I can think of few things that are more likely to lead to a political awakening of "WTF!!" among the politically disengaged than destroying our National Parks system.
A lot of average people have a lot of memories and a lot of dreams connected with trips to visit these special places.

From thuggish tactics used to maintain control, to crony appointments undermining the rule of law, Trump’s brand of politics mirrors the worst of fascism. As we watch, it’s clear: We can’t ignore these parallels to past dictatorships.

DeSantis is an incompetent hack.
For more than two years, members of the #Florida National Guard have been dispatched to the chronically understaffed Florida prison system. The emergency measure was meant to be on a “temporary short-term basis,” but there's no end in sight. www.wlrn.org/government-p... via @danielrivero.bsky.social
More than 2 years later, National Guard remains stationed in Florida prisons. Will they ever leave?
Three-hundred troops were deployed into the prison system in late 2022 to address chronic staff shortages. Most of them are still there, leading some to question if they will ever leave.

Florida to spend up to $15 million on school material surveillance for DeSantis laws. Um, maybe instead of facilitating the McCarthyism of curriculum, how about PAYING TEACHERS what they are worth FFS? #BecauseFlorida #Floriduh www.tallahassee.com/story/news/p... via @tdonline
