just ask Susie Wiles
Uses taxpayer funds as a personal 24/7 ATM for he and the missus
Is a tool for Heritage Foundation. In fact, Leonard Leo flew to Florida two weeks before his first term office and hand picked the judges that the HF wanted in Florida courts
Puts his political agenda and thirst for power above the good of citizens
Is a bully with a glass jaw who canât take a punch
Is a raging homophobe, racist, bigot, islamaphobe who loves to stir the pot of hate and division
Canât take a fucking tough question from a 15 yr old
Heâll be perfect . Casey already measuring for drapes
