JVL. you are a gifted and thoughtful writer. You say what I would like to say, only so much better. Why is eveyone afraid to call out the performative "garbage" that is the stock in trade of almost all the R's? The champion among them with this stuff is DeSantis. Sad to say, however, way too many people love that act. Who cares who gets hurt? We all get to own the "liberals." Everything you mentioned that DeSantis has done to great applause and acclaim on the "right" later quietly goes away with no penalty at all to him from anyone. It infuriates me to no end.

The voter arrests especially sent me up the wall. It was despicable and cruel. And yet, all my fellow Evangelical Christians eat that stuff up. It makes me almost physically ill.

There is no longer any shame or any penalty for cruelty, dishonesty and even immorality----hey, it is all good when it is "our guys" doing it!!!! The hypocrisy, cynicism and rationalization is stunning and heartbreaking from my perspective.

Keep up the good and noble work. "The wrong shall fail, the right prevail." Someday at least........
