i think about where florida is, how florida has handled the last couple of years. look at some other state i think back to the founding fathers in the story where there was a debate but took three of the most prominent founding father doctor benjamin rush, thomas jefferson, and benjamin franklin. they were debating what was the world's oldest profession. and doctor rush was a physician. and so he said the world's oldest profession is a physician because eve was cut out of the rib of adam. of course it had to be theic physician. on jefferson now i don't think that's right but he is an architect, he designed market cello that something near and dear and he said the world oldest profession is the architect. after all who do you think created the order out of all the chaos? and franklin said no, you are wrong. the oldest profession is the politician. who do you think created the chaos in the first place? [laughter] and unfortunately, policy hasn't mattered probably more than ever over the last few years. i am pleased to say that on issue after issue florida has led the

so you see people wanting to live in a florida and wanting to travel to florida. the best validation we could have is if you look at some of these other politicians and states walk down the governors and mayors and some of the most hysterical voices on cable news over the last two years always criticizing florida saying we shouldn't have schools and business open and all these things and yet the first chance they get to escape their own policies, they end up in our state. you see them in miami or palm beach and so i think that speaks volumes because people will posture, people will have the political narrative that they will want to send but the question is when you behave what does your behavior say about a good place to be and not and i can tell you within the overall have seen thatwe we have seen a boom in jewish migration into florida. i would say it's the number one destination for american jews who are relocating from within the united states and in particular some of the religious jewish communities are booming like never before. now i think there's a lot o

specifically, in florida.cially when you're thinking about a district like district 13, which we saw on the documentary? >> when you look at the 13th district, the story is less about hispanic voters, it's about hispanic candidate who may be well positioned to win in november because of the way the math was redrawn in florida this year. every state as redrawing its lies in different ways. but the 13 district went from one that had a tilt towards the democrat to one that now is a tilt towards the republicans. so it was redrawn in a way that an 80-year would be beneficial to republican candidate. you add into it the fact that we're in a midterm here, the midterms tend to be a referendum on a sitting president, the white house party almost always as poorly in midterm elections. so district like the 13th, with the change in the lines of the district, making it more republican friendly, and the fact that the democratic president in the mid term makes that a much more favorable combination for the republican candida

that's why they came to florida. and now governor desantis is bringing a brand of authoritarianism to florida that couldn't, maduro, or castro went up like. mr. snyder, should residents in florida be resisting this rising authoritarianism of governor desantis and are we seeing the creeping anticipatory obedience that you talk about towards his repressive policies that you want about? >> so, number one, i think you're a very right to make these comparisons and cubans often older generation can actually remember school policies from the homeland which are similar to the ones that are being implemented in florida now. number two, i think you are also quite right to talk about anticipatory obedience. it's very important not to see changes like this as normal and as -- to allow them to come creeping in so that they become the new normal. and number three, should people be resisting absolutely. i mean the way that democracies are overcome in the 20s century 21st century is generally from within and it's generally by clever

you're a florida parents and has a nonbinary children as well as two other students. how would your children be impacted with the don't say gay law? >> my two youngers are the rising first and third graders. the pay they would impact if they should discuss the makeup of our family or older sibling while in the classroom and someone in the classroom overhears, guess what, so-and-so identifies this way, the parents don't like the makeup of the family they're fully within the rights to sue the school, and not only sue the school, but the school is responsible for paying for that lawsuit and that's money that we desperately know in florida could be better spent on teacher salaries and student funding itself. >> can i zero in with you on that. you've been supportive of your nonbinary child. i want to ask forcing teachers to out lgbtq students to their parents. how do you think that could affect them? >> it's going to be devastated lead to higher rates of depression and definitely higher rates of suicide. you can't out a fragile childlike that without them being ready for i

how it is marketed in florida as free florida, freedom florida, all that stuff.very simple tenet which we all learned in school. justice brandeis is not in the constitution but it's well understood to be a right. it is the idea of being left alone. the droves of people who are moving to florida every day, moving out of places like new york new jersey, connecticut. high state income taxes. it is really the idea being left alone. it's not a new taste of anything. he will continue to talk about lockdowns, mask mandates, those things in florida we are free. but it does come at a great expense. >> what are democrats doing in florida to be able to secure the state again. obama won twice, but then trump one. what are floridian democrats doing to make sure that perhaps this becomes less of, i was gonna say purple but it seems like we are pretty red. >> not enough! shortly, we have three branches. the florida democratic party as a whole, statewide. inside the legislative chamber we have the house and the senate. it is a 40 member senate, we are trying to secure more seats

