Grain of salt, given its a lady from Reddit, but they're claiming that a broad swath of books are getting removed from their nieces elementary school (link)

The reasoning in the post was:

 

It'll be morbidly interesting to see how much is confirmed as there's more measures taken against knowledge and journalism to cover it

Curious to see how Adventures of Huck Finn is holding up, what with Jim unappreciatively leaving his place of employment without permission.

Lol, is that article just an excuse for the NYT to write about the shit talking Trump is doing?

"Let's do a thought piece on how Governor DeSantis should respond to criticism from former President Trump."

"Ok, you mean you want me to write about how Trump calls him a meatball?"

"Exactly."

Meatball Ron is fucking hilarious.  Especially considering it is likely that Trump has busted his ass to lose a bunch of weight JUST so he can use it without looking stupid.  I mean, all that WOULD be hilarious, if it were an episode of The Office involving Michael Scott and Dwight, instead of the 2 men most likely to be the 2024 GOP nominee for POTUS.

Give Trump credit, Meatball Ron will stick and go over well with his audience even though he outweighs Ron by a good 100 pounds. Trump knows how to hide some of his weight though.  Ron's not nearly as obese as Trump, but he doesn't help himself with those ill-fitting suits and go-go boots.

He figured the stilettos give him a few extra inches making him look slimmer

You actually think Trump would work hard to lose weight so that he doesn't look like a hypocrite?  lol, no.  If he lost weight it's because he's dying.

yeah, I said this on some other threads and I'm sure many of y'all have noticed...he does have a markedly thinner appearance lately and not in a healthy way.  He's still overweight but the fat is kinda "hanging" off his big frame now instead of being packed in like jell-o.  He could still be 300 pounds and call him Meatball Ronny on the debate stage and his base would lap it up because "Trump's not fat, he's just got a Commanding Build!"  Meanwhile, DeSantis is probably 5'9" and 200 pounds, overweight but not obese.  But he just does not carry his weight well, and dresses like he was shopping with Bobby Hill in the Husky section at Gymboree.

It's only a matter of time until MAGA goes from banning books to burning books. In which state does this happen first: Texas or Florida? Or has it already happened? Hell, Christians burned Beatles albums in the South after John Lennon said the "Beatles were bigger than Jesus" (which was probably true among youth at the height of Beatlemania). 

Of course, the Beatles were also part of a communist plot to control the minds of American and Christian youth in the 1960s. Now it is the Left trying to hypnotize the Christian kids into being woke!

I get his attack on liberal arts/humanities/social sciences.  It's not the problem his moronic base thinks it is, but I get why he's doing it.  

But what possible outcome other than "da fuh", after all the inroads the GOP has made with Hispanic voters in the South, can possibly be gleaned from vilifying Spanish courses in Florida?  Even for DeSantis, that seems like a bizarre gambit.

The AAU should announce they will stop accepting transcripts from students in Florida for lack of educational rigor. UF would obviously have to accept them, but they are the only AAU University in Florida. This is all fun and games for Florida Republicans until their spawn are frozen out of most of the elite universities in the US. 

Yes please … but no retaliation allowed. Florida fishing waters federally mandated to be open to all.

Your average Florida man redneck wouldn't give a shit about that.  Now get the NCAA to revoke the membership of all Florida schools under the guise of "preserving the sanctity of the student athlete role" and there would be hell to pay from the Hee Haw contingent.

Besides, it's not like Gata, Free Shoes and the U bring a whole lot to the table these days anyway.

Why does Christopher Rufo have so much influence among cultural conservatives? He’s a nobody.

He presses the right grievance buttons to get the Chrispy's and Poe's and WWS's of the world worked up. Once they're riled up he marshalls their rage into political action. Just look at what they've accomplished with book bannings and school board action. That is why he has influence among conservatives.

He's back to the old nickname today:

1d

Ron DeSanctimonious wants to cut your Social Security and Medicare, closed up Florida & its beaches, loves RINOS Paul Ryan, Jeb Bush, and Karl Rove (disasters ALL!), is backed by Globalist’s Club for NO Growth, Lincoln Pervert Project, & “Uninspired” Koch — And it only gets worse from there. He is a RINO in disguise!, whose Poll numbers are dropping like a rock. Good luck Ron!

And a few days ago, he wanted everybody to know that the polls are competitive, or not competitive or whatever

Quote

Just took a very big lead in the Polls. People want to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, and fast. Right now, we are a Nation in Decline! Donald J. Trump - 50%, Ron DeSanctimonious - 24%, Mike Pence - 9%, Nikki Haley - 7%, Ted Cruz - 4%. Head to head: Donald J. Trump - 61%. Thank you!
