On September 25, DeSantis issued an order that effectively nullified public health measures imposed by various local governments in Florida to combat the spread of the virus. DeSantis's order prohibits local governments from imposing fines or shutting down businesses for violations of mask mandates. The order also allows restaurants to immediately reopen at full capacity and restricted local governments from ordering restaurants to operate at less than half-capacity. On November 24, amid an increase in the number of COVID-19 cases and deaths in the state throughout the autumn, DeSantis extended this order. By late fall, confirmed cases of COVID-19 rose again in Florida, with over 10,000 new cases per day reported on over half the days of December 2020 and 13 of the first 14 days of 2021.
21,015 new cases were reported for December 31 on January 2, the highest daily report for 2020.

Posts: 657Trump Now Most Acquitted President In History
USA —President Donald Trump made history once again today after being acquitted in his second Senate impeachment trial. He is now the most acquitted president in American history.
Donald Trump issued a statement regarding this incredible honor.
"I have been completely and totally cleared of all wrongdoing in this pathetic witch hunt sham impeachment trial," said Trump. "I am now the most acquitted president ever -- even more than Bill Clinton. No president has ever been acquitted more than I have. Will I get the credit? Probably not, because of the fake news media. I am looking forward to continuing our MAGA movement together for many more acquittals to come!
According to sources, Republican Senators cheered and high-fived each other, knowing they had just outsmarted all the Democrats into bestowing such an unprecedented badge of honor on the former president.
"Oh no! What have we done? Wailed Senator Amy Klobuchar, suddenly realizing the Senate had given Trump yet another impressive world record, making him the subject of trivia questions for the next two centuries.
According to sources, Clinton will be handing over his giant gold "most acquitted ever" trophy to Trump in Mar-a-Lago next week. . . "
Semi-Satire Babylon Bee.

This though you don't get to spread violent speech calling for the deaths of public officials. And private internet platforms have every right to get tired of and thus remove your highly inflammatory, and ultimately violence inciting stolen election lies.

They are also used by politicians that know better, but still use them to win votes from people like you that don't know better. Trump was essentially an autocrat wannabe that tested the restraints applied by our democracy at every turn. Autocracy by the way is fundamental in both Fascism and Communism in practice.
P.S. With all this damning, irrefutable evidence naturally all the Trump faithful can say is "What about Antifa?" Yea what about them? Whataboutism is no more relevant here than it is when three year olds are arguing over crayons. Plus your typical Antifa activist follows Anarchism and calls for the abolishment of police forces and prisons. This is all antithetical to the views of your typical Democrat, though right wing media has attempted to make associations through various debunked conspiracy theories. More on that and other Antifa myths are found here.

Communist news (CNN, MSNBC) can't say anything bad about the Communist government but can destroy their opponents.
Communist government puts their opposition in jail as they are trying to do with Trump.
Communist govertment has hatred to everyone that does not agree with their policy.
Communist government wants equality. Keep everyone poor and reliant on the government. Only the communist party and their elite business partners live in luxury.
Communist government wants to end capitalism.
Sounds pretty much like the democratic party we have today.

I have liberal friends who seem dedicated to parroting this idea that somehow Florida is a COVID disaster while ignoring what's going on in places like New York and California. It's downright bizarre.

Trump did a great job and we already miss having him as president.
Trump defended the US, Biden is destroying USA by supporting antifa and BLM and their acts of domestic terrorism.

Is too bad we can't send the shit kickers in the panhandle to Alabama where they belong, then we'd be a solidly blue state. Yet we are still a swing state. We need to win back some South American immigrants that have been duped a lot recently by red baiting propaganda spread in South FL.

Thank God Biden is finally listening to science. There is no wealth without health.
As far as your communist nonsense. Name 1 Biden policy that is 'communist'. Can you even define communism? Was communism a concern of yours when trump kept taking the side of Putin? Or little Kim in North Korea-who your cult leader, the ku klux klown, djt fell in love with?
Sheesh! The nerve of a trumptard to invoke 'communism' as. A fewar and scare tactic after trump sided with putin even after putin interfered in the US elections, paid bounties to kill American soldiers, and just jailed his main opposition for no reason at all. Shame on you. Maybe learn a little science before you pop off about what Biden is doing.

Posts: 707Looks like more travel restrictions
In an effort to punish a very successful conservative Florida, 'this shit for brains Biden' is considering a interstate travel ban. So be prepared to be banned from travel to a bordering state to go to an airport or most likely international travel. This guy is a runaway train.
