"So many military staffers and guards passed through Guantanamo during my 14-year detention that I remember only the kindest, and the cruellest – the ones who seemed to take joy in our misery.

In 2021, just as my memoir – Don't Forget Us Here, Lost and Found at Guantanamo – was about to be published, I was on Twitter and saw a photo of a handsome man in a white navy uniform. It was Ron DeSantis, the governor of Florida. I do not remember what the post was about – probably something about him clashing with President Joe Biden over Covid policies. But I remembered his face. It was a face I could never forget. I had seen that face for the first time in Guantanamo, in 2006 – one of the camp's darkest years when the authorities started violently breaking hunger strikes and three of my brothers were found dead in their cages."

Read the rest here.

Sounds believable, but ... I bet he's better than pedo joe.

[I] just read it. Basically, DeSantis is condemned [for] enjoying watching the torture of inmates at Guantanamo while in the Navy.
