Many years ago, as young man, I was a Peace Corps trainee scheduled to go to Afghanistan. Since Afghans, especially high-placed Afghans, were known to dabble in homosexual acts, we were questioned by a psychiatrist as to how to decline such an offer. This was long-enough ago that homosexual sex was considered a bad thing.

Anyway, after everyone hemmed and hawed about the correct and polite answer, the psychiatrist gave it: “No”. No explanation, just ‘No’. We tend to forget how powerful that little word is, if we dare to use it.

DeSantis just said it and other governors have to say it too.

Once again America’s Govenor, Ron DeSantis, leads the way.

If Trump can’t win, no one can. The deep state has time and many tentacles growing more each day, ready for anything and with no ‘repercussions’. Those who rule, make the rules! I do appreciate DeSantis’ ba!!s but are they for real or? Sorry to say but if anything happens to DT, the left will be even more embolden. DAMMIT! Just my piZZed off 2¢ worth day.

Every day I give thanks I live in Florida and have Desantis as my governor. DeSantis has been a consistent conservative, even when he was in Congress and started the Freedom Caucus. His actions, not just his words tell us who he is and that he is for real.

Love him as governor of Florida.
Hated him as stompy-foot wannabe president.

It’s refreshing to have DeSantis and Abbot fling this kind of stuff back into BiteMe’s face.

He is a solid conservative. .

My fear is Trump will be jailed or just lose like he did in 2020.

Desantis was our best bet either way IMHO. But hey that train has passed…go Trump!

Go get ‘em, Governor DeSantis!

Good to see this. Bring this insanity to a head and defeat it. Would love to see other states take a stand.

I read it cover to cover once a year. Without it, I’d be writing absolute gibberish.

Best Governor since Ronald Reagan, and perhaps ever!

I don’t think he is fundamentally flawed, in fact quite the opposite. What I do think is he was not wise enough to stay out of the clutches of the GOP donor class. Now back in Florida, away from the Washington pigs he is back to doing good works and I hope he is wiser for the experience.

EVERY GOVERNOR should follow Governor DeSantis lead on this!

Yes, but none of the Democrats will and some of Republicans won't either.
