Does he really think he has a chance?

Florida Congressman Charlie Crist is said to be considering a run against Governor Ron DeSantis in the 2022 gubernatorial election.

According to several lobbyists that say they have entertained a phone call from Crist regarding a possible run, and one influential member of the U.S. Congress, who corroborates their claims, Crist is willing to leave his cushy job in Washington for his former job in Tallahassee.

Agriculture Commissioner Nikki Fried has been considered the best potential Democratic candidate to face DeSantis, may have just seen her chances of becoming her political party’s gubernatorial nominee go up in smoke.

This is telling us the Florida Democrats are desperate. If they considered Nikki Fried their best chance, it means they know they had none and just wanted to burn an unsuitable candidate in the electoral pyre.

Crist is not well liked by Republicans, in fact, he is pretty much despise for becoming a turncoat. If he does throw the hat in the ring, he will probably be endorsed by all major media outlets as a  savior from the Republicans and “DeathSantis.” But translating that to actual votes when the media keeps failing to properly vet candidates and just go with the orders of Debbie Wasserman Schulz? Never forget they threw themselves fully behind Andrew Gillum for Governor who turned out to be a meth and male prostitute addict. There will be a certain reluctance from the voters to believe what they have to say.

Forbes Magazine names Cyber-Stalker as “Technology Person of the Year.”

TAMPA (WFLA) – Forbes has named former Florida data scientist Rebekah Jones its “Technology Person of the Year.”

Jones, the data curator who was fired for unauthorized public comments about Florida’s coronavirus numbers back in May, created her own dashboard to track coronavirus numbers. She later launched a national dashboard to track school-related cases.

She claims she was fired for being too transparent in regards to COVID-19 numbers and refusing to manipulate data.

“Regardless, she is the latest technologist who stepped up to fill the vacuum left by governments during COVID-19,” the article on Forbes’ website reads.

So they were itching to have a vaginal Snowden and went for somebody with a major in geography who was pretty much a data input person who managed to screw up her job and try to make an ex-boyfriend life miserable at home and at work. 

But cyberstalking is not a crime if one of their club does it.

Free State v Covid detention camp

The people of tiny city of Miami Beach went out to celebrate the new year to the horror of private and governmental Karens.

You probably checked your TV and watched the desolation, but just in case, this was New Years’ celebration in Time Square.

And this was Times Square barely 3 months after the terrorist attacks of 9/11.

Makes you wonder who were the better terrorists: Bin Laden and 9/11 Hijackers or Mayor de Blasio and Governor Cuomo.

In my neighborhood, it was non-stop fireworks for 30 straight minutes and we are talking people probably spent the Wuhan V relief money buying the good stuff with lots of height, bangs and colors. The missus and yours truly sat in the back porch enjoying the show and the smell of freshly bloomed jasmines (we did not know they open at night!). And yes, we did the 12 grapes thing with the 1/4 glass of bubbly for me.

Around 9 pm, I had stepped out to go get mail from the communal mailboxes, and neighbors were out for a stroll or all dressed up getting in their cars to go party somewhere. Nobody was wearing  a mask, nor seemed too interested in social distancing.

The whole thing was almost normal life again.

 

Proving that 2021 did not come with a reset button.

Grafton, Wisconsin police arrested a hospital employee Thursday for destroying over 500 doses of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine.
The employee, a pharmacist, first told his employers at the Aurora Medical Center that he left the vaccine out of the refrigerator by accident, but later admitted that he did so on purpose, according to NBC News.

Hospital Employee Arrested After Intentionally Destroying Doses Of COVID-19 Vaccine

Although despicable, I understand that there are idiots that will do things like this because of many reasons: From political or simply they like the feeling of power they get putting people at risk of death or simply killing them and getting away with it, an unfortunate thing that does happen in the Health Care business. The people that got the vaccines basically got useless shots and let’s hope that they really have no secondary effects and hopefully they can get good doses soon.

What shocked me is comments out there by people congratulating this person and some going as far as calling him a hero of the people. Whether the vaccines work or do not work, it was not his call to decide if people could get or not the vaccine. He removed the choice people made to get the vaccine and that is not heroic by any libertarian stretch of the imagination…or at least it was not with the old guard.

If you think people should shoot up Heroin to their hearts content, but it is OK to sabotage vaccines and let people unknowingly get the shots, you are one seriously messed up individual and need to stay the hell away from other humans.

 

And the year begins still stupid.

This was in desolated Times Square for the dropping of the ball and the arrival of the New Year.

They are kissing….with the frigging masks on.

I was watching one of several livestreaming cams and the TV people tried somewhat successful not to make it look like Escape from New York.  But that place was empty and depressing.

9/11 could not kill the New Year’s in Time Square. Cuomo and de Blasio were much more effective.
