Massive container ship EVER GIVEN stuck in the most awkward way possible.
Ongoing for hours. Every tug Egypt could spare appear to be trying to pull it free.

"Is there a traffic jam?" Answer
After all day trying to refloat the mega container ship 'Ever Given', in the Suez Canal, there is a steady log jam of ships waiting in the Mediterranean & Red Sea and in the canal itself pic.twitter.com/aGFKieoWqE

Whatever you thought about the governors' stunt... it turns out it was
DeSantis sent a videographer because he was trying to make an audition tape for the presidency.
Well, we've gotten a pretty good look.
Let's make sure this never
VIDEO: Just spoke with @USRepKeating who represents Martha's Vineyard - he says island officials told him Gov DeSantis sent a videographer with the migrants to capture footage of them on MV

Update: DeSantis escalated.
It's not going to
The best candidate Tr**p could do was encourage people to beat up protesters & say outrageous things.

Pales in comparison to DeSantis, who has a whole state to push around.
If he emerges as a likely 2024 candidate, he'll surely escalate.
When a politician performs cruelty.
They are showing you their nature.
Believe them.
Don't let supposedly sober voices tell you different.
Grab a pen.
Write your feelings about DeSantis on a post-it.
Stick it somewhere visible.
Democracy will thank you in 2024.
