The news article title is:
‘Fascist’ and ‘tyrant’ DeSantis under fire after removing another black elected Democratic state attorney
Yes, but the article puts each in quotes, meaning it’s referring to what sources have said as opposed to making the statement itself - I wanted to use similar language as to how these events get reported on in US media when they happen outside of the country.
Watch a dem do the same and have every maga POS tripping over themselves to call them out.
Dems have to start fighting fire with fire.
They need to actually have an airtight cause to remove them - plus I am not sure if this is a Florida Governor power or if other governors have similar powers. Midwestern Dems are using their political power though, such as the new Wisconsin Democrat-controlled Supreme Court: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5dfKZzOeAJs
Florida: Where Fascism Goes to Flourish.
I feel like im never goin to disney world at this rate
Same for me. I grew up in Florida and lived there for decades. I haven’t been back since 2018 and I don’t know if I ever will, which is a kind of sad feeling tbh.
Absolutely not, not if it’s like this, I’ll just go to the one in California instead
i really want to go to kennedy sc but not with all this crap happening in florida.
I wanted to live in florida. I love the weather. It’s been my dream to move there and now that the kids are grown up and I have the means to move there, I don’t want anything to do with that state in its current form. It really sucks.
Belize has basically the same weather and doesn’t suck horribly.
How the frick is this legal?
When fascists take power, everything they do is legal.
But we still have courts in this country.
Yeah, but it’s a state matter ruled on by state judges. Who do you think appointed the state judges?
Lol the courts that the fascists have been filling with other fascists to say that fascism is legal?
When they’ve been stacked with Federalist Society judges, are they courts, or are they “courts”?
From a CNN article:
The Florida constitution allows a governor to remove an elected official for “malfeasance, misfeasance, neglect of duty, habitual drunkenness, incompetence, or permanent inability to perform official duties.” No previous Florida executive has interpreted that power as broadly as DeSantis. The state Senate can reinstate Worrell, but the chamber is controlled by Republicans closely aligned with DeSantis and have rarely stood in his way.
Warren’s attempts at reinstatement have failed. A federal judge ruled DeSantis had acted unconstitutionally in suspending Warren, writing that there was “not a hint of misconduct by Mr. Warren” in the trial record, but he ultimately dismissed the case saying he did not have the power to intervene on a state matter. The state Supreme Court tossed Warren’s lawsuit in state court earlier this summer.
Monique Worrell was the attorney recently dismissed and Andrew Warren is the one who was dismissed last year.
Things like this always make me wonder if a state could legally turn into a dictatorship.
Could Florida legally change it’s constitution to say “All governing power rests entirely in Ron DeSantis” and dissolve it’s representative bodies? Obviously it would still be beholden to voters for national elections (representatives and senators), but statewide there could be nothing.
Rubber-stamp legislature that will refuse to hear any complaints.
This shouldn’t happen in America. And the guy who did it shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near the White House," said David Rothkopf, a noted foreign policy, national security and political affairs expert and commentator.
I agree that this shouldn’t be happening, but it is. It’s a clear indication of the GOP wanting to operate as a fascist party, and this needs to be taken seriously. I hope that happens.
This fucking asshole Nazi…that’s not how democracy works.
The American right-wing doesn’t care about Democracy. It only supports democratic institutions when the demographics benefit them. While it feels out of place, this sort of behaviour is in my view, more in line with American history than you’d think. It took the Supreme Court multiple times to get the states to follow it whenever it ruled in favour of people, rights, and freedom in the 1800s, but whenever it ruled that slaves weren’t people, those rulings were of course respected.
Florida is the capital of the New Confederacy that liters nobody wants. If you just stop giving money to the crooked catholic shitcunt church and the evangelical shitcunt church then we probably wouldn’t have this problem.
The state has 56 white supremacy groups. What do you think goes on down there?
