In a third major reshuffling, 2024 hopeful Ron Desantis has replaced his campaign manager Generra Peck amid a lukewarm campaign performance and threats by donors to cut off funding. James Uthmeier, who served as chief of staff in Mr. DeSantis’ governor’s office, will be taking over, according to the announcement Tuesday.

There are some good potential Republican presidential/vp candidates that I see. What I am seeing is the Repbulican party messing with these campaigns and ruining good candidates for the future. Most, now is not their time, but the PTB in the Repubican party don't want Trump and want to kill his campaign any way possible and in the process are ruining the future of the party.

DeSantis, you might read Robert Greene's "Rules of Power". Trump has 60% of the votes, according to all the polls. When you insult Trump, you are not insulting Trump, you are insulting 60% of the voters you want. Instead of learning from Trump, from whom you could learn a lot, you, without the talent or skills, have decided to take him on, but you are not ready for that.

I can't help but feel his last thought every night is asking himself why he didn't just wait until the next election. He's so young and everything was there for his taking. Being America's favorite Governor put him on a trajectory a politician could only dream of. Right now, it seems it has slipped through his fingers. I wish he would halt his campaign, saying it's best for him to go back to his successful governance of Florida and to the voters who trusted his word that he would finish his term. Florida MUST stay Red.

DeSantis was not only underprepared for a run for POTUS. He has abandoned all pretense of working his day job to take care of FLORIDA. Our politics is such a corrupt system that we forget the basics. Ron was re-elected Governor of Florida. He is getting a generous paycheck to do that job. He does not do the job. He collects a paycheck and OTHERS do his job. Governor DeSantis, your problem is not your campaign staff. You need to stop this and go back home and fulfill your responsibilities at the job you already have.

Ya know, I kinda wonder, if De Santis would be better off just being himself rather than what every new controller or big donor wants him to be.

#5 - Unfortunately, DiSantis can't afford to be himself. He needs money to run, and the RINO Republicans funding his campaign know it, so they jerk the strings whenever he doesn't conform to their idea of what a Republican candidate should say. They care not what the base wants or thinks, as long as their candidate conforms to what they consider is "electable," meaning "Democrat lite."

Voting time where I live for local elections. Had a 30ish out drumming up support for his run for a city judgeship. Nice enough guy but only in his 30s. No way does he have the experience professionally or personally to "judge" anyone. I fee the same way about DeSantis.

When J.D. Vance walked into the surgical technology class at Great Oaks Career Campuses, the vocational-technical students were steeling themselves for final exams. Yet it turned out to be perfect timing. Vance was only planning to observe the class, but when he noticed that one of the students was anxious about having her blood drawn by her classmate, the Republican senator of Ohio casually removed his suit jacket and offered to take her place. When no objection from the teacher or students materialized, he sat down, rolled up his sleeves and smiled.(snip)Confounding expectations is turning into something of a habit for Vance.

Capitol Police closed-circuit-television (CCTV) footage obtained by The Epoch Times calls into question the popular narrative that Benjamin James Philips was struck by a police munition before he collapsed from a fatal cardiac event. Mr. Philips, 50, of Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, had organized a busload of area residents to travel to Washington for Mr. Trump’s speech at the Ellipse. He followed the bus in a van.

The Biden administration announced Tuesday that it has designated nearly 1 million acres in Arizona outside the Grand Canyon as a monument, a move that could further America’s reliance on Russia for sourcing uranium, according to the White House. The monument designation will permanently prohibit new mining claims in the covered 917,618 acres, parts of which are known for having rich deposits of uranium, an essential material for generating nuclear energy, according to E&E News. The Biden administration is justifying the designation by pointing to the land’s cultural significance to local Native American tribes in accordance with its wider push for “environmental justice,” according to the White House.
