  1. Federal prosecutors are dropping corruption charges against Andrew Gillum — the 2018 Democratic gubernatorial nominee who narrowly lost to Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis — after a jury acquitted him on one count and hung on remaining charges that he pocketed campaign cash and illegally receiving gifts, including theater tickets to "Hamilton." Prosecutors initially said they would retry Gillum after a jury acquitted him on one count of lying to the FBI but failed to reach a verdict on 17 counts of wire fraud and a wire fraud conspiracy count at the conclusion of his May 4 trial. However, on Monday, the prosecution filed a one-paragraph motion that asked a judge to dismiss the remaining charges against Gillum and his co-defendant, Sharon Lettman-HIcks. Gillum's defense attorneys said now their client can "resume his life and public service." Gillum’s troubles expanded beyond the alleged charges as, in 2020, Gillum was found in a Miami Beach hotel room with someone who had apparently overdosed on drugs. Police said Gillum was too inebriated to talk about what happened when they arrived on the scene. While no one was ever charged with any crime involving the incident, Gillum withdrew from public life for months. He also sought treatment for alcohol abuse and depression. Prosecutors had claimed Gillum committed fraud because he was struggling financially after quitting his $120,000-a-year job with the progressive People for the American Way group when he decided to run for governor. Lettman-Hicks, a longtime political adviser to Gillum and former executive with the group, was accused of conspiring with Gillum to divert the contributions to his personal accounts. Jurors also deadlocked on those counts. The jury found Gillum not guilty of charges that he lied about his interactions with undercover FBI agents posing as developers who paid for a 2016 trip he and his brother took to New York, which included a ticket to the hit Broadway show "Hamilton." Gillum contended his brother provided the ticket. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/prosecutors-drop-all-charges-andrew-gillum-former-democratic-mayor-lost-ron-desantis Gillum was found in a Miami Beach hotel room with someone who had apparently overdosed on drugs. If I remember correctly, the MSM went out of it's way to call the dead person a person not a male person Photos released Wednesday by Miami Beach police show what a luxury hotel room looked like when officers found former Florida gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum drunk and with two other men. Officers were called to the luxury Miami Beach hotel for a suspected overdose involving one of the other men on March 13 and reported that Gillum was too inebriated to speak. The newly released photos show stained and rumpled bed sheets, a box for a party light disco ball, spilled white pills on the carpet and a vial of a drug often used for erectile dysfunction, but reveal no further light on what Gillum was doing there.
  2. REPUBLICANS Published May 16, 2023 7:30am EDT DeSantis endorses Kelly Craft in pivotal Kentucky governor's race, setting stage for epic clash with Trump Trump endorsed Kentucky Attorney General Daniel Cameron early in the race https://www.foxnews.com/politics/desantis-endorses-kelly-craft-pivotal-kentucky-governors-race-setting-stage-epic-clash-trump Republicans just can't learn a thing can they? One step ahead, 20 steps back. The RNC has to put it's foot down now. Tell DeSantis to stay in Florida away from the DC swamp for now. The swamp will ruin his future and everything he has done so far. He can help the whole country from right here in Florida. He is young enough so he can run for pres later on after he has done his job here in Florida. He can build a record that will beat every Liberal there is if he stays the course here in Florida. He is pounding California and New York into the ground and the world sees it. This is a classic battle between good and evil and he is winning. We don't need any name calling childish games between him and Trump. That is Trumps forte and it works great against the useless Liberals. Let him do what he does best against the real enemy. You got handed another chance Republicans, so take advantage of it. Let Trump kick the Liberals azz for 4 more years then let DeSantis come in and bat cleanup. YOU CAN'T LOSE if you actually do a little thinking.
