#OhioPropertyTaxes for public schools. Ironic that Project 2025 already told you the death of public schools. But on top of that we now are funding Lifewise school w monies designated for public school. #Abolish

Abolish Property Taxes. I’d rather follow other countries and deal with VAT taxes at the time of purchase. Money seldom is used appropriately . Police etc? I noticed Feds using our money in ICE. We need to blow everything up
Casually building up my list of ragebait policies of the cycle for me to take the unpopular but fundamentally right position on. So far I've got:

* Don't abolish the property tax.
* Data centers are actually good for Ohio.

What else are you all mad about?

Donald Trump carried Pennsylvania’s Bucks County in 2024. Last week, the Republican sheriff who’d partnered with ICE to aid deportations lost his reelection bid to Democrat Danny Ceisler.
Voters Ousted This Pennsylvania Sheriff After He Signed Up to Collaborate With ICE
A populous swing county replaced its GOP sheriff on Tuesday after months of controversy over his joining ICE’s 287(g) program. The Democratic winner promises he’ll end the contract.

Crazy stuff coming out of Utah right now.
Utah Republicans want to ban Pride flags in schools but are fine with allowing Nazi flags to fly. Let that sink in.

Why are women not talking about the Save Act? Are your voting rights not important to you? Are you really ok that your husband will vote but you can’t- the Family Vote. Get your passport with your current name renewed!! If you do not have one start the process now. #saveAct

Just last week someone told me Trump would never shut down USAID because it buys so much US grain and I said, "I wonder if he knows that"
If only experts existed who could warn Americans repeatedly that foreign aid is money spent to pay Americans and buy things from Americans but no one's ever said it out loud so who can blame people for not understanding
U.S. businesses that sold goods and services to USAID are in limbo, including American farms dealing in rice, wheat and soybeans purchased as food aid.

Trump just said he'll bring back law and order.
Remember the last time he was here:
When Republicans “claim to be the party of law and order, Americans should remember the day that [Trump] was willing to sacrifice the men and women of the thin blue line on the altar of his own ambitions,” @radiofreetom.bsky.social writes:
Trump Returns to the Scene of the Crime
On January 6, 2021, Trump’s supporters attacked scores of police officers as the president stood by.

Why Does No One Understand the Real Reason Trump Won?

It wasn’t the economy. It wasn’t inflation, or anything else. It was how people perceive those things, which points to one overpowering answer.

Trump nominated Gaetz to be the chief law enforcement officer of the United States, knowing full well this damning report was out there
THE GAETZ REPORT is out: “Trump's nominee to be attorney general was found by congressional ethics investigators to have paid numerous women — including a 17yo girl — for sex, purchased and used illegal drugs, including from his Capitol Hill office…” www.cbsnews.com/news/matt-ga...

Thread. It’s exactly what I’ve been saying….
It seems pointless to say this On Here, where everyone knows it already, but: the GOP of 2024 that was going to protect Matt Gaetz from disclosure of his statutory rape and sex trafficking, and was going to make him the country's chief LEO, is allegedly obsessed with preventing "grooming."

We had plenty of similar blowups in Trump I. Have people forgotten the longest ever government shutdown six years ago? It ended after 35 days with Trump agreeing to reopen government without getting what he wanted from Congress.

The most telling part of Trump's long comment about suing the media came at the very end, when he said "I shouldn't really be the one to do it. It should have been the Justice Department or somebody else. But I have to do it."

It "should have been" the DOJ...

229,766 voters in just 3 states actually decided the 2024 election.

The other 155,200,000 of us did not actually count.

Christopher Wray resigned as FBI director. Was it capitulation or defiance?

I think it was defiance. Wray's resignation actually narrowed Trump's options. There was a path to rapidly appointing Patel as an acting director, without Senate confirmation. That path is now closed:

Now, the Senate has to do its job.
