People will see…. it might take a little more time than I would prefer, but the truth will come out and people will see.
A judge in Florida is starting to take apart the secrecy operation that Ron DeSantis and his DC Bush clan constructed during their block Trump operation.
DeSantis moved from Congress to the Florida Governor position in 2018; the intent was always to run for President in 2024 and take apart the Trump constructs returning the Republican apparatus to traditional corporate controls.
Part of their lengthy approach was to import some of the Washington DC silo/secrecy functions and overlay them into Florida state politics.
Arguably, Florida had the strongest public record transparency laws in the country, known collectively as “the sunshine laws.” When importing the schemes of DC, in order to support the hidden DeSantis agenda, those sunshine laws were considered a problem. The DeSantis team began changing the rules, subverting laws and demanding support from legislation.
They changed the law so the ‘Top Gov’ could run for President without giving up his office in April 2023. The following month, May 2023, they pressured legislature to change the transparency law on travel. This change kept the governor and top aide’s travel arrangements (who pays, how, etc.) hidden from the public. They made this specific law change retroactive to hide all the Sea Island donors who gave DeSantis private jets to use, while the 2024 campaign was denying they were campaigning in 2022.
Now, a Florida judge is responding to a lawsuit where DeSantis’ lawyers are admitting the governor’s chief-of-staff, James Uthmeier, was arranging/conducting the governor’s official office business on his private cell phone. The governor’s office is admitting personal cell phones were used and yet still rebuking the judge’s prior order to make the call logs public.
Leon County Circuit Judge Lee Marsh is not happy about this.
FLORIDA – […] “We ought to just put out word, ‘Let’s do all of our business on private, bring-your-own cellphones,” Marsh said. “Then we don’t need public records laws because there’ll be no public records, right?”
[…] On Tuesday, Marsh rubbed his eyes and held his head in his hands in apparent exasperation while debating Florida’s public records law with DeSantis’ lawyers.
Marsh noted the state’s definition of “public records” said nothing about data points or whether records needed to be on state property. It defines a public record as “any material, regardless of the physical form, characteristics, or means of transmission, made or received pursuant to law or ordinance or in connection with the transaction of official business by any agency.”
[…] Marsh said the way the administration communicated about the migrant flights “appears to be an end around Florida’s public record laws.”
“This is supposed to be the open free state of Florida, where it’s transparency, and this was done with, you know, Clarice Starling and private emails,” Marsh said. “This smacks of trying to not be open with the records.”
Marsh then questioned why Uthmeier, who described himself in an affidavit in the case as “the highest-ranking nonelected official in the State of Florida,” was using his personal phone for state calls.
[…] “Why is this individual using a private cellphone and thus avoiding public records?” Marsh asked.
“Your honor, I don’t have an answer for that,” Lunny said. (read more)
Now, you might say, ‘With everything going on in the world, why do these granular hindsight details matter right now? Why focus inside our camp?’ The answer is pretty simple….
Think about all the people, even the people reading this right now, that did not know/believe that Florida Governor Ron DeSantis was a con job. DeSantis was part of a lengthy and organized Washington DC operation to eliminate the threat that Donald Trump represented.
Congressman Ron DeSantis, a completely controlled political agent from the corporate camp of the Bushes and the Sea Island team, was recruited to assist as Washington DC’s right-wing insurance policy…. with the intent to maintain or recover the UniParty operation.
This GOP effort was a construct traceable all the way back to 2017, leading to the DeSantis’ shift to Florida governor in 2018. Yet, how many people had any idea?
How many people, throughout 2019 all the way to 2022/’23/’24, realized Ron DeSantis was a set-up by the main DC people who control politics, which included Intelligence Community support?
How many people deny the Florida Dept of Law Enforcement (FDLE) escorted the FBI agents from the airport to Mar-a-Lago in August 2022, and therefore had full operational knowledge of the FBI arrival and intents.
How many people cannot fathom the reality of how the FDLE escort indicates the office of Governor Ron DeSantis was fully aware of the pending FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago?
How many people have the capacity to look back honestly, with hindsight, and see the planning for the 5 days in the bunker, complete silence and invisibility from Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, that immediately followed the FBI raid?
How many people will admit what that reality demonstrates?
How many people deny their intellectually honest understanding and accept that governor’s schedules are planned months in advance… and those 5 days in the bunker were planned and organized with a purpose, that aligned with the schedule of the FBI coming out of Washington DC.
In essence, there was some form of coordination and communication with someone…. DC to Tallahassee, someone!
Immediately following his 5 days in the bunker, DeSantis launched an August/Sept, Oct national tour (example above) … that turned into a “book tour”… that included visits to big billionaire donors in Arizona, Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Jersey and New York, in the months leading up to a FLORIDA election.
Why “campaign” nationally for a Florida election, and then deny you are campaigning nationally for a Florida election?
Can you see it?
Can you see why it is of value to accept what the Deep State does and yet so many people deny?
The example of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis should be a reference point for everyone to accept just how manipulated, controlled, organized and weaponized the systems of our government are that deliver their illusion of choice. And how easy it is to fall for it.
Once the people of Florida realize the scale of the deception, manipulation and lies that have surrounded them…. lies that are now in part surfacing in the court case against the hiding schemes that DeSantis deployed…. then perhaps the Great Awakening will have a bigger context!
….There are trillions at stake!
.
Oh, and hey, the people who took the COVID-19 shots…. Well, they ain’t vaccinated either.
.
Everyday now, the demons web of deceit is seeping out, slow at first then all of a sudden.
“Come out it will” Yoda
Ultra-MAGA!
I live in Florida and DeSantis has done a good job in the State. Florida would be a train wreck if DeSantis lost to the gay meth head, Gillum. What DeSantis has done to Trump is despicable, but he’s the best Governor in the country.
“Other than the assassination Mrs. Kennedy, how was the parade?”
THIS ^^ I am so tired of the BS about how he is a great gov. NO I live here too and every single thing he has done these past 2 years has been a “show” for click bait for his run for President. PERIOD. He gives a rats ass about the residents here. I am equally as angry at my reps in the legislature who have spent 2 years rubber stamping his agenda with no questions asked. I wrote to both my reps when all these laws were being passed and BEGGING them not to. No response, just rubber stamping. I plan on voting BOTH of them out when I can. Florida politics I have found are as dirty as NJ where I left…I no longer pretend…
Where isn’t it filthy with malfeasance and graft?
Everywhere, Eliza.
RDS is one of the selected worse because he duped so many into believing he is a good guy.
No one would say the California’s mannequin is a good governor. But for RDS many are still holding their hopes for a return of the “old good ways”.
they are typically former Romney or Ted Cruz supporters
lacking critical thinking skills when NOW all the facts have
been out there for some time for both of them
Exactly.
Let’s stop pretending that those who are filthy with malfeasance and graft are the best in government. They need to know that we are not going to take this crap and they will be gone if they don’t stop working against us as soon as the election is over. Turn up the heat!
The four pillars of government are malfeasance, graft, theft and murder. That makes Hillary and Nancy the best EVER!
The four horsemen of RINO and Swamp politicians!
Money talks…… integrity walks.
The way I measure which Governor is MAGA and which is a fraud is by how they implemented the election process…
is Florida using paper ballots and one day voting or is it still using machines?
Machines you say? Yup. No. Then it’s a fraud. They still want the finger on the scales in case it doesn’t go their way.
Yessiree Michele, I stopped pretending when I turned double digits in age. That was 64 years ago!
Dirtier, ma’am. I was born here and it’s always been crooked as a barrel of snakes. That said I wouldn’t live anywhere else. I just wish we could have leadership that is as excited about being a Floridian as we are.
Correct. The big “show.”
And, Citizens Ins. is asking for another rate increase which they’ll get.
No single issue has been neglected more for Florida residents than the pervasive insurance scams.
And that scumbag knows it.
How true about insurance scams. I feel your pain. We live in southern OK, and our home owners insurance just skyrocketed from $3600 to over $11k. Never mind affordable housing if there’s no affordable insurance.
