Yep, about sums it up nicely

[Genius Parks @Genius_Parks]

Does this include doxing private citizens & sending someone out to their personal residence to intimidate them over a meme they didn't like? Because that's what happened to me on Friday @JasonWeidaFL @RonDeSantis @CaseyDeSantis.

This idea that someone other than a campaign operative can't be passionate about where they stand on a candidate is ridiculous. I also find it ironic that the same people who misconstrue Jay's "You don't have a right to harm people with your words" are the ones taking action that is anti-1A because they have a problem with the criticisms I've raised.

Now I've got nothing to hide because I haven't done anything wrong. If I choose to reveal more about who I am, that's MY choice, not some passed-out drunk's in the EOG.

Have I been critical of the Governor? Absolutely! Last February when Donalds entered the race we were told Ron had a plan to start funding real conservatives for this upcoming cycle to challenge the RINOs that were trying to set us back to pre-2018 . We were teased with a potential Casey candidacy. It never materialized. It left many people dumbfounded as to how there wasn't a successful succession plan in place given all the time to make it happen.

Then in August, Ron appointed Jay Collins the Lt. Gov. Many took that as a sign that this was the succession plan. Especially after Ron knee-capped Paul Renner's campaign launch as DOA.

And then sometime around October, in what can only be described as the stupidest shit I've ever seen, the EOG went rogue on Jay. This was around the same time Ron tried gathering donor support and they shut him down, and after that happened it's like he just quit on the race. You had @ChristinaPushaw going around the Governor to secretly advise James Fishback, a man so utterly reprehensible given the legitimate accusations of sexual assault of minors & his anti-Israel, antisemitic tripes that I don't even know how someone recovers from that blunder. But her hatred for the Collins is greater than her disdain of Fishback's actions and this should tell you something. My personal opinion is that when the donor cash ran dry they wanted Casey to run b/c she was the one person that could survive a shortage of cash just based on Name ID alone, and they blame Jay's decision to run as the reason Casey didn't, whether true or not.

But it's clear the EOG has had a personal vendetta against the Collins for months. We've heard it all from "Jay abandoned his first son", "Jay hired John Cardillo", "Jay threatened to shoot Taryn Fiske", "Layla ran burner accounts criticizing the EOG & DeSantis". I mean it's been truly stunning to watch. Documented foreign account bot farms tied to the same Georgian vlogger were set up to attack the Collins 24/7. I asked Bobby Salvador to find an equivalent attack on the Donalds, Renner, or Fishback campaigns, but none exist. It's 100% anti-Jay. Doesn't anyone else find this odd? I mean supposedly the guy is going to get less than 10% and finish 3rd or worse. If true, why take such drastic actions to beat a dead horse?

So while all this bullshit has been going on, the Governor has remained silent. He's got time to tweet about sports, food, campaign news in other states, but not the state & the race that matters the most. He's made endorsements this cycle including Wilton Simpson which is bizarre since Simpson colluded with the House RINOs to try to strip immigration policy from the Governor's authority & give it to the Ag Comm, which is crazy considering Wilton's on record supporting Driver's Licenses for illegals.

So in my attempt to get the Governor's attention, I make funny memes. I make them because I care about my state and don't want it to turn into California. The EOG clearly doesn't have the Governor's back & has gone rogue. It is ridiculous that the Governor has not weighed in on this race one way or the other & if he remains silent it will destroy his legacy. MAGA's always going to embrace who Trump tells them to and that will never be Ron. Many Floridians that were trying hard for him in IA in 2024 won't support him again for this cowardice. So then, where's his 2028 base?

The @GovGoneWild & @JamesUthmeierFL endorsements of Byron Donalds were truly disappointing, but unsurprising. They should know better. Unlike the Governor, staying quiet was an option for them in uncompetitive races. James endorsement of Byron post had a greater than 3-1 ratio. It's sad when our leaders become politicians again and take the political expediency route. I know for a fact as well they were asked to endorse Byron at the Showdown, but knew the backlash it would receive & decided to do it online later in the week.

