Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis Goes Nuclear on Biden Over New COVID Mandates in Must-See Rant
By: Kyle Becker
Way to go Governor De Santis! Thanks for standing up to the fascist and defending the constitution, states rights, local initiatives, and individual rights. We are a free people. Biden deliberately spread the China virus around the country in order to use it to increase government power over our lives. Well, we are not going to comply. We the people have rights we will not willingly surrender to the fascists in DC.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis Goes Nuclear on Biden Over New COVID Mandates in Must-See Rant
by Kyle Becker about an hour agoupdated 32 minutes ago
Governor Ron DeSantis has clearly had enough of President Joe Biden and the CDC’s imperious overreach into the lives of Americans and the State of Florida’s affairs.
On Wednesday, the Republican governor, who is widely considered to be a contender for the 2024 GOP presidential nomination should he announce, sounded off on Biden’s COVID mandates.
Watch below:
“We can either have a free society, or we can have a biomedical security state,” DeSantis said. “Florida, we’re a free state.”
“Joe Biden has taken it to himself to try to single out Florida over COVID,” DeSantis said. “This is a guy who ran for President saying he was going to quote shut down the virus. And what has he done? He’s imported more virus from around the world by having a wide-open southern border. You have hundreds of thousands of people pouring across every month,” he continued.
“And it’s not just from Mexico; in fact, it’s rarely from Mexico,” DeSantis added. “You have over 100 different countries where people are pouring through. Not only are they letting them through there, they’re farming them out all across our communities across this country, putting them on planes, putting them on buses; you think they’re being worried about COVID for that? Of course not.”
“So he’s facilitating who knows what new variants are out there, but I can tell you whatever variants around the world, they’re coming across that southern border,” he went on. “And so he’s not shutting down the virus; he’s helping to facilitate it in our country, and what is his big solution? What is he so upset about Florida?”
“His solution is he wants to have the government force kindergartners to wear masks in school,” DeSantis said. “He doesn’t believe the parents should have a say in that. He thinks that should be a decision for the government. Well, I can tell you in Florida, the parents are going to be the ones in charge of that decision,” DeSantis said, as the audience applauded.
“And one of the major medical people in his administration just recently told parents that they should be wearing masks at home when they’re around their own children. This is insane. Joe Biden also believes that vaccination should be mandated by force of government and that you should have to show vaccination status to be able to participate in society now,” DeSantis said. He said plainly that Biden “rejects science.”
“He rejects science because he denies the fact that people that recover from COVID have long-lasting immunity, and that’s been proven time and time again,” DeSantis continued. “The data is very clear, so his vision is just like in New York City (where some people think) restaurants should ban young kids from being able to go in because they’re not eligible for vaccination and law-abiding citizens have to produce proof of their medical records, just to go to the gym or attend events, or just to participate in everyday society.”
“He wants that, but yet if you want to vote, he thinks it’s too much of a burden to show a picture ID when you’re voting,” he added. “So no voter ID, but you have to show your medical papers just to be able to live in everyday life? Give me a break,” DeSantis bellowed.
“And so I think the question is, is, we can either have a free society, or we can have a biomedical security state, and I can tell you, Florida. We’re a free state, people are going to be free to choose to make their own decisions about themselves, about their families, about their kids’ education, and about putting food on the table, and Joe Biden suggests that if you don’t do lockdown policies, then you should ‘get out of the way,’” DeSantis added.
“Well, let me tell you this,” DeSantis said. “If you’re coming after the rights of parents in Florida. I’m standing in your way; I’m not going to let you get away with it.”
“If you’re trying to deny kids a proper in-person education, I’m going to stand in your way, and I’m going to stand up for the kids in Florida. If you’re trying to restrict people, impose mandates. If you’re trying to ruin their jobs and their livelihoods and their small business, if you are trying to lock people down, I am standing in your way, and I’m standing for the people of Florida.”
“So why don’t you do your job? Why don’t you get this border secure, and until you do that, I don’t want to hear a blip about COVID from you,” DeSantis concluded.

DeSantis needs to stick to ice cream.
As if Floridians were not dying of his incompetence.
What does voter id have to do with beating the virus?
Nothing, but evidently DeSantis feels he should connect the two, and he did in this "rant".
I've yet to see this guy say anything worth listening to.
My question is this. How can one either reject or accept science, when the reporting on the subject matter is less than transparent?
I've been reading about Massachusetts for a while, because the state, for a while, seemed to actually be reporting the numbers. As of August 3, I can't say that's the case.
Sounds great. 0.009% of those vaccinated, what a small number. The problem I have with this breakdown is that I'd like to know the total number of hospitalizations since January, vax or not. I'd like to know the hospitalized numbers concerning the delta variant, total, vax and not. I don't want to know the percentage of vaccinated people that wind up in the hospital. According to Massachusetts numbers, there are currently 245 people hospitalized in the state. see below link.
How many of those 245 in the hospital are among the 395 vaccinated people reported hospitalized by Massachusetts? That's what I want to know. Currently, vaccinated and unvaccinated, only 0.0036% of the total Massachusetts population is in the hospital with covid. (assuming 6.895 million residents). If they minimized everything on those terms, we wouldn't be having a conversation.
Sounds like it's time for DeSantis to join Tucker over in Hungary kissing Viktor Orbán's ring.
