BREAKING: After refusing to release critical hospitalization data for months,
@GovRonDeSantis
finally caves to public pressure & reports nearly 7,000 patients CURRENTLY hospitalized w/COVID-19 in Florida. A Friday night news dump if I’ve ever seen it.



...............

He should be up in front of a judge too.

[malaise]

1. Do you mean Governor Ron DiSastrous?

He needs to more than resign - he should be arrested for criminal negligence

[sunonmars]

2. THIS

45. My friends and I have a rather cruder name for him, but...

My dad calls him DeSadist and a coworker calls him DuhRacist.

He's got to go!

[malaise]

46. Those are excellent

I am very worried for one of my brothers in law. He has several medical issues and is truly vulnerable.

[Pacifist Patriot]

51. I'm terrified for my dad.

He's survived three different types of cancer and had a heart valve replacement eight years ago. He is resigned to dying being a foregone conclusion if he is infected.

[malaise]

54. That's awful- hope he stays safe

Everyone in Florida is being exposed because of these goons for the Con

[Pacifist Patriot]

56. He's driving me insane.

My household and my sister's household has been doing curbside pickup for our essential needs for months. My dad is one of those who craves social interaction. He keeps shopping inside Publix. My sister and I are at wit's end with him. He's survived polio as a child, Vietnam as a soldier, cancer (including one that was supposed to be fatal), open heart surgery...I think he thinks he's invincible or something.

[malaise]

57. You have to let him be

or his life won't be worth living. It's hard but he's not going to change now

[Pacifist Patriot]

58. LOL! Very true.

[louzke9]

62. NO, instead make him FULLY AWARE of all the medical FACTS....

THEN let him decide. Death may be at the forefront of COVID, but this father's prior health record is what puts him at FAR GREATER RISK. It causes MAJOR BLOOD CLOTS in the MAJOR ORGANS. Respitory complications kill patients. Imagine blood clots filling your lungs and reducing your oxegen level.

[malaise]

63. Trust me that Pacifist Patriot and her family have already informed him

[sheshe2]

3. I weep for our country.

I damn every Repuke that put greed and politics over the well being of every American that they took an oath to protect.

[Tipperary]

27. This.

Great sadness.

[sheshe2]

28. They are truly evil.

[Tipperary]

34. I agree.

I really never believed in evil until this travesty that has overtaken our country.

[Nevilledog]

4. The lying never stops.

[FM123]

5. We were actually doing okay for a while down here

then he got cocky and trumpy and decided to just let us die, we weren't worth it....

[Buckeye_Democrat]

6. The worst governor in the country!

Sneaky little rat!

He took away Florida's online school program awhile back, so he's trying to kill the kids too.

[ananda]

29. Abbott and Patrick are also very bad here in Texas.

Very bad.

Beto is calling for Abbott's resignation.

I agree!

[Buckeye_Democrat]

31. Yeah, they're in the running.

The Trump-loving idiots.

[dalton99a]

7. Another murderous liar

[warmfeet]

8. So, why would anyone vote for a repiglicon?

This is what they do. Consistently.

Lie, cheat, steal, obfuscate, cover-up.

Really? That is supposed to be the party of personal responsibility? Hmm?

I am at a loss to understand this very silly country.

I don't fucking get it.

[Grokenstein]

10. Republican voters like to fantasize.

Fantasy #1: AHM GUNNA WIN BIG ON SCRATCHERZ SUMDAY N JOIN TEH KLUB
Fantasy #2: MAH CANDITZ GUNNA BEET TEH FUK OUTTA ERRYBUDDY ELSE NOT ME THO
Fantasy #3: SCROO TEH RESSUH SOSIETY AH NEED UH TACKS BRAKE

[SammyWinstonJack]

19. So true.

[DSandra]

23. Yup, much like Colonialists..

Who made up a world where they were civilized and thus justified to take land away from “the inferior savages.”

[warmfeet]

37. That may be.

That way of thinking is entirely anathema to my way of thinking. I do not have the answers but wish I did.

[Wednesdays]

16. *cough* Fox News *cough*

[cheezmaka]

64. Me Neither...

Even some of my friends at church believe it's their Christian Duty to vote Republican because it claims to champion the causes of religious institutions and Christianity. Regardless of the hate, racism, prejudice, disregard for the poor, and Trump doing and saying anything antithetical to Christ's teachings...

[grantcart]

9. Hahahahahahaha

You managed to work dignity into sentence about a Republican Governor.

That ship not only has sailed it transgressed the globe 87 times was moved into a maritime museum and after decades of use was melted down into bullets for WWII some whom were remelted and put onto abridge in Tacoma.

But thanks for the (har her har) image of (he he he he) DeSantis doing anything (ho ho ho) that would protect his public dign-hahahaha( can't stand it someone slap me SLAP) dignity.

[lame54]

11. Good news is...

Disneyworld opens tomorrow

[Buckeye_Democrat]

12. Oh, joy!

As if Florida didn't have enough vectors already.

[Blue_true]

32. It will be interesting to see how that is done.

Disney has been working with Orange County, which has had a mask in public mandate for almost two months.

We recently saw that widespread police brutality protests didn’t lead to a wave of sick people, because of high mask wearing protocol. If Disney requires masks, maybe things work out not badly - but the policy has to be enforced and any pinhead that takes a mask off under the wrong conditions gets his or her ass summarily tossed out.

