Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis vetoed $35 million in funding to the Tampa Bay Rays sports training and youth tournament facility in Pasco County Thursday after touting their support of a gun control advocacy group. The Major League Baseball (MLB) team posted a statement claiming a $50,000 commitment to Everytown for Gun Safety’s Support Fund, a pro-gun control advocacy group. The team posted the statement two days after the Uvalde shooting inside Robb Elementary School, which left 19 children and 2 fourth-grade teachers dead. “This cannot become normal. We cannot become numb. We cannot look the other way. We all know, if nothing changes, nothing changes,” the statement read.

When will they learn? Go Woke, Go Broke! The Governor made that statement when he tangled with Disney. He is not messing around with those folks who think they can use Taxpayer Money, then turn around and spend it on the Woke Agenda. Not in Florida! Yay for our Governor!

If nothing changes, nothing changes…what a profound statement /s/. However, the changes he is promoting will not save one child or make anyone safer. If federal buildings, state buildings, and airports can be hardened and we fail to harden our schools, we are foolish and unserious about the safety of our children. While I won’t say that democrats are happy about this tragedy because no decent human being could be, they are not going to let this opportunity go to waste. They will exploit each death for political advantage. It is who they are. We have emotional extortion being used as a political strategy when we should be having a serious discussion about how best to assure parents when they send their children to school, they are protected. That will only come when the actual safety of the children comes before a political talking point. The problem we have in this country that far too many do not value life. When you are willing to murder 60,000,000 innocent babies for convenience, life becomes trivial. When you feed children a diet of violent video games unrestricted in any way. When you have a broken home epidemic. When crime is ignored and criminals are released willy nilly. When respect is not taught and God is denied. When we have social media preying on the weak and helpless. When our law enforcement agencies ignore tips and threats that are made known to them. We have created a perfect storm for unimaginable rage and attention seeking glory. Let’s be clear, an inanimate object is not the cause. We have serious culture rot in this country and until it is acknowledged as a problem and dealt with, nothing changes. Our politicians are corrupt, our corporations are bullies, our judiciary is biased, and this administration is illegitimate. Where is the integrity, courage, and respect for law and order? Large swathes of the country are morally bankrupt and proud of it. John Adams said it best, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”

I have a problem when a professional sports organization has plenty of cash for donations, but need taxpayer funding for their construction projects. Actually, I have a problem with any for profit organization needs tax payer funding. Loans, I can live with.

Gun Safety's Support Group notice safety and common sense the key words of the left. Here's a hint, I'm know gun safety and have common sense why should I fund stupid people who don't. DeSantis is right let the left lecture the killers who kill people using anything they wish to kill others with because they are mentally ill or acting out on social media. Tampa Bay needs to reinstate 'Devil' Rays in their team logo. Go woke go broke like the Salvation Army, Disney, Pizza Hut, Coke and others.

The Rays have the money for politics, but want to use taxpayer money for their training facility.

The family of a top advisor to Bill Clinton who admitted Jeffrey Epstein to the White House multiple times during his presidency is pulling out all the stops to keep details of his mysterious death becoming public. They have petitioned a judge to prevent pictures of Mark Middleton’s death scene being released under the Freedom of Information Act. And now the local Arkansas sheriff is interpreting that to mean he can’t talk or release any details of Middleton’s May 7 suicide. ‘The investigation is still open. I can’t say anything more,’ Perry County Sheriff Scott Montgomery told DailyMail.com.

It’s been almost two years since Pfizer and European drug company BioNTech said early data suggests the vaccine could be more than 90% effective. It was big news to kick off the week and it led to an immediate 15% surge in the company’s share price And yet, that same day, Pfizer’s CEO Albert Bourla filed to sell millions of dollars of his company’s stock, coincidentally profiting from this historic announcement. Indeed, Bourla sold 132,508 Pfizer shares at a price of $41.94, raking in $5.6 million. And another Pfizer insider, Executive Vice President Sally Susman, sold 43,662 shares at the same $41.94 price that Bourla sold at, netting more than $1.8 million.

At least three people were killed and 14 people more wounded in a mass shooting in Philadelphia late Saturday night, police said. Gunfire erupted on South Street near 3rd Street in Downtown Philadelphia shortly before midnight, Philadelphia police said, according to WPVI. Two men and a woman were killed, all of whom suffered multiple gunshot wounds, authorities said. Patrolling officers heard numerous gunshots go off and rushed to the area — filled with nightlife venues, bars and restaurants — where they saw “several active shooters” firing into the crowd, Inspector DF Pace told the station. Surveillance footage shows a large crowd gathered right before gunfire took place before midnight last night.