I was fortunate to attend one of Jay's events in The Villages back on July 3. Regular people who meet Jay & Layla in person at these events come away impressed and realize right away there's no truth to any of the nonsense the EOG's been spewing. We're also not looking for a perfectionist. We just want someone who isn't going to f-up the state the way we know Byron Doanlds will as a payback to his megadonors. I still find it crazy that candidates not named Trump continue to be held to Pre-2016 perfection standards where one perceived mishap or bad debate is a campaign death knell.

Governor DeSantis still has time to make a difference in this race & endorse Jay, but time is clearly running out. My memes have made it known I'm not happy about his silence, and I'm not the only one. But for someone on his staff to suggest I should be "institutionalized" for expressing that disdain & with how the EOG has conducted itself on taxpayer dime to baselessly attack the sitting Lt. Gov & his wife, and then to be doxed & intimidated for it into backing off like they did to Reese, well all I have to say is F- that.

In closing....If you're a Floridian who's a Registered Republican who cares about the future of Florida, please consider supporting Jay Collins in the upcoming Primary. Jay is the one guy in this race that will keep the DeSantis legacy going, whether Ron will publicly admit that or not. I'd also encourage you to attend an in-person event where you can directly ask Jay any questions you want. I'll repost by experience from the July 3 event in The Villages shortly which solidified my support.

Everyone should know what the broker loophole is.

The people benefiting from it certainly do.

[Karen Simmonds @KarenSimmskk]

@melliehcee he is such a lying hothead. He needs to not only lose the Governor Primaries but to also lose his seat for Congress. Collier County can't stand him, that is a very telling story.

[Florida MAGA Godzilla 2.0 @OnlyinFlorida2]

For the record:

Pretty sure you all know where i stand and how much I support President Trump.

But I want to let you all know this endorsement of Byron Donalds won’t move the needle with me.

This endorsement means absolutely nothing to me.

[Karen Simmonds @KarenSimmskk]

@LouisLJJohns It would be a disaster for our Free Red State of Florida. The worst thing to happen to Florida would be this fool

[melanie cee @melliehcee]

Can this please finally be the footage that kills the Donalds campaign?

If I'm Susan Wiles, I have had my head in my hands all afternoon 🤣

[Karen Simmonds @KarenSimmskk]

@TampaDan @ByronDonalds That will
Not happen with Byron

[DeSantis Appreciation Society @KickboxerEsq]

“🔥🔥THEY LOVE PRESIDENT TRUMP. THEY ARE NOT ENAMORED WITH BYRON DONALDS.”🔥🔥

The Toughest LG in the land @JayCollinsFL says what most of us know- despite influencers, FL legacy media & Dirt Sheets calling him “Trump Endorsed Byron Donalds” the GRASSROOTS tell another story.

[CHRISTI REEVES-TASKER @christi4miami]

🇺🇸 Enough already! 🇺🇸 Florida deserves transparency, accountability, and confidence in its elections.

👏 Thank you, @JayCollinsFL.
Once again, Florida's Lt. Governor Jay Collins is stepping up to fight for Floridians.

One thing people should know about Jay Collins: throughout his public service, he's taken on difficult issues—even when they weren't politically convenient. That includes sponsoring legislation to address concerns about communist influence and standing up for the principles he believes protect Florida.

⚖️ Now, unlike the other gubernatorial candidates, he's asking a Florida court to resolve questions surrounding James Fishback's eligibility to appear on the ballot. Rather than leaving the issue to speculation and to later embarrassment for all of us, the lawsuit asks the judiciary to review the facts and determine whether the legal requirements for running for Governor have been met.

The courts exist to resolve legal disputes. Let the evidence be presented, let the law be applied, and let the court decide.

Play-by-play of court proceedings on my podcast @NewsBehindTruth, hosted by @Christi4miami, and my articles on @BananaRepNews 🚨 please follow all three.

[Karen Simmonds @KarenSimmskk]

@SharonC97936831 @Pendragos7 @BrendonLeslie He posted it himself. I mean common sense obviously does not exist

[Karen Simmonds @KarenSimmskk]

Something is definitely fishy

[John Cardillo @johncardillo]

Fishback says he's lived in FL his entire life.

To prove it, he posted an expired DL issued over 10 yrs ago.

It bears the same signature as the 2021 mortgage and DC voter docs where he certified, under penalty of law, that Washington, D.C. was his principal residence.
