Gov. Ron DeSantis signed off on a six-week abortion ban this past Legislative Session. But on Friday, he said what’s good for Florida won’t necessarily fly in the other 49 states.
“The idea that, you know, the Republicans are going to solve the issue federally, I’ve told people not to bet their chips on that,” DeSantis said at the New Hampshire Institute of Politics’ “Politics and Eggs” event.
DeSantis noted that he’d said previously “this is more of a bottom-up issue because I think that what flies in Iowa and Texas is not going to be the same as New England,” and that “you have to have societal agreement to even be in that conversation,” with “a lot of disagreement” prevailing currently.
The comments Friday were the Governor’s latest attempt to triangulate between pushing a restrictive abortion law in the Deep South and the reality that much of the country recoils from that kind of legislation.
“I support pro-life policies. I’ll be a pro-life President. But at the same time, you know, I’ve got to chart the course and be honest with people about, okay, how do you advance the ball like we did in Florida? And the way you do that is really bottom up,” the Governor said during an interview which aired in September on CBS Evening News.
DeSantis has suggested that a national abortion ban wouldn’t fly in various places, arguing that “liberal” New Hampshire, other states in New England, as well as New York and California, wouldn’t accept a national Heartbeat Protection Act. He has taken criticism from anti-abortion groups, including Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America, for his stance.
But despite seeming pragmatism on the issue, the Governor has attacked former President Donald Trump for being outspoken on Florida’s “terrible” legislation.
During a September interview on the Doug Wagner Show, DeSantis derided Trump’s objection to strict abortion bans like Florida’s Heartbeat Protection Act as “very, very deadly” for the anti-abortion movement and a “gift” to reproductive rights advocates.
During an interview with Glenn Beck that also was posted last month, DeSantis warned that Trump’s assertion that Florida’s law is “terrible” would be “weaponized” by proponents of a 2024 constitutional amendment that would limit the Legislature’s ability to pass abortion acts.

The Founding Fathers of America’s understood that men and women get their rights from their Creator, not from the government.
Certain unalienable rights which are enumerated and contained in the Declaration of Independence.
That all men are created EQUAL- no matter how small they are or how old they are or what their “quality of life” is.
And that among these rights given by God are: LIFE, Liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
People are outraged that Hamas decapitated innocent babies. This is exactly what happens in abortion. A fetus is a baby. The word fetus derived from Latin translates “little one.”
Every man and woman should defend innocent defenseless human life. They are made in God’s image and likeness.
Every human person will stand before God at their judgment and be accountable for what they say and do.

“We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.”
“We, the people.” Not someone’s “god.”

How does typing the preamble negate the fact that our RIGHTS come from God our Creator, (not the government and not “we the people”) written by Thomas Jefferson?
The Founding Fathers wrote about the Judeo-Christian God this nation was founded on.
The same God mentioned in the U.S. Pledge of allegiance and the same God written/stamped on every dollar bill and coin you carry of American currency..
That God.
Are you American? Do you understand the Founding Fathers were Christians?
America – “one nation under God.”

They were not. Jefferson – like most of the founders – was a Deist. They founded America to be free FROM religion. “God” was only added to the pledge (and currency) because of radical right-wingers in 1954.

AG Moody is doing everything she and right-wing think tanks, consultants, fundamentalist influrencers, and lobbyists can conceive to halt the referendum going on the ballot. She may succeed because Ron has packed the state courts.

Funny how these so-called Originalists, fringe thinkers who cling to the notion that the Constitution must be interpreted according to the “founding fathers” intent refuse to acknowledge that abortion was common at the Nation’s inception and so the right to choose an abortion should be taken as protected by our Constitution. Rona purports to favor such jurists and yet he is fine with depriving women this fundamental liberty. Rona is an affront to liberty and does not deserve to govern. He panders to the worst anti democratic small minded losers ever! FREEDOM!!!!!!

There is nothing “democratic” about killing children in the womb ; just as plantation owners in the south did not own slaves – which was an atrocious evil-, slaves were individual human beings whose RIGHTS came from God.
Individual persons in America have rights endowed by God, (not another person not the government) including the Right to Life, liberty and the Pursuit of happiness.

You really believe all that religious clap trap? Let’s see how many people have to die this week because of people’s invisible friends. My guess is many, many thousands.

Were you an invisible friend in your mother’s womb even though you couldn’t be seen?
Your mother knew even you were there though she didn’t see you.
Allah is not God. Nor is Buddha, he was a man, as was Mohammad and the fake pagan made up false religions.
Please explain the hundreds of millions of people who celebrate Easter Sunday.

There is NOTHING in Florida from the bottom up. DeSantis, the GOP and that awful AG, Moody do everything possible to unilaterally decide what we Floridians get. They fight to keep it out of the elections.
