Schadenfreude: Judge Decides to Crack Down on DeSantis

Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) is a lousy politician and an even worse human being. For folks who write a political blog, like we do, that's two strikes and you're out. We don't need to hide the fact that we hold him in very low esteem.

Froom the judge's order:

Plaintiff's argument is correct. While Defendant Ladapo refuses to even agree with this simple fact, Plaintiff's political advertisement is political speech, speech at the core of the First Amendment. And just this year, the United States Supreme Court reaffirmed the bedrock principle that the government cannot do indirectly what it cannot do directly by threatening third parties with legal sanctions to censor speech it disfavors. The government cannot excuse its indirect censorship of political speech simply by declaring the disfavored speech is "false."
