I have serious issues when Pols do this. It is going to cost the State millions to hold a special election to fill the seat. For goodness sake, you were just elected, and it is only a 2 year term.

I don't think an elected member of parliament should have the option to just quit. By the Norwegian Constitution, anyone who is elected is obligated to sit their term. And that's four years, not just the two that this guy was elected for.
Technically it also means that someone can get elected against their will, and they would have no choice but to sit. Realistically it's not going to happen, since the parties draw up their own lists.

Santos is a bit thick thinking he could go on Piers Morgan without getting grilled
What in holy feck?
That's not even an out of context summary. He literally says it's a benefit to society when children die from abuse within the first ten seconds.
Yep. It’s astounding.
Sexual assault and child abuse is considered collateral damage among conservatives
Yep, just the cost of doing business.
But heaven forbid you try and abort a pregnancy.
What’s unbelievable is that 74-19 is the party line…
Absolutely heartless, how are people not ashamed voting in people like this.
So fecking stupid.
Can't wait to see the teachers called to the carpet for pointing out that Thomas Jefferson didn't even live up to the principles he wrote in that document.
Oh, just feck right off…
Is Polack derogative?
So... assuming this is a long-term thing, it's just going to lead to a massive brain-drain in Florida, right?

Perhaps. This, coupled with potentially losing all AP courses, could severely hamper public high school education in FL.
The word ‘Polack’ is derogatory over here.

Pushing a narrative.
Red states would be a third world country without the blue state teet to suckle on.
Yep.
Those red states would be the same kind of mess as certain countries in Central America right now.
On a different front though, some people just don't learn from history at all. Get thrown in a pit full of pigs, Abbott.
I know this is not why they are doing it but foreign ownership of properties is crippling the housing market in the U.S. Especially in places like Hawaii where foreign investors are driving up the prices of housing causing massive numbers of working homeless.
I know that, but targeting specific groups is not the way to go. It's either a one-size-fits-all measure or it's nothing. In Canada, the 2-year Prohibition on the Purchase of Residential Property by Non-Canadians Act entered in effect on January 1st and targets everyone not a Canadian citizen. I have never heard anyone from the political class publicly saying the ban applies to one or more specific groups.
That happens the world over, you trying buying a house in the UK, it's much worse than the US
F'kin hell. Talk about how to cripple your own economy and your own people because Gov. Fat Feck is just too stupid to understand basic math.
I agree 100%.
I have to hope that the cult of personality around Trump won't translate over to Desantis and he ends up flaming out. One can only hope at this point.
Easily explained by the fact that Schlapp isn't Pence's meal ticket to higher office, whereas Trump was.
Don’t forget the homophobia.