True we have tornadoes instead of hurricanes, and this year’s been bad. But there’s no justification for that type of gouging, anywhere. Our bank manager said it’s going to get worse. (see SD memes in article)
I now live in South Dakota–The state with the best woman governor in the US(BS)—If you believe that then I have a bridge over the East River I will sell you.
Yes it was sad when I realized the real truth about Noem, for she was the reason I moved to South Dakota. Once I understood the real truth about Noem, I could not help but wonder about DeSantis and Abbott. Do believe DeSantis blew his cover due to his own selfish greed. As much I want to believe that there are still good governors out there I just can’t help but have doubts about Abbott. Time will tell for as all of us know, there are still many many RINOs out there who have still been able to maintain their disguise.
However, I don’t regret the move for I do feel far safer then I did and would in NE Oregon. If crap hits that fan, which seems more and more probable every day the election gets closer I am so much safer here in the Black Hills of SD, then the west coast.
For now my faith is ever so more powerful then everything else.
God is in Control.
Yes I also moved to FL for the “best gov” and got rolled. LOL. My hope is that this state can pull itself around somehow. I am starting to realize that the “best gov’s” are really the QUIET ones…the ones that do NOT want the national stage…..looks to me like Alabama and Louisana may have 2…I know TX and GA do NOT…
What actually scares me the most with states like Florida, and Texas is the number of new illegals that have settled into those states in the last year or so.
Call me paranoid, but i don’t think the illegals are coming across for a better life in America, but to help the Globalist to destroy America.
All one has to do is look at the demographics of the people crossing illegally. Number of families crossing is way less then 30%. Over 2/3s of the people crossing are males of military age on their own.
Unlike 10 or so years ago, the percentage of people from overseas countries like Iran, China, Pakistan and other Anti-American countries has risen tremendously . Some seem to think these middle eastern males just want to get out of their war torn communist type countries. However once they know/think they cannot be removed their hate of America and Americans comes out, even from the majority of the illegals originating from the Latin American countries.
Both Abbott and DeSantis trafficked migrants to the Northeast on taxpayer money under the guise that they were punishing Democrat cities and states. They are part of the UniParty open borders operation to spread them all across this country. Abbott’s efforts on the border have been largely ineffective, done mostly for optics. They are both UniParty snakes.
I read here a ways back as Gov. Hotwheels and DeSeaIslandsantis were doing the human smugglers jobs for them trying to score cheap political points, Gov. Gruesome was/is loading Commifornian street junkies onto busses and piping them out to Florida & Texas..
Always wondered why they didn’t just ship them back across the southern border, especially Abbott from Texas.
During covidiousy I was shuttling between the Peoples Republic of DeWhine and Florida and it was a whole lot better in Fl.
Having Sundance explain the Kabuki was a real disappointment.
I have gotten to the point I trust very little and that is a sad state of affairs.
Trust in Jesus.
He will never let you down.
I think that Louisiana probably does not …..
https://lailluminator.com/briefs/gov-landry-enacts-law-that-lets-officials-ignore-public-records-requests/
Also homeowners insurance is a mess and he seems unwilling to do anything.
Sounding familiar?
Also State Rep. Les Farnum needs to go. He sponsored that public records bill.
Maybe Arkansas? Time will tell.
Sarah Huckabee Sanders in Arkansas.
And though he is anything but quiet, the soon to be Governor of North Carolina, Mark Robinson.
Mark Robinson is the real deal!
Sho’ nuff!
Will Mark Robinson be the first MAGA governor elected??
DeSantis, Noem, Abbott, etc., are products of the Uniparty because that was the only mechanism until MAGA. Until MAGA, how could someone get elected to a state office?? There was no way to do it, you had to make deals with DNC or GOP, and kiss the ring or make promises and allegiances to the people who work only to get more power or riches for themselves.
GOP/DNC are the same, not a choice.
Robinson will win. MAGA
Abbott is a full blown globalist. Period.
Well don’t look favorably at Alabama, Governor Kay Ivey. China Kay.
Now we see how the multitudes will accept the “peace” that Satan offers the world. I can hear the same arguments now….”just imagine how bad things would be if it weren’t for Satan’s peace.”
“Let my hopes be slain by the sword of truth rather than nourished on the bread of lies. God forgive that we should prophesy smooth things for ourselves, while the pen of justice is signing our death-warrant!”
Sometimes nothing speaks louder than silence.
And for me nothing marked DeSantis for what he is more than his silence on the Mar-a-Lago Gestapo raid.
I was actively listening for something….anything…from him.
Silence, silence all was silence…
Deafening.
At time, I was wondering why he allowed it in his state!
I never liked him, btw. Or his trying-too-hard wife.
Maybe you missed the point that he’s a full on DC / DS driven fraud. He’s nothing but the marionette.
It’s a hard habit to break – pretending to not see or know things. For some it may be the task of a lifetime.
Thus the gleeful masking and eventual cattle cars, Same script, different day, continuously. I wish I could say it wasn’t so, but it is.
All to willing to subvert the laws of FL and change them to His benefit.
A poorly dressed one at that …
Those boots are made for crawlin,
and that’s just what he’ll do,
one of these days those boots,
will crawl all over you…
All Boot, No Scoot, Or Boogie!!
Many people still don’t realize that Soy Boy RD spent 3 terms in the U.S. House of Representatives before his gubernatorial run. He solidified his Swamp Rat bona fides by voting for both the Trans Pacific Partnership and its trans Atlantic counterpart. He probably came up on the Bushies’ radar when he was attending Yale.
Ok, now take that argument and consider why those policies, that mimic MAGA, were allowed to be put in place. Now add to that the margin of the win and why the cheating mechanisms weren’t used in Florida in 2020.
RDS is a snake in the grass as SD just described. Fooled a lot of us at first until we looked at his congressional history and donors. He is sitting in a swing state. Whatever helps get that state into PTrumps win column is necessary. The state is booming right now and has been for a number of years so something is going well. You think it’s all being ALLOWED to happen and the people and MAGA have no say in it?
Absolutely!
This step of logic seems too large for many.
No vote steal = huge conservative win. Vote theft = wonky outcomes in clearly conservative locales.
My take is that the spooks and their lawfare assets made sure that Desantis became governor of Florida by clearing out the vote fraud operations in Miami-Dade and Broward counties just before the election. The voting stats from those counties are very interesting since then. Prior to that, Florida was a swing state by the numbers. Very suspicious.
Why have we not been as successful in Atlanta, Philadelphia, Milwaukee, Detroit, Phoenix, etc.?
The whole state of CA has this problem. The voter rolls haven’t been purged for decades and a ballot is mailed to every registered voter, real or not. There are very few limits on ballot harvesting and no enforcement of violations as long as the right candidate wins.
I only beat my wife *if* she deserves it – other than that we have a great marriage. Sheesh!!
Now that sounds like a good policy. I mean…have you heard his wife?
I live in Florida also.
Tell everyone how great the home and auto insurance rates are; and how you liked lockdowns where you couldn’t even walk on a deserted beach alone. Or maybe how all the stores have new foreign workers that don’t speak English while native born Americans are complaining about cut hours.
That governor?
Ian destroyed my escape pod in Florida.
I can’t afford to reestablish when motor home park lots are going for thousands!
It’s now a core part of every retirement development.
Would you please elaborate?
Thank you!
Native Floridian. The ‘canes, home insurance, & auto insurance rates drove me out last year. Sold for 7x what I paid just 7 years before. Paid cash for a farm in the foothills along the Ohio. Home insurance is 1/8 what it was. Auto went from 285 mt to 64 mt for the same truck and better coverage. All good.
That truth acknowledged, the insurance rates in FL were a constantly growing problem for decades, long before DeSantis came along …as was the invasion of Spanish speakers who refused to learn English …and, especially in south Fl, the huge rise in jobs requiring bi-lingual speakers. All over the US, virtually every bit of growth Biden crows about has gone to foreign born or P/T, 2nd jobs. Employment for native born has actually fallen substantially. Dig into the BLS #s, they are deliberately hiding those numbers, not politically correct.
Plenty to fault DeSantis for but it hurts your credibility when you fault him for problems that were there long before he came down the road.
The lockdowns that I experienced in FL were primarily driven by local politics, not state. I saw much worse in other states. NY was a freak show. People would attack you if you didn’t have a mask on.
