Meet Ron DeSantis

When I was elected Governor in 2018, Florida was seen as a bellwether for American politics known for its historically close races. Had Florida turned blue in 2018, we would be facing a very different reality. Thankfully, we won and the free state of Florida is thriving.

We led the way with commonsense freedom-focused policies, providing a blueprint for the rest of the country to follow.

As Governor, I’ve prioritized:

FREEDOM – I’ve kept Florida open, protected jobs and businesses, and safeguarded against mandates by banning vaccine passports.

ECONOMY – Due to Florida being open, we have outpaced the nation in jobs, economic growth, new business formations, and tourism. We now have a record budget surplus.

EDUCATION – I guaranteed the ability of parents to send their kids to school in-person, enacted substantive protections for parents’ rights in education, and secured the largest increase in teacher compensation in state history.

PUBLIC SAFETY – I signed legislation prohibiting local governments from defunding law enforcement, secured $1k bonuses for all police, fire, and EMT personnel, and enacted the largest law enforcement recruitment and retention package in the nation.

ELECTION INTEGRITY – I protected Florida elections by strengthening voter ID laws, banning ballot harvesting, and prohibiting “Zuckerbucks.”

CONSERVATION – I secured a record $3.3 billion to safeguard Florida’s natural resources, improve water quality, and restore Florida’s Everglades.

These are just a few of the policies I’ve put into place and prioritized as Governor. By focusing on these issues, Florida has attracted people from all over the country who value one thing above all: freedom.

PLEDGE YOUR SUPPORT FOR OUR FREEDOM FIRST MISSION >>>

I am proud of the work we have done during my first term, and I hope that I can count on your support in November to ensure we can keep building on these accomplishments and Keep Florida Free for generations to come.

Brandon has failed to enact commonsense border security policies that would keep Americans safe from the unimpeded flow of illegal immigration and life-threatening drugs pouring across our southern border.

Governor Ron DeSantis is taking steps to ensure Floridians are protected from this crisis handed down by Washington.

Where Brandon fails, Governor DeSantis leads.

[STAND WITH GOVERNOR DESANTIS]

Last month, the Governor announced three significant actions Florida is taking to address the border crisis.

  1. Establishing a strike force of state and local law enforcement to interdict drug smuggling and human trafficking and to seize illegal weapons being transported through the state.
  2. Petitioning the Florida Supreme Court for a statewide grand jury to examine international human smuggling networks which bring illegal aliens to the southern border, how it impacts Florida, and how the organizations have violated Florida law.
  3. Prohibiting government agencies from contracting with any common carrier facilitating the resettlement of illegal aliens into Florida.

Over the past three years, we have been called to make choices and answer questions we did not expect.

Questions about how, in a world that seemed frightening and different, we were going to raise our kids, continue to put food on the table, and care for our communities?

And questions that feel further out now like, how does our government interact with its citizenry in a time of crisis?

How is our government — one of the people, by the people, for the people — meant to protect life, but not stifle liberty?

In crisis, do we foster freedom? Or do we force our citizens down?

Well, over the past three years I believe we have had the truth revealed about those two vastly different approaches. Not in an academic textbook or in a theoretical debate, but in the harsh reality of governing during COVID. You could not find two more starkly different examples than the free state of Florida and the woke tyranny of Gavin Newsom’s California.

It isn't hard to understand why the Governor of California wants to talk about Florida. It's part of the one topic he tries to focus on: Anything but California.

Let's take a look at the record of the “liberal elite” in California:

  1. They locked their kids out of public schools at the behest of the teachers’ unions.
  2. They forced small businesses to close with many never to re-open again.
  3. They hobbled law enforcement and allowed drugs and crime to destroy their cities.
Everything on that list is a tragedy, and it’s only made worse by the disregard and disrespect shown by leaders like Gavin Newsom. The idea of locking down your citizens and then darting off to the fanciest restaurant in the state to rub their noses in it.

It's wrong, it’s disgusting, and it's no surprise that every day driving around Florida I see more and more California license plates as a result.

In Florida, we didn't bludgeon our people with government mandates; we lifted people up — protecting their jobs, their businesses, and their kids’ education.

Help us keep Florida free in November >>>

We didn't lock business owners out of their livelihoods and we didn't lock people out of their jobs.

In Florida we didn't turn a blind eye to crime and drugs, we put criminals behind bars, and we kept our streets safe.

Gavin Newsom doesn't want to talk about California, and I don't blame him. But the reality is, there are plenty of woke liberal billionaires on Gavin Newsom’s speed dial who do not want to see individual freedom succeed. They don't want to see it succeed in Florida or anywhere else.

Because if it succeeds, it shows everyone that the top down nanny-state tyranny of California is avoidable — Free people making their own decisions are better off than a locked down citizenry dictated to by elitists.

