This should be the response to the insanity taking over our college campuses. Kick them off campus, expel them and let the chips fall where they may… and to our “elite” institutions …. If their student visas get revoke because of their dangerous antisemitic…

Drove by MSD High on my way home. Thought of the families of those who lost love ones in Uvalde. Tragic, horrifying, senseless killings. Keeping their entire community in mind and praying for them. It is going to be a long difficult journey for everyone affected. So sad. 🙏🙏🙏
Thinking of all we lost. Praying for the families of those who were senselessly taken from us. Wishing strength to those that were injured both physically and mentally. With love and support for the entire community today and everyday we are

teams for their hard work.
Militant groups don’t torture and burn innocent civilians. They don’t take hostages. They don’t rape for fun. Terrorist groups do that.
Was ISIS a “militant group” NO they were terrorists. Same goes for Hamas.

Well I tried. I made a motion to lower the mill rate. After vigorous debate it failed. The vote was 6-2 against my motion to reduce. Tried hard for our Broward Taxpayers. I’ll try again. I believe we should provide some level of relief for taxpayers.
Commissioners taking first vote on FY24 budget. This is the first public hearing. Proposed budget does not increase the property tax rate. Some Commissioners favor keeping millage rate the same to increase reserves.

says now is the time to cut millage rate.

we are up to 8 terminals of 12 running at full speed getting gas out. Trucks have been granted waivers by the State to operate longer. We are being assisted by ports in N Fl delivering fuel. Stations are getting supplies by the minute.

Gasoline from companies from Tampa and Canaveral are still delivering directly to stations to supplement. Fuel ships continue to bring petroleum products to Port Everglades. There is no shortage of gas.

Delays at the pump are expected to decrease as fuel trucks continue to deliver to stations.
Drivers should remain judicious about fueling up until all the petro companies are back online.
We continue to get more proof, documented evidence unimaginable barbarism and atrocities.... I continue to stand by my comments below. There are not "both sides here"... there is no "moral equivalent". Hamas must be completely destroyed! Am Yisrael Chai!

Our public health orgs (cdc,who etc) need to do a better job messaging and laying out facts. I said this a year ago, it's even more true today. Flip Flops and about faces erode public trust quickly and once gone its hard to get back. Get vaccinated as data shows better results!
