@JonnyBones I can only imagine what a White House fight payout could’ve been for you, had you taken the offer to fight Aspinall originally! Win or Lose, a Jones vs Aspinall 2 arguably would’ve been your biggest paycheck, and your final ride into the sunset.
@OANN@Daniel_PerezFL@mattgaetz Crazy that republicans are going after the one Governor who kept Florida free during COVID. It just goes to show that there is no loyalty, honesty or integrity anymore. Forget the political parties, I’d rather align myself with a Navy veteran than either of those two guys.
If you’re self funding your campaign in excess of $250K to serve in a state legislature in public service, would you also pay that same cost to serve your local church ministry, the hungry at a local non-profit or to oversee the safety as a volunteer traffic guard at the nearest elementary school?
Is it really about service or what there is to gain?
Make it make sense.
Make no mistake Floridians: Debbie Mayfield stood with the Amnesty Caucus here in Florida. She wanted the (then) existing laws to be lightened for illegals. She was pushing for the ❌ on this side by side comparison. She NEVER stood with Trump, DeSantis, or Homan. She was in it for big weed and illegal aliens.
THANK GOD Debbie and her trashy friends (Fine, Griters, Simpson, Porras, and scumbag Perez) were slammed down in their place.
Her post below is their attempt at gaslighting, manipulating Floridians. Thankfully we are all too smart for that! Tell your neighbors, tell your friends… Debbie Mayfield is a loser.

If youre looking for a candidate, Tim is a credible and qualified Republican running in the Senate District race.
.@PeteHegseth would never tolerate a Navy Secretary more focused on climate change than shipbuilding and lethality. That is a welcome change from the Biden Pentagon.
@RobertKennedyJr What a beautiful tribute to your mother. May she rest in the arms of our creator and may God bless and comfort your family during this time of grieving.
Yes, we are a nation of laws. But we have *too many* laws, and most of them were never passed by Congress but were instead enacted as federal “rules” by unelected bureaucrats. Dismantling that bureaucracy shouldn’t be a partisan issue. In fact, it should be *the most unifying issue* in America, as the following case study reveals:
In 1938, FDR signed a bill creating the Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB), an “independent agency” that crushed the life out of the airline industry. If you wanted to start up a new airline, you needed a permission slip from the CAB. The board also decided how much you could charge for a ticket & what routes you were allowed to fly. In 40 years of the CAB’s existence, not a single new airline opened for business. It was a textbook example of regulatory capture crowding out the competition.
Republican President Gerald Ford got the ball rolling in 1975 when he proposed reducing the CAB's power. Other key players in the anti-CAB movement were Democratic Sen. Ted Kennedy, Senate staffer (and future SCOTUS justice) Stephen Breyer, and Jimmy Carter (who replaced Ford in the White House).
In 1978, the bill abolishing the CAB passed the House 363-8 and passed the Senate 82-4.
Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch explains what happened next in his new book, “Over Ruled: The Human Toll of Too Much Law”:
“[B]etween 1978 and 2011, base ticket prices dropped by almost 40 percent in inflation-adjusted terms. As a result, millions of people flocked to the skies for the first time. An activity that had once belonged largely to elites became one that many Americans take more or less for granted.”
Ronald Reagan said that federal agencies were “the nearest thing to eternal life we'll ever see on this earth.” But that’s only true if we let it be true. Prosperity is unifying, and the path back to it requires shutting down the regulatory state.
Very few Americans realize that, if Trump is NOT elected, this will be the last election. Far from being a threat to democracy, he is the only way to save it!
Let me explain: if even 1 in 20 illegals become citizens per year, something that the Democrats are expediting as fast as humanly possible, that would be about 2 million new legal voters in 4 years.
The voting margin in the swing states is often less than 20 thousand votes. That means if the “Democratic” Party succeeds, there will be no more swing states!!
Moreover, the Biden/Harris administration has been flying “asylum seekers”, who are fast-tracked to citizenship, directly into swing states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin and Arizona. It is a surefire way to win every election.
America then becomes a one-party state and Democracy is over. The only “elections” will be the Democratic Party primaries. This already happened in California many years ago, following the 1986 amnesty.
The only thing holding California back from extreme socialism and suffocating government policies is that people can leave California and still remain in America. Once the whole country is controlled by one party, there will be no escape.
Everywhere in America will be like the nightmare that is downtown San Francisco.
It's not just Houston that has a problem this time, it's all of America.
If you do anything in November, please vote and demand more from your elected officials and demand absolute accountability from corporate America's obsession with profit over people. As we zero in on the upcoming election, I couldn't be more ill from the constant regurgitation of the typical narratives shared by both candidates. GDP, war, inflation, securing the border. It's the same rinse, wash, and repeat we see every election cycle. These talking points are discussed as obnoxiously loud and as long as Jimmy Fallon's theatrical and staged Late Night laughs - and that's coming from someone who likes Jimmy.
The brightest economists of our day are sounding the alarm on what is forthcoming and we are not at all prepared for it. Artificial Intelligence is the bountiful Christmas gift long awaited by corporate America. It is the new religion of the six sigma ideologists who champion the dogma as mere efficiencies to achieve the largest margins. Well, because as they say - it's all about the bottom line!
However, the bottom line WILL fall out and more Americans will continue to find less opportunity. But how does less opportunity reaffirm what James Truslow Adams had described in the American Dream during the Great Depression where "every person has the freedom and opportunity to succeed and attain a better life."? How does Ai affirm this notion and when can hard working Americans once again afford the "American Dream" as Ai decimates labor markets across the nation.
Today, and now more than ever, we are in a desperate need of an administration who will act swiftly and deal with matters that are most complex. In 2016, when Presidential candidate Andrew Wang, discussed a universal basic income, Americans immediately rejected the policy as being a construct of social welfare. However, day by day, it becomes more apparent that without assessing a UBI based on current labor and financial markets and correlating it to the skills and wealth of Americans today, I feel as though we will miss the mark, let the opportunity lapse and find a 1/3 of Americans struggling in poverty.
I don't have the answers. You don't have the answers. But we as Americans know one thing - we have a republic. And the republic IS worth fighting for. We must elect the brightest and best amongst us to solve the most complex technological challenges of our nations history or we will have an aristocracy where the least amongst us are those who rule over the best of us.
In the late 1800's American's were prepared and ready for industrialization. In 2024, can we truly say that we're ready for technolization?
This was not written by artificial intelligence (but maybe it should have been?)

@CollinRugg Pastor Mark wasn’t wrong. The act had no place before what was going to be preached from the pulpit and every observation he made was reflected in those audiences hearts as heard by their dismay to Mark being removed. MD was 100% spot on.
