It is not only voters, DeSantis is now sacrificing the children with his anti-mask stance. Yesterday, there were 47 children in the ICU in Palm Beach County. Per capita, Florida has the highest infection rate and death rate in the country. At least 10 school boards have defied his anti-mask Order. Yet others, such as St. Johns County (St. Augustine) won't even allow the mask question to be placed on the Agenda. During this crisis, Ron DeSantis has not taken advantage of federal funds available to feed hungry children. He has not distributed funds available to upgrade ventilation systems and other measures to mitigate the spread of the virus in schools. One school has closed because every single teacher has Covid. DeSantis must be stopped in the governor's race next year. He has been traveling the U.S. fundraising off this catastrophe. Florida's media market is expensive. I'm supporting Nikki Fried for Governor. She will need all the financial support she can get. If DeSantis wins, it's on to the presidential race. He is more dangerous than Trump ever was because he's much smarter. He has degrees from Yale and Harvard. He did a stint in the Navy. He is today's Movement Conservative in Chief.

Probably the most important election in ‘22. We can only hope the sacrifices of children will be conscience shock treatment for a benumbed public. Beyond outrageous.

I need to correct/clarify a statement above. I learned this morning that St. Johns County has implemented a mask mandate for staff. The governor's Order was issued under the rubric of a parent's bill of rights, thus allowing the school board to mandate masks for staff. Can we say, this allows some students to pee in their corner of the pool?

Pleased to report the judiciary has some credibility.
