So, apparently most Florida Sheriffs would rather you risk losing your home and severely cut spending on food and other necessities rather than they cut out:
* growing administrative overhead,
* operational redundancies,
* structural overspending, and
* spending rates at double and triple inflation.
A few examples:
Lamborghinis, flock cameras, new cars every year that officers take home instead of leave for next shift, more helicopters than needed, “excessive branding,” $400.00 tips on credit cards, $58,000 on new office chairs, etc.

🚨 BREAKING: The US Senate has just REJECTED the SAVE America Act as part of budget reconciliation, 48-50 — would've required voter ID and proof of citizenship nationwide

REPUBLICAN NAYs: Thom Tillis, Lisa Murkowski, Mitch McConnell and Susan Collins

UNBELIEVABLE!!

It needed 60 votes.

Why can't the Senate pass what over 80% of Americans want?!

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

🚨 BOOM! Gov. Ron DeSantis just dropped this line:

"I can tell you this."

"The State of Florida, 4 years in a row — WE'VE REDUCED OUR BUDGET. Reduced. Reduced. Reduced."

"SO IT CAN BE DONE."

"AND YET — we still reduce taxes...infrastructure accelerated by billions. BUDGET'S STILL GOING DOWN."

"We have a full rainy day fund. Ample reserves...even with doing that, we're doing TENS OF MILLIONS for law enforcement bonuses." 👏🏻

DeSantis just signed a $117.6 billion budget for Fiscal Year 2026-27, the fourth straight year of lower state spending

Florida’s rainy-day fund is maxed at the $5 billion constitutional limit, with nearly $18 billion in total reserves

Floridians have pulled in nearly $9.7 billion in tax relief under his watch, including the full repeal of the commercial rent tax

THAT'S MY GOVERNOR! ☀️

🔥 TRUMP JUST REPOSTED JFK’S MOST TERRIFYING SPEECH — AND THE DEEP STATE IS PANICKING

JFK saw it coming. In 1961. And now, Trump has just made sure 300 million Americans see it, too.

The speech everyone’s talking about: Kennedy’s address to the American Newspaper Publishers Association, April 27, 1961. The CIA had just botched the Bay of Pigs. Kennedy was livid. He’d been lied to by his own intelligence apparatus. And he walked onto that stage and said something no president has dared say since.

“We are opposed around the world by a monolithic and ruthless conspiracy that relies primarily on covert means for expanding its sphere of influence — on infiltration instead of invasion, on subversion instead of elections, on intimidation instead of free choice.”

Read that again. Monolithic. Ruthless. Conspiracy.

This wasn’t some fringe radio host. This was the sitting President of the United States, on live television, telling the American people that a shadow network of power — operating through intelligence agencies, media complicity, and institutional capture — was working against the republic itself.

And then he said the quiet part out loud:

“Its preparations are concealed, not published. Its mistakes are buried, not headlined. Its dissenters are silenced, not praised. No expenditure is questioned, no rumor is printed, no secret is revealed.”

Sound familiar?

Sixty-five years later, Trump drops this video on Truth Social. No commentary needed. The speech does all the work. And within hours, the same media outlets that spent four years calling Trump a conspiracy theorist are suddenly very quiet.

Here’s what they don’t want you to connect:

- Kennedy was assassinated 2.5 years after this speech

- The Warren Commission was a joke — even the House Select Committee on Assassinations in 1979 concluded Kennedy was “probably assassinated as a result of a conspiracy”

- The files are STILL classified

- Trump has been pushing to release them, but the permanent national security state refuses, instead slow-walking the order

The timing isn’t random. This isn’t just history. JFK described a permanent national security state that has only grown more entrenched — one that operates beyond elections, beyond accountability, beyond the reach of voters.

Kennedy called it “a system which has conscripted vast human and material resources into the building of a tightly knit, highly efficient machine that combines military, diplomatic, intelligence, economic, scientific, and political operations.”

That machine didn’t disappear when he died. It got even stronger.

Trump reposting this isn’t nostalgia. It’s a signal. The same forces JFK warned about are the same forces that tried to destroy Trump — Russiagate, two impeachments, lawfare, media blackout, assassination attempts. The playbook hasn’t changed. Only the names.

And now the sitting president just reminded the country who the real enemy has always been.

The speech that scared them then is the speech they’re terrified you’ll watch now.

Sharing this because they’re counting on you not to watch it. Don’t let them win. 🎯

🎪 STEP RIGHT UP! YOUR TAX DOLLARS ARE PAYING FOR THE WHOLE CIRCUS.

More spending. More projects. More reasons they “need” your money.

Maybe the problem isn’t that government needs more money.

Maybe too much has been allowed under the tent.

Amendment 3 changes the rules under the Big Top.

Two years ago, millions of Americans were praying for President Trump to defeat Kamala Harris. He did - and despite the nonstop noise, he has already delivered major wins.

No, the country isn’t fully repaired. Nobody fixes decades of damage overnight. But surrendering to political defeatism while attacking the man doing the fighting helps nobody.

And let’s be honest: conservatives cannot complain about RINOs while ignoring the elections that put them on the ballot.

Bad candidates survive because good voters arrive too late. They skip the primaries, ignore local party positions and leave the organizing to somebody else - then become furious when November presents them with terrible choices.

