first of all, absolutely none whatsoever. unless you re looking for some way to whitewash history. i m pretty interested in finding out what all is in that list of suggestions as to how they should teach history. i m wondering today what will be taught about the rosewood massacre that had such an impact on florida, and i m sure would have an impact on anybody reading the history of florida. the governor ron desantis is now saying that he, quote, wasn t involved in the new instruction requirement, but he did defend it. i want to play what he said. i think what they re doing is i think that they re probably going to show some of the folks that eventually parlayed, you know, being a blacksmith into doing things later in life. but the reality is all of that is rooted in whatever is
historically been wrong with the gop, as well as a warning for what it could become again if any other candidates prevail in 2024. jeb bush was probably the best governor in the history of florida, and the reforms made during his tenure are the primary reason why the state has become as attractive as it has to conservatives of all ages. paul ryan s record is equally as solid. for the deployment of the reagan republican as an insult? the world is upside down. despite it not working, trump continues to behave the way he does. when he attempted to compete in an american election, he s proved himself to be a bewildering loser. ronald reagan won twice, including winning 49 states once, to remind viewers. it is remarkable how little has changed since 2020.
why we are here. and i think the bottom line is that here at new college, we do not fear people being educating. we don t fear in people learning about history, and above, all we do not fear any books. i think that speaks for itself, honestly. the new college students are fighting back. they have organized campaigns and they are asking people to join a coalition to defend their college, and their educational freedom by visiting save new college dot org. but governor desantis is a well funded and very powerful opponent. he won reelection last year with 60% of the vote and is now armed with what he believes as a political mandate. he has a supermajority in the state legislator. he now controls every aspect of florida s education system from higher education, down to the school boards, to the high school level where he has endorsed and supported candidates across florida. he is preparing for likely 2024 presidential bid, some of the wealthiest donors and the country are cutting him seve
