B-Man Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Steve Schmidt has gone off the deep end making some outrageous and ‘totally not hyperbolic’ claims about Desantis. If you do not know who Steve Schmidt is, he was a founder of The Lincoln Project and we think that says pretty much everything you need to know. OK, well first of all. We do not think he knows or understands the definition of hyperbole. We are pretty sure if there was a textbook to be written about hyperbole and its use on Twitter that tweet should be the example they use. Quote hy·per·bo·le /hīˈpərbəlē/ noun Definition: exaggerated statements or claims not meant to be taken literally. The next guy is always "worse than the last guy." Always. https://twitchy.com/artistangie-313138/2022/09/19/steve-schmidt-doesnt-understand-hyperbole-and-gets-destroyed-by-6000-foot-tall-fire-squids-and-lol/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly read most all of what the Liberal posters here post. and as my replies show, I read multiple left-leaning media sites also. As you point out, the majority of Liberals on PPP are woefully unprepared for any actual debate, so it is kind of grating when questions are asked of Tibs, Billstime, Frenkle, 716 and the like when you KNOW that there will not be any kind of substantial response. It will be repetitive simplistic nonsense. What is the point. . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Man Posted September 19, 2022 Share Posted September 19, 2022 Meanwhile back at the thread...... We’re closing in on a week of coverage of Gov. Ron DeSantis flying approximately 50 Venezuelan migrants from Florida to Martha’s Vineyard, where they were fed, clothed, and sheltered for less than 48 hours before the National Guard stuck them on buses headed for a military base. A lot of Democrats thought they owned DeSantis by showing just how well they treat brown people … for two days. Now Ross Barkan writes in The Atlantic that this is the moment for the Democrats to turn the tables on DeSantis. “Republicans’ cruel immigration tactics present an opportunity for blue cities,” he writes. Blue cities like New York, Chicago, and Washington, D.C., where they’ve declared a humanitarian crisis over a couple of busloads of migrants from Arizona and Texas? Um … those political leaders did say, “Send them here.” They designated themselves sanctuary cities. And now they’re repeatedly asking the National Guard for assistance in dealing with the humanitarian crisis posed by 4,000 migrants and claiming their infrastructure is strained to the limit. All in one week: - Mayor Bowser called for public emergency - Mayor Lightfoot deported illegal aliens to a republican suburb - Martha’s Vineyard deported illegal aliens within 48 hours LET’S BE CLEAR. The tolerant left really don’t like illegal aliens in their neighborhood. https://twitchy.com/brettt-3136/2022/09/19/the-atlantic-explains-how-democrats-can-turn-the-tables-on-gov-ron-desantis-over-immigration/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a single one of them was here illegally. "If someone is here and they are illegally here and are undocumented, they have rights to not be victims. They have rights to not be lured to another state with fake promises. With that being said, these people were here legally. They were documented. They had the right to walk around the streets free and not be transported across the country for it to be a media event. That's a tragedy. That is at worst some type of crime. We're going to look at what extent of the law we can hold people accountable." Im here legally as well DeSantis, please give me some free flights. Free handouts for legal people, what does he think he is a Democrat? Edited September 20, 2022 by Backintheday544 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were you ok when Biden flew and bussed migrants into the US from our southern border? Well Jim that’s a false equivalent. 1. I’m not sure Biden is allowed to fly or drive anymore due to his extremely old age; 2. Any bussing operations have been to sanctuary cities that know the people are coming 3. The program is part of Federal law and authorized under Federal law 4. None of these people have come out and said they were lied to about getting on the bus. Im actually fine with a Federal bussing policy to sanctuary cities as long as the people being busses provide full consent. Here, 1. DeSantis used FL funds to fly TX people to MV. This is not what those funds were appropriated for 2. The people moved were asylum seekers who were legally in the US. The funds used were not meant for people legally in US. So another misappropriation of funds. 3. It’s been well documented now that these legal residents were 1) lied to about where they were going and 2) provided false pretense such as promises of jobs and expedited reviews that were never there. 4 MV is not a sanctuary city and had no advance notice they were coming.

The legal issues with DeSantis: - Sending people from TX using FL money apportioned for illegal immigrants in FL - this is a misappropriation of funds - Sending asylum seekers who were legally in the US when the apportioned funds were to be used on people illegally in the US - again a misappropriation of funds - Sending the asylum seekers to MV under false pretense. The asylum seekers have said they were told they’d have jobs, housing and expedited review of their claims. None of that was true. They were told they’d go to NY and Boston and that was not true.
