So, yesterday I filed a lawsuit against Ron DeSantis, the governor of Florida, over his executive order that strips from local school districts the authority to make reasonable rules protecting the health and safety of our kids. It’s a little more nuanced but that’s the gist

José Javier Rodríguez lost his Florida Senate seat by just 32 votes in 2020 after a GOP-linked scheme used a paid candidate with his last name to confuse voters. A former Republican senator went to jail for this.
Jose is a Harvard-educated attorney and former U.S. Assistant Secretary of Labor, he’s now running for Florida Attorney General to fight crime and corruption.
Florida voters deserve to know the truth.

Moody voted for Trump's Big Ugly Bill, slashing Medicaid, and voted against stopping Trump's war.
Ashley, you and your Republican colleagues are a big reason Floridians are struggling to make ends meet.
And in two weeks, we're going to vote you out.

Aside from the shocking substance of this story, what's amazing is how it was unearthed by Cole. The short version: The Russians were able to penetrate Jared Kushner's iPhone and extract screenshots and data. Then, a Russian intel official was captured by Dutch intelligence (!) and flipped. The Dutch believed Kushner may have been acting on behalf of Russia, so pursued him as an intel target and were able to get into his phone.
They did not find any evidence of Russian collusion, instead they watched him moving hundreds of millions of dollars from slush funds created by Saudi Arabia and the UAE, one of them housed in Israel's central bank.
Incredible reporting, and if Democrats have any sense, they will pull on these threads and learn a lot more about this money.
Explosive story many years in the making, now out in Vanity Fair by Matthew Cole (who will be on Breaking Points next week, and publishing soon in @DropSiteNews):
Saudi Arabia and the UAE set up multi-billion slush funds for Jared Kushner to use.
Iran-Contra 2 here (except with Iran-Contra, at least the US got some hostages released. Not clear what we got out of this one.)

“Erika Donalds has promised that as governor, her husband will pave the way for an “economy of education” where “profit is not going to be a bad word.”

I like how my iPhone semi-correctly identifies my older rescue dog as a Yorkshire terrier (his birth mother was a chihuahua?) and my younger one as just “dog.”

A grand jury found that the James Uthmeier-led DeSantis administration misappropriated $10 million of Medicaid money in 2024 as part of a sophisticated scheme to fund political activities.
You know how I know that?
Because the First District Court of Appeal disclosed it.

Angie Nixon: “If believing that a mother working two jobs should earn enough to put food on the table is radical, then call me radical. If believing a child with cancer should get treatment they need whether their parents can afford it or not is radical, then call me radical. If believing no family should go bankrupt because somebody got sick is radical, then call me radical. If believing we should spend more money taking care of our children than fighting endless wars is radical, then call me radical”

One of the biggest tactical/political stories of the midterm is the AI industry’s “sword of Damocles” strategy falling apart because it met the buzzsaw of public sentiment
NEWS: @JayCarney told me that his new boss, Democratic megadonor and venture capitalist @RonConway, regrets his previous donation to the AI industry Super PAC Leading the Future.
“Schitt’s Creek” star Dan Levy is calling out Shane Gillis' #SNL monologue.
"I’m speechless that something like that can exist on live national television. And to be perfectly honest, more men need to be standing up in opposition to it because it’s complacency that has created the environment in which women are sexually assaulted and it’s a ‘conversation’ as opposed to a ‘crime.'" variety.com/2026/tv/news/dan…

NEW AD: Kelly Mason knows Byron Donalds personally, she’s worked with him in the school choice movement, and she knows he’s unfit to serve as Governor.
That’s why she’s voting for David Jolly.

Wait a minute Byron….
You have claimed that, “I arrived in the Sunshine State at 17 years old on a Greyhound bus, with a trunk full of clothes and a dream.”
Now you claim that 30 years ago, again at age 17, your mother dropped you off at FAMU.
You have also claimed that you were “Brooklyn-born, Naples raised.”
It appears that you are nothing but a conman who is full of 💩
But, then again, many of us already knew that. Telling the truth just isn’t your thing.
You are definitely no substitute for Gov. DeSantis.
