While completely unshocking, it certainly is appalling at how far the rumored possible Republican 2024 presidential candidate will go to own the libs. This week DeSantis decided he wants to pull all of the College Board&#8217;s Advanced Placement courses because he didn\u2019t like their response to his ban of AP African American studies in the state.<\/p>\n<p>MoRon started off the week announcing that he may eliminate the courses which is due to his weeks-long feud between the educational board and DeSantis. The governor ignited the battle over the content being taught in the classes that he labeled as \u201cwoke\u201d indoctrination. Last month the Florida Department of Education\u2014 run by DeSantis loyalists \u2014 rejected the AP African American studies course that DeSantis falsely claimed was pushing a \u201cpolitical agenda\u201d which he compared to Marxism.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The College Board finally released a statement labeling his remarks as \u201cslander\u201d and a \u201cPR stunt.\u201d During the conference DeSantis shared that he\u2019s spoken with Florida state House Speaker Paul Renner (R-FL) about having the legislature potentially \u201creevaluate\u201d the courses being offered. He also suggested \u201cother vendors\u201d may offer similar programs to AP, which gives high schoolers a chance to take a college level course and receive college credit for it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis College Board\u2014nobody elected them to anything,\u201d DeSantis said. \u201cThey\u2019re just kind of there and provide this service, and you can utilize those services or not.\u201d I\u2019m not sure about you but I don\u2019t want the guy (who was photographed with his teenage minor female high school students with a bottle in hand at a party) deciding what should be taught in the classroom. It\u2019s giving grooming vibes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em><strong><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #808000;\"><a style=\"color: #808000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.authorhouse.com\/en\/bookstore\/bookdetails\/232300-BOXING-INTERVIEWS-OF-A-LIFETIME\">Click Here to Order Boxing Interviews Of A Lifetime By &#8220;Bad&#8221; Brad Berkwitt<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Nikki Slusher Florida\u2019s Governor Ron DeSantis is waging yet another one of his political war stunts.