That's why I need your help. Gavin Newsom, funded by Hollywood liberals, Big Tech billionaires, and who knows who else is running ads in Florida. I need your help to fight back. On our side are free people who care to stay that way. On their side is everyone who thinks they know better.

The second Joe Biden stepped into the Oval Office, he declared war on American energy. America went from being energy independent to reducing U.S. production capacity and increasing our reliance on foreign oil.

Make no mistake: the sky-high fuel prices hurting Floridians are a direct result of Biden’s anti-energy policies. He even went so far as to condemn mom-and-pop gas stations for “price gouging.”

In an insulting slap in the face to the American energy sector, Biden just took a trip to Saudi Arabia to solicit their help to get out of the very crisis he created.

Using fist bumps to get Saudi oil to supplement the lack of supply created by his own misplaced policy is about as tone deaf as you can get and it is painfully insulting to the hard-working energy workers who Biden put out of business.

We have every opportunity to go back to being energy independent here in the U.S., and yet Biden is reaching out to Saudi Arabia for help. The American people deserve better.
Add your name if you stand for American energy independence. >>>>

Democrats just can’t seem to let go of their COVID theatrics.

Two years later and they are still just as mask-happy as they were at the beginning of this entire political charade.

COVID opened the door for the Left to test the limits of just how much they can get away with. First it was mandatory lockdowns. Then it was mandatory masks. Next it was mandatory vaccines. Then it was double masks. Followed by double vaccines.

REJECT COVID THEATER >>>

Democrats love the thought of controlling an entire nation of people under the guise of public safety, and they aren’t letting go of it any time soon. Biden just declared at a press conference that “COVID isn’t gone” as he pushed for more masking across the nation. Fauci is now saying he wishes we did more in terms of lockdowns and mandates surrounding COVID.

The very same “leaders” on the Left who double mask and quadruple vax are still getting infected with COVID-19, yet they are still relentlessly pushing these mandates on the American people. Why?

Power. Virtue signaling. Keeping the Democrat Machine’s thumb pressed tightly on the freedom and liberty of the American people. When Fauci recognized that Americans were no longer interested in living in this dystopian hellscape handcrafted by the Democrat party, he started warning of new impending lockdowns. New recommendations on masking. Telling Americans they "can’t just say we’re done” with COVID.

Well, guess what? In Florida, that’s exactly what Governor DeSantis did. He called out the Left for their insane obsession with locking people down and masking the country into oblivion and closed the curtain on their COVID theater.

CURTAIN CALL ON COVID THEATER >>>

As Americans, we live in the land of the free, not the land of the CDC. In Florida, we’ve made it known that we’re not masking our kids. We’re not closing businesses. We’re not shutting down schools. We’re moving forward, and nothing scares the Left more.

Democrats are like a dog with a bone, clinching tight to their mandates and they’re not letting go without a fight. We’re here to tell you Governor DeSantis is bringing that fight straight to them. He isn’t letting their deranged need for power suppress the freedom of Floridians, and that’s why they’re so desperate to get him out.

FIGHT FOR FREEDOM >>>

With less than 100 days until the election, Democrats are working around the clock to take Governor DeSantis down.
He represents everything they are working against. He's a threat to their radical agenda and they are deploying their war chest to keep him from continuing the Freedom Agenda.

To call the trajectory of our nation under the Biden administration “disastrous” would be an understatement. Joe Biden has failed Americans at every turn and Democrats have been complicit in his destruction of our country.

Biden’s failures are so glaring that his administration is past the point of explaining away his missteps to the American people. They are now actively changing definitions to spin the truth in favor of their false narratives.

[REJECT THE LEFT’S DISTORTION OF TRUTH]

As a leader, you can’t simply manipulate your way to success. Instead of attempting to correct course and right his many wrongs in office, Biden is now just rewriting history — but Floridians aren't falling for it.

Just like we didn’t fall for their change in narrative on their description of the “mostly peaceful protests” occurring as cities burned to the ground, or declaring our southern border “secure” at the same time that our country is experiencing more illegal border crossings than ever before, or changing the definition of woman to pander to the woke ideological playbook.

This isn’t anything new for the Biden administration or his corporate media lapdogs. They’ve been backtracking and running cover for Biden’s failures since he entered the Oval Office. It doesn’t take an expert to know that the crisis at our southern border is just that — a crisis. But you’ll never hear that term come from the White House or those reporting on the matter.

Legacy media outlets actually sent an internal memo directing staffers to not call the record amount of illegal border crossings and floods of fentanyl into our state and country a crisis. They must be exhausted from constantly spinning on Biden’s never ending hamster wheel of redefining and story shifting and backtracking they’ve done in the past few years — we know the American people certainly are.