Really?
They were doubling every 2-3 years??? Same with property taxes?
And legislation passed and policies enacted on his watch for exacerbating the problem?
I came here several years ago because it was better than one state up.
And now it’s better on those issues to consider going back.
And not driven by the state? Our mayor claimed that they were following policies and recommendations (funding tied to such) from the state.
And how did you see in those other states?
Puhleese. My credibility is fine. What just happened to yours?
Dang. “Certainly got those minerals, ain’t you, Tommy?”- Turkish – “Snatch”
We need to have a CTH potluck dinner out in The Middle Of Redneck Nowhere, FL! Waccasassa Bay, perhaps!
Can I drive down from oHIo?
Yes
I got cracklin and datil peppers for the Cornbread.
Don’t threaten me with a good time!
Count me in! Seriously. [maybe we should move this to the Open Thread?]
Got news. The United States, including FL, is going to be train wreck if DeSantis, and likewise his cronies, ever achieves the office of POTUS. FYI Trump represents MAGA and DeSantis accepted employment by the uni-party as a candidate for POTUS expressly for the sole purpose of destroying DJT /MAGA as a threat to their wealth and power at any cost agenda.
This life is so short. All that wealth and power they will do anything to hoard is nothing, vapors – that evaporate with our last breath. Naked we came, naked we go…. what we do take with us is the indelible impression of our life’s work, what we did for our neighbors, families, communities and country. Make every day count for truth and above all, love. Pray for their souls…
Had to clean out dad’s garage to sell out and my son pointed out a man’s life gets tossed into a dumpster after he is gone.
mycroft: I learned this when my father passed away. Material items are not important. It’s the genetic heritage, education, learned behaviors and memories that are important.
You conveniently forget that their path to wealth and power, although possibly short lived, is littered with what they term and consider as acceptable collateral damage. And that collateral damage does and can, from an historical perspective/reality, impact the well being and lives of our friends and family. My job as head of the family is to stand in the path of any destructive force intended to hurt or harm them while fostering an environment where they can enjoy their lives to the fullest. However, I cannot force my adversaries/enemies to partake of God’s word and promise. That is an individual decision that they have to make between themselves and God and God has already given them the ability, if they desire, to make that choice.
I got news, too. The United States is already a train wreck.
Well if you think that it is is not redeemable, then hope you have arranged for a suitable plot.
Here in Louisiana, we have a great Governor, Landry and he’s surrounded by rock solid Conservatives. Watch the recent news where he signed maybe 20 bills for our good – former guv destroyed us – one of which was the Ten Commandments in every classroom.
Talking heads outside here blew a gasket. Basics, people, basics!!!
Rons “the best governor in the country”.
Best based on what criteria and documented by what primary sources?
Perhaps still repeating mantras taught by trusted Conservative Media opiners rather than researching, pondering then arriving at ones own conclusions…..
or choosing to have NO OPINION until one has enuf knowledge to have an opinion worth considering much less sharing?
Wisdom == truth seeking questions; rarely opinions; especially opinions that are prematurely believed to be established facts.
Well said Cozette…it galls me when people repeat this line being nothing more than a talking point of the ConInc media and influencers….Anyone that says this or has said it lost immediate credibility in my eyes…..
That’s his role in the kabuki theater that is the uniparty.
He’s been “allowed” to be the “MAGA” governor to bleed off the uninformed from President Trump.
Everyone in public office is controlled to the extent necessary to maintain the illusion. Those who resist will be neutralized if they pose too much of a problem. Scandals are easily created.
Sure he was great if you ignore that housing in FL is unaffordable. Insurance is through the roof and not slowing down. Utilities have gone up and up. Almost all his culture war grand standing has been over turned by the courts or local officials ignore him. His real Covid record was bad. He went awol from the state for a year and destroyed public transparency laws. Great governor. This is like saying Bryan Kemp is a great governor for Georgia other than when he helped Biden steal 2020! I mean Stacy Abrahams right?!
If Gillum had won that election, Florida would be about the same. All of the good stuff which has happened in Florida has been the result of the super-majority conservative Florida state legislature. They could have passed all the same laws, and over-ridden Gillum’s veto, even if Gillum had won.
The same legislature that approved the change of laws to shield the shenanigans of RDS?
Abbott is not a great governor, but he is by far better than DeSantis. He wouldn’t have played the role DeSantis did.
Yes …and no. I’m a native-born Floridian …hard to find these days. Too damn many Yankees are retiring here from blue states, bringing their politics, and slowly but surely changing FL to a purple state.
Yes, Gillum would have been a disaster and DeSantis has successfully implemented far more of the MAGA agenda than any other state governor. If he runs to replace Rubio, I’ll support him again unless a better candidate emerges. Perfection is the enemy of good.
But the reality is that you can’t separate what his agenda here has been from the facts that Sundance has established. His agenda was and is driven by his personal ambition to co-op the MAGA movement much as McConnell did the Tea Party movement.
StanH’s quote “Other than the assassination Mrs. Kennedy, how was the parade?” is very much to the point.
You just referred to “here” in this reply as if you are here in Florida.
But up thread in a reply to me, you claimed that you sold out and moved to Ohio.
And you claim you will support Meatball if he runs against Rubio?
How you gonna do that from Ohio, as you claimed you moved to up above?
And you questioned my credibility regarding Meatball?
😃 😀 😄 😁 🤣
Ha ha ha. Operating the Governor’s Office while circumventing Public Records Laws by using personal cell phones, changing the law to make the governor’s travels a secret RETROACTIVELY as well as the future, lying to Americans when “campaigning” for POTUS by saying that its just a book tour, knowing in advance that the FBI was going to raid Mar-a-Lago the property of a POLITICAL OPPONENT (take out Trump/insert Meatball), and changing the law to allow Ron! to stay in as governor while campaigning for president.
Your infatuation with him is similar to someone who says about their spouse, “Sure, s/he is a liar, cheater, secret-keeper, evasive, unethical, law breaker, law bender, phony and a gaslighting manipulator BUT s/he is a good provider and keeps a clean house.”
I take responsibility for Ron DeSantis becoming governor.
As a native Floridian, I did the best research I could at the time and, once again, selected what I felt was the best choice among what was available. Hindsight, coupled with continuing education offered by Sundance and other wise Tree Dwellers, has taught me to be more involved in the grassroots selection of local and state officials.
Now that you all know to blame me for Florida’s governor, I’ll give you even more ammunition to throw. I agree with kennyp that DeSantis has done good things for my home state. Once again, hindsight and history show many bad things have transpired. Sundance’s current analysis helps show what forces were at work to get us to this point in time. The question now is how to proceed to change the dynamic. Back to the previous paragraph, work hard to be involved in grassroots politics. Influence others to do the same.
It’s a simple matter to look back and say “what an awful thing y’all did to elect such a lousy governor”. It is quite another thing to have been here at the time of decision given the choices available. “Just don’t vote.” That’s a decision you might have made, not one I have ever made.
So, I gave Florida a really terrible governor. I apologize. Throw the rotten tomatoes, please. They’re softer.
That’s a low bar–he’s better than… Gillum?? Seriously?
Give me a break. Yes, seriously. Like choosing between wet and dry pine for your furnace when what you really want is seasoned oak …but all you have is pine. Gonna get creosote either way but at least the dry pine will burn. Gillum is a drug-soaked piece of Marxist shit, DeSantis is no saint but he’s a far sight better than Gillum.
No. Gillman sucks but at least everyone knows what he is.
Meatball was a lying, conniving back stabbing IC controlled POS.
The point I was trying to make is this: Meatball had better be better than Gillum!
That’s the heart of the terrible argument that makes him a great gov.
He had to do a good job. That’s how it was planned. Stand tall against the cultural leftist nonsense but ignore the national requirements to shrink the deep state power in DC.
If he’s so good , then keep him!
You keep playing that tape in your head about what a great governor he is. He is corrupt as it gets. He does not give a damn about Florida.
Best in the country? I wouldn’t go nearly that far. Did you even read the article? He’s scum.
