Schmidt Meister Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Top Florida State Lawmaker Backs Tweak That Could Boost A DeSantis 2024 White House Bid. Florida Governor Ron DeSantis won’t have to quit his current job to pursue a promotion to the White House if the Sunshine State’s top two lawmakers get their way, according to a report. Incoming Florida House Speaker Paul Renner, a Republican, said he supports changing a state law that would require DeSantis to resign in order to run for president. DeSantis has not announced plans for a 2024 White House bid, but he is widely seen as a formidable primary competitor to former President Trump, who is running again. “A good idea,” Renner called the suggestion of repealing the so-called “resign to run” law. Renner spoke Tuesday after his colleagues formally elected him to lead the state’s lower chamber. New Senate President Kathleen Passidomo said she was on board with the change, too. “If Speaker Renner thinks it’s a good idea, I think it’s a good idea,” she told reporters. The law states that “Any officer who qualifies for federal public office must resign from the office he or she presently holds if the terms, or any part thereof, run concurrently with each other.” But legal experts differ on how it might apply to a presidential run by DeSantis, who was re-elected as governor November 8 with a victory margin of nearly 20 percentage points. Jon Mills, a constitutional law professor at the University of Florida, said in October it could depend on how far DeSantis got in a White House bid. “The statute in text does say federal,’’ he said. “The question is when? What does ‘qualification’ mean, in terms of running for president? Does it mean you are the final nominee or is it when you qualify for the first primary state?” But Pinellas County Supervisor of Elections Julie Marcus wrote on her website that the law would not apply to a DeSantis effort to trade Tallahassee for Washington. “The “resign-to-run” law prohibits an officer from qualifying as a candidate for another state, district, county or municipal public office if the terms or any part overlap with each other unless the officer submits a resignation from the office the person presently holds,” she wrote. “Therefore, the “resign-to-run” law would not preclude a sitting state, district, county, or municipal officer from qualifying as a candidate for federal office without resigning from the office the person presently holds as long as the officer is not also seeking to qualify for re-election to his or her present office.” So far, only Trump has announced a 2024 bid. But a new poll from Iowa, where the presidential primary season gets underway every four years with the Iowa caucuses, showed Hawkeye State Republicans narrowly favor DeSantis over Trump, given the choice for 2024. The Neighborhood Research and Media poll, released on Monday, showed 32% of respondents picked DeSantis as their first choice to run for president, followed by Trump at 30%. The poll reflects a mammoth 23-point swing toward DeSantis from June, when Trump was the favorite among 38% of respondents and DeSantis was favored by only 17%, and an even bigger 46% reversal from November 2021, when Trump led 56%-12%. https://www.dailywire.com/news/top-florida-state-lawmaker-backs-tweak-that-could-boost-a-desantis-2024-white-house-bid 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schmidt Meister Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 Me: Well, this is a tad on the pervert, sick side. WTF is Tampax thinking? Why doesn't Tampax just FRICKIN' SELL TAMPONS and shut their damn mouths ... you've got a captive audience ... just do what you do. ‘Disgusting And Creepy’: Tampax Boycott Trends After Bizarre Tweet From The Brand Goes Viral. The feminine product brand Tampax was trending on Twitter Tuesday as some followers demanded a boycott. Tampax had already come under fire this year due to its leftist ideology and willingness to promote gender theory. This time, Tampax is taking heat for a strange and snarky tweet that some have interpreted as trolling men, though the intended audience is unclear. “You’re in their DM’s. We’re in them. We are not the same,” the tweet read, seemingly referencing that tampons go inside women and are closer to those individuals than the men trying to hit on them. Followers were outraged at this sentiment, which they claimed was “sexualizing” tampon usage. “Peak patriarchy: a company making women’s products insults its entire customer base and thinks this is OK. You utter creeps,” one person shared. “A women’s period products company is getting off on the idea of their products being inserted in girls and women, getting there first, while men are chatting them up hoping for sex. Overtones of rape, [pedophilia], misogyny, what a hat-trick,” another agreed. Also me: "So…A tampon is saying, to a dude framed as a sexual rival to the tampon, basically, ‘hey, bro. You’re too slow. I totally *hit* that already. No, it’s disgusting and creepy." Many outraged users pointed out how girls as young as 11 were likely to use tampons, which they claimed made the sexual joke even more inappropriate. Flashback: In September 2020, Tampax inspired controversy by posting a tweet that said, “Fact: Not all women have periods. Also a fact: Not all people with periods are women. Let’s celebrate the diversity of all people who bleed!” 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pipedreams Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 https://www.zerohedge.com/political/special-counsel-investigating-trump-tool-attack-political-enemy-fbi-veteran "The timing of the appointment is significant, Ruskin said, noting how it dovetailed with pledges by House Republicans to investigate President Joe Biden and his administration once the GOP takes the gavel in January. “Using the legal system in baseless investigations and prosecutions has been a hallmark of the anti-Trump campaign since before 2016,” Ruskin, who served 27 years with the FBI and is a contributor for The Epoch Times, said in an interview. Ruskin believes that the special counsel investigation serves a particular purpose. “It’s an old trick,” he said. “They’ll be hoping to divert attention from the congressional investigations and focus instead on a baseless special counsel investigation, because there’s no question that the legacy media is going to jump on board and give this front page attention, while the investigations being conducted by Congress will either be ignored or relegated to the back of the newspaper.”" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pipedreams Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 Wonder how much FTX money McConnell sent to Murkowski in Alaska? https://nationalfile.com/mcconnells-senate-leadership-fund-received-2-5-million-from-ftx/ "The now bankrupt cryptocurrency exchange FTX donated $2.5 million to the McConnell-influenced Senate Leadership Fund, a super PAC that withheld funding from or attacked a handful of America First, “MAGA” candidates for U.S. Senate. While the Senate Leadership Fund opted to cancel a critical $9 million in ads supporting Blake Masters in Arizona, it did donate to senators who voted to impeach former President Trump. A similar story played out in the U.S. House of Representatives, where soon to be House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) used FTX funds to attack MAGA candidates in GOP primaries." 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defense: Colorado gay club shooting suspect is nonbinary. (Uhhh, probably NOT MAGA) Hundreds of people, many holding candles and wiping away tears, have gathered in a Colorado Springs park to honor those killed and wounded when a gunman opened fire on a nightlife venue that for decades was a sanctuary for the local LGBTQ community. COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) — The alleged gunman facing possible hate crime charges in the fatal shooting of five people at a Colorado Springs gay nightclub is nonbinary, the suspect's defense team says in court filings. In several standard motions filed on behalf of Anderson Lee Aldrich on Tuesday, public defenders refer to the suspect as “Mx. Aldrich," noting in footnotes that Aldrich, 22, is nonbinary and uses they/them pronouns. The motions deal with issues like unsealing documents and evidence gathering, not Aldrich's identity and there was no elaboration about it. Aldrich, who was beaten into submission by patrons during Saturday night's shooting at Club Q, was scheduled to appear in court for the first time Wednesday by video from jail. The motive in the shooting was still under investigation, but authorities said Aldrich faces possible murder and hate crime charges. https://www.wfmj.com/story/47750910/colorado-shooting-suspect-changed-name-as-teenager-in-texas 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
