Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis defended his call to ban pro-Palestinian groups from Florida state colleges Sunday, after one of his Republican presidential primary opponents, Vivek Ramaswamy, slammed the demand as “a shameful political ploy.”
“It’s unconstitutional. It’s utter hypocrisy for someone who railed against left-wing cancel culture,” Ramaswamy posted on X (formerly Twitter) Thursday, alleging that it violates students’ right to free speech.
DeSantis held firm Sunday.
“This is not cancel culture. This group, they themselves said, in the aftermath of the Hamas attack, that they don’t just stand in solidarity that they are part of this Hamas movement,” DeSantis said during an interview on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
desantis didn’t say anything when literal nazis were hanging out with desantis flags in front of disney world so really i don’t wanna hear from him on this.
He retweeted a DeSantis promotional video a fan made, which featured Nazi imagery.
FYI – The “fan” was later found to be on staff, unless we’re thinking of different events, which, sadly is always possible!
Black sun in the background and all kinds of memes knit into the video
Well, pretty sure he’d be marching with them if there weren’t any cameras.