If he was setting up to lure Trump voters, he had to pull those voters in. He became “Trump clone”with no baggage. How much would change when he became President? It would have been a RINO movement to the “middle” and not following through with the MAGA MOVEMENT. That was the Bush deception plan.
Kenny,
you are completely ignoring the overwhelming numbers the Republicans have in your state leadership. THEY are the “think tank”, the innovation. They write the laws and pass the laws and DeSantis signs, makes speeches and takes the credit.
NEVER forget, without Trump, he would not have been gov, AND, he lost his own state to Trump and he lost his RED capital city to the democrats. Worse, I think he is intel community connected, and many in his campaign were also. First clue, summa cum laude and enters military, redacted military records, Guantanomo accusations regarding torture of prisoners including the mysterious “suicide” of three prisoners on same night (find and read article about circumstances as related by guardsman), DOJ job, and his MO around everything.
C’mon Man!
HOA fees rising
Insurance rates rising
both uncontrollably
to the point where people have to sell because they cannot afford the rising prices
try again with the best governor in the country nonsense
Plain and simply bull hockey~
The Cabal hates sunshine…it’s their kryptonite!
Thanks for bringing the sunshine, Sundance!
Great Great summary! Now if only my husband will let me READ it to him so he can understand what he can’t see. And love the last line too.. Thank you Sundance!
….Or, trade him in for a …newer model…
LOL! 53 years with him is way too late! Besides, he has other great qualities.. but he is conservative, just not interested in the details.. I have to overlook some basic lack of political knowledge. He thinks I spend too much time on the details. But I want details! Everyone should want details..
I think we’re married to the same man. 🤣🤣🤣
“Amen to all the above”
If Meatball had somehow managed to win the nomination, the same investigations into his campaign occurring now would have been held as leverage over him and members of his team.
3500 lb bombs aren’t for Gaza, they’re for Hezbollah.
White House fears Netanyahu visit – Politico
US officials are worried that the Israeli leader could stage a “politically dicey spectacle” just months ahead of the election
The White House is reportedly becoming increasingly concerned that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu could use his upcoming speech in the US Congress to publicly criticize President Joe Biden and his administration’s response to Israel’s war in Gaza.
Netanyahu is set to address a joint session of Congress next month, and “no one knows what he’s going to say,” an unnamed US official told Politico on Saturday.
Earlier this week, the Israeli leader posted a video accusing Washington of “withholding weapons and ammunition to Israel” for several months, calling it “inconceivable.” Netanyahu defended his public criticism as “absolutely necessary after months of quiet conversation that did not solve the problem,” in an interview published on Friday.
The US paused the delivery of 3,500 bombs to Israel in early May amid calls for it to scale back its assault on the densely-populated city of Rafah in southern Gaza.
This is all about pressuring Trump to give BiBi a blank check. He shouldn’t.
Notice that Sundance offered a food for thought meal and invited people to read his meal then react to what he was sharing?
Notice when someone inserts something totally unrelated into the dinner conversation?
OG /pol/ used to call such inserts SLIDES.
Slides == a psy warfare tactic to slide people away from a problematic conversation.
Bait offered. Bait taken. Prey hooked and reeled away.
In this case the cue word bait being tested == Bibi, Gaza and Hezbollah
#PsyWarSavvy. #BonApetit
Connection to this post about RDS aka Meatball?
Israel / Gaza on a domestic subject?? 👀
I am guessing it was a simple mistake and Pegon thought he was posting on the Daily thread which is usually at top of the front page 😉
Netanyahu must be taking a page out of Zelensky’s playbook.
Zelensky doesn’t have a playbook of his own. There is only 1 playbook and they are all using it.
Bernie, the Jewish guy, said he isn’t attending the speech.
Thank you never seems to be enough to say – but really, Thank You for all your work and words Sundance.
People need to understand the depth of the problem so we will have an idea of where to begin fixing things, and as a Democrat politician, Patrick Moynihan, once said – all politics is local. And that includes city, county and state arenas.
Yes – and no. While understanding what Moynihan meant, from another perspective all politics in today’s world is global, as there are global forces driving events down to the lowest level through funding, policies, organizations, and effectively bribe money in the form of funding if they’ll only do this one little thing that is intended to make their local society better…
So the problem is Global, and the solution is Local.
Everything good and righteous starts with prayer.
Amen.
^^This^^
Sundance provides timely food for thought as does this reaction about all politics being local.
Relevant to the much hyped, especially in some quarters, political fight still going on in Virginia between Trumps endorsee, challenger McQuire and incumbent Rep Good, the “principled” conservative head of The Freedom Caucus” who endorsed Ron DeSantis while claiming to represent the MAGA Movement?
Relevant that Steve Bannon backed, and still backs, Good rather than President Trumps guy claiming that the De Santis backing Good == the true MAGA candidate and that President Trump was hoodwinked (lol) I to backing a RiNo?
Projection perchance from “sloppy Steve”?
Despite acknowledging that we are in a WIN or DIE war with just 134 DAYS left, and despite being a West Point grad he often seems to forget the importance of Chain of Command discipline and/or difficulty accepting that President Trump is our Commander in Chief in this war.
” We hang together now or we lose and hang separately “.
Thank you for pointing out the obvious.
Dangerous territory, though. For some around here, Bannon is the Second Coming of the Christ.
Thank you for pointing out the relevance of Bannon’s support for “Good”. I don’t trust Bannon, although he talks a good game in between the infomercials on his show. I have to wonder how much influence he really has with President Trump. I suspect not as much as it appears.
Exactly – ‘we hang together now or we lose and hang separately.’
We have to accept our responsibility in this mess and do everything we can to pay attention, stop falling for the loud hype-masters, and make knowing decisions.
Steve Bannon is a loose cannon. Always has been. Always will be.
Extremely loose. He daily talks about the retribution that is coming if Trump is elected all the while Trump is delivering a different message. Trump fired him once for getting too big for his britches and frankly I don’t see that his size has changed. Can anyone really stomach his sidekick, Raheem? Honestly, the guy gives the most wordy and loosely constructed word salads almost on a daily basis.
The sense of betrayal that takes one’s breath away becomes the moment when you hold your breath focused on a target.
So many targets…
So little time
“… which included the Intelligence Community support.”
Pushaw – Meatball staff member; CIA / State color revolution asset;
>> as Dutch says along and is correct, the FBI must have local (or state) LEO assistance when serving a warrant. Therefore, Meatball knew about the raid ahead of time as state LEO were involved.
All Roads Lead to Langley!!! 👀
😃 😀 😄 😁 🤣 😂
Oh and BTW, Uthmeir’s connection to the IC? Law clerk for Rubio of the infamous SSCI 2012-14. 👀
Small world, isn’t it?
More on Uthmeier:
Served under Wibur Ross at Commerce during Trump Administration.
Ross worked for the ROTHSCHILDS for 24 years in prior life. <<
Wanna go down a rabbit hole? See all of Ross’ background. 👀
Let’s not forget that the “gov” let Capital Police set up an office out of Tampa.. He let’s them round up the states Jan 6th “insurrectionist” freely and without comment. I loathe this man more than words. Angry Florida resident here…
You’re right, Michele!!!
Let it slip my mind.
Thanks for pointing that critical info out for others to see.
😎
I live a mile from where they had a literal manhunt with choppers and police dogs hunt a poor guy down. I was incensed….
Yep.
Pushaw…is she back in Georgia ”helping”
with the newest attempt at
Color Revolution there?
I haven’t heard anything about her lately.
Indeed, it does seem to be a “small world “.
😵💫
On Meatball’s staff, allegedly.
Her online bio has changed so many times since I started researching her a few years ago, it is ridiculous.
Usually around dates of things she was involved in because of her alleged age of 33-34.
She has now claiming she hasn’t ever worked in government. 👀
A newer, but unconfirmed, allegation is that 2 former grad students who attended grad school with her claim that she told them she has been born in Ukraine but ‘adopted’ by Americans.
She is and has been a deep undercover spook for a long time, imo.
Signs have been there since day 1 and keep growing.
I think she is waaaay older than mid thirties!
Me too!
