Ron DeSantis from FLORIDA flew 36 migrants from TEXAS and dumped them in #Sacramento — and my colleague’s (Rabbi Mona Alfi’s) synagogue served them dinner, gave them basic supplies and temporary housing. And this inhumane guy is running for President? I shudder to think. #migration #desantis
I should have noted. This article is from the @jewishsf !
@rabbijill @jewishsf It’s a shame there’s nothing newer than 8 months ago on their timeline. ☹️

@rabbijill Does fedi not support ALT yet? I would’ve thought that to be a thing in from day one
@rabbijill I'm grateful that there are decent people in this world like your fellow Rabbi.
@rabbijill He sent many to New England as well, though he may not have realized that the way he did so gave them legal protections that they otherwise might not have had. Many of the people have assimilated well and now have jobs.

@rabbijill Con DeSantis sadly isn't just satisfied with abusing & betraying his neighbors.
He also feels the need to betray his neighbors' neighbors.

For normal human beings humanity is indivisible & inalienable.

Unqualified folks & demagogues like Con DeSantis shouldn't be allowed to play with humanity for personal gain.

The person who served AT Gitmo, should have been serving IN Gitmo.

@rabbijill What do you not understand? NO LEADERSHIP IN FLORIDA just another Trump wannabe

@Charlee @rabbijill

"What do you not understand?" She's a Jewish rabbi calling out the evil of inhumane policies.

When you try to frame people as "surprised" when they call out evil, and then attempt to shame them for being naive...please note that it's not a good look.

@rabbijill
Human trafficking is a crime. DeSantis doesn’t have immunity as governor. He should be prosecuted. Interfering with their court date is monstrous. Treating people as political props is devoid of empathy. Lying to them in order to get them on the plane is entrapment. DeSantis should be locked up. We no longer live in a nation of laws.
@Woodswalked you are right. This is human trafficking
@rabbijill no worries. Those 36 migrants can now be considered future Democrats. Thanks Ron!

@rabbijill

i know you know but the gop and maga are simply evil.

the voters have been brainwashed so can be forgiven but the grifters who are using them to gain money and power are unforgivable and as we see beyond the law.

it seems as if we are waiting for them to have a successful coup or rigged election and accept whatever handmaids tale they impose on us.

meanwhile the air is full of covid/smoke/rain.

i have resigned myself to the series conclusion of idiocracy and the coal age.

@amiserabilist I don’t think the voters are harmless in this. It doesn’t take much to realize these are human beings. If they are brainwashed to believe otherwise, well…

The pair would later attack what they saw as the Act's malign after effects in the sketch "It's a Soaraway Life", a parody of It's a Wonderful Life evoking a world in which Rupert Murdoch never existed.

Good Jews, terrible "Christians"

@rabbijill inhumane seems mild. how about sadistic?
@rabbijill
He's a hero for trumpites.
@rabbijill He's also losing. I hope the plane used in the "dump" scheme was seized and impounded...
@rabbijill Please remember when referring to this person that the title is, forced rectal feeding enabler war criminal DeSant.....sorry, makes me too ill to finish the name
From now on let’s just refer to him as “human trafficker Ron DeSantis.”
@rabbijill He's not nearly inhumane enough to get the Republican nomination.
@rabbijill cruelty is the point. Cruelty is what his supporters want. Perhaps it makes them feel tough.

@rabbijill

When you make someone move against their will, that's kidnapping. When you lie to victims about where they're going, that's fraud and automatically negates their ability to choose. This should be open & shut kidnapping.

One can't be a #Republican today w/o being a #racist (and yes, I'm including black & Hispanic Republicans.)

We see black Republicans like #UncleThomas who resent every gov action that helped him get where he is, and Tim Scott who thinks his mere existence disproves racism.

But "Mex'cuns" & "Mus'lims" are seen as mortal threats. Blacks are "thugs." "Build a Wall™" & "#AR15's for all" (no license or training required.) Murder someone in cold blood then just declare #StandYourGround.

@rabbijill we must all band together to make sure neither DeSantis or trump ever step one foot in The White House.
