🧵 @TheAtlantic sent a reporter from Britain to FL to ogle & mock it, and then gaslight readers into the tired angle that parental rights or medical freedom are “authoritarian.”
The article is dripping with the disdain and contempt that modern media hold for average people who reject the liberal elite’s vision of society (and Florida has overwhelmingly rejected it!)

Recognize the tactics of these “journalists”:
1. Writing as if they have first-hand knowledge (she cites other articles or rumors.)

2. Quoting/interviewing activist partisans to provide "local perspective" or “expert opinion.”

3. And claiming to have reached out to "fact check" (it was not a fact-check, see below.)

🧵 Another false narrative. 🚩
The Florida Dept of State consulted with SOEs in every county impacted by Ian. Charlotte, Lee, and Sarasota counties are the only ones that requested provisions (reported voting facilities damaged or no longer standing.) Image
Supervisors outside of these three counties made no such requests and, in fact, have made statements about their readiness for the election (including Collier, Volusia, Osceola, Manatee, and Orange). This is easily and publicly verifiable.

Mr. Bloomberg, you abandoned the cause of free speech when you allied with the online censorship and disinformation bureau crowd.
Freely exchanging ideas is critical to society, but Wokeism stifles speech by insisting particular viewpoints are adopted.
The Florida legislation you mischaracterize (and fail to quote) prohibits those with agency (employers, teachers) from insisting that certain discriminatory concepts are true or must be adopted by others. Those include:
-members of one race/color/sex/national origin are superior to another
-some people are inherently racist
-moral character is dictated by race
-only certain races are worthy of respect
-certain races deserve discrimination

This is a bogus story. Florida does not fund CRT.

#1 - This is the list that the reporter emailed and demanded answers about. It is clearly unannotated. And contracts are handled by agencies, not the governor's office. The story was published without a response from @EducationFL
#2 - This was the reporter's response to my email.
# 3 - And, as noted from his email, he had already drawn a conclusion for the article, well before he was in touch with us.

Offensive, disgusting, and false commentary from @HillaryClinton about Clarence Thomas.

I'd like to directly rebut this.

After I passed the bar, I stopped CT in a lobby in D.C. and asked him if he would do me the honor of swearing me in as a lawyer (2015).
He invited me to his office at the SC the next day, (after work) and spent hours with me in conversation, earnestly affording me his time and encouraging me. A friend and a law professor accompanied me.
