Gov. Ron DeSantis has enjoyed rock solid support from the Republicans who dominate state politics. It has been rare for DeSantis to get pushback on anything from GOP lawmakers, and he has a reputation for seeking vengeance when they do.

      My boss’s sister works at one of the state parks, this is a petition to try and get them to move on from that one at least.

      Article says 8 state parks, so while outrage is due, the headline is a bit misleading. I wonder how many state parks they have and whether that’s a large percentage.

      The crime here we really should be outraged about is the description of one as “the only undeveloped land along the coast”. Yeah, it’s all a money grab trying to fleece the tourist. But you’re not just taking park land but the only undeveloped land on whichever coast.

    I really wish Dems here in FL could get a better foothold because people here worship this bootleg Trump and now they suffer from their own choices for the 100th time.

      It really does seem like Florida has seen a significant influx of “southerners” since COVID. Hard to believe it was a purple state not long ago (Gillum within 0.5% of Ron). I feel for the tens of millions of reasonably intelligent, non-poisoned voting people there (similar to Texas).

    It’s much less sinister than it sounds. He’s just planning a new Mar-a-Lago for Trump when his prized caddyshack gets seized by the NYAG.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.

  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to “Mom! He’s bugging me!” and “I’m not touching you!” Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
