  1. Also not a peep about the tens of thousands here and in Canada who’s great jobs were killed by Biden when he cancelled the Keystone pipeline. Typical selective indignation of the media.

  2. The media should understand if the USA defaults non of them nor the rest of us will have jobs. If we go bankrupt the dollar fails and the world will descend into another Great Depression. This mess is due to decades of waste, corruption,and NO oversite of insane programs.

  3. We wish you could stay Our Governor DeSantis forever, but if you can't run ,We Make America Great Again would Vote Casey DeSantis 😊

  4. Looks like you’re going to be replaced soon. Time for taller elevator shoes

  5. it’s hard to be sympathetic for ppl with opportunity… now imagine if they were poor and this was their “only” visible opportunity and immediate livelihood.. you see this is an example of irony

  6. Funny, I was thinking about this as well recently…
    GOP, circa 2012: "Obamacare will create government-run panels that will decide if your grandma is no longer economically viable, how dystopian!"
    (never happened btw)
    GOP, circa 2020: "it is unfortunate, but for the sake of the economy, we must sacrifice the elderly, think of the jobs!"

    GOP, circa 2025: "stop caring about job losses, the economy doesn't matter, stop looking at the price of food! Don't you know we're winning the culture war, that's all that matters!"

  7. The 2 things are not the same, at the time of covid the Republicans weren't trying to destroy Democracy!!!!!!

  8. MSM is full of hypocrites and nobody with half a brain would watch any of them at this point… I go even farther — their advertisers are the ones funding them so therefore their advertisers won't get any business from me.

  9. ….yeah, and let’s talk about the (sanctimonious?) shifting standards by GOP Senators for presidential Supreme Court Justice appointments……… I’m hearing ‘vain – glorious’ here………..there are many ways to ‘spend’ one’s life for one’s country and discounting public service to deflect and ease the conscience of ‘fake taxpayers’ shouldn’t trump that spending…….

  10. So we're going to compare jobs lost during a health crisis where over a million American's died to a billionaire just scrapping jobs because his AI says to? Cool. What a disgraceful group of people.

    The point isn't that jobs are being cut. It's that they are being cut at random to further the interests of the billionaire class. Show us justification for why these jobs are waste or redundant and you'd get a lot more respect from people who have more then 2 braincells to rub together.

  11. Yes…all correct. Military resistance to the Commander in Chief, or worse to directly undermine him, can rise to the level of Treason!

  12. Obama ,you republicants amaze me Obama got handed to him the country on the brink of a depression housing bubble blown to hell, banks going insolvent and car companies bankrupt. When he left Trump got a growing economy so don’t tell me about Obama.

  13. Oh god! Still talking about Covid? The disease that took over 2 million lives, mainly the lives of people who refused to take the vaccine, following his advice?
    Every single politician in America took the vaccine, including trump.

  14. The reality is they don't care about either group. They only use groups to promote their Communist Ideology and sow dissention among the Citizens of countries they wish to take power over. Commies have to Communist.

  15. Props to Gov De Santis who freed kids and teens from masks of the Covid theatre.

    And yet the woke army and brash covidians had to comply calling him by all names, instead of thanking him.

  16. Please keep speaking up on this. Everyone who was lost their jobs over the mandate needs compensated and the leadership needs to be held accountable.