IIRC, before one of her bio ‘scrubs’ and rewrites, based on what it said then about her early years abroad, I calculated her age to be in her early to mid 40s, minimum with an outside age of about 50.
I wonder if she let a few psi of that fetus derived collagen out of those lips? It is sad to see fancy people go to far with their vanity projects.
OMG, Louis CKesque humor in the Treehouse!
Whoa, I am not a joke thief. These things just pop iny head. Louis was pretty good until he turned out to be a “real jerk”. I kinda quit watching most Holloweird in the last few years. It’s my understanding baby parts are highly sought after in the anti aging racket.
Thanks GRM
Kari Lake ?
When Charlie Kirk and Meatball
showed up with an event,under the
guise to support Kari
for Governor…😡😡🤬
I listened to his speech
about how great he thought he
was….all the while knowing that
what he was spouting….AZ government
had already done months before
Florida had….and better.🤬🤬
I still get peeved just thinking
about it. Kirk and DeSanctimonius
are/were toxic.That was August 2022.
Sundance had cued us in on the
”game plan” for Meatball long
before the Az “rally”.
Made it easier to see “the strings”.
I caught a lot of flack from Florida
relatives when I told them what was
happening. Made my original comments
stated my point. 😉 They never talk
about Meatball anymore😊.
Kari had her election stolen.
Florida has a “ghost “ for Governor.
Agree here. Charlie Kirk has come up often lately hasn’t he? The pushing of JD for VP and his initial all out push for Rhonda….I remember when every other phrase out of his mouth was “the best gov in the country”…then this TPA invite to come and speak literally right after the “book tour” was announced…all my suspicious cat hackles are up lately on Charlie Kirk lately….he has DJT’s ear too much as well. There is a LOT of danger here…
Kirk is activating a lot of young, ill informed, enthusiastic voters.
This is a good thing.
The youth vote matters, but as stated they are often ill informed and easily manipulated.
He is NOT a Trumper, despite his current support. I sense he is in President Trump’s corner only until he senses a weakening of support or an opportunity to replace PT on the ticket due to some unforeseen circumstance. Then he’ll flip to Vance.
In the meantime, pushing Vance for VP positions Vance to step into the Presidential spot if and when PT is impeached a third and final time.
I believe the uniparty is positioning to control Congress in anticipation of PT’s blow out win in Nov that they may not be able to control. They only have to “manage” PT for a few years and then resume their agenda in 2028. The VP position is part of this.
I don’t believe President Trump is going to play their game.
I hope you’re correct about Trump and VP pick. Trump’s VP will be clear frontrunner for 28, unless the Uniparty can take Trump out of office and tie the VP up in the bundle.
Trump/Carson 24!!
I agree about Kirk getting the young people more involved and the college conservative things he does. But that is where it stops. My Spidey sense with him lately has been off the charts…again he came out of the gate straight up with Rhonda being the best “gov” and was the VERY FIRST “book tour” event out of the gate with him…that smells to me…
Michele thank u. I got flack from TX relatives that thought Bushes hung the moon. The Bush-Rove cabal headquartered in TX is dangerous. Jeb helping in all the FLA manipulation I am sure. Kirk a red flag, yes.
She’s been pretty quiet lately. Primary approaching and I have seen no signs and received no mailings.
In fact, in my regular stomping grounds in north Maricopa the Republican Senate primary has gone virtually silent.
Kari made a serious mis-step when she called her primary opponent Sheriff Lamb a coward. He’s been a popular sheriff and his son, fiancee, and baby were killed by a drunk driver. Didn’t go over well.
Something is “off” with him in my opinion, because early on he was working with True the Vote to expose 2020 election fraud and then went quiet.
On a state level, lots of shenanigans. Grassroots efforts seem strong, however state Republican party seems to continually be in disarray. But that’s always the case here in AZ.
Hopefully others will weigh in from other areas.
Isn’t she kind of “squishy” about abortion, too?
“Disarray” is putting it mildly. And richer is STILL in play in Maricopa…
Lamb on record saying that there was no election fraud in 2020. He is a spoiler . Gee, funny how so many elected officials have their minds changed by a personal tragedy…..almost like it was no accident.
Yes
The Uniparty will attempt to rehabilitate the Meatball later, so yeah, it’s good that he’s being exposed. It’ll deliver the necessary data to crush him, if the need arises in coming years. I doubt this stooge ever had the chops for complex work or even running a proper campaign, given it took Trump to get him over a crackhead opponent in FL, but the Uniparty will prop him up again if they can.
Plus, FL should be governed by FL law, not Rove’s fancies.
Of course they’ll “rehabilitate” him. Joe Biden fought against Roe v Wade. He fought integration. He was best friends with a Grand Wizard of the Klan. He dropped out of a race for POTUS in shame after a plagiarism scandal. He wrote the crime bill that imprisoned millions of young black men (for doing what his son has done). He’s responsible for our 401K withdrawals being taxed. He’s said, “You aren’t black if you don’t vote for me.” He stole top secret documents, held them for years and used them to make millions on a book. If the uniparty wants you in power, the past doesn’t matter.
Casey has more cajones and more on the ball than he does. Did she really have cancer or was she threatened and scared to death? Asking for a friend.
Friends and I were wondering about the “cancer” diagnosis as well.
Quickest recovery I’ve ever seen. No chemo, no surgery…??
“The uni party will prop him (Ron) up again if they can”.
Perhaps the ” prop him up” op is in a public testing-the-waters phase via a still going on proxy fight in Virginia between Trumps candidate, McGuire, and Team Rons candidate, the “principled” coservative who is more of a
MAGA patriot than PDJT, Rep Good.
Notice which MAGA influencers are backing the guy who endorsed Ron rather than the guy endorsed by President Trump?
Notice these MAGA influencers, especially have pulled this same undermine-President-Trumo over and over again since 2015 while still claiming to LOVE and support President Trump and Trumps MAGA Mission?
Notice the reasons given by these MAGA influencers boil down to iterations of I-Know-Better hubris?
Pride leads where?
Who famously said, “better to reign in hell than serve in heaven”?
For over a year I heard him say when asked, “I have no interest in running for President in 2024”
Meatball 🧆 is a liar. Don’t forget that.
Is government the problem? Greed? It sems like too much work and scheming to pull off. And are all of these people corrupt?
Yes.
How can you be here and not realize that of course a bloated Federal government and even more dangerous bureaucracy are the problem?
Yes, yes, yes. People are sinners, we live in a fallen world, satan is the god of this wicked age.
Government is just one cog in the machine that Satan uses to rule (temporarily) this world.
He also infests religion, economies, sexual morality, attitudes about family, ethics, the arts; essentially every field of human concern.
Our true enemy is not based in DC, he just has a branch office there.
There is no sin more repulsive than betrayal.
Arthur asks Merlin in Excalibur what is the most important quality of a knight. He answers “truth” and says, “When a man lies, he murders some part of the world.”
I would say “He murders some part of Himself”
Upon reading your comment, my own mind instantly thought of the medical profession and all the doctors who have betrayed their oath and their patients and upon thinking about it, coming to the conclusion that it was a far worse as a result of the deaths and torture involved (the torture of isolating people, particularly the elderly, and forbidding them direct contact with family members and loved ones. That torture also ultimately led to many of their deaths).
Yes and that the American people let their local hospitals and Drs off the hook. How tragic.
I believe that 90% of the politicians who identify as republican don’t want Trump to succeed therefor they don’t want the people and the country to succeed. Their only interest is enriching themselves and Trump is a threat to the gravy train. Is DeSantis doing fairly well for us in the stat of Florida but, is that because he believes in what he is doing or is it only a means to what he wants in the end, to be president?
I have a lot of “friends” and acquaintances in DC. It’s 100% pure self-interest. They don’t want the system to be disturbed in any way that could impact their income stream. Wouldn’t you fight to protect your personal income stream? I believe that it’s short-sighted and it’s obviously wrong for the country. Humans are going to human.
Wouldn’t you fight to protect your personal income stream?
No, I would not and have not stepped on others, stabbed them in the back, lied to them, caused them incalculable harm, or given over my soul to the devil for my “income stream.” My only ‘fight’ is that involving my own hard work and application of God given gifts and the ‘fight’ to prevent the government from stealing all of it (though unfortunately they do steal a ton of it by taxes on everything short of the breaths I take).
