Gun safety activist Maxwell Alejandro Frost has expanded his lead in safely blue #FL10. 76% of estimated vote in, he's beating state Sen. Randolph Bracy 34-25; ex-Reps. Alan Grayson and Corrine Brown at 16 and 10.
#FL11 is TIGHT. 71% of estimated vote in, Webster leads Loomer 47.8-47.7, margin of 95 VOTES.
Two of #FL11's four counties, Orange and Polk, aren't reporting anything. If Loomer's strength is confided to The Villages, gives Webster breathing room. If not ...

(1/x) So @RepMattGaetz is running around now claiming he's a dad, apparently to the teenage brother of his ex-girlfriend.

As a white dad via adoption-at-birth to a black son, I have some thoughts on how shockingly dangerous it is to let any child near @mattgaetz.

#MattGaetz
(2/x) I'm reading that #MattGaetz has backpedaled on the whole adoption tip, as it's been proven that Gaetz never actually adopted #Nestor.

Still, I'm going to use this framing because, during the adoption process, potential adoptive parents go through background checks.
(3/x) These background checks include financial reviews, to ensure you can afford to provide a kid with the necessities, and criminal background checks, to make sure the kid will be safe. You also meet w/ social workers to get judged as safe, stable, not freakin' creepy, etc.
