I know people in Florida would hate it but I really wish Desantis would run for President in the next election.

Well when our President is re-elected the second time in 2024. And serves to 2028, ya’ll can have him after he serves his second run which ends in 2026. Until then just know he is there in the wings and when Trumps second term ends all of whatever dirt they find will have been dealt with, and he will have two yrs to plan and implement his strategies for the 2028 run.

NOOOOOOO

I honestly think he does not want to be president just yet. I think he is happy Being the Governor of Florida.
I am sure at some point in his political career he will become president, but not just yet.

A lot of people want our local Sheriff (Grady Judd, look him up on YouTube) to run for Governor, when he does Govenor DeSantis can run for President.

I knew this couldn't be about our worthless Governor in Washington State...

Polis is useless.

Judd needs to be FBI Director or AG under a Pres. DeSantis. Although he'd be a great WH comms director too.

Yep. FJI.

When I saw the thread title, I immediately knew it was Texas or Florida. Ya’ll are lucky.

I think more liberals are fleeing to places like Texas, Colorado, Montana and Nashville. They do flee to Florida - but not in any greater number than conservatives.

That may be true. Texas and Colorado are a lot closer to California than Florida is.

On the way to and from the Keys last night and this morning, I saw three different cars with California plates. I was really hoping we'd stop at the same place so I could welcome them to America.

In central Florida I to have noticed several California plates. They also may just be visiting Disney but that is a long drive.

If their cars have bumper stickers for Biden, Obama, or Newsome, tell them to go back to California.

Gov. DeSantis signs bill outlining new visitation rules at hospitals, long-term care facilities
Governor Ron DeSantis has signed Senate Bill 988, which establishes the No Patient Left Alone Act and makes it easier for loved ones to visit family in hospitals and long-term care facilities.

“You have the right to have your family members with you,” said DeSantis.

That wasn’t the case throughout the pandemic.

“If you take people and they have that connection, and they have loved ones with them, they are more likely to recover,” said DeSantis.

The governor is speaking from experience. His wife, first lady Casey DeSantis, was declared free of breast cancer in March. The governor is now working to ensure Floridians won’t have to experience being alone and isolated when they need love and support.

“The most painful part of the journey was being alone,” said Charlenne Miranda

Miranda was diagnosed with breast cancer in May 2020, just months into the coronavirus pandemic. “I found my own lump and had a hard time getting a mammogram just because elective procedures were down, thankfully I was able to get in,” said Miranda.

She was alone in a fight for her life. “My fear was that I was going to be alone that my husband wouldn’t be allowed in and that’s exactly what happened,” said Miranda.

Patients of hospitals, hospices and long-term care facilities now have the right to be surrounded by loved ones. Physical contact, like hugging, is protected under the new law.

“They would actually police this where you can go in and you said you may be able to go but you can’t give your wife a hug or you can’t give your kid a hug, I mean give me a break,” said DeSantis.

The bill requires facilities to create a new visitation policy within 30 days of the bill being signed that:

Address specified topics including infection control and education protocols and policies for visitors, permissible lengths of visits, and numbers of visitors;
May not be more stringent than what the provider requires for staff;
May not require proof of vaccine or immunization;
Must allow consensual physical contact between the resident, client, or patient and the visitor; and
Must allow in-person visitation under specified circumstances including:
End-of-life situations.
A resident, client, or patient who was living with his or her family before being admitted to the provider’s care is struggling with the change in environment and lack of in-person family support.
The resident, client, or patient is making one or more major medical decisions.
A resident, client, or patient is experiencing emotional distress or grieving the loss of a friend or family member who recently died.
A resident, client, or patient needs cueing or encouragement to eat or drink which was previously provided by a family member or caregiver.
A resident, client, or patient who used to talk and interact with others is seldom speaking.
For hospitals, childbirth, including labor and delivery.
Pediatric patients.
Patients will also be allowed to designate an essential caregiver who can visit for at least two hours longer than the facility’s visitation policy.

The bill calls for a website to provide information about the new visitation rules and allow people to make complaints. That website has not been launched. You can also call 888-775-6005 to make a complaint.

Damn, this guy hasn't missed a step yet.