While many in politics do that which they do for “mere” greed and/or power, many more are downright evil. The only manner in which it is “humans going to human” is by virtue of the sad reality that humanity – all humanity, including myself – to varying degrees succumb to the wiles of the devil.
The same question you asked is also applied by those trying to absolve the medical professionals and those who were in power, be it government power or corporate power, of the horrible, evil things done to humanity in the name of a flu-like virus.
Your point confirms America would be far better off if Washington DC was completely wiped off the map. Thieves, traitors and scoundrels there are only in it for themselves. There is no notion of “service to others” left in that despicable sewer of mankind’s worst tendencies. The United States of America is NOT Washington DC and that city bears no resemblance to the concept of America as designed by our founders.
Mark 8:36 (New King James Version) “For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul?”
DC is Sodom-on-Potomac.
“We pledge our lives, our fortunes and our Sacred Honor…”
This current crop seems to fall short, don’t they?
Guess there really is a difference between a statesman and a politician.
But they aren’t afraid to pledge your fortune. In fact, they have.
Ramaswamy had this part right. Just lay-off every US federal govt employee worldwide with an odd-numbered SSN. Do it by executive order on day one. No discrimination, no successful lawsuits. Poof. Then go after the remaining hacks and don’t replace them.
As much as I do not like Swampy, I do like this idea!!!!
“They don’t want the system to be disturbed in any way that could impact their income stream.”
THAT is precisely the way ” ‘anti-abortion’, conservative Christian women” explained to me why they were voting for Bill Clinton in 1992, when Snakehead was running around yelling, “It’s the economy, stupid!”
I just gave them a cross-eyed look–said, “Really??……” and dropped it. They knew EXACTLY what they were trading away for their own comfort.
I gave up my ‘revenue stream’ when I emphatically declared “NO” to experimental gene therapy modification, made ‘redundant’ as the Brits say, started my own business, making a profit, and living off of 1/6th or 1/7th of the income that I once earned.
“Doing fairly well”
on easily hyped cosmetic issues rather than on vital foundational issues?
Rearranging deck chairs while Florida’s Titanic is sinking but still could be saved?
Same thing can be said of my Texas. Texas media covers over MUCH of what goes on.
Only slightly off topic. The article below is now nearly two years old and this piece from John Solomon is the only vestige of the original story I could find, several other links from other sources having been taken down (imagine that).
I remember thinking back then that DeSantis could become a conservative hero and secure a major role in the next Trump Administration if he broke this open and started locking up some of the players in the Florida democrat vote manufacturing operation which is just part of the nationwide syndicate that exists all across our country.
….. but poof!
It just disappeared (like a similar operation in Michigan is being buried by the FBI).
I guess I was a bit naïve, huh?
*****************************************
Democrat blows whistle on alleged ballot harvesting scheme, Florida opens criminal probe
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ new election crimes unit has recommended state police open a full criminal investigation into a Democrat whistleblower’s detailed complaint of a long-running, widespread ballot harvesting operation in the African-American communities in politically important central Florida.
Former Orange County Commissioner candidate Cynthia Harris filed a sworn affidavit in late August with the Secretary of State’s office alleging that illegal operations to collect third-party ballots have been going on for years in the Orlando area where voting activists are paid $10 for each ballot they collect.
https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/elections/florida-opens-criminal-probe-democrat-whistleblowers-evidence-ballot
I followed that issue closely. In the end, the whole thing ended up just being a show, something to grab a few headlines that ultimately led to nowheresville.
Now, to be fair, whether DeSantis put the wrong people in charge of running that operation, whether they wanted to ultimately prove that Florida’s elections were fair and weren’t compromised, to prove to MAGA that it was all just a false conspiracy theory….I really don’t know.
What I did find is a pattern of DeSantis taking on a lot of “headline” issues that ultimately led to nowheresville. It was then that I came to believe that DeSantis’s true intention was just to throw out random red meat to the gullible masses. He wanted to sound like he was really doing something when he wasn’t doing anything at all.
DeSantis arrested and charged several felons who illegally voted.
Most of these folks were Black, claimed they didn’t know any better, democrats screamed “Racism”, DeSantis folded like a cheap camera and that was the end of that.
Do democrats think that accepting personal acknowledgement of ignorance and stupidity is racist.
Interesting.
I guess they’re like jokebiden–don’t know what they’re even saying.
I guess this is why he’s looking for a TV gig 🤷♂️
Meatball Ron has a face for radio.
His anti-charisma will be great on Fox News.
I hope his epic failure of a campaign completely broke him forever.
Yes. FOX News is where only moderately talented but well-connected Repubs go for six figure job when they fail in an administrative/govt job.
I can 100% confirm that there are 2 groups in DC that make up 99.9% of the “political” constituents of that city. The 95% that are (D) and the 5% that are “Never Trump”. The 5% fear and loathe his “America first agenda” and what his policies could/would/will mean for upsetting their gravy train. The bureaucrats, lobbyists, and fundraisers can’t stand Trump and what might happen if he wins.
Huh. I thought a kamala was a stuffed 🫒.
I especially love the fact that TPTB, were just cute enough to represent DeSantis as Trump lite.
That’s the ticket, we’ll just fake them out.
These people are the Eddie Haskell’s you can’t see, in Sundances rabble rouser kids depiction on homepage.
Losers.
I just was thinking: this is exactly why we need to get rid of professional politicians.
There is no reason why someone who is active locally can’t go to Washington for a few terms and work with their replacement to “show them the ropes” when they get elected.
The States are suppose to yield all the power. The Federal level is suppose to be slow and clunky with limited power.
Someone who claims to be “experienced” in politics should be disqualified by the voters.
Somehow we need to get local and regional politics to thrive and harness their power. I don’t care if CA wants to ban gasoline powered engines, I can choose not to live there – as I already left the state I was born and raised in (side note: a lot of people I know in CA are very conservative, I think a strong majority don’t necessarily agree with the laws the commies are pushing through but that’s what a voter fraud network can achieve).
We need to take back local and state oversight, that’s the path forward. There is no instance fix. As we make our cities and counties more fair and transparent (elections and governance) it will spread as more and more areas take back oversight from the political insiders – both left and right.
As Sundance described in his posting about his visit to Russia. Our American DNA is routed in Freedom. It’s at the core of the fabric of our nation. We must reject the “fatherland” mentality trying to be imposed on us.
City by city, county by county.
I don’t need people in CA to be free and happy for me to live my best life. I want them to be, but that’s up to them – I chose to leave.
Yeah, sure, by what apparatus? Both parties are congenitally corrupt. And DS will bribe or threaten you. Those who refuse to play along have a dirt bed.
You’re thinking to nationally. One town/county at a time.
I don’t care if CA wants to ban gasoline powered engines, I can choose not to live there
One problem with that. As California Goes, So Goes the Nation.
I don’t know why that is true but it is. Try buying a decent gasoline can…
The “why” is because the CA economy is bigger than many countries. I am remembering 1/5 of the total US economy (please correct me if I mis remembered that #).
Corporations are not going to manufacture something that cannot be sold in CA. That’s business.
Sure but whatabout the social insanity? SBS?
Here’s a start:

While that may have been true in the past, I do not believe it is true at present.
The California Dreaming “American Dream” ship sailed with The Grapes of Wrath.
As I did NY many years ago and thank God everyday I’m not there.
More secrecy: Can’t find website for group “Florida Center for Government Accountability” that is suing DeSantis’ administration in 2022 to obtain public records about the migrant flights that sent 44 people from Texas to Martha’s Vineyard on Sept 14 that year.

As I’ve written before, imagine how much better off this country would be if the Republican party spent this amount of effort being honest, following its planks, and pushing forward Trump’s brand of economic liberty?
The people who took the covid-19 shots aren’t vaccinated but a lot of them are dead or dying.
You may be right according to paper recently published in Lancet journal:
https://x.com/MakisMD/status/1804209104879042772
Sadly true. A republished (pulled down a year ago, think how many lives could have been saved)Lancet preprint review of several hundred autopsies found 73% died due to the jab.
