Again, I totally disagree.
Based on the tenor of your post, one would assume you are on board with this Progressive "Woke" movement. Would love to hear what aspects you agree with AND more importantly what you disagree with.
Also, can you post examples of Trump Republicans being crazier than what the Obama "Fundamentally Transform America" agenda has done in just 21 months.
I wish Desantis would chill out a bit. he's starting to show a little too much crazy, and a little too much Trumpish. While part of me likes the MA bit, it comes across as being something of a six year old tantrum. It's not going to play well to moderates and that is who he is going to need to win the presidency.
It will likely play better than an open border.Quote:

Two wrongs don't make a right. And here we go with the "but they thing" again. Neither thing plays well with moderates.Quote:

Firstly, No that's not what I'm doing. I'm talking about a specific action Desantis made. You are the one who decided to then say "yeah but"Quote:

Whether it's legal or not really isn't the issue. You are playing with human lives.
Yes, the poor residents of Martha's Vinyard who had to contend with brown people for 36 hours!Quote:

That legality is probably gained by coming into the country, and filing for asylum, and there-by being here "legally" at that point
If not, and they are aliens here illegally, the governors are in trouble under federal law:
Some of what happened to get them there.Quote:
Domestic Transporting -- Subsection 1324(a)(1)(A)(ii) makes it an offense for any person who -- knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that an alien has come to, entered, or remains in the United States in violation of law, transports, or moves or attempts to transport or move such alien within the United States by means of transportation or otherwise, in furtherance of such violation of law.

Sounds like they lent a helping hand. I like DeSantis holding a presser to say he was going to send people to "greener pastures."Quote:
