Fla. Gov. Ron DeSantis threatened bloggers...THE KISS OF DEATH

 

Some DeSantis minion, a Republican Florida state senator, proposed a bill that would require bloggers to register with the state if they plan to write about Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.), his Cabinet officers and members of the Florida legislature. You have to have received compensation on your blog for this to apply and, the requirement does not include websites of newspapers or similar sites. Sounds like he is afraid of the 4th Estate but he'd better watch out for the bloggers.

We have a tendency to stick together to defend each other because of the relative recency of this media and the repeated criticism we receive. Some consider us amateurs, but many bloggers have been at it for years and are very good at what they do. When you concentrate on a subject like politics, the kind of blog DeSantis wants to control, you have to commit to facts in your posts, and that is also what the despot DeSantis wants to prevent. The deplorable facts about his record.

In the bill, these morons also want bloggers to file monthly reports according to The Hill...
"detailing where, when and by whom the post was published, plus the amount of compensation received. Failure to file reports could lead to fines."

Just more of DeSantis inspired lunacy: Florida senator introduces bill that could get rid of state's Democratic Party...


You have Big Brother and a heinous violation of the 1st Amendment all rolled into one stupid law. It will never fly in a court of law but these Florida double-digits believe they can control the country because they think DeSantis will win in 2024. Well, he won't, and a recent Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll finds Trump leading DeSantis 46 percent to 23 percent, a 5-point drop in support for DeSantis since last month. We don't want Trump but don't want DeSantis more.

AlterNet says Fascist Ron DeSantis is "afraid of the press" for blacklisting the media at a Dallas GOP event. Here's the scenario...

"We are not able to invite the media," Jennifer Stoddard-Hajdu, Dallas County Republican Party Chairwoman said. "That was the decision of Governor DeSantis' team."

I doubt seriously if the decision was a hard one based on the Right's opinion of the

media being the contra position they hold. Kristy Noble, Dallas County Democratic Party chair said...
"We know fascist Republican Ron DeSantis is afraid of history books, free market capitalism, and kids playing sports, but we didn’t know he was afraid of Dallas County’s local reporters,"

It is well known the tyrant DeSantis has destroyed much of what the state of Florida was but it would take a very short time for national media, and especially bloggers to dismantle the DeSantis machine.
