Special about Ron DeSantis' time at Guantanamo Bay canceled with no explanation

The Hollywood Reporter revealed that Showtime pulled a special by Vice News that went into detail about Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) and his time working as a JAG officer at Guantanamo Bay.

…
The episode, titled “The Gitmo Candidate & Chipping Away,” has been "scrubbed from Showtime’s website and press portal. An email sent to press on May 24 noted that a screener of the episode was available; however, on May 30, a follow-up email noted a different installment, titled 'Detransitioners & Draining the DRC,' as episode four."

No information from the network or Vice has been given about why Showtime canceled the show. The description f the show "hinted at potentially explosive material about DeSantis." Very little information is available to the public about DeSantis' time at GitMo.

“Seb Walker investigates allegations from former Guantanamo Bay detainees that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis witnessed acts condemned by the United Nations as torture during his past service at the controversial detention camp as a Navy JAG officer," the description reads.

In April, a report revealed DeSantis' campaign is haunted by what could drop from the governor's role in the military prison. He has already exploded over questions about the subject.

One inmate said: "I will never forget his face, he was laughing and smiling watching me being tortured on the force-feeding chair."

Repug oppo researchers will be all over this too.

[calimary]

16. I didn't either. Just more material to use against him when the need arises.

Make a note! And/or build a file of uncomfortable info that might prove strategically useful.

[PortTack]

10. DeSantis is one sick man. IMO it sounds like he needs protection form the rest of us.

11. Vice News declared bankruptcy in May.

I have no idea if that had anything to do with the DeSatan cancellation.

~
On May 15, 2023, Vice Media formally filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, as part of a possible sale to a consortium of lenders including Fortress Investment Group, which will, alongside Soros Fund Management and Monroe Capital, invest $225 million as a credit bid for nearly all of its assets.

13. This film is gonna be hard to keep under cover if it's already made.

It will show up, especially since there’s so much mystery around it being silenced

[orleans]

14. hope you're right; fingers crossed nt

[captain queeg]

15. I'm sure he enjoyed his position there and he'd love to use lessons learned

on immigrants. Or anyone else he doesn’t like. Like liberals or any other non Nazis.

[marble falls]

17. Gitmo is a tar baby that one of DeSantis smarter consultants pulled him away from. Too bad. ...

... I'd love to hear about an incompetent junior JAG officers 'war' exploits on Gitmo. Maybe get an appointment at the Hague out of it.

[Chainfire]

19. I can see DeSantis laughing while torturing prisoners.

I think that it is the kind of man that he is.
