Roger Stone Threatens To Wreck Ron DeSantis’ Reelection If He Refuses To Audit Florida’s Voter Rolls

Florida Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis is already facing a very uncertain bid for reelection next year in the Sunshine State, having completely mishandled the response to COVID and taking the public stance that he will oppose any local efforts to combat the deadly virus, which has resulted in sending nearly 60,000 Floridians to their graves.

But it now appears things are about to get much worse for DeSantis, as he’s facing a challenge on the extreme right-wing from longtime Donald Trump friend and protégé Roger Stone, who is demanding DeSantis run a full audit of Florida’s voter registration rolls.

Stone sent this warning to DeSantis via Twitter:

He followed up with this one:

Here’s the interesting thing about Stone’s threat to DeSantis: Both of them are acolytes of the failed, one-term, twice-impeached former president, so it’s hard to know if Donald put Stone up to this in order to take DeSantis down a notch and keep him from being a viable GOP presidential candidate in 2024. Because if DeSantis can’t get a second term in Florida, he’s all but guaranteed to be a dud in a run for the White House.

Of course, as unhinged and duplicitous of a bottom-feeding insect as Stone is and always has been (he used to work as a dirty trickster for Richard Nixon), he may have cooked up his run on the Libertarian ticket just so he can remain relevant and try to raise a few bucks. Word is that money is tight for Stone and his legal bills are believed to be enormous.

Whether Stone actually runs or not isn’t exactly the point. Just the threat proves that DeSantis is potentially weak on his right flank, which he thought he had safely covered.

For now, Stone is just testing the waters to see if he can get what he wants. But if he does choose to run, Ron DeSantis could well be sending out his résumé after the votes are counted next November.

WATCH: Melania Looks Absolutely Miserable As She Stands Next To Donnie At The World Series

On Saturday evening, failed, one-term former President Donald Trump made an appearance at Game Four of the 2021 World Series in Atlanta, but his wife, Melania, looked like she’d have just as soon been anywhere else.

At one point during the game, Donald and Melania joined the crowd in doing the controversial “tomahawk chop” cheer to rally the Atlanta Braves, who went on to win the game:

But another video of the Trumps shows a much different scene, as Melania appears to be smiling and then looks away as if she’s disgusted and wants to get the hell away from the con man standing next to her:

Does she look happy to you? Twitter had some thoughts:

Donald Trump WTF?!

Trump Gets Busted For Lying About Being ‘Invited’ To Attend The World Series By The MLB Commissioner

Granted, it’s hard to believe, but the always honest (HA!) failed, one-term, twice-impeached Donald Trump has been caught in yet another lie, and this one is about his attendance at Game Four of the World Series, which is being played in Atlanta this evening with the Atlanta Braves and Houston Astros battling to be 2021 World Series champions.

In a statement from his Save America PAC on Saturday, here’s what Trump had to say about why he’ll be at the baseball game:

“Looking forward to being at the World Series in Atlanta tonight. Thank you to the Commissioner of Baseball Rob Manfred, and Randy Levine of the great New York Yankees, for the invite. Melania and I are looking forward to a wonderful evening watching two great teams!”

Turns out that’s complete bullshit, according to SNY, a regional sports network located in New York which did a little research and found Trump wasn’t invited by Manfred or Levine.

SNY reports:

This ran counter to a Wednesday report in USA Today, in which Braves CEO Terry McGuirk said, “He called MLB and wanted to come to the game. We were very surprised. Of course, we said yes.”

Levine was not available for comment, but two officials directly involved in the process said that McGuirk’s comments were accurate, and that neither Manfred nor Levine had reached out to extend an invitation.

According to those officials, Trump last week reached out to Manfred through an intermediary to say he would like to attend a game. 

Manfred then called Levine, because of common ties to the intermediary. That was the extent of Levine’s involvement. 

“[Levine] has nothing to do with who attends a World Series in Atlanta,” said one of the officials.

And this isn’t the first time Trump has used Levine’s name to suggest he’d been invited somewhere he hadn’t:

In July 2020, shortly before director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Dr. Anthony Fauci threw out the first pitch at the MLB opener, a Yankees/Nationals game in Washington D.C., Trump said he would be doing the same in the Bronx.

“Randy Levine is a great friend of mine from the Yankees,” Trump said at the White House. “And he asked me to throw out the first pitch, and I think I’m doing that on Aug. 15 at Yankee Stadium.”

The Yankees had a general policy that if any high-ranking public official wanted to throw out a first pitch, it would likely happen — but the team had never scheduled the event that Trump claimed. Trump later said that he wouldn’t have been able to make it to Yankees Stadium on Aug. 15, after all.

