Listen up, Florida. We’ve got a "Brooklyn boy" problem in Tallahassee, and it’s time to look under the hood of the Byron Donalds machine before 2026 gets away from us. While everyone’s distracted by the flashy headlines, here is the unfiltered dossier on what’s actually happening in the race for the Governor's mansion. The Brooklyn Pipeline Byron Donalds talks a big game, but he’s a Crown Heights native who didn't find his "Republican values" until 2010. Before that? He was a card-carrying Democrat. Even his education was funded by the very NYC public system he critiques—his public schoolteacher grandmother paid his way through private school while his mother served as a NYC Assistant Principal. Collecting education bucks are the traditional family business. A tradition Byron continues with his wife, for which they're being sued once again. Biography | U.S. Congressman Byron Donalds and His "Staples Store" Super PAC Follow the money, big guy. Byron is sitting on a $22M war chest bankrolled by Silicon Valley moguls like Greg Brockman (OpenAI) and Andreessen Horowitz. They’re funneling cash through "American Mission Florida," a PAC operating out of—get this—a Staples store in Tallahassee. When tech giants buy a candidate this early, they aren't looking for "freedom"—they’re looking for a green light. Sarasota appraiser moving millions from AI moguls to Byron Donalds AI super PAC announces $5M investment boosting Byron Donalds The Hero vs. The Salesman Florida already has a hero in the number two spot: Lieutenant Governor Jay Collins. A Green Beret and Purple Heart recipient who actually embodies the "Florida Blueprint." While Byron is busy taking tech checks and introducing "Biometrics Acts" that smell like Biden-era "pathway" nonsense, Collins is the boots-on-the-ground leader DeSantis tapped to keep the state steady. Jay Collins - 21st Lieutenant Governor of Florida Donalds Introduces The Reform Immigration Through Biometrics Act Old Tech vs. The Green Future The real betrayal? The data center water-guzzlers. Byron’s tech donors are pushing data centers like the one in Arcadia that needs a 1.3-million-gallon water tank. We don't need to drain the aquifers to power the AI genie. We need to rehab Florida’s Brownfield sites using Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), molten salt tech, and closed-loop immersion cooling. Fort Meade AI data center project hits roadblock over water rules AI data centers threaten the real Florida The Bottom Line Florida deserves a Governor who knows the difference between a mission and a marketing campaign. We need real tech, real heroes, and someone who didn't spend half their life voting for the people who ruined New York City. Is Florida for sale to Silicon Valley, or are we going to build something that actually lasts? Stay sharp. 👊☀️ #FloridaPolitics #ByronDonalds #JayCollins #MAGA #SMR #AIDataCenters #Florida2026

@mattvanswol This was a brilliant response Matt.

Out of every disgusting, dishonest piece of filth the mainstream media has produced about Hurricane Helene... This is the worst. 60 Minutes has NEVER done a story on the families FEMA denied. They NEVER mentioned the Amish, who are STILL in the mountains rebuilding homes 550 days later. They NEVER mentioned Jake Jarvis, who has worked 550 days STRAIGHT FOR FREE for Hurricane Helene victims. Instead, they dug up some fringe conspiracy angle to smear the people who actually showed up as White Nationalists. I'm so angry. Let me tell you what 60 Minutes will NEVER report on I was there. I lived it. I am still here. I shared every story I could find. Me, my wife, hundreds of volunteers delivered RVs to mothers holding babies who were sleeping in TOOL SHEDS AND TENTS in the freezing cold, in the mountains. Because their homes had been ripped off the side of a mountain and washed down the French Broad. So tell me 60 Minutes... WHERE WAS THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT? Tell me, WHY did all these volunteers NEED to show up? Any thoughts on that?!!!!! Any investigation AT ALL into the federal or state government's response to Hurricane Helene? Please tell me... if the federal government was doing such a GREAT JOB, why did we need to put victims in RVs... ...A MONTH AFTER THE HURRICANE?!!!!!!! Literally every single victim you talk to in Western North Carolina has a horror story about dealing with FEMA... ...and guess who they will all say actually cam through for them? Neighbors. Church groups. The Amish. The Cajun Navy. Shawn Hendricks. Samaritan's Purse. MercuryOne. The Mission Mules hauling insulin up washed-out roads, ONLY ACCESSIBLE by mules. Greg Biffle burning his own fuel in helicopters. Veterans like Adam Smith who organized helicopter rescues with other veterans BY HIMSELF and then was demonized by the media for it. Volunteers like Jake Jarvis working TO THIS DAY, 550 days later without ANY PAY AT ALL. THOSE ARE THE STORIES FROM HURRICANE HELENE WORTH TELLING. But 60 Minutes won't tell ANY OF THEM. Because the truth makes the federal government the villain and the "deplorables" are actually the heroes in this story and they can NEVER admit that. So instead they smeared the rescuers as white nationalists. This is unforgivable. I was there. I saw it with my own eyes. And I will BE DAMNED if I let CBS rewrite the history of what happened to my mountains.

