With the feasting and fun of the holiday season behind us, January can feel like a good moment for a healthy reset. But rather than fixating on the latest.
you can read them however you want to read them. do you think that there is and governor desantis, i asked him about in this week, too much focus on this? do you think that it s enough? how do you balance that out in policy? so, look, i wrote the book on wokeness in america before many republicans even knew what this word was. but what i have said since day one of this campaign is that wokeism, like so many of the other risms, climatism, transgenderism they are symptoms of a deeper void. a void of purpose, meaning and identity so, yes, i think fixating on the symptom too much may cause us to police the plot. the real void is a void of what it means to be an american today. that s the void i m looking to fill. i think the way we defeat wokeness is not with a hammer. it is by diluting it to irrelevant by feel the vacuum of pursuance in this country with a vision of what it means to be a citizen of this nation. that s my approach in the campaign and i think it s a
partisan and then internal strife that this chilled efforts to vinvestigate former president trump. one official telling the post the decision was made early on to focus d.o.j. resources on the, quote, riot we ll come back to that because it wasn t just a random riot, the notion of opening up on trump was seen as fraught with peril. this is very james comeyesque. when instead of just doing the thing before doing the thing you are fixating, obsessing and sitting around at work talking about whether the thing might be interpreted as political it shouldn t be political. they should never go after
history has been intentionally wiped out. this is another attempt of wiping out african american history. but we have to be savvy enough to get through this time. one of the best things i think is happening, the entire world gets to see what we ve been suffering as floridians. we ve been dealing with this governor now for going into five years. he seems to get more and more extreme, he seems to be targeting and fixating on the african american committee, lgbtq, it seems like every week, here another group that is actually going against. immigrants. he s actually pushing a proposition of hate and division. there s no hopeful story or narrative behind what he saying. not one. if you look at what he s been doing, even in my district, district 20, we were supposed to have the nhl come in your district. and do a diversity inclusion national hockey league. still to come in and do a job fair. to create pipelines into the hockey league. now, you know as well as i do, there are probably no mi
i want to talk specifically about governor desantis and his order, banning state funding for diversity and equity initiatives, in colleges. what are your constituents telling you about this? this is a bill that is passed both chambers, and the governor is now signed. it s a fearful time to be in florida. right now, he seems to be fixating on different groups, especially african american groups. right now, the question and concern becomes, what s gonna come from this? in fermentation? we saw with the book been this week, how all the books were being scanned, we saw huge containers of these books that are being scammed. some are more empathetic books, so, we can t believe that this is where we re living now. all these big books and big suitcases and bags are being put there. so, we look at what s gonna be the implementation come this fall. if you look at the bills, specifically, it talks about advocacy. trying to block people from advocating, and you can t even advocate on either issue.