Lies, lies, and more lies. It’s the only thing you can count on from Donald Trump. After all, this is the same con man who continues to insist he won the state of Georgia and the 2020 presidential election.

Donald Trump is full of bullshit and that’s exactly what he belches out every single time he speaks. You can’t believe a damn thing he says.

Joy Reid’s Nightmare Prediction About Donald Trump Will Absolutely Terrify You

On her show Friday evening, MSNBC host Joy Reid made a Halloween prediction that is certain to terrify anyone who cares about the future of this country and the Constitutional republic failed, one-term former President Donald Trump and his GOP minions have tried to destroy.

Wearing a witch costume, Reid warned that a return of Trump in the 2024 election would be an absolute nightmare, and she even laid out how fears things might happen in the next race for the White House:

“Just picture it, an even older, weirder Donald Trump buoyed by Republicans who game the voting system.”

Reid went on to explain that Trump would actually lose the election, and that’s when the things would take a turn for the worse. GOP governors and legislatures would ignore the will of the voters and install Donald as president:

“So Trump returns but he’s unconstrained because there are no more American democratic elections. With his own little puppet, puppet Kevin McCarthy as speaker, whom he can dangle and fling to his delight, and his his cruel wicked henchman grim reaper Mitch McConnell back in charge in the Senate … there is no stopping him.”

McConnell, Reid continued, would have refused to let President Biden fill any Supreme Court vacancies, but once Trump is back in power, the GOP would install another right-wing justice and cement a 7-2 majority:

“If you think it’s racist and fascist out here now, just wait until all of Trump’s monsters are unleashed. Picture the Proud Boys and the Three Percenters and the Boogaloo Boys with real power, Trump’s own personal militia, racist sheriffs and police free to commit untold violence against anyone they please, all in the name of Trump. The land ravaged, plowed for every drop for oil and coal until it all just burns.”

Anyone who wants to make sure this country doesn’t descend into authoritarianism and fascism needs to make sure and vote in every election at every level: Local, state, and national.

To borrow a phrase from Benjamin Franklin: We have a republic, but only if we can keep it.

Jealous Trump Angrily Attacks Twitter As The Stock Price Of His Social Media Startup Tanks

Poor little Donald Trump. He so much wants to be back on Twitter (he’s still suing to get his account reinstated), but he also wants to try and make a go of his so-called “response” to Twitter, which he’s calling Truth Social.

But based on the stock performance of the company raising money for Truth Social, many are wondering if Trump’s social media platform will even launch.

At the close of the stock market Friday, Digital World Acquisition Corp. (DWAC) had fallen to $67.75, off its high a week ago of $94.20. It fell nearly 7% just today, which doesn’t exactly bode well for the future, with CNBC noting earlier this week:

Short-seller Iceberg Research unveiled a bearish position on the DWAC on Monday, saying that investors face uncertainties in this blank-check deal as Trump could become a dominant shareholder after the merger.

“Now that initial excitement has passed, we see only risks for investors in near future. Based on Trump’s track record, at current price, renegotiation is likely to keep more of the merged company for him,” Iceberg Research said in a tweet.

All of this bad news must have been on Trump’s mind as he made a phone-in appearance on “The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show,” where he attacked Twitter, remarking:

“If you look at Twitter, it’s become very boring. They’ve lost tremendous amount of audience. It’s become boring as can be because conservatives are off it.

“They got me out. I had hundreds… Between Facebook and Instagram and Twitter, way over a hundred million people, way, way over, closer to the next number. And, frankly, our voice has been taken away so I wanted to do something important, something that couldn’t be taken down, and I think it’s gonna be terrific.”

When one of the hosts mentioned that Trump would be attending Game 5 of the 2021 World Series in Atlanta on Saturday evening (after calling for a boycott of Major League Baseball earlier this year), the failed, one-term former president couldn’t resist reiterating his Big Lie about how he won the 2020 election even though he lost in a landslide:

“Tremendous, tremendous, terrible things happened in terms of that election, and the election fraud, frankly. But we did tremendously in Georgia, and I think we’ll get a great reception.”

Eric Dolan · RADKFYI 10 – 29 – 2021 12.37.01

Yep, the delusions and petty jealousies are still there. Donald is banned from Twitter and Facebook, so he thinks creating his own social media site is the answer. But looking at the stock, there’s a better than even chance the entire enterprise will go bust before the New Year.

Loser Trump continues to lose. It’s the only thing he’s ever been any good at.
