The real emergency is DeSantis' recent PR

Just wanted to put this up and show how committed DeSantis is to the Trumpian playbook. He will use every bit of power he can put his hands on to further his career.

Hopefully this is an indication that recent news is hurting him among senior voters. Unfortunately, as we have seen, desperate abuses of executive agency to further political ambition don't carry a lot of significant consequences these days.

The "talking points" element alleged in the title is really demonstrated when you follow the link in the "alert."

First paragraph of the landing page...

BLUUUUUUUUUVAL

Some quick and dirty numbers on Duval County Turnout.

The percentages match 2016 very closly.

2016 turnout-74.8% 2020 turnout (as of 7:10 PM: report) 74.5%

Percentage of Dem turnout 2016-75.1 2020-75

Percentage of Repub turnout 2016-82.1% 2020-82.7

Percentage NPA turnout 2016-60.5 2020-59.6

Percentages are the same but...

Dems added 26697 registered voters since 2016

Repubs added 14696 registered voters over 2016

For a difference of 12001

Current Dem turnout lead in Duval county...despite a 7.7% turnout disadvantage?

11259

Voter registration drives matter.

A lot of hard work went into those numbers.

Most of it probably done by

"Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering."

"Fear is the mind killer"

As our adversaries become more irrational, Compassion and Prudence become our most valuable tools. Thier behavior reflects a terror that lives in diseased hearts. It is a fear born and sustained in ignorance. We cannot hope to keep this terror from consuming them...but we must endeavor to keep it from consuming our nation.

There is no doubt...WE MUST FIGHT for the very soul of America in these times...but let us fight with the torch of humanity lighting our way.

The Promise of our great experiment in Liberty demands our rigourous discipline and an unwavering commitment to Hope.

Our grandparents task was to protect our nation.

It has fallen to us to heal it.

We cannot fail.

We must resist the power of the dark side.
