Wen genau Andreas Scheuer und weitere Kolleg:innen von der #CDU/#CSU in den #USA kürzlich mit ihrem Besuch beehrt haben, verdeutlicht dieser beunruhigende Beitrag von Focus Online.
Frauenfeindliche Gesetze sind in den USA auf dem Vormarsch. Vor allem in Bundesstaaten wie Virginia oder Florida. In Florida ist bekanntlich Ron #DeSantis Gouverneur. (piqd)

USA erniedrigen Frauen mit „pinken Steuern“ und „Menstruationsgesetzen“

Immer mehr Amerikanerinnen machen sich Sorgen über frauenfeindliche Gesetze. So wollte man in Florida High-School-Athletinnen über ihre Periode ausfragen. Auch beim Einkaufen müssen Frauen oft tiefer in den Geldbeutel greifen als Männer. Produkte,...

An interesting analysis of the Ron DeSantis algorithm, an algorithm for fascism. A pathetically simple algorithm it is. And why, in this instance, the algorithm is likely to fail.

How pudding and a mouse ended DeSantis' White House dream

The crux, FTA: The Ron DeSantis method of politics is to watch enough television to learn what the new conservative culture war is supposed to be, upon which he adopts it as the newest fundamental aspect of his persona.

How pudding and a mouse ended DeSantis' White House dream

There have been multiple pre-postmortems on Ron DeSantis' still-unannounced presidential campaign, and the most complete one might be David Lurie's piece in Public Notice. Mother Jones is also weighing in. The proximate cause of these new pieces...

One of the many truly disturbing things DeSantis pulled off in the 2022 race was trumping up cases against a handful of black people who supposedly fraudulently registered to vote. The "fraud" was around the implementation of the 2018 ballot initiative that passed with 2/3 voting for it to let ex-felons to vote. It smelled bad when it happened and it only smells worse as time goes on. When people ask me who is worse, Trump or DeSantis, I still say it is Trump because I don't think DeSantis would go through with a literal coup like Trump did in 2020 nor do I think he is as mentally unstable so I'd trust him more with the nuclear football. That is a very very low bar though and DeSantis has proved to excel at some aspects of implementing autocracy that Trump never nailed down well. That may be because of the scale of control of the media markets and government in Florida and outlets like Fox propping up DeSantis more than they would have hoping for a non-Trump Trumpy alternative. Neither of these people should be anywhere near executive power at the scale of governorship or worse POTUS. This is a gift link I found so should not be behind a paywall. #uspoli #trump #desantis #GOP #Election2024 #CivilRights #VotingRights

Not too farfetched as he now enjoys torturing US

Flordia Gov. Ron DeSantis was involved in a tetchy exchange with a reporter after being questioned about whether he witnessed detainees being tortured in Guantanamo Bay.

During a press conference in the Museum of Tolerance in West Jerusalem Thursday, DeSantis was questioned about a former detainee's claim that he watched as he was force fed while working as a naval attorney at the base.

"Do you honestly believe that's credible? It's ... 2006, I'm a junior officer, do you honestly think that they would've remembered me?" DeSantis responded angrily.

Scott Maxwell, a columnist for the Orlando Sentinel, argued this week that #DeSantis' obsession with punishing #Disney had become so destructive that "the wheels have come off" the entire venture.

The problem, as Maxwell sees it, is that DeSantis simply doesn't know how to handle improving his national profile in a way that doesn't involve nonstop culture warring that will grow off-putting to non-Republican voters.

"See, your average #American doesn’t believe #Mickey and #Minnie are trying to turn #preschoolers #gay or that the Main Street Electrical Parade is a covert #Pride operation," he writes. "They’re not obsessed with #drag queens. And they’re not keen on #book #bans." #LGBTQ #Florida #GOP #GOPLiars #Disneyworld

What a day to make heads explode,…

Between #TrumpVirus and #MTG in New York, and the cesspool/swamp team of #DeathSantis & #Muskvirus
Missing Trump U? Tired of universities that actually educated? Angry about people who love #truth? Step Right Up

Headline of Sarasota (FL) Observer: “Musk plans for private, new New College” is the headline."
[Img Alt: Photo is of Musk carrying a sink.]

Caption: "Elon Musk said he’s excited to get rid of “everything but the kitchen sink” philosophy to New College"

"DeSantis, saying New College had drifted too far into “woke” ideas, appointed six new board members for the school in early January. The move led to weeks of protests from some students and alumni and brought national political attention to the 110-acre campus on Sarasota Bay.

Musk, 51, paid $1.96 billion for New College - a significant number honoring the year - 1960 - the school was founded, according to a statement."…

"Spaceships and EVs and tweets, and stuff are nice, but higher education, that’s the bomb, man. It has long been a passion of mine."

I was wondering what was up with that whole "this will be in effect until 21 years after the death of the last survivor of the descendants of King Charles III, King of England living as of the date of this Declaration," language in that whole Disney thing. I figured it was something very specific they were trying to accomplish legally. Apparently it is all about a longstanding legal tradition and a common law concept known as the “rule against perpetuities.” Basically you have to tie the covenant to 21 years after the death of some living person at the time it was signed. I figured they were going to make sure the legal case was buttoned up tight as a drum. Go Disney! FU DeSantis and the rest of your Republican enablers. #disney #desantis
