Belittle
On Tuesday, House belittled the rights of transgender people and condemned Democratic Socialism. They even had a bill allowing prayer at high school championship games. It was one of those days in the fun House.
Also, on today’s Sunrise:
— Gov. Ron DeSantis suspends Johnson & Johnson vaccines after the feds call for a pause to investigate a handful of cases where people developed blood clots. But DeSantis still has faith in J&J.
— Nearly half a million Floridians have already received a J&J vaccination … including the Governor.
— Now that the breach at the Piney Point phosphate pond in Manatee County has been sealed, DeSantis says it's time to end this threat to the environment for the last time. The Governor ordered Department of Environmental Protection Secretary Noah Valenstein to close it down and clean it up and take legal action against HRK Holdings — the hedge fund that owns Piney Point.
— The Mayor of Key West travels to Tallahassee to ask the Governor for protection from mega cruise ships. Renowned fishing guide William Benson says most ships are fine, but the big ones can do serious damage.
— And finally, a Florida Woman is accused of threatening to kill the Vice President because she's not black.
