Gov. Ron DeSantis is ordering flags to be flown at half-staff Monday in honor of Memorial Day, via Florida’s 154th Anniversary of Memorial Day proclamation.
“On Memorial Day, we honor the heroes of the United States Military who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. May we never forget the selfless bravery of the men and women who laid down their lives to protect their fellow citizens. Our hearts are heavy with gratitude for their unwavering commitment to protecting this nation’s highest ideal of freedom in the face of grave danger,” the proclamation reads.
The proclamation also calls for a moment of silence throughout Florida at 3 p.m. on Monday to honor those who have died in service.
Florida is home to 1.5 million veterans, according to the proclamation, which adds that the Sunshine State “is recognized as one of the most military and veteran-friendly states in the Nation.”

H, the Memorial Day holiday weekend —— A holiday celebrated in the United States with mattress and appliance sales —— also by closing the banks and Post Office on Monday to inconvenience the rest of the country that is up and running and open for business —— usually it also includes at least two out of three days of rain to keep everybody off the beach and at the stores for the mattress and appliance sales —— Happy (shopping) Holiday !!!!!!!!!!!!

Let me help Ron DeSantis correct his proclamation:
“On Memorial Day, we honor the heroes of the United States Military and school children who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country and the millionaire leadership of the National Rifle Association, gun lobbies. May we never forget the selfless bravery of the men, women and children who laid down their lives to protect the interest of gun lobby and weapons of war. Our hearts are heavy with gratitude for their unwavering commitment to protecting this nation’s highest ideal of freedom in the face of grave danger,” May God bless the GQP and all the red state residents in the FREEDUMB State of Florida.

Peter h and Finn, Rin and Chin.
How despicable, demeaning, disrespectful, and scurrilous can you be. Just shameful, to bend over and politize Memorial Day. No class and scum of earth tactics.
You both are as ugly in your unnecessary partisanship as possible.