  3. Right smack in your face people, right smack in your face.. The IRS has removed the "entire investigative team" from its multi-year tax fraud investigation of Hunter Biden, and a whistleblower who raised concerns about the handling of the case is claiming the move was "clearly retaliatory," according to a Monday report. Per The New York Post, the whistleblower’s attorneys told Congress that the removal was on the order of the Department of Justice. "Today the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Criminal Supervisory Special Agent we represent was informed that he and his entire investigative team are being removed from the ongoing and sensitive investigation of the high-profile, controversial subject about which our client sought to make whistleblower disclosures to Congress. "He was informed the change was at the request of the Department of Justice," attorneys Mark Lytle and Tristan Leavitt wrote. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/irs-removes-entire-investigative-team-hunter-biden-probe-whistleblower-claims-retaliation-report
  4. And there it is. Hell, I believe Florida is giving away panels using everyones tax dollars. It's a shameless racket that is hurting many people's wallet. Remember ST Ronnie's famous words. "I am from the government and I am here to help". Our local power company runs commercials claiming solar is a sustainable energy. I guess no one told these fools that the sun goes down in Florida just like everywhere else. This political farce can be exposed just by using common sense and logic. You don't need a fancy college degree. Just ask a few questions that they won't answer. Just were and how do they come up with these numbers such as the earth will warm ,2 degrees in the next 20 years. Name the so called experts, who is paying them, how much are they getting paid, and who is supplying their paycheck. Who is profiting from selling carbon points that allows certain people to pollute all they want. If the earth actually warms by .2 degrees in the next 20 years, SO WHAT IS THE BIG DEAL? How was the Great Lakes formed? About 20,000 years ago, the climate warmed and the ice sheet retreated. Water from the melting glacier filled the basins , forming the Great Lakes. Approximately 3,000 years ago, the Great Lakes reached their present shapes and sizes. Name the amount of coal mines. steel mills and SUV'S they were on this earth 20,000 years ago. What actually caused the glaciers to melt?????? Plus many more unanswered questions. I bet you all can come up with a few of your own if you actually started questioning the voted for governments lies Your government should be handing out free KY Jelly and preparation H to the tax payers instead of free solar panels, rebates and subsidies.
  5. And the ragin' Liberal stupidity rages on Be proud Liberals, be proud The Biden administration released a sweeping plan to curb fossil fuel-fired power plant emissions Thursday, sparking concerns from experts about future U.S. power grid reliability. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) plan — which would curb nationwide power sector emissions by about 617 million metric tons through 2042 — forces electric power providers to slash pollution by about 90% over the next two decades. To achieve such aggressive emissions reductions, power plants must adopt carbon capture, a nascent and costly technology, or shut down. "Electricity in America is becoming increasingly intermittent, and it's because we are transitioning rapidly towards unreliable and untested wind and solar," Daniel Turner, the founder and executive director of Power The Future, told Fox News Digital in an interview. "It's evident the Biden administration has no comprehensive energy plan," he continued. "They want everyone to have EVs, they want electric hot water heaters, they want electric stoves. But you cannot be pushing everyone towards electrification as the only source of power, while at the same time weakening the production of that power."
  6. Never ever trust your voted for or appointed government. NEVER
  7. Just for laughs Was it Herm or Toni?
  8. Does government entities actually have rules they are required to follow???? Be still, my fingers, be still.
  9. I got 10% I'll give him. It will be a surprise.
  10. I wish I had a dollar for every word of truth I posted on Godubois about the useless masks and how they couldn't stop the virus in any way. Liberal after Liberal argued with no facts and proved nothing day in and day out. Not one could prove that masks stopped the virus, not one. They just repeated lies from government paid so called experts. The liberals are all gone and fedup is still here. 100% totally correct on what I said about masks and proving government paid so called experts wrong at every turn. So, using my track record of the truth concerning the useless masks, here is a suggestion. When you see a post from fedup concerning man made global warming and the lies that are told by more government paid so called experts. You just might want to pay attention.
