If DeSantis runs in the 2024 Presidential primary, I think I will vote for him.

Any funds from the CSC, the $27 million giveaway, private donations that went to campaigns, go to The Brehorn House? The CSC paid the chamber rats $100,000 of taxpayer funds. That was not money well spent. Why don’t the City and County Commissioners donate money out of their expense accounts to the Brehorn House instead of the Greater Tallahassee Chamber of Commerce Buffalo Pool Party? What about the $5 million gun violence boondoggle that does nothing to deter crime? Redirect those funds to the Brehorn House.

It appears to me there’s plenty of that could be allocated to the Brehorn House, but the leaders do a poor job of designating the taxpayers funds.

Make every non-profit who beelines it down to the chamber rat junket on the “taxpayers dime” give that share to the Brehorn House.

Again, the money is there. In fact where is the investigative report to add up all the money nonprofits have mis-spent to attend the chamber wreck junket out of town? It has to be in the millions of dollars?

“The Brehon House has been helping pregnant women for the last 45 years, but Deputy Director Halle Bush says their facility has seen an increase of pregnant mothers seeking housing. “A lot of it is employment and housing are the two biggest issues…”

Notwithstanding special circumstances… Why is it that we simply accept and accommodate irresponsible behavior, fatherless families, and the entitlement mattress mentality within our communities of color? Where are the community leaders? Where are the community mentors? Where are the community Faith Leaders? Where is anyone willing to address the real problem rather than ignore, pacify, and placate?

As I’ve noted many times… You will never solve a problem you refuse to acknowledge.

Where are the concerns by the mayor regarding…

Crime
Crime
And More Crime
Sewage Spills
Sewage Spills
And More Sewage Spills
Mistreatment of Veterans (parade)
New Communications Director
Nationwide Search For City Manager

Who doesn’t let the veterans have a parade and then sends them a bill that basically puts them out of business and turns around and plans a bicentennial event?

But fear not 24/7 publicity stunts, PR hacks, opinions and My Views strategically placed by Chamber-Crats, taxpayers funds to hire campaign managers, and bundled contributions will divert attention away from relevant issues.

Right you are and the governing 3-person majority (Williams-Cox, Dailey, and Richardson) of Chambercrats bears the responsibility for that. They are entirely running the direction of city policy and personnel decisions.

And, yesterday 4 people were arrested and charged with Possession of a Firearm by a Felon. 4 others were arrested and charged with using a Firearm while Committing a Felony. One of the later was charged with Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon. WCTV/Fox59 didn’t cover it either. Maybe because the crimes were committed by African Americans. Keeping crime a secret is the next best thing to eliminating it.
