Gov. Governor The Washington Post and The New York Times published hit pieces in their last weekend of the campaign, but they didn’t leave a single bruise.
Steve Krakauer stated in his Fourth Watch newsletter that they “seem” to show that there isn’t much oppo research available for a possible DeSantis presidential campaign. They were included in his regular feature, “How did this get published?”
Post travel writer Hannah Sampson was first to arrive Friday night with a gotcha piece titled “Ron DeSantis who denounced Disney actually got married there.”
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R), has been on the offensive against the Walt Disney Co. since months. He criticizes the entertainment giant for opposing legislation and signing a law to remove the company from its special taxing area.
DeSantis, who is up for reelection next Wednesday, was a groom walking down the aisle at a Disney wedding before he attacked the company. His wife, Jill Casey Black (an ex-anchor at Jacksonville news station WJXT) got married at Walt Disney World on September 26, 2009.
The Post pointed out that many people get married in Disney locations. Did they believe that DeSantis was so compromised by having a Disney-themed wedding that he couldn’t criticize the company because he was woke? He was supposed to be clairvoyant at his Disney wedding to avoid being married at Disney in order to avoid political problems in 13 year’s.

Frances Robles, a Florida reporter, wrote a Sunday paper story titled “Pranks Parties and Politics: A Future Florida Governor’s Year as a Teacher.” This was a pseudo-expose about DeSantis’ year teaching at a private Georgia school between college and law school. Some students still remember him as “cocky, arrogant.”
The “pranks” were a story about a man who challenged a student to drink as many milk as he could. After that, he threw the milk up.
Adam Moody, a freshman on the team’s baseball team, said, “I think about that, now — I am a teacher now at public school.” “It’s unimaginable that I would put myself in that situation. There is a cruelty to the senses of humor. Mentorship is cruel.”
The “parties” were about how it was inappropriate for a 23 year-old teacher to attend an 18-year old high school graduation party where alcohol was served. However, sources claimed that it was after the seniors had graduated.
The “politics” forgot to mention that DeSantis was against abortion at the time. They race-smear DeSantis because he allegedly taught that the Civil War wasn’t about slavery.
“Mr. “Mr. “Not aggressively, not passively, because i was Black.”
She thought of Mr. DeSantis’s teaching Civil War History in a way that seemed to her to be an attempt to justify slavery.
She said that he tried to play devil’s advocate and claim that the South had a good reason to fight that war, kill other people, rather than owning people — Black people — like he did in history class. He was trying to tell us, “It’s not OK for people to own property, but they had businesses, and properties.”
Is anyone able to record that scandalous lesson? Robles reported that an anonymous student made a satirical clip about DeSantis teaching Civil War, in which a student fell asleep.
Ron DeSantis, a popular Georgia history teacher and coach, was active in Georgia 20 years ago. Some students were shocked by his comments in class about the Civil War, abortion, and his presence at parties for students. https://t.co/qUCZULrF7v
