Employers who participate in FSU’s job fares should demand the names of the FSU students who supported Hamas and protested against Israel. If the employers aren’t given the names, they should nevertheless keep this protest in mind when they interview FSU students. Unless your company is anti-semitic or anti-western civilization, you should avoid hiring these students.
Gaza is part of Israel. That is why Hamas blocks their evacuation. The will be using these citizens as human shields.
I think the most shocking news is there are student organizations on FSU campus supporting HAMAS. In Tallahassee? NOW i think we need to know where Andrew Gillum stashed those ‘Syrian Refugees”? were they ever VETTED? We dunno. Tll the next terrorist attack happens…
Governor, you are doing a great job for us Floridians, don’t listen to David, he’s just a crank.
YES, the Blueprint Intergovernmental Agency does waste Money and so does the Children’s Services Counsel. Blueprint needs to be Rebuilt and the CSC needs to be Torn Down.
Hey Gov., instead of rescue operations for Floridians stranded in Israel why not rescue operations for AMERICANS stranded in Israel? Team up with other States so it saves Money and Rescues more Americans.
Thank you, Governor DeSantis for your moral clarity in words and deeds regarding Israel.
When the Nazi government of Germany sent their military troops into other countries to commit atrocities, it ended with many German citizens being killed, German infrastructure reduced to rubble and four different countries taking control of Germany and determining its future.
Now the Hamas government of Gaza (Hamas has governed Gaza since 2007) has sent its terrorists into Israel to commit atrocities and it is not going to end well for Gaza either.
Publishing the city’s report on the recent million gallon sewage spill, the abhorrent behavior by top tier city staff, including the city manager, in disparaging publicly citizens with disabilities, and the $1.8 million giveaway to SoMo – a special interest – is more important than a city commissioner’s social media post. Hopefully TR is working on these important issues…
