Didn't Florida Pass An Anti-Protest Law?

MAGA comes out to defend Washed Up 45 after his home was searched by the FBI.

Can't have it both ways!

It seems like the MAGA world has gone crazy. Since the FBI executed a search of Mar-A-Lago, Washed Up 45's Florida home, protesters came to West Palm Beach to support him.

Republicans have called for an investigation into the FBI.

They have decided to drive up conspiracies about Hunter Biden and Hillary Clinton. Now they are rehashing Benghazi, Fast and Furious and Uranium One. 

A federal judge had signed off a warrant that allowed the FBI execute a search of the property for classified documents that the former president failed to return to the National Archives. 

Washed Up 45 became the first former president to have his residence searched by the FBI.

Now he is ramping up speculation he may run for president again.

He also appeared at his deposition in New York where he pled the fifth when asked questions about how he obtained his earnings. He decided to call the New York Attorney General a racist because she is investigating his companies. Mind you, she is Letitia James, a prominent Black woman in law enforcement.

So Florida's governor and many Republicans are outraged over the search of the property. They all reacted on social media and written statements. It has even drove people to the former president's home to protest the injustice against him.

But ain't they in violation of Florida's Protesting Law?

In response to Black Lives Matter and antifa, Gov. Karen DeSantis signed a controversial law that prohibits picketing and protesting outside of a person’s place of residence.

 “Sending unruly mobs to private residences, like we have seen with the angry crowds in front of the homes of Supreme Court justices, is inappropriate,” said DeSantis. “This bill will provide protection to those living in residential communities and I am glad to sign it into law.”

The law is now in effect. I strongly doubt law enforcement officers will warn protesters. 

Most of the people protesting are white. 

Republicans were upset over protests at Supreme Court justices homes.

It only applies to Black protesters who surround the home of a cop who shot an unarmed person of color, a prosecutor who refuses to charge them, a MAGA celebrity who said something racist, a Republican politician who creates a culture war or writes a culture war based bill or probably DeSantis home. 

The law says that picketing or protesting outside of a dwelling could result in arrests for residential picketing only if the person does not peaceably disperse after the warning. 

Residential picketing will be punishable as a second-degree misdemeanor.

The law is too broad and it will be challenged in courts. Since this is a First Amendment right to protest, many Americans who felt the need to protest Republicans is no longer allowed in DeSantis' Florida.

The hypocrisy of Republicans.

By the way, folks are threatening a federal judge. That is illegal. The judge who approved the warrant is named Bruce Reinhart. He is getting U.S. Marshal protection now that Washed Up 45 and the far right has now decided to make him a target.

The social media trolls have posted his information online. The same folks who were upset over trolls posting the Supreme Court justices home addresses after Roe v. Wade was overturned have no problem posting addresses of judges who don't think like MAGA.

The noise is loud and dangerous. I said ignore the noise and vote.

Vote to save democracy.