  11. Automakers reported nearly 400 crashes of vehicles with partially automated driver-assist systems, including 273 involving Teslas, according to statistics released Wednesday by U.S. safety regulators. Then the article yakked yakked yakked for awhile then revealed this NHTSA also said that five people were killed in the crashes involving driver-assist systems, and six were seriously hurt. Do you think they are already trying to downplay their great invention????? Fully autonomous vehicles: 130 crashes, none serious NHTSA's order also covered companies that are running fully autonomous vehicles, and 25 reported a total of 130 crashes. Google spinoff Waymo led with 62, followed by Transdev Alternative Services with 34 and General Motors-controlled Cruise LLC with 23. TECHNOLOGY Self-driving Waymo cars gather in a San Francisco neighborhood, confusing residents Waymo, the autonomous vehicle unit of Alphabet Inc., said it has more than 700 autonomous vehicles in its fleet. The company is running a fully autonomous ride-hailing service in Arizona and testing one in California. The company said all the crashes happened at low speeds, with air bags inflating in only two of them. In 108 of the crashes involving fully autonomous vehicles, no injuries were reported, and there was only one serious injury. In most of the crashes, vehicles were struck from the rear. https://www.npr.org/2022/06/15/1105252793/nearly-400-car-crashes-in-11-months-involved-automated-tech-companies-tell-regul#: Ban the guns, don't worry about the lazy people in their lazy cars.

  14. Have we become a nation of way too many lazy idiots????? Do you remember this??? 2009 way before the self driving cars but certain parts of the car were controlled by computers. SANTEE, Calif. — The Friday night trip began at the end of a week’s vacation, a family outing to a women’s college soccer game just days before Mahala Saylor, 13, would begin life as a high school freshman. The trip ended in August with a 911 call and the fiery wreck of a loaner Lexus sedan, killing Mahala, her parents, Mark and Cleofe Saylor, both 45, and her uncle, Chris Lastrella, 38. Even veteran investigators said it was the worst crash they had ever seen. Today, Fe Lastrella, mother of Cleofe Saylor and Chris Lastrella and grandmother of Mahala, is to tell members of a congressional committee about her family and question whether a floor mat trapping the gas pedal — as regulators say they believe — is the sole reason for the accident. Rarely, if ever, has one family’s fatal crash had such an impact, forcing the world’s largest automaker to admit thousands of sudden-acceleration complaints, recall more than 8 million vehicles worldwide and answer growing questions from Congress and consumers about its safety record. They were in a Lexus on loan from their Toyota dealer, a car they did not know had been reported by its previous borrower as speeding out of control. It’s his voice, captured in a 911 call made 49 seconds before the crash, that has been the key evidence so far of why the Lexus ES350 borrowed from a dealer sped out of control. “Our accelerator is stuck. We’re on 125,” Lastrella says. 911 dispatcher: “What are you passing?” “We’re going 120 at Mission Gorge. And we’re in trouble. We can’t … there’s no brakes. End freeway a half mile.” Lawyers for the families say that by the time Chris Lastrella dialed 911, they believe, Mark Saylor had done all he could to shut down the vehicle. They didn’t ask dispatchers for help or how they could control the car; Mark Saylor had the vehicle’s warning flashers on and may have been trying to warn other drivers. The call ended with the men saying “hold on” and “pray,” before the sound of impact with the bank of a dry riverbed. The car went airborne and rolled twice before landing and catching fire, likely from its white-hot brakes. https://www.twincities.com/2010/02/23/a-lexus-barreling-out-of-control-a-frantic-911-call-a-family-dead/ Hey people, the Jetsons was a cartoon, not a lesson in life.
  15. A bus carrying immigrants from Texas arrived at Vice President Kamala Harris's residence hours before Title 42 was set to expire. The 30 men, women, and children arrived at the home of the vice president on Thursday morning and were received by the organization SAMU First Response and Mutual Aid. This bus was the second one to arrive at the Naval Observatory in under 24 hours. The first bus carried almost 40 people, according to NBC Washington. If these invaders showed up in front of your house do you suppose this group of traitors to the US would come and get them for you?????