Now ask this question: How many people who died suddenly were autopsied? Baffled seems to be the key word for sudden deaths.
I call them “vaxxed.”
Yes a lot in my TX
More than half of my New Yawk relatives have moved from the Blue Belly of the Beast to sunny Florida. If you listen to them, one would think that RDS was the new Messiah. I guess it’s a matter of perspective.
New York politicians do set a pretty low bar.
!
I’ll simply say what Mittens, McConnell, and the other establishment Republicans said to PDJT during the very fake Mueller investigation – ‘If there is nothing inappropriate to hide, then why would DeSantis be concerned about an investigation? Just go along with it.”
Looks like team DeSantis has a LOT to hide. Anyone could of guessed this with Sea Island and Bushes involved.
Its funny to me that the uniparty keeps putting forward candidates as “likeable” as poison ivy.
They really are a bitter, maladjusted group. Seem to enjoy forcing miserable people on us just to prove they have the power to do so.
Hairy Camel.
Retired Magistrate here: Well, what do you know; another judge that actually belongs on the bench.

We can only hope.
Shocking, right?
Who is the third man in the photo with Bush and Clinton?
Pretty sure it is George Wallace, former governor of Alabama and candidate for President.
A bit scary—Yet Wallace is another one of Biden’s many White Supremacist mentors.
While I certainly didn’t agree with Mr. Wallace on many things, he did serve as an example of what can happen to politicians who step away from the Uniparty fold.
He was left paralyzed from an assassination attempt during his campaign in 1972. He became a Republican, as did most of the South, and in the late 1970’s he had a “come to Jesus” moment where he finally apologized for his past segregationist beliefs. He”evolved”.
He became a Republican?
Please cite your sources.💁🤷♀️
Until his dying breath he was
nothing but a Rotten Democrat.
You must know that many here
Were alive during that time?
His final years as the Democrat
Governor of Alabama…
1983-1987….
After that….he retired from
politics.
He lived and Died a …..Rotten Democrat.
At one time, I fell hook, line and sinker for the Muscle Shoals based, Drive-by-Truckers, until they released a deep state album the same day of one of President Trump impeachments.
Still, some of the music from 20 years ago is interesting.
The Three Great Alabama Icons opines about George Wallace, something this Yankee had never heard of.

This is Hilarious.

Republican..blah ..blah -worst since to George Wallace.
You can tell that it was edited to take out the
worst he said about Trump.

It was an Epic takedown by Cole….and notice
that the others didn’t step up to correct
Ellison.
Keith Ellison falsely says racist Democrat George Wallace was a Republican, gets OWNED by Tom Cole – YouTube

Thank you, Sundance for your gift of being brutally honest, and then so eloquently reminding us of our inability to remember or see all the details. Continued blessings. Thank you again.
YEs sometimes the truth is hard to swallow.
For over a year you all warned me that Noem was not the governor being portrayed in the media. Yes it took a few months of living in South Dakota before my blinders came off….
Am I sorry that I move here? No. For here in the Black Hills, I do believe that I will be a lot safer then on the west coast and many other so called Red states. I say ‘so-called” cause who really knows any more.
Yes. Even my Texas has big issues. You at least in SD does not have millions moving here every year.
The deep state sat the agenda for all those socially conservative dreamy laws to be passed in Florida to sell DeSantis as the next Reagan and defender of all family values. The legislature wrote them up and DeSantis signed them. Boy did he look good, and he was a family man too. Unlike orange man who has had 3 marriages. (sarcasm here)
Some people had no idea what RDS was really about and some still fail to see it. Funny thing is the Deep State is poor at sales because they failed to remember that DeSantis was a lousy campaigner and needed Trump to win the first time. Ron was simply the most unappealing low charisma guy to be found. He was in no way a people person, he seemed slimy and secretive and it showed.
RDS was up against a man who is the exact opposite. Trump is the mighty engine and RDS wasn’t even the caboose.
Ron was simply the most unappealing low charisma guy to be found. He was in no way a people person, he seemed slimy and secretive and it showed.
Very similar to Brandon in that aspect. The DS figured that if they could get the pedo elected, they could surely foist Ron on the people. If not for PDJT, they may well have succeeded.
If the deep state is so deep that everyone in government is a member, where does that leave us? We should have elected meth head Gillum? The state of Florida has never been stronger financially and in growth. So many refugees from leftist states are flooding FL that they need to erect a border wall. I don’t think this kind of success comes from a deep state operative.
Not for nothing but the “we could have had Gillum” argument just don’t hunt anymore…try somewhere else…
Give the people some of what they want, but never yield what the Machine holds as truly important.
It’s a sort of camouflage and insurance at the same time.
“Where does that leave us?”
In the disaster that we are in, facing the possibility of a horrific future of the stuff nightmares are made from. (btw, everyone – no – but the vast majority).
“We should have elected meth head Gillum?”
Absolutely not – sometimes one has to choose the lesser of two evils (though it’s better to find and promote one who is not evil, as hard as that may be). It also has absolutely NOTHING to do with who and what RS is.
RS has had almost nothing to do with “so many refugees” that are flooding Florida – at least not those that are American citizens. That was done by those in power where they came from and the illusion of RS and Florida. On the other hand, he HAS had a lot to do with the mass of illegal invaders that have flooded into Florida.
As far as the financial part – the uniparty has always been a favorite of corporations and there has been a huge injection of wealth that came with all those refugees that are citizens and the corporations that fled from NY and moved to FL.
If you don’t think success can come with a deep state operative involved, you are fooling only yourself. The DS plays the long game and if they need to not impede – or even go along with – things for a short period of time (short being less than a decade) in order to position one of their pieces, they will undoubtedly do so and have done so repeatedly. Obama was groomed over decades – as were the rubes known as the Clintons.
What are these financial metrics that imply strongest ever?
His “success” is Kabuki Theater, to make him appealing and electable nationally. He betrayed Trump after he got his endorsement. He will betray us to the highest bidder.
I’m disgusted with all of the corruption about Ron DeSantis.
The article that is referenced is from the Tampa Bay Times which is a left wing rag that trashes Trump.
I want to know all of the names that were and still are involved with taking down Trump. Who was DeSantis working with? I have no doubt RD is working with the Biden regime just like Nikki Haley is.
Maximum sunlight on all of the corrupt players involved.
I must admit, I fell for DeSantis at first. His actions during COVID had me glad to be spending the lion’s share of my time in Florida, and I was quite pleased that he opened the state early, and pushed very hard to allow life to get back to normal.
As he started to lie about his 2024 presidential intentions, I got pretty angry. Now I’m just sad.
We need to start looking now to find a MAGA replacement for him.
Mr. DeSantis could have signed a recount of Florida’s 2020 election to prove elections are secure. (No phantom voters) 🙄
He allowed the FL
Insurance companies to increase rates so high as to make certain areas too expensive to live in.
Forcing older residents out of their retirement homes.
He did not. He is part of the problem.
Wolverine at the ready.
Why is it so hard to understand that the political class are our enemies.. The constitution was written by Godly men that felt self governing was the only way forward “as long as you can keep it”.. These men designed it to protect us from they political class trying to undermine self governance.. Now we have let them in the hen house.. Let’s talk more about malicious deviants to everyone around us..
It’s not.
“Hard to understand” is, specifically, NOT the issue.
Who is the guy shaking hands with Bush ?
Read upthread.
Two questions:
Do you think it was Team Trump or Team Bush that arranged for Gillum’s exposure? That was not happenstance.
When DeSantis went all bobblehead, and did such a horrible job as a candidate that his wife / DS handler had to step in to do the major campaigning for him, was that a directed self-shiv, and was that because Team Trump ( covert branch), had his number while he was still just a congressman? That’s what it looked like to me, especially when President Trump tweet warned him about the high school girls.
It was Team Meth and Team Grey Goose..
As a Floridian, I thank God everyday DeSantis is governor. If it weren’t for him, my wife and I might be dead from forced CV jabs. HE made the state free again.
You mean like when he signed the below bill that his people helped to craft that allows exactly that which you were rightly concerned with?