American was driving a brand new 2026 car The car gave her an alert that said it couldn’t see her eyes. The car then automatically disabled the gas and slowed down enough that it could have caused an accident She had to lean toward so the car’s facial recognition could register her eyes and stop the “kill switch” because the car thought she might be asleep “It was a 6 lane highway and all of a sudden the gas stopped working and I'm pressing on the gas. I can't get the car to go. So the car is dinging, it's making all this noise and I can't figure out what's going on. And I look at the dashboard and in English it says, sit up straight. We can't find your eyes. Why? Why do you need to see my eyes? — when I sat upright, the gas would work once again. And so I pressed the gas, but I was slowing down enough that it was gonna cause a traffic hazard. And the thing is, it knew I wasn't asleep because I was pressing on the gas. So it knew I was awake. It just wanted to see my eyes. So once I set upright and leaned forward, I guess it did facial recognition. And then it says, may I send you these results to a third party” This is horrifying considering the new mandate to have kill switches in every new vehicle by 2027. It looks like it’s already happening but overseas, we’re just next This technology can and will be abused by the government

American foods are cleverly changing their names because they no longer qualify as that legal food - Pringles used to be potato chips, now they’re labeled as “potato crisps” per FDA rules - McDonald’s Shakes are now called “shakes” (not legally milkshakes in some states) - Klondike Bar is no longer a chocolate shell, it’s a Chocolatey shell (not real chocolate) - Dairy Queen: All items are “treats” (no “ice cream” on the menu) - Oreo changed the spelling to “creme” (alternative spelling, not real cream) - Tyson changed spelling to “Wyngz” (It’s a processed chicken labeling trick) - Costco Blueberry Bagels labels as Imitation blueberry bagels (no actual blueberries) - Pearl Milling Company Syrup (formerly Aunt Jemima) Now ‘Original syrup’ not maple syrup. The first ingredients is corn syrup Our food is a science experiment Make America Healthy Again

@zerohedge @DataRepublican LOL you crushed them DR!

🚨 A new scam is taking place in America that allows scammers to get your phone number to get past 2-Factor Authentication Scammers can then get access to your social media accounts, bank accounts and more AT&T Employee “I work at AT&T and over the last couple days, I've witnessed multiple malicious port-outs, which means that a scammer has tricked your cell phone carrier into allowing them to port your number over into a device that they control, which in turn lets them do the two-factor authentication Allowing them into your bank account, your email, your social media. A way to prevent this from happening, and this isn't just for AT&T, this is for any cell phone carrier that you have. Most of them have a port-out protection that you should turn on because this has been happening quite a bit lately. So just letting you know” Again this could happen on any cell phone carrier you have. I researched and found port-out protection is a free feature offered by major U.S. carriers, including T-Mobile, Metro, and others Make sure you do this

If you're a landowner, and your land is being targeted by any entity, whether state/local/energy company, etc...Fill out a detailed report at USDA.Gov/lawfare There is a team looking at every report to determine what can be done. We must protect American farm/ranch land.

.@ByronDonalds admits on camera that he allows big donors to buy access to his office. This after calling donors “investors” and “shareholders.” In politics, that’s called “bribery.” If you want to put Florida into corrupt reverse, Byron is your guy.

Just so we are ALL CLEAR on what happened today... Educators and school administrators single-handedly CANCELLED SCHOOL for 700,000 North Carolina students... ...INCLUDING MY SON!!! To wave signs around in the street instead. The signs vary from: a) F**K ICE!!! b) Defeat Trump's Agenda c) Trump is a N*ZI d) ICE OUT!!! e) Protect trans kids f) Refuse fascism g) Stop bombing schools DO NOT TELL ME THIS WAS ABOUT KIDS. IT NEVER WAS. This was ADULTS using 700,000 children, INCLUDING MINE, as political leverage against a president they don't like. That is despicable. You know better... DO BETTER.

