Florida Governor Ron DeSantis deserves credit

By Mike Huckabee

It’s funny how quickly Florida has gone from being the butt of “Florida Man” jokes to being one of the biggest success stories of the pandemic and a state that’s leading the way in restoring common sense and the rule of the law. For that, much of the credit goes to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, who has become an almost daily media presence, almost like the “Anti-Biden.”

Here he is on Wednesday, refuting one of the stupidest ideas the left has come up with in years, and that’s really saying something. DeSantis announced that not only will Florida not “defund the police,” it will fund the police and then some, as he announced a $1,000 bonus for all cops, paramedics and firefighters who were on the job during the pandemic.

Here he is on Thursday, signing Florida’s new election integrity bill into law, live on “Fox & Friends.” It enforces voter ID and bans ballot harvesting. Yep, definitely the Anti-Biden!

And immediately afterward, former Hillary Clinton lawyer Marc Elias, the Anti-Election Integrity Lawyer, sued to try to overturn it.

Biden's Rogue DOJ

Apr 8, 2024
There are many reasons to be furious with the Biden Administration, from the Southern border to Afghanistan. But one outrage that strikes at the very heart and soul of America is his weaponization of government agencies to target political opponents and people of faith with vicious prosecutions that seek outrageous penalties for non-crimes.

    Bravo to Gov. DeSantis, Gov. Noem and all governors who are standing up for the citizens in their states. As it should be. Most issues are those which should be decided by the State legislatures, the federal government needs to keep it's corrupt nose out of the business of the states. Funny how, at the beginning of the panic demic--cuomo and like-minded democrat governors were adamant that the President had NO AUTHORITY to tell them how to deal with the "crisis." Of course, he wasn't telling states what to do, he was promoting the message of flip-flop fauci, the cdc, etc, on what THEY were promoting as how to handle it. Then, once the President said no more--the democrat governors did what cdc, the panic demic panel etc suggested but to the extreme. So, the Republican governors can very well run their states as they see fit---much like cuomo, newsom, et al run their democrat states as they fit (right into the ground.) The Republicans seem much more successful.
