In a stirring and spot-on campaign email, Florida’s Republican Governor Ron DeSantis declares war on the Far Left calling it a “Radical Vigilante Woke Mob.”
While I’ve seen my share of them over the years and sent out a few myself, campaign fundraising emails are notorious for appealing to the hard-core base of both parties.
So, most of them are taken with a grain of salt by political observers.
However, the email I just received from the DeSantis re-election campaign really hit home. It accurately defined and summarized the aggressive domestic threat posed by the extreme Left to our nation’s very core:
Our country is currently facing a great threat. A new enemy has emerged from the shadows that seeks to destroy and intimidate their way to a transformed state, and country, that you and I would hardly recognize.
This enemy is the radical vigilante woke mob that will steamroll anything and anyone in their way. Their blatant attacks on the American way of life are clear and intensifying: stifling dissent, public shaming, rampant violence, and a perverted version of history.
A group that will, literally, tear down monuments and buildings but — perhaps in an even more sinister way — tear down the American spirit itself. They go after the family unit, parental rights, traditional moral values, the church, and fact-based education.
Over the past few years, we’ve watched horrified as this group has attempted to brainwash our children into thinking we live in an evil, racist, irredeemable country.
We listened to them deny science and data to exert political theater all the while trampling over personal liberties enshrined in the Constitution.
We saw them take to the streets for an entire summer like outlaws burning, looting, and destroying everything in sight while being told they were “mostly peaceful” and “passionate.”
DeSantis omitted the LGBTQ brainwashing of our young children and the collusion of major woke companies like Disney in doing so, but he has been at the forefront of battling both these evils in Florida.
The DeSantis campaign continues, noting something that impacted me directly on the huge social media platform LinkedIn: “We watched Big Tech moguls in Silicon Valley be the arbiters of truth – deciding who gets to speak and who gets silenced through the digital public square.”
And of course, the last piece of the massive leftist effort: “We listened to the legacy media muffle legitimately verifiable news stories that didn’t align with their preferred narrative, only to watch the truth trickle out months later at a more politically expedient time.”
Referring to himself as the “Governor of the Free State of Florida,” DeSantis then goes on to make his pitch for how he will fight this grave threat to America, at least in Florida, with “faith, with reason, and with freedom.”
And of course, he asks for our financial support.
In my view, this email accurately and effectively summarizes the threat we face from the extreme Left in America today. DeSantis is on the front lines of this battle in Florida, but he also seems to be preparing to take the fight nationally as well.

There will be no J/6 indictment for Trump to keep him from running in 2024.
The DNC realizes Ron DeSantis is a far more qualified to be President.
TaaRump was and still is Dangerously Naive!
TaaRump favored Red Flag Laws!
You are the problem in this country!
Donald J Trump 2024 ??????
I’m at a loss to explain WHY Republicans are so quiet EXCEPT for DeSantis & Pres. Trump about what is happening to this country except they’re complicit, especially McConnell, McCarthy, Ronna McDaniel, & their RINO cronies.
Without a major change in Republican leadership to support DeSantis or Pres. Trump or someone else, we get NOWHERE in Congress & we lose valuable time in saving America.
I’m losing hope that we can withstand another 6 months of Democrat assault & take back both Houses. And if we do, then McConnell & McCarthy are going to do what besides enrich & gorge themselves on power while rolling on with the Pelosi/Schumer agenda.
It would seem that Governor Ron DeSantis himself declared war on the citizens of Florida when millions of GMO mosquitoes were released into the Everglades. Some might call that a “Radical Vigilante Woke Mob.”
I absolutely agree with literally everything Mr. Crespo said about Ron DeSantis. The very first time I heard DeSantis speak, I was immediately spellbound. The first remark out of my mouth was that we needed him – or someone like him – to be our next president. And that conviction has only grown stronger. He’s smart, he’s articulate, he’s a great strategist, he’s brave, and…HE’S GOT (UN)COMMON SENSE He’s exactly what we need to heal all of the literal and figurative wounds inflicted on this country by the current administration and its sycophants.
I agree that Gov Desantis doesn’t back down from these demon leftists and this country needs another fighter like him to continue what President Trump started! This country must have a top to bottom overhaul to purge the Satanic left from every inch of our lives. To if necessary, start deporting leftists who have by choice become our enemy and hate the country. If found to be spreading their hate and vile, they must tried, convicted and be harshly dealt with to remove them from normal society. They are the absolute threat to democracy that they attempt to convict conservatives of.
We need to stand fast against DC tyrants.
Hooray Ron
Thank God for people like Governor DeSantis, without them fighting the socialist, Godless left the U.S. would be no more.
Biden and democrats are turning the U.S. into a lawless combination of Venezuela and Sodom and Gomorra.
Trump/DeSantis would be OK, but picture DeSantis in the presidency and Trump as Speaker of the House. How awesome would that be? DeSantis has a clear picture of the future, and Trump would absolutely rattle their bones. The VP has little power or true influence.
A Trump-DeSantis ticket would be ideal for 2024. We need Trump to right the ship of state destroyed by the Socialist/Communist/Racist Democrat Party in just 17 months, led by a senile, crooked, pervert illegitimate “President” Biden and his puppeteer, the anti-American Obama. We must return to America First in all areas of government and stop the queers attempt to radicalize children to accept homosexuality as a normal mode of behavior and to stop the promotion of transsexuality.
