DeSantis' Mouth Is Writing Checks.....

 ....that he's totally unable to cash.

On Wednesday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “The Story,” 2024 presidential candidate Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) said that he wants to eliminate the Departments of Education, Commerce, and Energy, along with the IRS and if Congress won’t do so, “I’m going to use those agencies to push back against woke ideology and against the leftism that we see creeping into all institutions of American life.”...

The Chamber of Commerce (read:  Americans for Prosperity), along with Koch, is throwing money at DeSantis by the barrelful.  He will not "eliminate" the Department of Commerce, which is joined at the hip with big business--the people who exported drug-manufacturing to China, India, and VietNam, as part of their drive to eliminate blue-collar American jobs.

But that's not all.  Notice how DeSantis phrases it:

 “So, we would do Education, we would do Commerce, we’d do Energy, and we would do IRS. And so, if Congress will work with me on doing that, we’ll be able to reduce the size and scope of government.”

Just in case you didn't get the hint, here's more:

...if Congress won’t go that far, I’m going to use those agencies to push back against woke ideology and against the leftism that we see creeping into all institutions of American life....

You know, I know, and DeSantis knows that unless ALL of the bureaucrats in "those agencies" are summarily fired or 'retired,' he's pissing on your boots and telling you it's rain.

How does he know that?

He watched what happened to Donald J. Trump.  Do you seriously think DeSantis wants that for himself and his own family?

Seriously? 

More:

 Republican Presidential hopeful Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) said Wednesday on Fox News Channel’s “The Story” that his administration would use deadly force on drug dealers at the U.S. border....

Wanna bet?  DeSantis--to his credit--has cojones.  But this is merely bravado.  The people running across the border with drugs in a backpack are NOT cartel bosses, nor "dealers."  They're couriers.  Here's what will happen if DeSantis changes the ROE:  the cartels will send children with backpacks.

Killing children didn't work out well in VietNam, either.
