I liked a lot of Trump’s policies, but I just feel he is too much of a lightning rod for the Left...and he will bring the Left to the polls like Hillary brought the Right to the polls...DeSantis seems

That's how their brain works.  They need to be controlled and want to be controlled.. so they think Trump voters are the same.  Trump voters love Trump because of many things, being controlled isn't o

Do you idiots really think DeSaster has control over DISNEY WORLD - a private company?

 

The only control DeSaster has is with the new control board he put in place that maintains roads, etc.

 

The policy change applies to the district, which is largely funded by taxes levied on Disney and which functions something like a county government for the park, overseeing permitting, planning and services including fire protection, road maintenance and emergency medical responses.

 

Disney World Corporation still has DEI, ESG, and so on...

lmao

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

Let’s see.  Since you posted an article behind a paywall bc you know no one will see it……

 

Disney District, Now Under DeSantIs, ENDS ITS DEI PROGRAMS.

 

 

Well……..who controlled that oversight before DeSantis declared Florida is where woke comes to die?

 

Hmmm…..IT WAS DISNEY!  But no more:

 

 

The oversight district, which was created earlierthis year following a row between DeSantis and Disney, is managed by five DeSantis appointees. It replaced a Walt Disney Company-controlled county district, which was dismantled after Disney opposed DeSantis’s anti-LGBTQ+ policies.

 

In a press release the Central Florida tourism oversight district criticized its predecessor for introducing “minority/women business enterprise and disadvantaged business enterprise programs”. The district did not respond to a request for comment.

 

Glenton Gilzean, the district administrator, said:

 

“The so-called diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives were advanced during the tenure of the previous board and they were illegal and simply un-American. Our district will no longer participate in any attempt to divide us by race or advance the notion that we are not created equal.”

That proves nothing. That guy who posted that is way too woke to have credibility. That picture could have been taken 2 hours beforehand or afterwards. And probably was. 

 

That's full on propaganda and if you truly believe any of that crap you see on Twitter then you're an idiot

Let’s go!

 

 

Florida eyes "classical" education agenda
 

Florida could become the first state to offer a conservative-backed "classical" exam in lieu of the SAT and ACT for public college admissions.

 

Why it matters: The state's education measures have been a Republican bellwether nationally— driven by Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), who is seeking the Republican nomination in the 2024 presidential election.

 

The classical education model — not to be confused with "classics" or "classical humanities" — focuses on a return to "core values" and the "centrality of the Western tradition." It's gained recent momentum in Florida charter schools and private Christian schools.

 

The Classical Learning Test launched in 2015 and is used by homeschooling families and co-op groups, according to its website. Over 200 colleges and universities, many religious, accept its scores.

 

The test contains three sections: verbal reasoning, grammar and writing, and quantitative reasoning. 

 

State of play: The Florida Board of Governors is expected to vote on the Classical Learning Test on Aug. 30, Altony Lee III, a spokesperson for the board, told Axios.

 

If adopted by the board, universities could start accepting classical test scores for the 2023-24 admissions cycle, Lee said.

In May, DeSantis signed a bill into law that allowed students to use classical test scores to determine eligibility for a statewide college scholarship program.

 

DeSantis and the Florida Department of Education did not respond to requests for comment.

 

Critics say that the emphasis on Western civilization in classical education centers white Europe and America as most important, per the Tampa Bay Times.

 

So-called "classical education is really a wolf in sheep's clothing," said Julian Vasquez Heilig, a professor of educational leadership, research and technology at Western Michigan University.

 

"Really what it's about is using selective Western thinkers to foment a specific moral ideology," he added.

 

The intrigue: Classical education is largely pioneered by Hillsdale College, a small, Christian, classical liberal arts college in Michigan. This school has helped DeSantis reshape Florida education, the Miami Herald reported.

 

Five schools in Florida are "member schools"of Hillsdale College — more than in any other state, according to its website.

They receive curriculum, consultation and training; others are designated as "candidate member" or "curriculum" schools.

 

Hillsdale influenced the state's decision to reject math textbooks that delved into critical race theory and social emotional learning.

Best run state in the union it isn’t even close.

DeSantis’ ‘anti-woke’ bills are costing Florida millions of dollars in business

In recent weeks, at least a dozen organizations have announced plans to either cancel or relocate their upcoming conferences scheduled to take place in Florida, making a statement by having their thousands of attendees and millions of dollars flow into other states deemed safer and more welcoming.

 

As of July 26, Ritter said that Visit Lauderdale has tallied 10 events and conventions that were canceled by organizations citing recently enacted laws, policies and travel advisories. That amounts to 15,000 lost hotel room nights and an estimated $20 million economic impact, she said.

Considering that Florida is the state with the #1 economy with the second highest GDP and the highest net migration from all other states, wgaf what CNN, the rest of the leftist and eunuch class former righties have to say?

 

Of course they are pissed, they are pissed that they don't get to inject their leftist cultural extremism into corporations and schools.    

 

There has been no righty politician that has delivered on his promise to rip out leftist cultural extremism from these entities than Ron DeSantis.

His issue is still the same...and it's the same issue the other GOP candidates have...is how do you flip the Trump votes? I just don't see it, he has such a stranglehold on a sizable chunk of Republican voters. Most of them will literally admit to you that they won't change their vote no matter what happens.

RON DESANTIS: America’s economy is decimated. As president, I have a plan to rebuild it.

 

Our declaration of economic independence must focus our agenda on rebuilding the American dream for our middle class. We will diversify and expand our economy by rewarding hard work and empowering our citizens to control their own destinies.

 

We want to be a country that makes things, where a family can raise children on a single income, and where young people can develop the skills and values necessary to build a decent life and contribute to their communities.

 

We will declare our economic independence from the failed elites who orchestrated American decline and from the never-ending federal spending that has inflated prices and plunged our nation to the brink of insolvency.

 

The goal of our declaration of economic independence is simple: We win. They lose.

Who runs the “high schools?”  


 

 

Lol lol ok I’ll spare everyone wasting their time looking at this tweet

 

 

“…..some Florida school districts are shying away from Shakespeare, along with other classic and popular materials. They say they’re attempting to comply with new state law restricting books with and instruction about sexual content.”

 

 

 

 

Some schools.  Lol k.  


 

Another fyi - almost every school in America (thanks Ds for dumbing down education) doesn’t require all students to read a full book. 
 

All they assign are excerpts.  
 

Same with note taking.  They just give you note sheets or guides.
