Another Cobb County leader is opposing the Mobility SPLOST or M-SPLOST here in Cobb County, Georgia. If you live in Cobb, please share this with your friends and family. We need to get everyone to vote NO on this tax increase.

If you thought FEMA was only on-site to help, think again. I'm sure there are some good people at FEMA (giving them the benefit of the doubt), but residents of North Carolina are telling another story. It seems to be about FEMA's power and control, and what FEMA is and isn't doing is hurting a lot of people. Time to stop this. Who runs FEMA? The Biden-Harris Administration. Think about that when you vote.

The arrogant and misguided former Secretary of State John Kerry shares his brilliant thoughts at the World Economic Forum. He said the First Amendment, which protects free speech "is a major block" to the elites "hammering out of existence" ideas they don't agree with. For several years, I've referred to Kerry and his ilk as "The New Totalitarians," and the name is appropriate. They despise freedom. They despise our Bill of Rights, including free speech, which is supposed to be protected in the First Amendment. And if your thoughts don't agree with theirs, you should be cancelled. WAKE UP AMERICA! How can you let these people govern you? Kerry was appointed by President Biden as Climate Czar. The Biden Administration censored ideas they didn't like on social media. But Biden and Kamala say they support free speech. THEY ARE LYING!

U.S. Congressman Tony Gonzales of Texas is talking about a letter he received from the Acting Director of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

According to Gonzales, "ICE confirmed to me that this is who the Biden-Harris Administration released into our country:
– 13,099 illegals convicted of murder
– 14,301 illegals convicted of burglary
– 15,811 illegals convicted of sexual assault
– 56,533 illegals convicted of drugs
– 62,231 illegals convicted of assault
– 2,521 illegals convicted of kidnapping

"In total, it's over 425,000 convicted criminals roaming our streets. And that doesn’t even include pending charges.

"Meanwhile, Kamala Harris just flew to the border for a photo op in front of the wall she once called a waste, ineffective, and a medieval vanity project."

Wow. This causes one to stop and consider, eh? Maybe we need to make a change in the White House.

Very good analysis of Harris and Trump claims about their competing economic policies from their debate. It's a bit "deep," but an excellent analysis. My takeaway: Congress must do its job to control taxation and spending and modify or replace irresponsible spending policies being promoted by BOTH candidates. Neither candidate really takes a stand on how to control and reduce extravagant spending. From what I've seen, it's more likely that Trump will bring fiscally conservative policy advisors into his administration.

Parsing Economic Fact from Fiction in Presidential Debate In Tuesday's presidential debate between former President Donald Trump and current Vice President Kamala Harris, the candidates made numerous claims and counter

Below is a link to an interview with a friend of mine, Lance Lamberton, and me about the upcoming Mobility SPLOST sales tax increase on the ballot in November in Cobb County, Georgia. The Marietta Daily Journal online will give you at least one free session to view this online, I believe. So click on the link if you have 15 minutes or so to read this. After that first click, you'll probably hit their paywall where you will be asked to subscribe. We spent about 40 minutes with the reporter and had a chance to share a lot of information about why voters in Cobb County should vote NO on this wasteful tax.

Q&A: Cobb Transit Tax Opponents Lay Out Their Case On Nov. 5, Cobb County will vote on approving a 30-year, 1% sales tax to fund public transit projects. Cobb’s sales tax would increase from 6% to 7%.

Interesting opinion piece from a Democrat congressman from Maine. I don't agree with a lot of what he says, but at least he is not a nutcase telling us that the nation will end as we know it if Donald Trump wins in November. He has functioning brain; he is just wrong about certain things, but not all things. There are too many nutcase Dems out there who are emotional and can't stand Trump. Well, I don't like Biden, but I don't have to be emotional or unbalanced about it. People need to re-engage their reason and jettison all emotional partisan stuff--on both sides.

Opinion: Donald Trump is going to win the election and democracy will be just fine “Democrats’ post-debate hand-wringing is based on the idea that a Trump victory is not just a political loss, but a unique threat to our democracy. I reject the premise.”

Last Days of a Revolutionary - Commemorating the American Founding In 1826, Thomas Jefferson was invited by the mayor of Washington, D.C., to celebrate the 50th anniversary of American independence. Although Jefferson’s failing health prevented him from attending, the author of the Declaration replied with his last letter—he died just weeks later on July 4—of...
