DeSantis vetoes $100 million earmarked to preserve farms, ranches, and wild lands. He doesn’t veto the ban on local water pollution control rules (toxic algae bloom prevention.) Can all now finally lay to rest the “He cares about the environment” myth?

This is one of the most interesting free school lunch papers - when districts implement universal free school lunch, it puts competitive pressure on grocery stores, resulting in lower food prices for *everyone* even if they don't directly benefit from school lunches

I know there are a million people sharing temperature anomaly charts and maps lately, but there's a good reason for that. This is totally bonkers and people who look at this stuff routinely can't believe their eyes. Something very weird is happening. – at Biscayne Park, FL

Last year, a federal judge asked DeSantis’s general counsel to define “woke.”
He answered woke is "the belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them.”
