Dad to know that the US no longer qualified as a democracy -- since 2020. It's an anocracy, a step removed from an autocracy. And since that was 2020, we all know it's gotten far, far worse since then.

US swing toward autocracy doesn’t have to be permanent – but swinging back to democracy requires vigilance, stamina and elections

These are your neighbors, your friends that hide monetary problems, the disabled, the disfranchised, the people that through no fault of their own have problems. The Repukes, worshipping a convicted felon, are making the poorest even worse off. It sickens me.

The GOP has no principles.

Charity for who?
DeSantis' wife's charity takes in almost a million dollars, gives out $40k.
Don't worry though, it's not small donors. Seems a lot of the donors are corporations who seem to win a lot of business from Florida after making donations.