[END THE MADNESS]

The limit to the Left’s maniacal demolition of anything that doesn’t fit their twisted version of reality does not exist. As Floridians and Americans, we must stand up against this war on reality waged by a party so hellbent on power they can no longer recognize the difference between right and wrong.

Governor DeSantis will always stand for the truth. There is no room for changing narratives and altering history in positions of leadership. And that is the difference between a leader and the Democrat Machine. Leaders seek the path that benefits the people they serve. The political Left seeks the path that benefits themselves.

[STAND AGAINST THE TYRANNICAL LEFT]

Democrats can continue on their woke rampage of redefining reality all they want, but they will never be able to rewrite the way Americans have been impacted by their bad policy. Come November, you have a choice: freedom or tyranny. Governor DeSantis’s number one priority is to put freedom first for all Floridians
 
SEPARATION OF POWERS

How Can Florida Gov. DeSantis Suspend Elected Prosecutor for Refusing to Enforce Certain Criminal Laws?

EUGENE VOLOKH | 8.4.2022 3:19 PM

  1. DeSantis cited Warren's having "publicly proclaimed in writing that he will not prosecute individuals who provide abortions in violation of Florida's criminal laws to protect the life of the unborn child."
  2. DeSantis cited Warren's having "acted as a law unto himself by instituting a policy during his current term of presumptive non-enforcement for certain criminal violations, including trespassing at a business location, disorderly conduct, disorderly intoxication, and prostitution."
  3. DeSantis also cited Warren's having publicly "pledge[d] to use our discretion and not promote the criminalization of gender-affirming healthcare or trans gender people," but acknowledged that "the Florida Legislature has not enacted such criminal laws." DeSantis therefore didn't argue that this pledge itself was neglect of duty, but argued that it "prove that Warren thinks he has authority to defy the Florida Legislature and nullify in his jurisdiction criminal laws with which he disagrees" and that this "fundamentally flawed and lawless understanding of his duties as a state attorney" led to his non-enforcement policy as to "trespassing at a business location, disorderly conduct, disorderly intoxication, and prostitution."

Your revisionist history won't hold water with me on this subject.

While Trump was going through multiple marriages, chasing porn stars and hob-nobbing with those like the Clinton's, and being in the Rat party for most of his life, Ron was serving as a Combat Decorated Seal Team Jag in Afghanistan, then for 3 terms in the U.S. Congress. And now he's serving as the best Florida Governor in my long lifetime.

While Ron is the beer in the glass getting it done, 'The Donald' has mostly been the airy foam flowing over the top....

I give 'The Donald' his 4 years worth of Presidential props, and he's done some other good stuff here and there through the years, but he screwed the pooch in DC on his first go around by being too ignorant to pick and listen to the right people as his advisors. He has a long list of failures in his hires and in not making the many firings that were necessary to begin the cleanup at the swamp.

For those that don't know, MEET Ron DeSantis

Ron DeSantis is the 46th Governor of Florida.
A native Floridian with blue-collar roots, Ron attended Dunedin High School and worked his way through Yale University, where he graduated with honors and was the captain of the varsity baseball team. He also graduated with honors from Harvard Law School. While at Harvard, he earned a commission in the U.S. Navy as a JAG officer. During his active-duty service, Ron deployed to Iraq as an adviser to a U.S. Navy SEAL commander in support of the SEAL mission in Fallujah, Ramadi and the rest of Al Anbar province. His military decorations include the Bronze Star Medal for Meritorious Service (the iG also has that commendation, among others), and the Iraq Campaign Medal.

Ron also served as a federal prosecutor, where he targeted and convicted child predators. He was elected to Congress in 2012 and advocated for congressional term limits and a balanced budget amendment. He also spearheaded oversight efforts to expose malfeasance in the IRS and in agencies involved in abusing their authority during the manufacturing of the Russia collusion conspiracy theory. Congressman DeSantis was also a leading champion for America’s veterans and helped enact reforms to the VA and place an emphasis on mental health.

Ron is married to Casey DeSantis, an Emmy Award winning television host. Together, they’re the proud parents of their daughters, Madison and Mamie, and their son, Mason.

I think that his military service saved him from what most attending those 2 universities eventually turn into....

RoundUp2_04082022.png

This week, Governor DeSantis signed the No Patient Left Alone Act that guarantees families the right to visit their loved ones in health care facilities.

“Here in Florida, we recognize that family and human connection is one of the most important aspects of physical, mental, and emotional well-being and we are ensuring Floridians are
never again denied the right to see their relatives and friends while in hospitals or nursing homes.” – Governor Ron DeSantis

MegaDumbFraudgator, Trump did what his advisors told him was in the best interest of the country. He shut the country down for 2 WEEKS, then left it up to the state Governors to reopen their own states as conditions warranted. --- Florida's Governor DeSantis's actions showed everyone else what they should have done afterwards.

