Ron DeSantis tears into Kavanaugh and Roberts for having no 'backbone'

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis lambasted Supreme Court Justices Brett Kavanaugh and John Roberts as having no 'backbone' as they sided with liberal justices to uphold President Biden's vaccine mandate for healthcare workers.

The Supreme Court on Thursday released a highly anticipated decision blocking Biden's mandate ordering businesses with 100 or more employees to require vaccination or weekly testing. The high court however allowed a mandate requiring that facilities that receive federal funding to tell employees to get vaccinated.

'On the nurse mandate and the doctor mandate, Roberts and Kavanaugh joined with the liberals to allow the nurse mandate,' DeSantis said during a guest appearance on the 'Ruthless' podcast on Friday.

'So here's what's going on, think about how insane this is,' he continued. 'Now, in Florida, we protected the nurses, so we have people that are working. But in other states, they fired nurses who were not vaccinated.'

Utter insanity!

I wonder how DeSantis would feel if his wife, currently battling breast cancer, were being cared for by a bunch of unvaxxed nurses?

I read that on a post of some blog, somewhere. I forget which, as the rest of the piece was very forgettable to begin with.
