Wait, they enacted laws to scare immigrants and are now concerned that they scared immigrants?
I'll be honest though, if I was in Florida, however legally or not, I'd be considering moving to somewhere slightly less nuts.

Though I think this might just be an example of the exceptionalism that plagues conservative politics - they come from a position of privilege (usually being wealthy and cis white) so are used to exceptions from rules being made.
As such they don't see a problem with making a rule that bans something because they think exceptions will be made for genuine cases, but will refuse to encode those exceptions because they feel that doing so would allow people to take advantage of the loopholes. They then get pretty upset when it turns out that no-one can use the exceptions that don't exist.
So they'll genuinely be all for a law that cracks down on anyone not locally born, but then say "Oh, I didn't think they'd send Pablo our gardener for 30 years home, what bastards, I know he was an illegal immigrant but he wasn't one of *those* immigrants. Who are we going to get to cut out grass for $5/hour now?".

Or without once wondering whether more of 'those' immigrants were actually Pablos all along...

That’s getting ever closer to “we were civilizing them.”

DeSantis calls for state investment manager to consider action against Bud Light’s parent companywww.cnn.com/2023/07/20/politics/desantis-letter-bud-light-company/index.htmlInterested to see how and if these attacks on Corporations like Target, Disney, and InBev turn out. Will it cow them, change where their $$$ flows, or lead to any actual backlash from the Corps themselves in the political sphere?

Obsessed. Where’s the thread on California and NYC black crime, homeless hordes, and people fleeing in droves? Don’t want to talk about the complete failure of every single leftist policy? Start one if you feel you've got any evidence of it.

Viral marketing for the cocaine bear spin-off?
I wonder what effect cocaine has on a fish/shark, if they actually ingest it

Cocaine Bear was brilliant. I'd watch Cocaine Shark too.
More concerning is that presumably if you open a bag of cocaine in water it'll disperse everywhere, so we're talking about cocaine *everything*?
