Friend, in the past two weeks, Florida’s COVID cases have risen 948%. 

Public health officials and even members of DeSantis’s own administration are raising the alarm, calling on DeSantis to say or do anything. 

Let’s try something new. The rest of this email is directed to Governor Freedumb himself, Ron DeSantis. If you want to forward this along to someone in Florida and post this on social media tagging him so he sees it, all the better.

Governor DeSantis:

What have you done lately? Nothing. No calls for increased test production. No assistance for overwhelmed hospitals. No guidelines for constituents on the quickly changing conditions of the virus. Not even an acknowledgement of danger from rising cases. Instead, you call it Democratic “hysteria.”

Even your fellow members of the League of Authoritarian Governors are taking steps that resemble “the right thing.” Greg Abbott is asking for federal assistance with test production. Yes! Greg Abbott! 

Let’s take a second here. Ron! You are falling behind Greg “wall of coffins” Abbott! That’s how bad this is!

Even your fellow MAGA worshippers Brian Kemp, Kim Reynolds, and Doug Ducey have all publicly touted booster shots. Can you imagine how bad things have gotten that they have to do that? Especially after noted scientific authorities Candace Owens and Alex Jones took President Trump to task for… gasp… getting HIS booster?

Your campaign for the White House truly knows no bounds. You’re trying to out-MAGA MAGA and you’re using Floridians as rungs in the latter.

We know how this ends. In two years, on a presidential debate stage somewhere, you’ll be reminded of this very moment. And we know what you’ll do. You brag that no one else had the guts to stand silent while hospitals were overrun and loved ones lost. You’ll proudly deny vaccine effectiveness and brag about suing schools to get more kids killed by COVID. And then you’ll lose to Trump anyway, because let’s face it, you’re a wannabe.

/end open letter/

Lincoln Project supporters: We can’t ignore how dangerous DeSantis’s 2024 aspirations are. We can’t ignore that he’s shamelessly paving his path to the White House with the bodies of Floridians. We’re here to make sure no one else can ignore it either. Are you with us, Friend?
