Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is putting himself in a direct confrontation with the federal government in order to protect workers in his state.

Earlier today Florida Governor Ron DeSantis repeated his threat to fine any entity, business, county, city or federal offices with a $5,000 fine -per incident- if they attempt to discriminate against unvaccinated employees, or threaten the employment status of non-vaccinated workers.

Appearing together with Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody, DeSantis stated:  “If a government agency in the state of Florida forces a vaccine as a condition to employment, that violates Florida law and you will pay”…

A Florida appeals court has ruled that Governor Ron DeSantis’ pro-choice school mask policy will be reinstated, and put a stay against a previous activist judge who attempted to block the executive order.  This is a freedom win for parents in Florida who will now have the option of having their kids wear masks or not depending on their individual choice.

FLORIDA – Gov. Ron DeSantis and his administration won approval on Friday to put a hold on a Leon County judge’s ruling that said the state could not enforce a ban on strict mask mandates in schools.

The 1st District Court of Appeal agreed to a state request to reinstate a stay on Judge John Cooper’s ruling amid objections from a group of parents who said the move could cause “irreparable harm” to their children amid a rise of COVID-19 cases. The decision means the state can continue to punish school officials who impose mask mandates without a parent opt-out. (read more)

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is in the crosshairs of every leftist organization in the country.

The laser-like focus of the Florida legislature and executive branch toward the protection of individual liberty is really making the collectivist activist groups apoplectic.

Meanwhile, the value of real estate in the Sunshine State is skyrocketing; and jumpin’ ju-ju bones, the economy is on fire with freedom.

Now comes this…  TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (WJHG/WECP) – Florida will start issuing $5,000 fines to businesses, schools, and government agencies that require people to show proof of a COVID-19 vaccination.

Governor Ron DeSantis signed a bill earlier this year that banned vaccine passports.  The fines will start on Sept. 16 if people are asked to show proof of a vaccine. Violators will have the chance to appeal but, once the fine is finalized, they will have 30 days to pay. (read more)

Why does government seem to control so much of our lives now? What significant changes happened in the past 15 years that created a social shift and allowed government to influence almost every facet of our activity? Why has the previously ordinary become so complex? Why is it more difficult to be comfortably invisible and just live out the creed of pursuing ‘life, liberty and happiness’? What is behind all this?

We were not sleeping, we were wide awake. Perhaps distracted, yes; but we were wide awake when something shifted. A Fourth Branch of Government was quietly created, and technology allowed the tentacles of the system to touch us. That’s the root of it, and if we take the time to understand how the Fourth Branch originated, questions about this perpetual angst start to make sense.

The number one question on this website, and amid everyone I talk to is: “What can be done? How do we fix this mess?”  There is actually something that can be done at a federal level, but it won’t be easy, and it will take a very strong and deliberate action against one specific chamber of congress to change the dynamic permanently.

The Senate is at the root of the issue.

Without the U.S. Senate being complicit and thoroughly corrupted, none of the events that face us daily would be happening.

The Senate didn’t amass this power overnight, it took decades.  If you look at the root problem of the daily issues we face from wasteful spending, to out of control federal agencies, to just about every institution that has become corrupted -including the DOJ and FBI- what you will note is the continued re-emergence of the Senate as a complicit and enabling body.

There is a way, a constitutional outline, for the Senate to be completely reset; and a process where We The People take back control.  I call that solution the “one ring” approach, because it crushes the corrupt political system in the same way that Frodo throwing the ring into the fire of Mount Doom destroyed the evil emanating from the Eye of Sauron. [Lord of The Rings metaphor]

However, before walking through that process, it is critical to remind ourselves of the specific issues that have been created.  As you read or re-read this lengthy outline, keep the issues of the Senate in the back of your mind, and notice them when they appear.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is working to open monoclonal antibody treatment centers across the state, which would expand access to a revolutionary COVID-19 treatment. The Republican sat down at one of the latest facilities in Panama City, Florida for an exclusive interview with One America’s Stefan Kleinhenz. [Direct Rumble Link]

In addition to the monoclonal treatment, the Florida governor discusses the issues of masks in schools.  WATCH:

The Associated Press attempted a hit piece on Florida Governor Ron DeSantis over his promotion for monoclonal antibody treatment for early stage COVID recovery.  The treatment from Regeneron was purchased by the federal government in January of 2021.  However, the AP attempted to claim a small investor in Regeneron was also a supporter of Ron DeSantis…. the implication was a quid-pro-quo.

