Trump to share Intel on Obama Spying


"Oh, the Democrats and their supporters in the establishment media have had a good time trashing President Trump's tweeted claim of wiretapping.

When it was pointed out the New York Times had earlier reported the same, they changed the narrative.

When Rep. Devin Nunes offered corroboration, they turned their guns on him.

But now, in one fell swoop, the president has flipped the game board, and the Democrats' good time is about to end."

Regulation of Medical Marijuana

[Sunshine State News] A Florida House committee decided to move ahead with one of the strictest proposals to regulate medical marijuana in the Sunshine State on Tuesday, much to the chagrin of pro-pot advocates who have criticized the bill for going against the wants and desires of Florida voters.

By a 14-1 vote, the House Health Quality subcommittee approved a measure which would have widespread limitations on how Florida patients consume medical pot.

And guess what? Not only would smokeable cannabis be banned, but patients would also be barred from buying more than a 90-day supply of marijuana, edibles would be off-limits and “vaping” would only be allowed for terminal patients. Also, licenses can be yanked at any time.

The Lake Worth Commission voted the right way on March 21st when they voted 5/0 to establish a moratorium on applications, confirmation letters, business licenses, development orders and permits involving uses relating to medical marijuana. In spite of the correct vote, one of our Planning & Zoning board members chastised the entire commission on its vote.

Vacation Rentals

The bill (HB 425), sponsored by Rep. Mike La Rosa, R-St. Cloud, prevents local governments from imposing new restrictions on vacation homes. Local ordinances that were in effect on June 1, 2011, could remain, but restrictions adopted after that date, including laws based on a 2014 legislative compromise, would be declared "void and unenforceable" by the state and wiped off the books.

The parade of bill opponents included the Florida Association of Counties, Florida League of Cities, Flagler County, the Greater Miami and the Beaches Hotel Associations, and the cities of Bradenton Beach, Daytona Beach, Holmes Beach and Lake Worth.

California's Attorney General took thousands in campaign contributions from Planned Parenthood

US consumer confidence spiked to a 16-year high in March, according to the Conference Board’s monthly survey.

GOP working on Healthcare Reform

We made a promise to you. We promised to repeal and replace Obamacare. And I assure you, we are going to keep working toward that promise.


We’re in the business of helping improve people’s lives. That’s why we put the repeal of Obamacare at the top of our agenda -- because every day that Obamacare lives is another day that your taxpayer dollars fund Planned Parenthood, your premiums rise, and more insurers bail out.

But after ten years of being the opposition party, we’re feeling the growing pains of becoming the governing party. We’ll get through this, because we have to -- we have a responsibility to the American people to get things right.

We’ll continue to work on health care reform, while also focusing on the other campaign promises Republicans made in November.

I’m grateful for your support, Lynn. After eight years of liberal rule, it won’t be easy rolling back and replacing other remnants of the Democrats’ big government policies. I’ll need you with me in the months ahead.

It’s time to lead.

Onward,

On Thursday, the college is scheduled to host “Immigration & Civil Liberties in a New Era” on the campus west of Lake Worth,  4200 S. Congress Ave.

There will be three speakers:  Nancy Abudu, director of legal operations at the Florida American Civil Liberties Union; John DeLeon, attorney and past president of the Miami-Dade ACLU and Wilfredo Ruiz, communications director at the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

The discussion starts at 6 p.m. and will be held at the Public Safety Building, room 108.


Now check out who is speaking to our young kids? Liberals with an agenda. There will be no fair and balanced views and that's the problem in our colleges and universities today. They are all getting brainwashed by leftest and dangerous ideology.

Wave pool creeps forward

" Jupiter Farms residents did all they could Thursday to wipe out the idea of a surfing ranch in western Palm Beach County, but the plan is still on the drawing board.

Commissioners directed county staff to examine a possible land use change that would allow a firm affiliated with surfing legend Kelly Slater to build a surfing ranch with a 2,000-foot long wave pool at the Palm Beach Park of Commerce, which is located next to Jupiter Farms north of Bee Line Highway."

Sound familiar?

After Herman Robinson spoke on Tuesday night saying that our pool was derelict property, that it was unacceptable and that he wanted work sessions to find out "what we want," I didn't get the impression that he was talking about the people and what they wanted. He even mentioned a parking garage. His campaign promise talked about interlocal partnerships. What in the hell are those?  Partnerships with other governments? We already have one by accepting the $5 million bond money from the county that put a 30 year stipulation (strings) on the deal. And Lake Worth helped pay for that bond.

