I wish Texas A&M and the Boy Scouts would get rid of it as well - one step at a time.

That's how you "drain the swamp". Instead we're running the other guy.

This is the way.

Even if you want to argue that there is some marginal benefit to these positions (I don't, but for the sake of argument let's say there is), in a time of increasing austerity and major threats to the higher education model, it makes no sense for the state to be spending money on these jobs.

Elections are when people find out what politicians stand for, and politicians find out what people will fall for.

Will they rehire in new positions though? That's how schools in Texas did it after Abbott and the lege abolished DEI here.
Trump will fix it.

This is fantastic, but that it had to happen in the first place is a sad statement on the condition of American Universities. The rules should be - treat everyone with respect, hire the best, most qualified people, pay them a fair wage, and get to work.

Having said that, I hope every legislature/governor in every red state does exactly the same thing. If the universities won't do it themselves then force it on them. We have to quit agreeing and cowtowing to every stupid whim of the leftists.

Unfortunately, if you read the rest of the release, UF is reallocating resources to hire them back and encouraging them to reapply.

It might be required that when there are employment cuts at state agencies, including universities, employees affected by said cuts get first dibs at open positions elsewhere. Doesn't mean they will actually be hired again.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill

Trump started draining the swamp by firing Comey. (nevermind that he hired another swamp POS to replace him). All hell broke loose and republicans signed off on a special council made up of rabid dems to investigate him.

DC is not the same as Florida and they wouldn't just sit back and let DeSantis fire the deep state there either.

DeSantis would never give them the opportunities to undermine him like Trump did every damn day. It's hard to contain the deep state when you're constantly providing them with avenues to come after you.

While I like DeSantis and what he's doing in Florida, you're delusional if you think he could have done something like this at a Federal and got treated any differently than Trump did. At the election after DeSantis lost, you'd be saying the same thing about him (essentially) that you're saying about Trump, maybe without the geezer part.

It just blows my mind that people on here don't understand this. Trump's not perfect; no one said he is. But how exactly are you going to spend 4-7 years defending yourself against all the crap he's had to put up with -- and then be judged against everything you've said and done in that time (not to mention the lies you had to defend against in the first place)?

Answer that question, assure us (with evidence) that DeSantis will come through clean on that, and maybe I'll consider your comment here as something of value. Otherwise, it is totally absurd.

Trump fired Comey too late, and replaced him with someone even worse.

Barnes, your TDS is laughable (as is the faux Israel knowledge).

What is totally absurd is looking past all of the success RD has had, while having lawfare attempted on him too. Big difference is that he's not a moron, like Trump, and has a vocabulary to be able to explain positions with an overall level of extreme competence AND he has leadership skills and hires competent people...all unlike Trump.

Fair enough. You did an excellent job of pointing out Trumps baggage/drama and just a few of the many distractions he brings. Your text in bold.

Sure DeSantis would have been attacked big time. BUT Tell me have you ever heard the term attack or target profile. Trump is nothing but a target and feeds into it. All of that drama is a huge distraction. The last thing we need if we are going to get this leftest cancer the F* out.

We don't need an old worn out target and distraction. We need serious leadership in a very troubled time. 80 Y/O's dont bring that. New conservative blood now. That is hardly absurd.
