After the DeSantis admin steered $10 million from a settlement to a “charity” spearheaded by Casey DeSantis, the “charity” gave $5 million a piece to organizations that gave millions to a political committee waging an anti-marijuana campaign championed by DeSantis.

Corruption.

Now the state will never get the money, leaving dozens of projects in limbo, from a plan to raise roads in St. Augustine to a $150 million effort to strengthen canals in South Florida. #floridaresistance
FEMA slashes $300 million in flooding, hurricane relief projects in Florida
The money would have paid to elevate roads, shore up canals and fix water treatment systems from Jacksonville to Miami-Dade County.

Every accusation is a confession. DeSantis imported a RW "activist" who bragged about inventing the CRT panic to heighten racial fears to sit on the board of the now diminished New College.

Living rent free in the Governor’s head is fun!

God forbid Democrats and Republicans agree that we should restore transparency to University Presidential searches and allow merit to be the decider, not political preference.

“paid for by cruise ship fees” is exactly why health officials should not be baffled tbh
The CDC's cruise ship inspectors have been laid off, as well as agency's head epidemiologist for investigating cruise ship outbreaks

That baffled health officials since this program is paid for by cruise ship fees, not taxpayer dollars

You know how Florida got rid of in-state tuition for undocumented graduates. It's straight from the Project 2025 playbook: Deny loan access to those who are not U.S. citizens or lawful permanent residents, and deny loan access to students at schools that provide in-state tuition to illegal aliens.