[RobinA]

40. If Anyone Can Enforce Masks

it’s Disney. And I doubt they want to be known as a Corona vector.

[Blue_true]

41. Plus, given the company's wealth, it will be a big lawsuit target if it badly gets this wrong. nt

[dhill926]

13. can this piece of shit be recalled...

[Traildogbob]

15. Did he

Actually even legally win? He has the old white nationalist in golf cart support. White power👊🏻! White like Ron and Don! (Under the orange)

[Blue_true]

33. No. Florida doesn't have recall for the governor and legislature.

Lower offices can be replaced for cause.

We are going to have to get rid of him via voting.

[dhill926]

38. oy...thx for the info....

[Pacifist Patriot]

52. I wish.

[certainot]

14. 5 fla unis support 20 limbaugh stations as they continue to downplay COVID and

make excuses for desantis

Florida 10, Florida St. 4 Miami 2, South Florida 2, Central Florida 2

they all yelled HOAX! in a COVID theater and they all need to lose their licenses for killing thousands of floridians. not to mention using black athletes to excuse racism and global warming denial

one famous athlete could send all their advertisers except the trumpers scurrying

[Beartracks]

17. Republicans accuse "liberals" of "indoctrinating" university students...

... precisely because that is what conservatives are doing!!

If a Republican accuses a Democrat, or liberals in general, of something, it's a damn sure bet that it is something that Republicans are actually guilty of.

==========

[calimary]

39. Yep. That's about the size of it.

That's how you'll know what they're up to. They'll accuse some Democrat of it.

[certainot]

42. it's amazing how predictable that is. is that an extreme form of denial?

[smirkymonkey]

48. Classic projection.

We should always know that from now on, whenever they accuse us of anything, that they are only revealing themselves.

Unfortunately, too many people are willing to believe their bullshit. Hopefully, by the time this is all over, some eyes will have been opened to the truth.

[Ferrets are Cool]

18. Wannabe dictator nt

[Caliman73]

20. Which Republican do you know, that has dignity? Or a sense of shame?

We had a well liked and respected Senator resign because of a scandal started by a partisan hack, and a pile on by well meaning but misguided people.

We had a representative resign because of an indiscretion that occurred before she ever took office.

Republicans have no shame and have no honor. DeSantis will double down in the stupid and evil.

[keithbvadu2]

21. WOW! 7,000 hospitalized in the last 24 hours.

WOW! 7,000 hospitalized in the last 24 hours.

All new, right?

OK! A wee bit of sarcasm.

[Kyl Notjon]

22. "Should"

But he won't, and we both know that.

[ancianita]

24. We in Florida knew this day would come.

[Lochloosa]

47. Yes we did

[ffr]

25. Criminally negligent.

We're going to need tribunals for these death panel criminals.

[Evolve Dammit]

26. Total immoral and inept governance. Rancid to the core.

[onetexan]

30. This is what happens when incompetent, crooked people are voted into office

who have no business running for any kind of public office.

[GoCubsGo]

65. More like stealing their office.

He's only in there because of voter suppression and other scumbaggery. Much the same as his Dear Leader. And, Brian Kemp in Georgia. And, probably a number of others.

[onetexan]

68. Oh there are plenty of others who get voted in by naive or uninformed people

[Dreampuff]

35. Wow!

And the fact that our new cases are tremendously High each day makes this even worse. We need a new governor. No idea who voted for him, but we didn't. If I remember correctly, it was quite close between he and Gillum.
I still think he has federal government aspirations. The way he has his head up Trump and Pence's butt. There is no other explanation for it. Just another narcissist who couldn't care less about others.

[GeorgeGist]

36. Yale and Harvard should ...

cancel his degrees.

[smirkymonkey]

49. I should think they would be cringing with embarrassment.

How someone like this ever graduated from those two institutions is a mystery to me, but I guess even they make mistakes. Just like U of Penn.

They should really face it. Right-wing politicians are bad for the brand. Hopefully, they will do a better job of vetting candidates in the future.

[Cha]

43. Rt.. :( I have loved one in FLORIDA.. and

even if I didn't

[wishstar]

44. DeSantis was still downplaying situation and denying any problems earlier in the day

He follows the WH playbook to the letter by saying that it's under control

[uponit7771]

50. ***TEXT BOOK CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY***

[Pacifist Patriot]

53. Florida has some pretty expansive public information laws.

I would love to see some attorneys pursue this avenue. I suspect it may be the only legal one available at the moment.

Personally, I hold him responsible for murder. But that is likely in the ethical and moral sense, not in a statutory sense.

[pwb]

55. We are seeing the result of the three month hoax claim

by Trump and Fox News. They are killing us with ignorance and disinformation. There is not always another side to things. Even a pandemic has to be manipulated by the freaks on the right. Sad.

[dlk]

59. If DeSantis actually possessed any dignity or integrity, he wouldn't be a Republican

Instead, he will probably double down on being “right.”

[Generic Brad]

61. I's odd to see "DeSantis" and "Dignity" in the same sentence...

...especially without the words "lack of" sandwiched in-between them.

[sandensea]

60. Talk about sunlight being the best disinfectant

And what with deSatan and all the other vampires in elected office at the moment.

[UTUSN]

66. And he needs to take Texas greg Abbott with him. Lloyd DOGGETT called ABBOTT to resign!

[Pacifist Patriot]

67. DeSantis and dignity in the same sentence. Not a good fit.
