Wokeness is now apparently infiltrating everywhere, even in ostensibly red states like Florida.
Sounds good to me
That’s fine. Since Bill Clinton, another southerner, was impeached and tried on the Senate, we will also rename all streets, schools, and towns with the name of Clinton. Even if he was acquitted.
Someone else posted as Dan Tyree. I had that problem when I used to post on the renewed right blog before they stopped taking comments. Oh well. I’ll go on record opposing changing the school names
Another bunch of fools trying to change what happened years ago. Hope that they are happy.