Many would say that Robinson was put into power to help forward Maxwell's agenda, a commissioner who has always wanted our beach project under its present form to fail. And we can't forget that Robinson received a campaign contribution from Delray New Wave LLC stating that the contribution was from an attorney. Michael Weiner is the registered agent for this corporation with his office right down the block from Hudson Holdings.

Right now we can fix our pool and we have the money to do it. The city manager tells us that the pool is leaking water and has hired an engineer to find out why.  He too has never had faith in our pool and wants our pool to fail. how do we know that it was not damaged during the casino construction? The pool area was used as a staging area for all the heavy equipment.

Ribbon Cutting – Lake Worth Domino Park
The City of Lake Worth is hosting a ribbon cutting ceremony for Domino Park, an unused parcel of land that has been upgraded with Community Development Block Grant funds to better accommodate residents. The ceremony will take place at 2:00pm on Tuesday, April 4th in Domino Park.

“Domino Park” was an unimproved parcel of land in the City right-of-way that has been used as a community meeting place for years by residents in the area.  Palm Beach County allowed the City to utilize unexpended Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds to make some improvements to the area that will better accommodate the residents through the provision of a more attractive venue and protection from the elements. 

“We were able to complete some of our other CDBG projects on time and under budget, so the County graciously allowed us to put the remaining funds toward other locations – Domino Park and the upgrading of the Osborne Pavilion specifically.  Residents in the area are always out here playing checkers and dominoes, so it’s great we were able to clean it up and provide a permanent structure to this community meeting place.”

A Rose by any other name--it's still a Sanctuary City

Paula Prudente, conservative, speaks to the West Palm Beach City Commission 
on illegal immigration and against the City's "Welcoming" Resolution

The meeting started at 5 PM today where the West Palm Beach mayor and city commission (all Democrats to my knowledge) met to pass a resolution and the adoption of what they are calling a Safe City Resolution or a "Welcoming" Resolution. What it means is, the city commission of West Palm Beach consisting of over 102 thousand residents just passed a resolution making the city a Sanctuary City.

Can you imagine these elected officials in charge of your life?  Your city? Welcoming illegal immigrants? The resolution indicates the city's refusal to cooperate with ICE (immigration) officials in their attempts to collect and deport illegal undocumented immigrants unless they commit a crime. Of course, simply being here IS a crime.

Evidently they have no fear in the federal government in its quest to crackdown on sanctuary cities that plans to pull federal funding.

Chief Operating Officer
Santa Clara Valley Water District
January 2017 – Present (3 months)

The District is the primary water resources agency for Santa Clara County, California. It is the largest multi-purpose water supply, watershed stewardship, and flood management special district in California. It acts not only as the County's water wholesaler but also as its flood protection agency and is the steward for its streams and creeks, underground aquifers and district-built reservoirs. The District’s FY 2016 Budget is $528 million dollars and employs about 750 FTEs’

The District is the primary water resources agency for nearly two million residents of the County. It encompasses all of the county’s approximately 1,300 square miles and serves the area’s 15 cities (Campbell, Cupertino, Gilroy, Los Altos, Los Altos Hills, Los Gatos, Milpitas, Monte Sereno, Morgan Hill, Mountain View, Palo Alto, San Jose, Santa Clara, Saratoga, and Sunnyvale) and also serves the unincorporated areas of the County.

The District sells treated water to 12 water retail companies and cities that service communities within the County via their own distribution systems. The District operate and maintain three water treatment plants, an advanced water purification center, ten local reservoirs and dams, a state-of-the-art water quality laboratory, dozens of groundwater recharge basin, five pump stations and 144 miles of pipelines.

I used to live in Santa Clara County (Silicon Valley) in the town of Milpitas right at the foothills. Gorgeous place.

If you notice, Susan has come a long way since she was fired by this Trio in Lake Worth.  Things usually work out for the best and it did for her, going from an operating budget of $30mil in Lake Worth to now one of the people who oversees a budget of $528 mil and is the COO. A Chief Operating Officer is usually responsible for the daily operations of the company.

I spoke with Susan and she said, "We are dealing with some flooding issues in San Jose ...and all that goes with it but this place is great."

