You have analyzed each action and subsequent reaction succinctly, as usual using the gifts God has given you! I concur completely that it is time to stand up for our beliefs openly as the Marxist liberal elites’ shine tarnishes. Without any violence (and with compassion for those who may be victims), we must return to the standards intended by God and our constitution. We must vote out all who hate our country first, then be diligent in downsizing DC and re-establishing the laws of the land, including removing all illegals. Despite what the libs state, the constitution protects citizens, not aliens who have broken the law on their first step into the US.

Very well said.

Sublime analysis. MAGA, in fact, is being trained by our leaders NOT to turn the other cheek anymore. Not because it is meant to deny Christ or American virtue, but indeed to defend them.

Yup. Out with Conservative Inc. In with America First.

And Truth is a sword, by it's very nature oppositional. The only time we need to deploy and speak Truth, is in a fight against Lies.

Well said Burning Bright! We who have good intentions, our actions will always show in the light of day, but those who don't have our good at heart will always conspire in the dark...

No more playing hide and seek hypocrites...peek-a-boo we all see you...

Gotta love DeSantis, I'm actually surprised when Floridians say they want him to be President because that means they will lose him as their Governor. I would want him to stay in FL. You gotta love Trump, too. It is he that has taken the slings and arrows, setting the example for all these guys who are stepping up to do so. Large attachments!!!! Chosen by God and they def heard the call

Yeah I actually view DeSantis and Lake's roles as being prime examples of the power of truly sovereign states.

Lived in FL from 1975-2014. Part of my heart is still there

Not all of us want him to run for President. We love him right where he is!!

Certainly making the case for a return to sovereign, powerful Statehood.

Yes I hope he stays in FL, maybe in the future, when he's groomed someone for his replacement, but not 2024 for sure. I lived in FL 39 years, part of my heart is there and it needs to stay red and get redder, lol is that a word?

Hear HEAR. Indeed, these People of the Lie need to be mercilessly mocked and ridiculed for their open hypocrisy, their crimes relentlessly dragged into the light of Truth and, in the words of a really great human, we must never, ever, EVER give up.

I have said this before but your writing style is just outstanding.

This article was right on the money. The gall of the MV elitists was beyond comprehension. Such in your face disdain for anyone of such low socioeconomic background as those deposited on the ferry landing was astounding to behold. DeSantis is genius.

Thanks for reading, Mary!

I wish there was some way to turn the tables on all their hypocritical policies and acts by making them take their own medicine, loudly, colorfully and in full view of the public like this tactic did. Thanks for the encouragement we MAGA’s need to stop silently taking their crap.

"In reacting to DeSantis’ provocation, the residents and ideological defenders of Martha’s Vineyard fell into his trap as readily as the most simple field mouse."

As will all [they] all, when the midterm trap is set for them... [they] just don't get it. [They] can't imagine reasoned opposition to their plans. Above all [they] can't comprehend that anyone is smart enough to oppose them, and succeed in said opposition.

A characteristic of mass formation psychosis: things that do not fit into [their] mindset are ignored as if they did not exist at all. All evidence swept away, out with the trash. On full display now...

Absolutely.

I'm reminded of a comment, overheard on the streets of SoHo on the eve of Hillary's 2016 loss: "I can't believe it, EVERYONE I know voted for her..."

This is everything you write and more. I’m sorry I do not delve in To all the repercussions to come because I am too busy giggling to myself every time I hear anything related to Martha’s Vineyard. To me it’s just a big shining beacon of light pointing in the Right direction. Pun intended. 💞

Nicely said. Makes me want to get a Maga hat to wear around!

Truly one of my favorite articles you have authored. One must not read it while drinking pop as the bubbles from laughter will create quite a mess, spray right out the nose. Excellent!!

I don’t particularly desire DeSantis as president, I’d like to see more governors like him, and potentially, Kari Lake. They are truly the ground breakers setting an example for each governor in red states. I truly believe each state is red, so with improved elections we can gradually take back our country. I also appreciate Truethevote’s work with local sheriffs helping them realize their powers, particularly in watching over our elections. Between morally strong governors and watchful Sheriffs, we can begin to remove the dark stench of the Deep State.

I agree. We don't need all of these champions in the executive branch or federal government.

We need them on the sovereign state level.

What seems different to me about the MV event is that it has become a Real-Life Meme, not just a jpeg shared on the page of a conservative social media site. This living, breathing Meme has been shared everywhere, and this time everybody saw it. Hahaha. Great job, Gov. DeSantis and of course, Mr. BB.

Expand full comment

Right. That's why I felt it was worth covering. It's evolved into a legitimate memetic event.

Florida's governor is a bright light in a swamp of despair, to be honest. I've voted for him and will continue to do so; I'm neither Republican nor Democrat! Interesting to note that Ron DeSantis is Catholic, as am I, and I suspect that many of the illegals are too. God forbid that non-white Catholics even set foot on the hallowed, WASP-y shores of Martha's Vineyard. Viva Christo Rey! I enjoy reading your blogs and only recently discovered them on Substack. Thank you.