Great reminder of how confirmation bias works – all people daily only see and hear things that confirm their personal beliefs even if the evidence of the opposite is right in front of them, and it does take a lot of work to break that habit.
Good job keeping the receipts!
My cup (HDs) runneth over 😉

Gosh old! Ever heard of “just say no”? I am in a deep blue state. I would NOT comply. They would have had to hold me down and forcefully inject me like they did that soldier.
I guess I should have added that we were not required to give up our employment because of the lack of jabs. We have friends even in TX (not supposed to be blue) that were released from employment due to this with no religious exemption.
I live in Florida.
My former company was requiring the shot for all managers who traveled.
Those who didn’t get it, got gone. No exceptions.
Publix browbeat the fool out of their employees to get the kill shot.
Publix has also joined in the surveillance biometric theft plan, as well as refused to state they will not store or share the data they steal.
Fantasyland. He’s not my governor and I’ve had no jabs, nor has my family.
DeSantis is a good guy. He has done more to protect citizens from leftists, mandatory masks and vaccines than anyone. He has done a great job regardless of the presidential campaign.
Time to unite instead of divide.
Tempting UniParty slogan:
Its time to unite. Its time to take a bi partisan, hands across the aisle approach.
Those who realize what’s at stake plus how little time is left will UNITE and accept President Trumps leadership.
Like all fictional masterpieces, Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings offers transcendent TRUTHS.
We are in a very real version of the war described in the Lord of the Rings.
Uniting with those still serving Saurons Mordor == fatally self indulgent naivete
On the other hand, accepting the DECISIONS made by our Gandalf leader, PDJT, by temporarily setting aside legit differences between dwarves, elves, humans and quirks in order to form an Anti MORDOR Alliance == realpolitik savvy and spiritually mature.
United we stand. Divided we fall. We hang together for now or we lose and hang seperately.
United is determined by whose leadership we accept. Gandalf Trumps, Saurons, including MAGA Saurons or our own?
135 days left.
None are so blind………or you are part of the same “alphabet”.
Ok pal
We can unite on the right things and EXPOSE deception, throw light on it so that citizens truly know who it is they are supporting.
Than anyone? More fantasy.
Should I unite with the allies and puppets of those who hate me and want to destroy me?
Sundance and Brenden Dilley = my guys.
President Trump and those 100% loyal to him and his MAGA Mission, including “Sundance and Brenden Dilley== my guys” too.
THIS type of analysis is why I came to CTH …and keep coming back.
As a FL native, I was an ardent RDS supporter until Sundance pointed out the evidence that Trump was aware of a knife-in-the-back effort by the McConnell faction to replace him with RDS. It took me a while to credit that as a fact. Changed the whole ’24 equation where I had been a strong Trump/RDS ’24 ticket advocate.
The core, ever present reality of politics is that power + money corrupts. Always. Without exception.
But Trump is a multi-billionaire and far less subject to the $ side of that equation than RDS …or 99.99% of the uniparty.
Kudos.
Up thread, you claimed to have sold your home in Florida and move to Ohio.

While Bush was CIA Director, one wonders how much Bush “DNA” seeped into the CIA and conversely, how much CIA “DNA” seeped into the Bushes?
The Bushes, going way back to Prescott, did not need CIA DNA to seep into them. They fit right in.
So was it a good thing or bad thing that President Trump endorsed DeSantis in 2018 and was a major factor in DeSantis becoming Governor? Was President Trump duped or just naive, or should he have endorsed Ag Comm Adam Putnam instead of DeSantis in the Florida primaries? Maybe. But in either case, DeSantis was a better choice than Democrat Andrew Gillum!
Trump reads “The Snake.”
Sundance’s point, clearly, is that you can give the snake aid and comfort all you want, but you should never forget who you’re dealing with.
Chess not checkers.
Chess mastery == focusing on the end goal and positioning on the game board rather than having a one-piece-at-a-time focus.
Long game versus immediate.
Fortunately President Trump is literally a genius famous for taking the long game approach.
Unfortunately he’s still being undermined by pride full I-Know-Betters.
Its a fascinating phenomenon to observe; a phenomenon that serves as a much needed reminder to myself as well as a constant reminder to react by PRAYING for rather than PREYING on others.
Thankfully, President Trump == an amazing Light Hearted role model
Ron De Santimouniiouss is responsible for Lee Zeldin not being elected to the Governor of NY. I have said this before but is now the time to day it again. Santimounious Ron was supposed to attend a Lee Zelden rally in NY. He visited a billionaire in upstate who told him do not go. About that time his travel records were hidden, and Kathy HoHUM was elected Gov. of NY.
Thus, we got BRAGG as AG and the trial for MAGA President Trump in NY.
Texas patriot here and there was a time very long ago when I took up of George “they will hear you now” Bush. Sorry for that.
Once your eyes are open you see it all.
I have my doubts about your conclusion that DeSantis had any impact on Zeldin’s loss in deep blue New York State. Had Zeldin won however, I do agree Bragg would not have survived as DA.
If the power players believed Rons attending the Zeldin fundraiser would have “no impact” they wouldn’t have insisted that Ron cancel at the last minute.
Obviously the power players conclusions =/= this armchairs “conclusion”.
Exactly, plus why hide the travel records?
This Texan agrees – it IS good to have eyes opened.
Letitia James was elected the AG of New York State, Alvin “Twinkies” Bragg is the Manhattan/New York County District Attorney.
Why do these people (Lindsey Graham) NOT understand that the Dobbs decision handed abortion back to STATE JURISDICTION? The Congress can’t pass a statute either banning abortion, or “codifying” Roe v. Wade. Both sides would need to obtain a Constitutional amendment to either ban abortion nationwide or “codify” Roe v. Wade.
They do understand, completely. Said understanding doesn’t prevent them from twisting the truth to such a point as it is unrecognizable or flat out lying in order to achieve their ends.
Why do some opines continue to believe that “these people” don’t “understand” things that even armchairs understand?
Perhaps these opiners are the ones who don’t “understand” the Real World?
Thank God President Trump does understand.
Lindsey is sabotaging the election, allowing the dems to campaign/pander to their base on the issue. He understands, playing for the other team.
I admit I was a fan of Ron DeSantis when he was in Congress. I never even thought about how unusual his behavior was in deciding to run for Governor of Florida after he had a high standing in the Legislative branch of the Federal Government. My antenna finally went up when he decided to accept contributions from all over the Country in a run for Governor. By then I was reading TLR on a daily basis and had learned not to trust anything coming from the DC Swamp. Thank you for opening my eyes to the machinations of the Deep State, Sundance. I now even wonder if PDJT has learned anything about the long tentacles of the Deep State since his first term. I hope he has, because Trump is our only hope.
DJT knew more about the Deep State, both national and international, while in his teens than most human beings, including life long truth seekers, ever learn.
Better still, DJT is a genius tier problem solver rather than just a problem identifier.
Perhaps good hearted armchairs imagine that PDJT only knew/knows what they do rather than realizing that he’s been patient enuf to let them figure things on their own, with his guidance, to avoid triggering a fatal “shoot the bearer of bad news” reaction?
Usually you can’t tell people. Instead you have to let them “enroll in the school of hard knocks” so they hopefully figure things out for themselves.
Only then can people find the will to change, especially when those changes will be very uncomfy.
AA calls this Hitting Rock Bottom ie making the decision to choose Life or Death
Now that you have made 5 comments about my take on PDJT, what about him choosing Mike Pence as a VP candidate, and how did he ever lose control of the COVID-19 plandemic to a Hillary Clinton acolyte like Anthony Fauci? I am not arguing with you, I am just telling you why I still am not sure he knows everything about the Deep State. And why I am hoping he does.
On the bright side,Florida seems to have some fine judges.
Judge Cannon, overseeing Trump’s document case is bringing in the sunlight and burning Jack Smith with scrutiny, and now Judge Marsh, doing his utmost to ensure Florida’s sunshine laws are not subverted.
All it takes for evil to succeed is for good men to look away.
Look at what a difference it has made to have one brave, tough man, Donald Trump stand up and fight.
Don’t look away!
Eileen Cannon is a Federal district judge not a judge at the state level.
