Actually the @MiamiHerald endorsement of @CharlieCrist is SO important for everyone to read, I am tweeting it in its entirety as a thread here.

"Gov. Ron DeSantisā€™ Florida is a place of meanness. Itā€™s a place where dissent is muzzled, where personal rights triumph over the
greater good, where winning is more important than unity ā€” especially if that victory moves him closer to a White House run. Thatā€™s not the Florida we had four years ago. And itā€™s not a Florida that voters should tolerate for the next four years. Thereā€™s a far better choice
in the Nov. 8 election: Democrat Charlie Crist.
DeSantisā€™ first term in office has been defined by stunt after stunt and made-for-Fox-News grandstanding as he claims successive wins in the culture wars created by the politics of division that he exploits for his own gain.

Sanibel/Pine Island source: It's really bad down there.
The missing person count is up to around 4000 but there's roadblocks to accurately reconciling that number. There's a significant number suicides from the storm. Folks didn't evacuate, got flooded out, knew they were about
to drown but chose to end their life instead. They wanted someone on the phone with them in their final moments. A staff of 16 clerical workers took about 5300 calls and only missed about 50 or so. DeSantis is trying to block media from covering his disaster.
#RemoveRon
My source's wife is one of the clerical workers in the throes of this. She can not go on record because we have a petty, vindictive, dangerous governor and she is there to help people not to fight a governor running an imaginary presidential campaign.

Snippets from long @NewYorker article about the GOP flavor of the month. ā€œRon is the most selfish person I have ever interacted with. He has always loved embarrassing and humiliating people. Iā€™m speaking for othersā€”he was the biggest dick we knew."--a college 'pal' of DeSantis.
ā€œTo me, Ron DeSantis is a fairly run-of-the-mill politician who will do anything to get elected,ā€ he said. ā€œThe problem is what the Party has become. Itā€™s a race to the bottom.ā€--@GOP Stuart Stevens
ā€œRonā€™s weakness as a politician is that he doesnā€™t give a fuck. Big donors? He doesnā€™t give a shit. Cancels on them all the time.ā€ "Thereā€™s no eye contact and little or no interaction. The moment I start to ask him a question, his head twitches.

Ex Alachua County School Superintendent @DrCarleeSimon, the victim of DeSantis's petty vindictiveness, fired after trying to protect students from a deadly pandemic, has created Families Deserve Inclusive Schools (FDIS) "in response to Governor DeSantisā€™ unprecedented attacks
on our public schools." FDIS was formed to "protect students, teachers and families from the Governorā€™s destructive education policies, ensuring that teachers and students feel safe in classrooms regardless of background and identity. ā€œAfter two decades of budget restraints
and neglect by the Republicans in Tallahassee, itā€™s clear to everyone ā€“ students, parents, and educators ā€“ that Floridaā€™s public school system has suffered. Now, Ron DeSantis seeks to force his extreme agenda on students. Far from a defender of parental rights, the Governor is

When Trump supporters started burning their shoes and throwing their razors away, I thought šŸ¤” "they're gonna be barefoot with neck beards? Sounds like the Taliban."

"Ron DeSantis is far more dangerous than Donald Trump because he's more savvy, he's more coy & he doesn't have the pitfalls that Trump does. DeSantis will announce he's running for president on this notion of the 'free state of Florida.' Florida is not free if your kids can't be
exposed to the full curriculum that would make them smarter or better educated students; Florida's not free if you can't get a test or treatment for Covid; Florida's not free if you don't have access to the ballot box; Florida's not free if you're a voter who, thru your
municipal government you vote and, by majority determined home rule, and then Gov. DeSantis says 'I'm not gonna let you do that,' and he kneecaps local voters. Florida's NOT free. It's a narrative that Ron DeSantis is very successfully selling which is what makes him dangerous,

This exceptional editorial is a MUST READ for anyone with half a brain in Florida, as well as those with children, parents, grandparents and loved ones in Florida. I'll thread the entire thing here because some people may not be able to read it in its entirety and it must be read
Floridaā€™s summer of suffering was also a summer of silence for Ron DeSantis. The governor had nearly nothing to say about his stateā€™s lengthy run as No. 1 in the nation in COVID cases, No. 1 in hospitalizations and No. 1 in deaths. Instead, the governor held almost daily news
conferences intended to burnish his presidential bona fides among the MAGA crowd, and boost his presidential ambitions. Through it all, the governor pointedly ignored the elephant in the room: That Florida ā€” his state, his responsibility ā€” was the epicenter for a deadly new

#RonDeSantis is a hemorrhoidal hypocrite of epic proportion:
Despite raging against censorship and ā€œcancel culture,ā€ he now wants to infringe on studentsā€™ 1st Amendment rights to express their political opinions.
He wants to make it illegal to ask whether youā€™re vaccinated, but
wants to force you to tell the government who you voted for.
He claimed heā€™s fighting ā€œindoctrination,ā€ but he is trying to punish students for voicing their political beliefs.

He calls Florida an "Oasis of Freedom," but bans press who disagree with or challenge him.
The mission in Florida is more important than ever. Ron DeSantis wants to suppress voters and people who disagree with him. Will you stand with studentsā€™ free speech? mobilize.us/votersoftomorrā€¦