Representative Jim Jordan (R-OH) on Friday blasted President Joe Biden and his administration for having created the record-high inflation and gas prices across the United States. Jordan told Fox Business Network’s “Varney & Company” that he was not as surprised as Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said she was that inflation followed the “crazy” spending, paying people not to work and doing away with energy independence. He suggested it was “intentional” by the White House. “As you know and your viewers know, inflation is the worst tax possible on American families,” Jordan lamented. “So, this is real. I think there are like eight states where it’s already over $5 a gallon.

Russia is being hit hard by Ukraine‘s Javelin anti-tank missiles. What makes this weapon so powerful? The U.S.-made FGM-148 Javelin is one of the premier portable anti-tank missile systems in the world. It’s also an expensive piece of kit, with each missile typically costing more than the targets it eliminates. However, corruption is the main problem that every country has to fight with and the Ukrainians are no different! The expensive javelins have allegedly found their way into the black market on the Internet. Telegram channels have repeatedly reported that military equipment is being sold by the Ukrainians.

Canada moved to make the sale of handguns illegal under a sweeping new bill introduced in Ottawa Monday in the wake of the Uvalde, Texas school shooting. Flanked by government officials and advocates, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced a “national freeze” on firearms in the country as he referenced increasing homicides in Canada and alluded to recent mass shootings south of the border. “It will no longer be possible to buy, sell, transfer or import handguns anywhere in Canada. In other words, we’re capping the market for handguns,” Trudeau said. “People should be free to go to the supermarket, their school or their place of worship without fear.”

Most Americans believe children should not be able to choose their own “preferred pronoun” that does not align with their biological sex, according to new polling. A late May Harvard-Harris poll found that 59 percent of Americans believe children should be called the pronoun that aligns with their biological sex, and 60 percent believe preferred pronouns are an “excessive measure that does more to confuse kids about their sex.” Conversely, 41 percent of Americans believe “kids should be able to pick their pronouns” and 40 percent believe calling children by those pronouns “prevents discrimination.”

On Tuesday morning, a gunman walked into Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, and opened fire in a fourth-grade classroom, killing at least 19 children and two teachers. Salvador Ramos, 18, had already shot and critically wounded his grandmother by the time he arrived at the grade school; ultimately, it was a U.S. Border Patrol agent, and not police officers outside the building, who killed Ramos at the scene. The attack had gone on for about 40 minutes before that. There are many details from the first official reports of the Uvalde shooting that have since changed or been completely debunked.

Pro-abortion terrorists firebombed a pro-life Christian pregnancy center in Buffalo, N.Y. on Tuesday, inflicting significant damage on the building and vandalizing the remains with their organization’s name. Pro-abortion group Jane’s Revenge, which has developed a reputation for resorting to violence, claimed responsibility for the attack, which left glass shattered and much of the interior of the CompassCare office burned and destroyed, CBN News reported. The arsonists left graffiti on a wall that read, “Jane Was Here.” The organization has committed multiple such incidents in the last few months, including one in which it firebombed the headquarters of Wisconsin Family Action (WFA), a pro-life group in Madison, Wis. last month

Walmart is pulling a popular brand of coconut milk off their shelves after reports of forced monkey labor. Walmart became the latest retail giant to drop Chaokoh coconut milk from its catalog. The mega-retailer pulled the beverage due to repeated allegations of monkey slave labor in its production. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) accused the Thai coconut milk supplier of using monkey slave laborers for harvest, which it claims are kept chained and improperly cared for. "The coconut trade uses social monkeys as chained-up coconut-picking machines, depriving them of any opportunity to eat, play, or spend time with their families," said Tracy Reiman, PETA's executive vice president.

More than 7 in 10 New Yorkers fear they will become a victim of violent crime, a distressing new poll has found—as famously progressive cities nationwide face a public safety reckoning under soft-on-crime Democrat lawmakers and prosecutors. About 76% of residents are “very concerned,” or somewhat concerned, they’ll be targeted amid the Big Apple’s ongoing crime wave, according to the Spectrum News NY1/Siena College poll released Tuesday. When asked “How concerned are you that a shooting in which a gunman targets people based on their race, religion or ethnicity will happen in your neighborhood,” almost half (43%) confessed that they are concerned.
