    Coincidentally, Brodeur is a piece of shit in his own right. He’s the scum bag that had a ghost “independent” candidate sending out mailers to split likely democratic voters. Just google “Brodeur ghost candidate.” He’s tied into Joel Greenberg and all of the other insane corruption happening in FL.

    It was only a few years ago that DeSantis touted the benefits of electric cars at a news conference announcing the construction of EV charging stations at rest stops along Florida’s Turnpike.

    “It’s amazing how much cheaper it is to just charge a vehicle than to fill up a gas tank,” DeSantis said at the time. “And so as technology evolves, we hope that that’ll be reflected in people’s pocketbooks. So we want to make sure we have the infrastructure in place to make that a reality.”

    I wonder what changed.

    Eskamani said DeSantis also has put personal politics first with culture war laws such as sexual orientation in schools, banning gay-themed books and drag shows, and making it harder for unions to collect dues.

    She and other Democrats have pointed out problems such as soaring insurance premiums and a spike in housing costs that go unsolved.

    “Not a single part of his agenda that passed is helping Floridians,” she said. “His agenda is tailored to the needs of Republican [primary and caucus voters].”

    Oh, I see. Republicans are busy abusing themselves and blaming it on others.
