Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis appointed a co-founder of Moms for Liberty, a “parental rights” group that has sought to take over school boards in multiple states, to the Florida Commission on Ethics on Wednesday.
Tina Descovich was named to the nine-member, Tallahassee-based commission, which investigates alleged breaches of public trust by elected and appointed officials, as well as state employees.
The group’s support for school choice and the “fundamental rights of parents” to direct their children’s education has also drawn allies such as the conservative Heritage Foundation.
Moms for Liberty has been labeled an “extremist” organization by the Southern Poverty Law Center for allegedly harassing community members, advancing anti-LGBTQ+ misinformation and fighting to scrub diverse and inclusive material from lesson plans.
Ethics, I don’t think that word means what he thinks it means.
On brand for Republicans to place members of a hate group into political positions. I’m guessing all the dipshit Village geriatrics will cheer and give them more of their retirement funds.
This is the best summary I could come up with:

Along with Descovich, DeSantis also appointed South Florida attorney Luis Fuste to the commission.
Another vacancy on the ethics commission was created in June, when former member Jim Waldman’s term ended.

It’s all bullshit. All of it… All these groups. All the politics. We already have it, we don’t need them.
