I stopped caring about what Ron thinks some time ago.
Matt Gaetz is going to be the next governor of Florida, Trump is going to be the Republican nominee. I’m looking forward to Ron DeSantis disappearing into irrelevance shortly.
Seems like the path is Political position --> Grift----> Fox News Commentator
I hope not, we’d be going from bad to worse here.
You may not care what he thinks, but he cares great deal about what you think, and he's trying to put himself in a position where he can do something about it. So maybe you should start caring.
Knowing the DeSantis family as I do, I think he's an idiot. You can tell him I said that.
Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free…
Unless it’s bad for my political campaign!
Almost every time I quote that poem some fascist comes and argues with me that just because the French put it on a statue that doesn’t mean the American government has to help people. And while that is true, there is a reason the French put it on a gift to the US symbolizing the spirit of America at the time, and I’d like to think we still have that spirit somewhere.
The French didn't put it there. It was written by a Jewish American woman named Emma Lazarus who saw her fellow Jews coming to America and wanted to welcome them and everyone else. And basically the rest of America said, "nice poem, put it on the base of the statue."
Ah I didn’t know that, thanks for the lesson!
Or y’know, they arent white
I remember when he avoided denouncing neo-nazis protesting in Orlando a few months ago
I'm quite confused how much these nazis support Isreal and at the same time hate. Jews.
Anarchoevangelism — where Jesus returns to Israel to signal the rapture and to rescue all believers while the earth burns to hell. Typical fairy tail religious bull shit, taken seriously by complete morons.
The state of Israel is important to evangelical Christians. The Jews, not so much.
“The LifeWay poll also asked evangelical respondents what factors contribute to their support for the state of Israel. More than 6 in 10 cited God’s pledge to Abraham. The third-most-cited reason was that the existence of Israel was necessary for fulfilling prophecy. More than half of evangelicals said that was a reason they supported Israel’s existence.”
Why do all conservatives not realise that Palestinians are Semites?
"abhorrent"
He's using the wrong word; it more accurately describes his 2022 re-election as Florida governor.
Florida has the third-highest Jewish population of any state. Only New York and California have more. I suspect his constituents support this sentiment.
Plenty of Jews do not support Israel. Do not conflate Jew and Israeli.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Republican presidential candidate and Florida governor Ron DeSantis has rejected accepting Palestinian refugees from Gaza to the US, speaking at a campaign rally in the US midwest on Saturday.
DeSantis, who is tracking at around 12% support among Republican voters for the party’s nomination for next year’s presidential election – far below Donald Trump at 58%– spoke at a campaign rally in Creston, Iowa.
DeSantis’s comments come as some Republicans have sought to amplify an anti-immigration agenda, with claims by Maga-extremists that the Biden administration’s US-Mexico border policy could allow foreign nationals sympathetic to radical Islamist causes into the US.
The New York Post reported on Saturday that House Republicans had introduced new legislation to prevent the United States from accepting any new Palestinian refugees who might be fleeing the crisis in Gaza.
Separately, the fraud-indicted New York congressman George Santos has said he was “berated” by anti-war activists at the US Capitol on Friday as they protested Israel’s retaliatory strikes in Gaza.
Capitol Police said they had arrested Shabd Khalsa, 36, and “charged him with simple assault after an officer witnessed him have physical contact with a congressional staffer in the Longworth Building”.
The original article contains 508 words, the summary contains 194 words. Saved 62%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
none of them believe in Israel’s right to exist
Well, is on stolen land… so, they’re right.
Turn back the clock 70 yeas. As an Italian American I say fuck the Italians. Although most of them were more patriotic than most mother fuckers in this country. Fuck you's all cause it was racist, you stupid MFs. Forghettaboutit. My father fought the Chinese in Korea, but he love banging Chinese chicks.