  16. A quote from Gators post "Township supervisors and borough council members in the state can get municipal health care coverage or have their own private insurance paid for by local governments under a 1995 provision of Pennsylvania law. I wouldn't really call it a secret. it's more of lack of complete info on purpose. I just brought up the possibilities because I have known people who have served on governing boards that joined just for the insurance. So, offering free insurance, actually beneficial for the public being governed???
  17. Raise your hand if you believe you need a self driving vehicle. Would you agree that driving while drunk or high would cause you to be less attentive? Would you agree that letting your car drive while you play paddy cake would cause you to be less attentive? So should we really have self driving vehicles driving up and down the road???? What happens if AI takes over the wheel????
  18. OK you ignorant liberal who is costing us all money with your stupid. Her is a grade school lesson that you must have missed in all the great education you received studying man made global warming. How much carbon dioxide does an acre of Michigan corn absorb in a growing season? That is a question that is often asked, and the answer may surprise many people. Our calculations show that number to be in excess of 36,000 lbs. of carbon dioxide per acre!Jun 7, 2007 Carbon is in carbon dioxide, which is a greenhouse gas that traps heat close to Earth. It helps Earth hold some of the heat it receives from the Sun so it doesn't all escape back into space. But CO2 is only good up to a point – beyond that point, Earth's temperature warms up too much. NASA research satellites such as OCO-2 and OCO-3 are studying how carbon moves around the planet. All living things on Earth contain carbon. Even you contain carbon. Lots of it! Like every other living thing on this planet, we are a part of Earth's carbon cycle. Plants take in CO2. They keep the carbon and give away the oxygen. Animals breathe in the oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide. Carbon, including carbon dioxide, has cycled into and out of the air for a long time. This cycling of carbon has stayed balanced over long periods of time. What is carbon dioxide? Carbon dioxide is an important gas for life on the planet. (Remember our deep breath in and out?) It is crucial to maintaining the protective blanket that is Earth's atmosphere. Carbon dioxide is often called "C-O-2" (pronounced see-oh-two) and written as "CO2" because "C" stands for carbon and "O" stands for oxygen. Carbon dioxide is one of the primary greenhouse gases on Earth. Now don't forget people, this lying liberal will tell you that it is ok to pollute as long as you buy Carbon Points from him and his other rich friends. This whole thing is a damn Liberal hoax designed to remove money from your hands and place that money in a certain few hands. You are being blatantly lied to everyday of your lives and those doing the lying is living off your tax dollars. You are paying them to lie to you.
  19. The article was all about carbon killing the world. As usual. It was not about the chemicals. They give you all these unproven numbers claiming how the act of farming is producing too much carbon but they never give you the whole story. How much carbon is being used up by all the green plants that are being planted???????? Just one more lopsided lie produced by the lying liberals.
  20. If you offer free insurance, someone will come and fill a seat just for the free insurance. Insurance is a huge expense especially to those living on a shoe string. If you can get free insurance for attending a meeting 12 times a year why not????