Washington is shaped long before Election Day. Candidates are identified, financed and supported while most voters aren’t paying attention.

If you want better Republicans, fight in the primaries.
If you want to stop Democrats, show up in the midterms.

President Trump cannot rebuild America by himself. Trust his leadership, stay involved and bring others into the fight.

A movement that only complains after losing isn’t a movement. It’s an excuse.

🚨 IT'S OFFICIAL: AAG Harmeet Dhillon says 300 attorneys within her division QUIT the DOJ because she's trying to purge voter rolls of ineligible voters, and end DEI

GOOD RIDDANCE!

They SELF DEPORTED! 👋🏻

Dhillon is REFUSING to back down on getting rid of illegal aliens, noncitizens and ineligibles off the state voter rolls. This is EXISTENTIAL for America's elections

No state should be allowed to cheat.

@AAGDhillon is also rooting out discrimination and DEI that was allowed to fester under Biden.

I voted for every minute of this! Anyone who quits DOJ because America first is being prioritized WON'T BE MISSED

@j_fishback Shame on you James. I call this being a sore loser.

[Loggerhead @321FLSpaceCoast]

Evan Power, Chairman of the FL GOP, has bragged for the last couple of years about how many more voters have registered as Republican versus Democrat in Florida.

Evan Power felt so good about the numbers that he decided coronating Byron, on behalf of his corrupt lobbyists, was a safe bet. Sure, he calculated that the GOP would lose some votes, but not enough to lose the upcoming gubernatorial election.

Well, it looks like Evan Power underestimated the convictions of the FL GOP base who are looking for a solid gubernatorial replacement to fill the shoes of Gov. DeSantis…..and that sure as hell ain’t Byron Donalds.

Now Chairman Power is in a panic. He has painted himself into a corner and he’s begging his base to get out and start knocking on doors to turn out the vote for the corrupt candidate that he, and the corrupt FL GOP leadership, chose to coronate against the will of their base.

Well Evan, let me put this as tenderly as possible.

You royally screwed over Florida’s hard working families and small business owners and we sure as hell ain’t going out knocking on doors to turn out the vote for the corrupt candidate that you coronated in opposition of what we felt was in the best interest of our families and our small businesses.

You may have broken it, but we’ll fix it and we will do it without you.

For myself, I’ll either vote for a true conservative write-in candidate or I’ll abstain from voting in the gubernatorial election.

But, either way, you can bet your last dollar that I won’t be voting to Byron our Florida !

[Deb Herman @DebHerman196574]

@LeaderJohnThune True- so pass the SAVE ACT now!!

[Adam Carolla @adamcarolla]

True

[Deb Herman @DebHerman196574]

@atensnut We have to plug our noses on Donalds, but the alternative is communism pure & simple.

Back in 2008 oil damn near hit $148 a barrel and gas was around 4 bucks.

Now oil is way lower and somehow we’re still paying more at the pump.

You can throw out all the excuses you want, but regular people know when something smells fishy.

Something ain’t right.

[Deb Herman @DebHerman196574]

@mattvanswol Horrific! These judges must be impeached!

[Deb Herman @DebHerman196574]

@LeaderJohnThune And you, sir, have acted like a coward & let 80 million voters down. Pass the SAVE ACT!

[Derrick Evans @DerrickEvans4WV]

I am so angry with the Republican Party right now but everything would be worse if Democrats get in control.

We have to hold our noses, vote for the lesser of two evils, and start taking the primaries a lot more seriously.

[Unmask The SYS @UnmaskTheSys]

🚨 RUBIO JUST SAID THE NUMBER THEY NEVER WANTED ON TV 🚨

Americans work 40 years.
They retire.
Social Security: $800. $900. A thousand a month.

Somebody who got here from Cuba three months ago: $1,500 a month.

Marco Rubio said it out loud.

“So imagine if you’ve been working here for 40 years and your Social Security check is smaller than the benefits going to a 28-year-old, able-bodied person who just got here. That’s real. That happens. That’s happening every day. That makes no sense.”

You paid in.
They landed.
They beat your check.

That’s not compassion.
That’s a slap in the face with your own tax dollars.

CNN Staffers Panic over Paramount Merger: ‘Bloodbath Coming,’ Newsroom Is ‘Like a Funeral’

How awful for them!
They may be forced to actually report the truth now!😂

How will they ever cope?🙄

I hope Kaitlan Collins is one of the 1st to go. 😆

From the article:

“People are very nervous,” one CNN staffer told the outlet. “It’s dark. It’s like when you do hurricane coverage. You see the storm spinning off the coast of Haiti and moving towards Florida and you’re just waiting and you’re like, ‘Oh, s–t’.”

“Bloodbath coming, including at CNN,” a TV executive confided. “That’s the next big step — slashing and burning,” while others also drew death-by-takeover comparisons.

CNN staffers were worried over Paramount boss David Ellison’s connections to Trump — as well as that of Ellison’s father, Larry, who is a huge Trump donor.

The fearful employees were apparently fretting that CNN will be forced to make a turn to the right if Ellison gets control, and voiced their worries to CNN executive Amy Entelis.

Now their worst nightmares have been realised.
Paramount anticipates at least $6 billion in cost savings, which would translate to several thousand jobs lost in the months ahead.
