Florida Governor Ron DeSantis delivered a statement about the future of Florida today while visiting Cape Coral on the Southwest coast. During his remarks, the governor highlighted his support for parent’s rights, taking the position that parents should be the ones making decisions for their children on masks, schools and vaccines, not government.
Governor DeSantis promised Florida residents there will be no lockdowns, no mandates, no restrictions and no school closures. Additionally, the governor urged all local communities to follow common sense science and said he will soon issue an order allowing parents or guardians to choose whether their child wears a mask in schools.
“As of today, very few [school districts] are requiring it. Nevertheless, we have a lot of push from the CDC and others to make every single person, kids and staff have to wear masks all day,” DeSantis said during the event. “That would be a huge mistake.” WATCH:

The Florida Education Association (FEA), the largest teacher union in the state, said they will fight the Florida governor on all measures. The teachers union is considering not going back to work with in-person teaching, and has vowed not to give up control of the (k-12) children to the parents. “Governor DeSantis continues to think that Tallahassee knows best what all Floridians need,” FEA President Andrew Spar said in a statement. “We reject that kind of thinking” Spar continued.
“Instead, we ask Governor DeSantis to allow all Florida’s citizens to have a voice by empowering the elected leaders of cities, counties and school districts to make health and safety decisions locally based on their unique needs and circumstances,” Spar said. Emphasizing how the union feels they have more power in the blue and leftist urban area, and they have vowed to fight any conservative effort in the state to undermine the teachers financial interests and control over Florida students.
“Instead, we ask Governor DeSantis to allow all Florida’s citizens to have a voice by empowering the elected leaders of cities, counties and school districts to make health and safety decisions…”
Translation; “DeSantis is tough, and it’s a lot easier to frighten the local rubes into submission..”
All Florida residents who are afraid of the bogeyman virus should simply take the Ivermectin that is freely distributed in their state.
If this is too much for they and their TV people to comprehend, and they would feel safer in lockdowns and masks, then there is still time to move to New York. In fact, there are plenty of New York patriots who would much prefer to live in a free state.
Maybe we can start a new AirBNB program so commies can live with commies and leave us free citizens alone!

the confining of prisoners to their cells, typically after an escape or to regain control during a riot.
“the lockdown has been in effect since October 1983”
IVM is NOT “freely distributed” in FL. Docs are being threatened with loss of license if they prescribe it. My family pharmacist says that he will only fill scrips written to his existing customers, not new 9nes.
If you go on the site FLCCC. com (I think “.com”, maybe “.org”) there is a list of MD’s there.
It is expensive from FLCCC, though: $90 for telemed consult, $250 for ivermectin., no refunds. There are places where ivermectin is sold much cheaper ($20 for the same dosage as that from America’s Frontline Doctors. You really need to dig for these places and doctors though. )
Yes, I have been a follwer of theirs since March 2020. Splendid people. And its dot net.
You can also use Quercitin, Vitamin C, and Zinc (chelated) as a preventive. Quercitin and C act as an ionopore similarly to Hydroxychloroquine.
I’ve been taking Vit C and zinc ever since President Trump suggested it.
Yes, you can get these on Amazon.
Yes, I’ve been on that everyday protocol since March 2020. Hopefully, it will be enough.
No, New Yorkers voted for DeBlasio. Don’t let them near FL, except for their vacation. I was in Idaho for a wedding. Had my car egged 2 different times because of my CA plates. I couldn’t blame them. Red states don’t want us after seeing how messed up we made our states. Lol
I LOVE my governor! As soon as I read, “Allow all Florida’s citizens to have a voice,” I pictured the Facebook page of Alachua County. The continue to require businesses to post mask mandates, and they are very condescending if you post otherwise on their page. Jerks.
Alachua county, home of the vastly infiltrated University of Florida…Same can be said for Leon County, FSU…
Northern Academia has been flooding into southern universities for decades, displacing triditional and regional academics…I know, I had to walk away from these “progressive’s”…The Board of Regents are as corrupt as the local Elections.
I’ve begun substituting the word Antichrists for Progressives. It gives me clarity.
Not just that, but this is to TAKE AWAY THE PARENTS’CONTROL, and give it to other damn gov’t bureaucrats, who might not have been properly elected.
Damn government. I hate these parasites.
If the GOP had a hundred more like Trump and DeSantis, America wouldn’t be going to hell in a hand basket right now.
AMEN
It just blows my mind to hear a leftwing idiot respond to a governor emphasizing the government’s limited role in this “pandemic” and his lack of desire to impose draconian controls over the citizenry as a wish to rule over everyone from Tallahassee. Trying to outflank a right winger on the right. They do this all the time. It blows my mind the number of useful idiots I know who actually believe the right is fascist and wants to control them. In their warped and narrow minds, of course, control is inevitable and desirable, it is simply a fight over who is king. They can’t figure out us folks that just want to be left alone and ruled by no one.
The union can go on strike if it chooses to do so. Since there are plenty of homeschool programs around, the state could have a backup plan to teach remotely with no delay. Education plus parental control…win/win.
And Save a Ton of Money too. Not paying the Commie teachers salaries.
However much they get, it’s never enough money. Never.
There are a lot of retired teachers who would love to teach remotely. Kids would probably get a much better education anyway.
The teachers union is considering not going back to work with in-person teaching, and has vowed not to give up control of the (k-12) children to the parents.
The teachers union is letting “loco parentis” go to their heads!

I have already called my property 5ax dept, and told them I wouldn’t be paying the “schools” portion of my 2121 property taxes if they pull this shit.
The schools BELONG TO US. WE pay for them. They are OUR EMPLOYEES. They need to understand who’s the master and who’s the servant.
The feds don’t govern our schools…WE DO. If local schools need to reject fed funding to remain independent, then so be it.
They can DO MORE WITH LESS, the way the rest of us have had to do since 2008.
So, parents are not permitted to have control over their kids, eh? Sounds like a way to sue the Union for damages to me….
Yeah, the state’s union bosses know what’s best for your kids.
Fire the teachers union. stop paying teachers…Local school districts interview and hire on the spot…bring back all quality retired processional. Provide limited access for parents become PART of the educationL system..Escorte
and purge all liberal communist preverts from the educational system especially universities…
Yes. The current public school system is a failure. We need to dump it and begin at the grassroots level so that control and money for this is all local and approved by parents and fellow community citizens. Period.
Governor DeSantis needs to extend the No Mandates to all business in Florida, especially no vaccination mandates!
Constitutionally, he’s not allowed, nor would you want to have him do that.
Sounds like the teachers union may be breaking their contract. Sure wish he would fire them all like Reagan fired the Air Traffic Controllers.
Love our governor, but I am concerned that his “Headline statements” will embolden the enemy to ship thousands of virus infected immigrants into Miami, Tampa and Orlando…just to jump start
a spike…
They are already doing it.
VOUCHERS the money goes with the parents to the school of their “Choice”, public or private.
Smoke that FEA. A “Reagan” style Lay Off of Commiecrat Teechers is the ticket.
We really need to pass a comprehensive school voucher system so we can take the money out of these failing public schools and put the Teacher’s Union out of power. They use our children as pawns to enrich or empower themselves, regardless of the effect of their policies on these kids.
Not enough. Time to take the gloves off. This is partially information warfare. Alright then. Shape a public information program that deliberately exposes these people. Present the cogent arguments – but go after them individually and in detail. That, after all, is how Obama got on the radar in IL.
Simple solution. Do what Reagan did-fire all the union teachers and hire new ones who want to work.