  21. Free insurance is how you get part timers to fill seats.

Totally surrounded by Rome, the city-state is in no way self-sustaining. Yet it does have a large, unionized workforce, a highly professional diplomatic corps, and a fairly good cash flow (due to support from Catholic parishes). What it does not have is any immigrants. Nor refugees. None. I tried to get the Holy See's official point-of-view on this question by contacting its official representative in the U.S., Archbishop Agostino Cacciavillan, the papal nuncio. His assistant insisted she could answer no questions, and all official questions must be addressed to the archbishop himself in writing. I faxed a few simple questions over in April but received no reply. https://www.thesocialcontract.com/artman2/publish/tsc0504/article_473.shtml
  23. The MSM and Baghdad Barbie not only ignores all of that they lie about it and the voting liberals believes every word they say. Have you ever seen this country in such a bad state as it is now? We were in bad shape concerning the 2 wars and the political wars since then but at least we was doing something about it at the time. The Liberals are completely responsible for all the bad you see and the GREEDY lazy Conservatives are the Liberals enablers. As usual, they are sitting back making big bucks from their cushy political jobs while they pretend they care about what is happening. If they cared they would remove their thumb from where it is at, get up, and do something about the fall of this country. You know damned well the the Conservatives knows who is funding the invaders and they know damn well how the Biden crime family has been screwing this country for years with the help from the Obama's and Clintons. Those helping the invaders of our country should be shot on site and the whole Biden family, the Obama's and the Clintons should be behind bars today.
  24. The non-stop invasion needs to stop. Who is paying for these people to get here? Find those people and kill them. Invasion ends. If you woke up this morning flat broke with just the shirt on your back how could you afford to leave Dubois, show up in Venezuela with new clothes and a back pact? Just how could you make that happen??? Don't forget you also obtained the money to pay the mules guiding you here (kill them also) and to pay for your transportation anywhere in the US. See people, these things can be solved with just a little effort. So killing the controllers of the invasion seems too much for you, TOUGH. We send our troops all over the world to kill and be killed saving other countries. Wake up Republicans, declare war on those who are helping the invasion and kill your enemies.

John Kerry targets agriculture as part of climate crusade Story by Thomas Catenacci • Yesterday 12:40 PM AdChoices FOX News Follow John Kerry targets agriculture as part of climate crusade Story by Thomas Catenacci • Yesterday 12:40 PM Martha. Chad Pergram, thank you very much. Loaded: 100.00% Replay Current Time 1:21 / Duration 1:21 QualitySettings Captions Fullscreen Unmute 0 View on Watch 8:48 MSNBCJohn Kerry: Meeting climate goals 'will require capturing emissions' by oil and gas industry Special Presidential Envoy for Climate John Kerry warned Wednesday that the world can't tackle climate change without first addressing the agriculture sector's emissions. Kerry lamented that agriculture production alone creates 33% of the world's total greenhouse gas emissions, arguing that reducing those emissions must be "front and center" in the quest to defeat global warming, during remarks Wednesday morning at the Department of Agriculture's AIM for Climate Summit. The former secretary of state also touted so-called climate smart agriculture as a potential solution. "A lot of people have no clue that agriculture contributes about 33% of all the emissions of the world," he said during his keynote address. "We can't get to net-zero, we don't get this job done unless agriculture is front and center as part of the solution. So all of us understand here the depths of this mission." "Food systems themselves contribute a significant amount of emissions just in the way in which we do the things we've been doing," he continued. "With a growing population on the planet – we just crossed the threshold of 8 billion fellow citizens around the world – emissions from the food system alone are projected to cause another half a degree of warming by mid-century." BIDEN CLIMATE CZAR JOHN KERRY'S TOP DEPUTIES DISCUSSED KEEPING DISCUSSIONS 'OFF PAPER' In the U.S., though, agriculture alone generates about 10% of total greenhouse gas emissions, federal data showed. Will someone remove this lying liberal POS, Please. He knows nothing except how to flap his lips with lies. Hey you stupid liberal pay attention----- Green plants play a very important role in the carbon cycle. They absorb carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere and produce carbon-containing sugars. This process is called photosynthesis.Nov 10, 2004 Can plants absorb carbon? Plants play a key role in mitigating climate change. The more carbon dioxide they absorb during photosynthesis, the less carbon dioxide remains trapped in the atmosphere where it can cause temperatures to rise.Dec 18, 2020 There is nothing this ignorant lying liberal and his fellow lying liberals won't touch. They are telling you that because you eat food that is planted you will raise the worlds temp. another half of degree by 2050. Don't forget that you ain't supposed to eat meat because cows fart.
