Florida Style Fascism

 

Florida has a reincarnation of Adolf Hitler as its governor.  His name is Ron DeSantis and Ronnie thinks he will become President of the United States after the 2024 election.  

Ronnie believes this because of his "Florida is a Free State" mantra that he concocted during the Covid-19 epidemic.  Ronnie, in all of his wisdom, fought against Covid restrictions claiming that wearing a mask to protect yourself and others infringed on your "freedom".  More than 80,000 Floridians died because of Ronnie's petulance.  Sadly a majority of the residents of Florida believed that Florida is "free" and re-elected Ronnie as Governor in a landslide in November 2022.

In recent weeks, a bill has been introduced in the Florida legislature that would declare the Democratic Party as non-existent in the state.  In the free state of Florida.  Also, and more disgusting, the same legislature has introduced a bill that would require bloggers who say bad things about the Governor and the legislature to register with the State.  Apparently Ronnie and his supermajority Nazi legislature forgot about Freedom of Speech in the Free State of Florida.

The original purpose of this blog was to tell stories about birds and about travel.  The focus of the blog has now changed to pointing out the absurdity of Ron DeSantis and his "Free Florida" mantra because nothing is free here any longer.  And as I write about Ronnie I will refuse to register with the State.  I still believe in the First Amendment even if our mini-Hitler in Tallahassee does not.
