Defiant DeSantis Rejects Lockdowns: ‘Florida Is Open And We’ve Got Your Back!’
By: Chris Donaldson
Way to go Florida and other red states! It’s great to see rebellion and resistance to the covidian fascists who demand lockdowns and excessive mask control freak mandates while trying to guilt shame the free states with active economies as super spreaders. Well, bleep them all!

Florida’s Ron DeSantis continues to demonstrate why he is the best governor in America by defying those who are demanding that he impose punishing lockdowns in his state.
DeSantis is on a collision course with the Biden regime due to his rejection of the measures that have been employed by Democrat governors who have destroyed millions of lives and jobs and shuttered an untold number of businesses as a response to COVID.
In a video released over the weekend, the Republican leader touted Florida’s ability to effectively manage the virus while allowing citizens to earn a living, making the Sunshine State a prime destination for those fleeing failed states to escape the hellish existence of life with the Democrat boot on their necks.
According to Gov. DeSantis: “ Every Floridian has the right to earn a living. Florida is open, and we’ve got your back. ”
DeSantis has stayed true to his message that lockdowns don’t work.
He added:
“If you work in a restaurant, we have your back. If you’re a hairstylist, we protect your right to earn a living,” he said. “And if you are a parent, we ensure your kids have the right to attend school in person. Lockdowns do not work. School closures have been disastrous yet even today we see across our country businesses shuttered, lives ruined, and schools closed.”
Despite the constant scorn from the corrupt media, Florida has served as a model on how to handle COVID by prioritizing the needs of the elderly and most vulnerable citizens as well as increasing the availability of vaccines to those who wish to receive them.
The governor’s defiance comes after an unpublished report by the White House Coronavirus Task Force calling for Florida to shut down bars, restaurants and gyms was leaked to a far-left pressure group in an effort to sabotage DeSantis and the state’s thriving economy.
Via The South Florida Sun Sentinel :
The highly contagious COVID-19 variant first detected in the United Kingdom is likely more widespread in Florida than publicly released data would suggest, while homegrown mutations of the virus have probably already produced other, more infectious strains here, the latest White House Coronavirus Task Force report warns.
The report, dated Jan. 17 but just released from Florida Department of Health, recommends Floridians take action now — “before an increase in hospitalizations is seen” — including a campaign with retailers reminding customers to wear masks and “substantially” curtailing or closing public indoor spaces where masks can’t be worn continually.
That includes bars, indoor dining and gyms, the report said.
That suggestion, though, is unlikely to gain traction. In late September, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis lifted restrictions on bars and restaurants that had required them to limit capacity. He has since threatened to intervene if local leaders try to restrict privately owned businesses.
“Just use common sense,” DeSantis said in December. “Let’s keep people employed.”
Democrats continue to lose ground in Florida which outside of the densely-populated southern counties is solidly Trump country and DeSantis could be well-positioned for a 2024 presidential run if he chooses to do so.

—Democrat-run states are now calling on the nation to follow the science by doing what Florida did back in May, opening their economies with reasonable precautions and protections for the vulnerable
Really Sean?
Your article was satire...
our article was satire.
No shit!
You think Cuomo would actually admit he fucked up? Do you not get what is being made fun of here?
You read this and didn't understand it's obviously satire?:
D.C. Mayor Bowser agreed, saying, "The SCIENCE says we must reopen. We cannot kill every small business and restaurant in the city. Think about how a tanking economy would hurt President Biden."
She also said, "We must catch that rascally plumber Mario!"
Or maybe this hit a little close to the mark?
Governor Newsom isn't quite on board yet, saying he will wait to follow the science and reopen until Kamala Harris is president.
Wow! Far right wing conspiracy fascists just get dumber every day.
You have to admit it: It doesn't seem to make much difference in deaths. Despite having the highest concentration of old people (the most vulnerable population) in the country, Florida is about middle of the pack in deaths per capita .
And the whole US was low during the summer. We spend more time outside, so the spread is minimized. I would say the same for Florida. Also, seniors, in general, know what to do, which we didn't know so well in March and April of last year.
Bullshit! Independence Day was celebrated all across America in big cities and small towns! You are delusional if you believe otherwise...
