Welcome to another edition of FT Now! It’s been another eventful week of news, so let’s get right to business! First, Gov. Ron DeSantis is joining a chorus of Republican governors and vowing action to stop critical race theory in Florida’s public schools. Next up, New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham is facing multiple serious scandals. Finally, Americans are fleeing blue states due to overbearing and ineffective liberal policies.
DeSantis Vows To Destroy Critical Race Theory In Florida Schools: ‘Offensive To The Taxpayer’
What Happened:
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is the latest Republican governor to take a stand against critical race theory, the divisive curriculum being spread by progressives across the country.
Why You Should Care:
Critical race theory pushes the idea that America is inherently racist, sexist, and rooted in evil. However, Gov. DeSantis assured Floridians that he will “play whack-a-mole all over the state” to stop it wherever it may pop up - and he’s not alone.
What Happens Next:
Other governors, such as Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt, and Idaho Gov. Brad Little, have also taken immediate actions to stop CRT in their states. More are expected to follow, with the Texas legislature expected to pass a bill in the coming weeks.

Scandals Mount For New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham
What Happened:
New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham has to deal with multiple serious scandals that threaten her approval in the state.
Why You Should Care:
The Democrat governor is facing the consequences of Public Records Act violations, COVID lockdown hypocrisy, taxpayer-funded groceries, and hush-money payments for allegations of sexual misconduct.
What Happens Next:
While Gov. Grisham looks to avoid these scandals at all costs - they aren’t going away anytime soon. State Republicans and local news organizations have called out the governor for her controversies, and hopefully substantive action happens soon.

Democrat Policies Have Created a Blue-State Exodus
What Happened:
Radical Democrat policies are causing Americans to flee blue states in droves - and millions are going to red states.
Why You Should Care:
Strict job-killing lockdown measures, high taxes, and rising crime plague the residents of blue states, and it’s no wonder they want to get away. Even before the pandemic, Michigan, New Jersey, New York, California, and Illinois lost a combined four million residents from 2010 to 2019.
What Happens Next:
COVID has accelerated the blue state exodus, and it will likely continue as blue states struggle to get back to normal, continue taxing at insane rates, and do little to curb violent crime.

Did you know?
In 2021, there are TWO governor’s races: New Jersey and Virginia. Both governor’s mansions are currently held by Democrats, but this November, voters have a chance to turn them red. If you’re interested in becoming part of the growing movement to take back New Jersey and Virginia, consider joining the relevant Facebook groups and spread the word!