@JohnCornyn LOL this post backfired on you

Debbie Wasserman Schultz is gonna lose her seat in Congress with Florida’s new congressional map Bye Bye 👋

🧵🚨 BREAKING: Miles Taylor: "Anonymous," former DHS Chief of Staff, Google security executive launched a website called GTFO ICE that collects your full name, email, phone number, and zip code to join an anti-ICE "rapid response network." And publishes the user infromation via a public API. 🚨 17,662 people have signed up. The sign-up data is exposed on a public REST API. No true authentication. No rate limiting. Full records: names, emails, phone numbers, zip codes, timestamps. The man who ran the third-largest federal department (250,000 employees, $60 billion budget) who oversaw election security architecture and led counterterrorism operations, then served as Google's Head of National Security Policy... ...can't secure a sign-up form. But he does milk hundreds of thousands of NGO dollars on these credentials. While freeloading off his fame as the person who wrote the infamous NYT article "I Am Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration." And despite me pinging @MilesTaylorUSA about this 12 hours ago, the REST API is still wide open and exposed as of now. Everything has been turned over to FBI, HSI, ICE, and more agencies. As always, patience as I pull together the thread. 👇

Here is a step-by-step guide to 👉REFUND👈 your $ back from Senator Cassidy & Senator Cornyn. By the way, Senator Hagerty (R-TN) endorsed Senator Cornyn & you can request a refund back from him, too. Let me know if this video was helpful. Pass the SAVE America Act!

@JohnCornyn Isn’t it amazing that it’s taken you 24 years to introduce a bill barring birth tourism & you just decided to do it 26 days before the Texas Senate runoff? We aren’t falling for it. Your pro-amnesty & anti-deportation record speaks for itself.

🚨Dear Hakeem Jeffries, You stood in front of the country… and told us that the Supreme Court took away Black people’s right to vote. Let that sink in. That’s not a misunderstanding. That’s not a misquote. That’s not “spin.” That is a statement that does not match reality. No one lost their vote. No one was removed from the process. No ballots were taken. So the question becomes… Why say it? Why take something that is a legal debate about how districts are drawn… and turn it into a claim that people are being stripped of their fundamental rights? Because once you convince people they’re under attack… you don’t have to explain anything else. And that’s where this video starts. We’re going to break this down cleanly… step by step… no emotion, just facts… What the Court actually said… What Jeffries claimed… And why those two things don’t line up. If you sir, care about truth… if you care about being told what’s real and not what’s useful… Stay right here. Let’s get into it. #SilentMajoritySpeaks #AStoneGroove

🚨OH. MY. GOSH!!! The man seen FIRING AN AR-15 GUN INTO A CROWD OF CHILDREN here in Winston Salem, Emir Rodriguez, a VIOLENT REPEAT OFFENDER... ...HAS BEEN LET OUT OF JAIL AGAIN ON JUST A $5,000 BOND!!!! HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?!!!!!!!! WHAT IS GOING ON IN NORTH CAROLINA?!!!!!

🚨 REP. WESLEY HUNT (R-TX) just gave the PERFECT response: Q: There won't be any black Republicans left in the House? HUNT: "It's not relevant." "I'm not here because I'm black." "I am here because I am a qualified representative for Congressional District 38." "The American people choose who they want to choose." "I don't want to get into this game of RACE BAIT all day, every day." "If there's 4? If there's 10? If there's NONE." "I represent a white majority district that President Trump would have won by over 20 points, and I won by over 25 points." "I'm being judged not by the color of my skin, but the content of my character." 🇺🇸🇺🇸 📽️ @PabloReports @WesleyHuntTX

BREAKING After teaching Republicans how to request a REFUND for donations to WinRed, I’m receiving messages from voters across the country: “I donated $100 [b/c I thought Thune was going to listen on the voters]. I just called Win Red and secured my refund. Thank you.” 🦇

BIOENGINEERED LAB-GROWN "MEAT" IS ALREADY IN STORES — AND THEY’RE HIDING IT FROM YOU! Look for these words on the labels: ❌ “CELL CULTURED” ❌ “CELL CULTIVATED” ❌ “CULTURED MEAT” or “CULTIVATED MEAT” If you see ANY of them — DO NOT BUY IT. This is NOT natural meat from a farm animal. This is BIOENGINEERED fake meat grown in giant lab vats from animal cells in the form of fetal bovine serum FBS. Never walked on grass. Never saw sunlight. They’re using soft-sounding words to trick you. Your family deserves REAL food, not lab experiments disguised as dinner. Share this with everyone who buys meat. Read every label. Buy local. Buy from farmers you trust. The food supply is changing fast — stay alert.

We are hiring biostatisticians and data scientists!
