I think Gene Wilder might have described them best in blazing saddles
The 'common clay' bit?
Not surprising, and lucky for us sane Americans
DeSantis would actually achieve the goals of the GOP, and I'd be terrified if he ran against any Dem in 2024.
Trump is a loon and I don't think he can win in 2024, as all he has is his base, which can't be any bigger than it was in 2020

Extradition doesn't work from there to here so she'll stay free out in the US, technically she commit another crime which was circa 'fugitive from justice', but fair play to the family for pursuing this this far. 3 and a half years to get to here, theres some nasty shatbags both sides of the water that've enabled this fiasco.

You'll find stories like this - at a much lower order of magnitude - if you dig deeply enough in a lot of communities.
I know of at least one county where the entire police department was owned by the local meth dealers for a good long while. Anyone that they considered to have become a problem just disappeared, and the police simply looked the other way.

Nobody should get beaten up delivering fliers. However Rubio is omitting a lot of context on this assault.

Requires an interesting definition of stolen land, but if you think back they were still teaching a relatively unadulterated version of manifest destiny when we all were in school.
The counterargument is "all land (except Antarctica) was stolen at some point, so put a viable solution on the table," but I don't think that's what DeSantis is saying.
