Sen. Rick Scott Warns Socialists, Commies, and Big Govt Lovers to Stay Out of Florida


In a video he posted to Twitter, Sen Rick Scott (R-Fla) issued a travel warning for those coming to Florida, proclaiming, "If you're socialist, communist, or somebody that believes in big government (read liberal), I would think twice, think twice - if you're thinking about taking a vacation or moving to Florida!”  Scott then added, “We're all about freedom here in Florida.  And if your politics don't align, you're not free to come here.”

Wait!  The guy who was fined $1.7 billion for Medicare fraud and who took the 5th a full 75 times said what?  So, its Sen. Scott who gets to decide who can come to Florida, eh?  I didn’t realize Rick Scott owned Florida.  And discouraging potential tourists from visiting Florida?  What a genius strategy!  I mean, its not like Florida gets a lot of revenue from tourism, or anything like that.  I tell ya, these MAGA politicians are nobody’s dummies.  My question is, how do Florida Republican politicians plan on identifying which people are the communists, socialists, and big government advocates?  I mean, it isn’t like they all wear silly red hats like some folks we know.

Of course, this will also mean Scandinavians, Germans, Canadians, and most everyone from Western Europe will not be permitted to visit Florida - as those folks all live in socialist democracies.  What’s behind all this nonsense, you may ask?  Well, the only thing I can figure out is MAGA Republicans must have felt that Gov. Ron DeSantis didn't go far enough to fuck up Florida's tourist business when he launched his attack on Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse, so Sen. Scott decided to issue a direct threat to the tourists themselves.  You know, that villainous “Marxists for Mickey” crowd.

Not surprisingly, Republicans will be the first to tell you that there is nothing improper about an elected official threatening millions of people not to come to a specific part of the country because their political beliefs may differ from that of the MAGA Republican Party base.  Besides, Nazis, Christian Nationalists, fascists, antisemites, homophobes, and white supremacists are still welcome, so it isn’t like they’re not being inclusive.  So, what’s the problem?  Why if one didn’t know better, one might think Florida Republicans are trying to build a “wall” to keep ideas they don’t like out.  This isn’t your daddy’s Republican Party children.

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War

Trump Lawyer Schoen Threatens America With Civil War:  In a fiery speech, arguing that impeachment would disenfranchise Donald Trump’s supporters, defense lawyer David Schoen is being harshly criticized for his thinly veiled threat - warning that impeaching the former president could very well result in even more violence from Donald Trump’s easily enraged base. So, if I understand Schoen’s argument correctly, it sounds as if he’s implying that “if you bring Trump to trial, then that angry, violent mob who attacked the Capitol, wanting to hang Vice President Pence and kill various members of Congress, might get really, really mad again - and there will be reprisals.”   You know, we’re talking stuff like ”Nice country you have here - be a damn shame if something were to happen to it!”  In other words, Schoen’s trying to incite violence, in defense of a man who’s facing trial - over inciting violence.  They don’t teach you that in law school.   Now, is it jus...

Scientists Monitoring Near-Earth Asteroid 99942 Apophis

Scientists Monitoring Near-Earth Asteroid 99942 Apophis:   Scientists meeting this week at the 2019 Planetary Defense Conference, say they’re monitoring the 99942 Apophis asteroid which will be coming within 20,000 miles (33,000 kilometers) of the Earth’s surface in just 10 years.  The thing is, by the year 2029, Trump will likely be settling into his 4th term - so if an asteroid suddenly threatens to destroy the Earth, my guess is that after 16 years of Trump, no one will really much care. https://www.johnnyrobishcomedy.com  Oldest Human Footprint Found in the Americas Confirmed in Chile:   Researchers say a 15,600-year old footprint discovered by a student in southern Chile is believed to be the oldest human footprint ever found in the Americas.  Oddly enough, scientists say the footprint appears to be that of someone wearing size 12 Bruno Magli shoes, but because it’s from well over 15K years ago - they’re rather doubtful it has any connection to t...

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo

Trump Returns to Do White House Coronavirus Briefings Solo:  Three months after he abandoned the daily virus briefings and attempted to turn the country’s attention to what he described as the “great American comeback,” President Trump took the lectern in the White House briefing room alone on Tuesday, free to say whatever he wanted without any distractions from the usual bunch “sciencey nerds” behind him. And, in a rare moment of candor, Trump reluctantly admitted that the spread of the coronavirus will likely get worse before it gets better, and that people should probably wear masks.  Well said Mr President!  The fact is, most of us are already rather optimistic things will begin to get better - sometime after November 3rd. Ironically, now that Trump is finally admitting the virus is spreading fast and that people should wear masks, you’d think most of those armed militia thugs, whom Trump egged on to to out and “liberate” those Democratic run states from t...
