DeSantis Picks New Secretary Of State Married To A Q Believing Capitol Riot Supporter

Ron DeSantis' Secretary of State stepped down recently to run for office, so DeSantis decided to pick a new one that is short on political experience, and overflowing with problems. The main issues with this new SoS are that he is married to a woman that has sent out supportive messages regarding both the capitol rioters and the Q people. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains why this is so problematic.

Ron DeSantis has appointed a new secretary of state here in the state of Florida after his current secretary of state decided abruptly to step down. It's not exactly sure why the secretary of state stepped down, but it's believed that they're actually gonna be running for a new seat in the house of representatives created through Florida's redistrict, Inc. So possibly leaving to go run for office, which would be an actual lower office than the one they were currently holding. But that's neither here nor there they step down. Ron DeSantis got a new one and it's an individual with a ridiculous name, cord bird cord bird, Mr. By happens to be a member of the Florida state house of representatives. And he wasn't chosen because he is got a long history of, you know, political involvement. Mr. Byrd has only been in office since being elected in 2016.

So he's been serving about five years, but Ron DeSantis said you are just kooky enough to be my secretary of state. And of course oversee my election police and all of the new election laws that I have put in place. But there's a bigger problem, Mr. Cord bird. It's the fact that his wife has repeatedly expressed Q beliefs on top of that has also sympathized with the capital riots. Let me read this from the Orlando Sentinel DeSantis recently appointed bird's wife, Esther bird, a former Marine who works in her husband's law office to the state board of education. She defended theories of Q a far right conspiracy cult that says the world is ruled by Satan worshiping molesters. After the couple was seen flying a Q flag on their boat, they both quit Twitter for more than a year after she posted comments, supporting the capital insurrection.

This is what she tweeted ANFA and BLM can burn and loot buildings and violently attack police and citizens. But when Trump supporters peacefully protest, suddenly law and orders, all they can talk about, I can't even listen to these idiots bellyaching about solving our differences without violence. Now, Mr. Cord bird laughed off his wife's wife's comments as quote hyperbole. Oh, don't mind her. She's just embellishing a little bit. Yeah, there was nothing peaceful about the capital riot. You know, the insurrection people died. Officers were beaten by these Trump supporters. Damage was inflicted upon the capital building itself. They were walking around chanting hang Mike Pence and Esther bird thinks, oh, well that's just perfectly fine. These are peaceful people. No, no, this is ridiculous. And of course, cord bird is now the man that is going to be overseeing Florida's elections. And of course, as

I said, the election police that Ron DeSantis recently created. So what can we expect from Mr. Cord by as Florida's new secretary of state? Well, if he shares his wife's beliefs and as I read there, they had the Q flag on their boat. That's very bad cuz these people of course do believe that Democrats are somehow linked to Satan. They believe that they're all out there abusing children. And of course, plenty of them believe that the 2020 election was in fact stolen through some kind of fraud that they still can't seem to prove cuz it doesn't exist.