And he put Operation Warp Speed in action to accelerate the development of treatments and vaccines for what he was told was a pandemic. He also personally advocated HCQ as a preventative and treatment (which i used to kick Co-V's ass, along with Ivermentin).
Those that then implemented Warp Speed are responsible for what they produced.

He did his job as President. Those that then took over and basically screwed the American people were Dr Faulty and Big Pharm. So for a change, put the responsibility for that chit were it rightly belongs, which is not at Trump's feet.

And what has the Brandon Adminstration done since taking office? He has claimed credit for the vaccine and for the scamdemic since he's been in office.

This morning, Charlie Crist — the pro-lockdown, career politician who is running to defeat Governor DeSantis — chose his running mate and she’s... definitely a choice.

Charlie’s choice for Lieutenant Governor, Karla Hernández Mats, is wait for it... an anti-parent, pro-lockdown, Castro regime-sympathizer, teachers’ union radical.

Even after the sweeping victories of Governor DeSantis-endorsed school board candidates — proving Floridians are looking for education, not indoctrination for our students — Charlie picks the Randi Weingarten of Florida as his choice for Florida’s Lieutenant Governor. Keep radical woke politicians out of our state! >>>>

This is a giant slap in the face to every Florida parent and student across the state.


As union boss, Karla joined Fauci in fighting to keep our kids locked out of schools. When Governor DeSantis kept schools open and students in the classroom, Karla protested by driving hearses around the city of Miami.

When Governor DeSantis removed racist and woke gender ideologies from the classroom, Karla fought for the indoctrination of our students by advocating to teach students to hate each other and our country.

Her extremism does not stop at her attempted destruction of our schools. Karla publicly mourned the death of murderous dictator Fidel Castro. Reject communism in Florida! >>>>

Mats wants to defund the police and thinks our law enforcement officers are racist. She sides with violent rioters and has actively worked against laws that put violent criminals behind bars.

Just like Charlie and Brandon, Mats wants to see a world where our students, our values, and our communities are under attack.

Charlie doesn’t care about Floridians or our state. He cares about being an extension of the Biden regime and turning the free state of Florida into a socialist dystopia.

It’s no secret that Charlie votes 100% of the time with Biden and Nancy Pelosi, and Karla is cut from the same cloth. She’s looking to destroy our country and attack our values.

This choice isn’t a slip up on Charlie’s part — this is a deliberate and concerted effort to turn Florida into the next California. Keep Florida Free! >>>>

The radical Left could not be more excited about Charlie’s extremist running mate and they’re wasting no time unleashing their war chest and flooding their money into our state.

The Crist-Mats ticket is now the most anti-parent, anti-freedom, anti-Florida ticket in state history.

We cannot allow these Biden puppets to turn our state blue. We’re working every day to Keep Florida Free, but we need your help in the fight. Can we count on your support today? >>>>

For Florida,
Team DeSantis

Florida Rated #1 in Fiscal and Economic Freedom​


The snowflakes (mostly from other states) are butthurt AF about Captain Ron announcing more tax cuts for Floridians. It's been fun clubbing them like baby seals in the comments section. 😂

 
Even after his abysmal start on the campaign trail, liberal elite mega-donors still flooded my opponent with donations.

In the first 24 hours after being nominated the Democrat candidate, my opponent raised $1 million dollars towards his election campaign.

The Left is pouring in money for my opponent because they know he will be another puppet for Biden to pull the strings and sink his claws deeper into the lives of the American people.

My opponent represents everything the Left is looking for in a candidate: blind loyalty to the Biden regime and total adherence to the radical Left’s woke ideologies.

The candidate doesn’t matter to them so long as they know he will be a good soldier for Brandon’s schemes.

I can assure you, I am no one’s puppet. While my opponent has spent the past few years in D.C. answering to the demands of the Biden regime, I’ve been in Florida answering the needs of the people of the Sunshine State.

It’s clear that the Democrats are using my opponent to infiltrate our state and do to Florida what Biden has done to America. It doesn’t take long to look around and see the destruction happening in other states at the hands of the Left’s woke agenda:

  • Soros-funded radicals allowing criminals to run rampant in the streets, destroying businesses and communities
  • Drugs pouring over our southern border and overdoses plaguing American families
  • Classrooms being injected with radical gender ideologies
  • Children being administered puberty blocking chemicals and even castrated
The list goes on.

Democrats’ vision for our society looks more like scenes from a dystopian horror film than everyday life in America – and they want to make that vision a reality in Florida.

They will stop at nothing to infect as many people as possible with their woke mind virus.

I’m not backing down in my mission to protect Floridians from the insanity of the Left, but I need your help to keep the fight going.

Democrats are not going to let up. They’re going to continue flooding money into our state. They know I’m the last line of defense against their radical agenda and they will fight until their last breath to get me out of their way.

Thank you for your support,