florida is the same thing.e. >> we are going to be seeing refugees from florida seeking freedom coming to new york. you are welcome here, we would like to have you. look, they are making a stand. >> yeah. >> it's going to be the worst disney ride ever. he has been banning books, fanning black history, banning saying the word gay, banning hormone therapy for transgender teens. that's just cruelty. parents have to agree to it. studies have shown that teens who are transgender, who get this therapy, are 40% less likely to commit suicide. he doesn't care, he knows that. it's cruel. let's pray on those who are vulnerable instead of helping them. and the base, they say -- they laugh -- they don't care about that right. they don't care about people in need. i am worried. i look at florida and ron desantis being groomed to be the next grand wizard of the gop on a national level. we should all be alarmed why what he is trying to do nationally and in florida. >> 100%. >> -- >> yes, very quickly, go ahead. >> you mentione

and then get to a larger take on my home state of florida. do repressive government sensor unpleasant history in their schools? yes or no? >> yes. >> do tyrannical governments muzzle teachers from telling the truth? >> yes. >> the authoritarian leaders regularly denies the free press? >> yes. >> do tyrants criminalize protesters? >> yes. >> do death threats make it harder to vote? >> yes. >> do they abandon facts, science, and reason? >>, yes. >> do autocrats target marginalized communities like gazer communities of color? >> very much so. >> thank you. governor ron desantis, the governor of my home state the, pose every one of these authoritarian tools in florida. but some are law, one of them became law this week, these are the same repressive tactics that thousands of my constituents fled from in venezuela, cuba, and nicaragua that's why they came to florida and now governor desantis is banking and brand of authoritarian that castro would apply. mr. snyder, should residents in florida be resisting this rising authoritarianism of governor d

it is every city in florida right now. politicians do not even talk about this. host: let's take your points. lawrence yun, are you hearing about investors buying properties and letting them sit empty? guest: definitely, the wall street money is flowing in. they are looking at accelerating, rising rents and chasing after that. wall street has much more financial power to purchase above asking price, as the caller mentioned. they are buying single-family homes to turn it into rentals or they are buying apartment buildings and raising rents. the housing shortage. for the long-term, we have to see how to bring about more supply so the rents do not rise so fast and wall street will back away because they are chasing rents long-term. host: how do you do that? how do you lower rates? guest: by increasing supply. it takes time. it is not an overnight situation. the short-term possibility is they have seen a great inflow of new residents coming in from other states, which is the reason for the additional housing shortage. in the short-term term, one of the considerations

in florida, though, florida is the only state not to pre order doses, missing a key deadline.lth released a statement writing, quote, states do not need to be involved in the convoluted vaccine distribution process, especially when the federal government has a track record of developing inconsistent and unsustainable covid-19 policies. here with us cnn chief medical correspondent dr. sanjay gupta. sanjay, what do you think of florida not pre ordering the vaccine? >> well, you know, the situation is florida is a state that has some of the highest transmission in the country, this he have a surgeon general who has issued statements saying children should not get vaccinated and if you look at older age groups they've tracked much lower than the rest of the country in terms of getting people vaccinated. so it's potentially an issue. we do know if you overall look at the sentiment or attitudes towards this vaccine, it goes down in terms of likelihood of taking it as people get younger, as children get younger. so, for example, in the under age 5 group, you know, there's about 18% o

similar to states like florida. that was able to call the 2020 general election on election night, because of pre canvassing. we so that leads to my next point, which is that county and state election officials continue to bear the burden of addressing misinformation and disinformation regarding the integrity of our elections. it is especially disturbing that some disinformation has come from those with a sworn duty to defend our democratic process. the november 2020 election in pennsylvania, like every election since, was free, fair, and secure. allegations of illegal activity in pennsylvania's 2020 election has been repeatedly dismissed in more than two dozen federal court cases and debunked by independent fact-checker's. repeating this falsehood over and over, harms our democracy and voters confidence in our elections process. finally, and most significantly, counties consistently express another need. adequate, consistent funding from the state federal government. in pennsylvania, counties bare virtually all cos

because i think that work for the state of florida work very well in the state of florida, but if we went at a federal legislation, i don't know how you could get a florida and a colorado, and possibly a louisiana, and fit us all into the same box. we in florida have decided, and worked through what works best for our miami-dades, our lafayettes, and everybody in between, so that it fits and we are have those optional pieces to make it for our particular jurisdiction. >> what do you think is a problem with this 20,000 ballots weren't able to be counted on election day. was this the printing error in printing the bar code, and why would that come up in some sort of pretext of the system? >> yes, so that was lancaster county. with one county. it was a vendor issue with this printing the bar code. so, at about 7 am when the county started pre-canvassing, they discovered this error that the scanner was not reading the bar code. so that is why they're hand marking the ballot. if we had ample pre canvas time, like florida, that would've definitely been called earlier. >> right. and on the
