Gov. Ron DeSantis loses court battle against COVID safety demands: report

Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) appears to have lost his ongoing efforts to break through any and all COVID-19 precautions. Axios reported Saturday that a federal appeals court ruled the Center for Disease Control could impose whatever health and safety restrictions it wants on reopening cruise ships.

"DeSantis sued the CDC in April and last month U.S. District Judge Steven Merryday granted a temporary injunction against the CDC framework for cruise ships," Axios said, citing the Miami Herald.

"By a 2-1 vote, the three-judge panel on the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals noted that the federal government had demonstrated 'requisite showing' to obtain the stay order allowing the CDC regulations to remain in place, but did not elaborate further," the report explained.

Norwegian Cruise Lines sued DeSantis last week over his ban on COVID travel passports, saying that they will move their business out of Florida if DeSantis continues to impose restrictions on their business.

I'm not too excited yet because he will keep it in the courts since he is a bully and doesn't like to lose. He thinks he is the king and I so hope he loses in the next election. I had just read an article where a spokesman for him was bragging about their success in handling covid. Have you seen our numbers lately?😭😭😭😭drumpf twin