The attempt was so weak, so lacking of substance and silly, that few additional media attempted to join the AP in their narrative.  Even the far-left politifact had to call out the Fake News. After the AP refused to clear the record and drop the nonsense, Governor Ron DeSantis and his spokesperson, Christina Pushaw, unleashed on the AP in a similar way they crushed a similar 60-Minutes effort earlier in the year.

Ms. Pushaw simply re-tweeted the AP story and said “drag them” to her followers and DeSantis supporters.  The Associated Press is not used to having the MAGA army take action and start ridiculing them.  New rules...

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis directly responded to the attacks from Joe Biden and the White House over DeSantis’ decision to block forced vaccinations, forced mask mandates, block CDC demanded shut-downs and keep schools open and mask-free for in-person teaching.

Earlier today, Governor DeSantis took direct aim at the manipulative control effort from the federal bureaucracy, and said Florida will not be a biomedical surveillance state on his watch.  The remarks were deliberate, resolute and unwavering in defense of the constitutional freedoms and protection from obtrusive government.  The visibly determined governor told Joe Biden the federal demands would not be happening “on my watch.”

“If you are coming after the rights of parents in Florida, I’m standing in your way – and not letting you get away with it.  If you are trying to deny kids a proper in-person education, I’m standing in your way” … “If you are trying to restrict people and impose mandates; if you are trying to lock people down; I am standing in your way and standing for the rights of the people in Florida” … “Why don’t you do your job, why don’t you secure the border, and until you do that – I don’t want to hear a blip about COVID from you.”

NOTE: Ron DeSantis did not kill himself….

The Biden administration is specifically targeting Florida and Texas for allowing the principles of constitutional freedom to guide their COVID mitigation efforts.  Over the past two days the White House in general, and Joe Biden specifically, has been targeting Governor Ron DeSantis and Governor Greg Abbott.

During a press conference today, in South Florida on environmental issues, Governor DeSantis delivered remarks about his response to a recent surge in COVID positive testing, while recommitting to keeping Florida a free and open state.  As DeSantis notes, the federal mitigation efforts have failed on multiple fronts to stem COVID-19 while simultaneously punishing people; he will not participate in any intervention that provides no benefit and has no basis in science.  Video below prompted to the COVID discussion:

The attacks against Florida and Texas will not diminish as long as the Biden administration need to weaponize COVID fear for their political purposes.  Texas and Florida remaining free, fearless and functioning is against the interests of the White House.

As Barack Obama’s campaign manager and lead political advisor David Plouffe admitted recently, Democrats need massive mail-in ballots and fraud again if they are going to avoid getting wiped out in the 2022 election.   COVID fear is the vehicle to get those priorities in place.  It really is that simple.

I’m pretty sure everyone here could predict the White House would need to target any state or region that is not restricting freedom and applying ridiculous COVID rules and regulations.  States that do not force vaccinations, force masks, and generate mandates against their citizens are essentially enemies of the politically reliant dictators.

As a consequence, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis allowing his state to remain open and operating as normal, without arbitrary rules, restrictions and mandates, stands in open defiance of the demanded federal overreaction.  The White House cannot have Florida functioning without panic and fear, and still sell their doom and gloom forecast; so DeSantis becomes the enemy.

This is where the David Plouffe messaging comes into the White House press briefing room as Press Secretary Jen Psaki takes direct aim at DeSantis earlier today.  (video prompted) WATCH:

Everything about that soundbite is bait.  This is typical political planning and strategy being deployed with the help of corporate media.  The White House wants to draw DeSantis into a direct conflict so they can use false claims in media to create a totally fabricated narrative.  DeSantis would be well advised not to take the bait.
