We usually preface any mention of David Hogg now with "Harvard graduate," although for a long time in the media (and still) they're calling him a "Parkland survivor." There were lots of Parkland survivors — Hogg wasn't even in the same building as the shooting — but somehow he's become the sole voice of the Parkland community.
We have some "breaking" news for yesterday: Hogg and "faith leaders" from across Florida demanded Gov. Ron DeSantis end his racist (?) comments and policies or resign.
BREAKING: @AMarch4OurLives in partnership with @RevDrBarber and faith leaders from across Florida just delivered this Cease and Desist to Ron DeSantis demanding he end his racist comments and policies or resign. We just delivered this to his office in Tallahassee pic.twitter.com/Ejq5sna8En

Ryan Petty's daughter was not a survivor of the Parkland shooting and he's had enough of Hogg:
How dare you invoke the memory of my daughter in your politics of hate and division. You have accomplished nothing of any significance since 2018. In fact, you’ve made the job of securing schools more difficult because of your vitriolic rhetoric. Sit down and shut up you… https://t.co/KPdmLUTUaa

"Sit down and shut up you buffoon."
He knows. He's just made a career out of it and can't do anything else.

Shouldn't he be out job searching now that he's a graduate?
"Ban guns for racism." The incoherence of attempts at coalition building without invoking class so as not to disturb the people paying him off behind the scenes never ceases to amaze me.

Well sending vibes works every time. Who is this grifter? Didn’t he try to make the best pillow for about a minute?
— Time traveler ☢️ (@tamartin00) September 16, 2023
Yeah, he was dead serious about going head-to-head against Mike Lindell with his "Good Pillow," until he found out it would be an effort.
The part where he speaks about Jesus flipping tables is because of the grifters taking advantage of innocent people, much like the grifter he is.

Hogg trying to make "thoughts and prayers" sound like meaningless tripe among a bunch of Christians. Wait until he hears about what Jesus does in Revelations.
He’s trying so hard to be relevant

Thank you for speaking up against this attention-seeking poser. He's rubbed me the wrong way from the very beginning. He's an opportunist who uses others' suffering to build his empire of grift and fame.

David Hogg wasn't even there. He was at home and rode his bike to the school. You can find him admitting this in an interview with a quick Google search

Rush Limbaugh called him "Camera Hogg". He still is "Camera Hogg".

Hogg’s 15 minutes ended long ago. No he is struggling to be relevant. It’s not working.
— Norman Fagan (@yellowj2467) September 16, 2023
He's an hour and a half into his 15 minutes.
This is doing so much to protect schools…

I was shocked when he suggested that minorities and veterans do not graduate high school. Oh, wait

If DeSantis is as racist as Davey says, he wouldn't have won re-election by 20 points .

Gun control is inherently racist.
For those who don't know a cease a desist LETTER is completely impotent and can be ignored
— Heroes Ahead (@heroesahead) September 16, 2023
If the government sends you a cease and desist ORDER
That's another matter
David is hoping you don't know the difference
All of the hot takes percolating in his brain have made his hairline recede. DeSantis won't respond, but we'd love it if he would.
