Let's just see how the respective varsity football players attempt to get out of this one. https://www.news4jax.com/news/local...ial-literacy-class-for-high-school-graduation Gov. DeSantis signs bill to require financial literacy class for high school graduation WESLEY CHAPEL, Fla. – Gov. Ron DeSantis signed a bill Tuesday morning that will require all Florida high school students to pass a financial literacy class before graduating. The bill, put forward by local state senator Travis Hutson, requires students to take a half-credit course in personal financial literacy and money management. “This will provide a foundation for students to learn about the basics of money management, understanding debt, understanding how to balance a checkbook, understanding the fundamentals of investing. Any financial literacy has really been intertwined with economics courses, which you know, economics is a little bit different than financial literacy. And so we want a strong focus on economics, both micro and macro, but you want to also have standalone financial literacy,” DeSantis said.
That's the first thing that DeSantis has ever done that is even a bit sensible. I imagine it will turn out to include a bunch of homophobic nonsense in the fine print, though. Because DeSantis. barfo
The don't say gay and don't make white people uncomfortable laws are having exactly the affect they were intended to nationwide, as libraries are preemptively removing any books conservative white Christians might not like. Including a children's book on Islam. Anything about Nazi Holocaust. Anything remotely gay. Anything where people of color talk about their life experiences. Make America ignorant again. Or is it still?
But wait, I thought DeSantis was for NEVER Trumpers? https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/27/opinion/desantis-trump-republican-party.html
Saw that article. Basically Trump is evil but stupid and incompetent and his own stupidity sometimes stopped his evil intent. DeathSantis is smarter and focused. Totally focused on taking way civil rights and liberties. Which is why some on this board love him.
Billboards across Florida encourage people to 'say gay' https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/b...urage-people-to-say-gay/ar-AAVDMHz?li=BBnb7Kz
Affirmation. DeathSantis and those like you who support him consider us so evil our mere existence cannot be mentioned. It's important LGBTQ youth in particular see us, know they are not alone.
Citing Likely Racist Motives, Federal Judge Blocks Florida GOP's Voter Suppression Law "At some point, when the Florida Legislature passes law after law disproportionately burdening Black voters, this court can no longer accept that the effect is incidental." https://www.commondreams.org/news/2...dge-blocks-florida-gops-voter-suppression-law
New poll shows 80% of Florida residents oppose discrimination against LGBTQ people in employment and 68% support marriage equality. The don't say gay bill is part of hate campaign to undermine support for civil rights by proclaiming gays recruit children. Not a new argument. Used by Floridian Anita Bryant in the 1970s. Bryant's granddaughter is about to be married ... to a woman.
https://nypost.com/2022/04/02/ron-desantis-unexpected-rise-is-thanks-to-the-democrats/ Democrats only have themselves to blame for the rise of Ron DeSantis The mercurial rise of Ron DeSantis is the Democrats’ fault. I say this with gratitude, not regret. Absent some catastrophe, DeSantis is going to win a second term as governor of Florida this coming November and, after that, he has a fair shot of being president. This is partly because he has done an excellent job for his state. It’s also because he was unusually lucky in his enemies. Unable to help themselves, the Democrats have aided him at every stage. They still are. 2018 was a good year for the Democratic Party, but not so good a year that the quality of its candidates didn’t matter. Had the party nominated a credible centrist in Florida’s toss-up gubernatorial race — Gwen Graham, for example — that candidate would not only have won the governor’s mansion for the Democrats for the first time in two decades, she’d have ended DeSantis’ career. But the Democrats didn’t choose a credible centrist. They hosted a messy and divisive primary, selected the radical Andrew Gillum as their nominee, lost by 0.4 points, and set DeSantis up for a bright future. Opportunity: missed..................
This thread reminds me of a time pre-2016, when blue32 or whatever his name is, was still posting here. Cult of Trump = Cult of DeSantis
