DeSantis is a winner, not. More like whiner...

A man appointed to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis' Disney oversight board has a history of making anti-LGBTQ comments, including a claim that tap water could be turning people gay, CNN reported.

Ron Peri, an Orlando-based former pastor and the CEO of a Christian ministry, is one of five people who will oversee the Reedy Creek Improvement District, the government body that has given Disney unique powers in Central Florida for more than half a century, according to CNN.

In a January 2022 Zoom call, Ron Peri asked, “So why are there homosexuals today?"

BTW: There have been homosexuals forever!! Humans, including royals and animals!

Men in drag for centuries on stage, in theaters.

I don’t have Apple TV anymore but I don’t understand being against red flag laws. I think most are for them even those that are all for owning guns. Most I know are for the 10 day waiting period too. I am for tougher red flag laws. But didn’t the SC just say that you can’t prevent someone with DV incidents from buying guns? That was a 🤦‍♀️ moment if there ever was one.

speaker mccarthy you have opened a big can of worms.... All the better for us!!

A federal judge presiding over the criminal case of a Jan. 6 protester is calling for access to surveillance tapes of the 2021 Capitol riot that Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) has announced he's turning over exclusively to Fox News.

The tapes involve relevant information to the case U.S. District Court Judge Rudolph Contreras is hearing regarding defendant William Pope of Topeka, Contreras noted Friday via a video conference in U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, The Kansas City Star reported.

Pope has been hit with eight charges linked to the riot, including felony civil disruption and obstruction of an official proceeding. The defendant, who is acting as his own attorney, has called on the judge to order the release of the videos which he claims show undercover Metropolitan Police officers inciting protesters. It's a conspiracy theory that Donald Trump supporters and Fox News itself have supported in the past.

“I’d like to hear more from the government on what I’m reading in the papers about production of the CCTV [closed circuit television] video to Tucker Carlson and, after a point of exclusivity, to other news outlets,” Contreras said, the Star reported.
