âRon DeSantisâ Secret Twitter Army of Far-Right InfluencersââAccording to five Republicans familiar with the discussions, the governorâs top lieutenants have quietly recruited a network of conservative social media influencers as part of a broader attempt to circumvent the mainstream press and appeal directly to GOP primary voters nationwide.âOne of them is a Newsmax host. Iâm glad Direct TV dropped Newsmax. Hope other companies follow suit.https://t.co/DPwEABpWjp

1/2 PathocracyAndrzej Lobaczewski:ââŚthe transition to pathocracy begins when a disordered individual emerges as a leader figure. While some members of the ruling class are appalled by the brutality and irresponsibility of the leader and his acolytes, his disordered personality appeals to some psychologically normal individuals. They find him charismatic. His impulsiveness is mistaken for decisiveness; his narcissism for confidence; his recklessness for fearlessness.

2/2Soon other people with psychopathic traits emerge and attach themselves to the pathocracy, sensing the opportunity to gain power and influence. At the same time, responsible and moral people gradually leave the government, either resigning or being ruthlessly ejected. In an inevitable process, soon the entire government is filled with people with a pathological lack of empathy and conscience.â

@charlesornstein @ProPublica This is horrific. They ignored the warning of their own doctor. For-profit insurance companies should not exist.

@KimPerales In 2017, the Orlando Sentinel did a thorough investigation of FLâs voucher schools. Some findings:-Teachers didnât need a college degree.-Schools refused to accept disabled students (physical & learning disabilities)-Schools refused to accept gay students.-Schools submitted falsified documents re: fire/health inspection.-Schools didnât have to do student testing thatâs mandatory in public schools.-Students that returned to public schools were lagging behind