Two Democrats, Mack Bernard and Al Jacquet, took advantage of gaping holes in Florida’s vote-by-mail laws to pressure and cajole voters in their living rooms.

Let the free market fix the problems on healthcare

Unfortunately her sensible solution was not to be.
1. “Pass the full Obamacare repeal bill. That gets us to 2008 when health care was far cheaper than it is today under the burdensome, heavily bureaucratic Obamacare mandates.
2. “Each state needs to decide what it wants to spend on health care and what it wants to offer its citizens, if anything. The federal government has repeatedly proved itself a failure on this issue for decades. They need to get out of creating monopolies in health care and punishing free market competition.
3. “All the federal government needs to do after repealing Obamacare is to pass a bill that allows any health insurance product to be sold across state lines with no minimum federal mandates. Period.
4. “Medicare eligible Senior citizens and poor people on Medicaid should have the option of choosing a voucher to spend toward the purchase of any type of healthcare plan they want, then put the surplus, if any in a Health savings account.
5. “I’d also encourage the states to pass liability shields for charity clinics. If doctors, nurses and facilities want to offer free healthcare, then the clinic and practitioners should be free from the threat of lawsuits.”
Her bottom line?

A Judge who cares about the law

From the Blaze:

"Judge Anthony Trenga, who was appointed by former President George W. Bush, said in his 32-page ruling that Trump was legally allowed to ban travel from those specific countries and that the executive order was not discriminatory in nature as the Palestinian activist who filed the lawsuit requesting an injunction had suggested.

Trenga wrote that the president “has unqualified authority to bar physical entry to the United States at the border.” He also pointed out that the executive order itself does not mention religion and has a “state secular purpose” of protecting U.S. citizens from terrorist attacks.

The judge didn’t view Trump’s campaign rhetoric about a “Muslim ban” as being dispositive and did not accord it the weight that Judge Derrick Watson in Hawaii did.

Here’s a good breakdown as to why Judge Watson’s opinion was wrong, including finding a violation of constitutional rights of non-citizens.

The interpretation of the judge in Virginia is much more in line with normal interpretation of the law.
Generally, you interpret a law, or in this case an order, based on the plain language, you don’t go looking at everything that may have ever been said on the subject, not even necessarily on the order itself.

You don’t look beyond it at intent unless the law/order is itself unclear, which this order is not. The order itself has no religion and has no discriminatory aspect about it. Not to mention as the judge in Virginia correctly notes, it is the purview of the president to set immigration policy, not the courts.

So thankfully there’s at least one judge who cares about the law and not reading his own opinion into it."

Both sides of the aisle on the American Healthcare Act

"Over the last several months, one of my top priorities has been listening to people in our community about how they will be impacted by health care reform. I’ve heard over and over again about the incredible burden that Obamacare has placed on 18th District families. Because of Obamacare, two of our counties now have only one insurer on the individual exchange, while premiums and deductibles have become beyond unaffordable.

During my more than 12 years in the Army, I never went into one battle that was finished with one shot and I never went in with the perfect plan either, but what I learned is that when we went in unified and we worked together, we never lost. Our broken healthcare system will not be fixed overnight. As I have said from the beginning, the only way we can fix the failures of Obamacare is through a fully transparent process that engages voices all across the country. Moving forward, I hope my colleagues on both sides of the aisle will join me in working to improve our nation’s healthcare system to ensure that everyone has the liberty to choose the health care that is best for their life.”

~ U.S. Rep. Brian Mast


"President Trump and Speaker Ryan should be ashamed of themselves for trying to force through a disastrous bill that would have ripped away health coverage from tens of millions of Americans, dramatically increased premiums, and severely cut Medicare and Medicaid. The American people spoke loud and clear; they do not support gutting their own health benefits in order to give massive tax cuts to health insurance companies. House Republicans need to start working with Democrats on real policy solutions that will benefit the American people."

Sober Home on Hillcrest


This is the same street where our Vice Mayor lives--a little bit of trivia.

1410 Hillcrest Drive

Joyce Shea from ROLO · 
Car was stolen from this sober home last night! This is more of a vent. So this home has changed operators several times. In the past 6 months there have been two robberies there where PBSO has asked us to look at our home surveillance video to see if we could see the crimes being committed which we captured. I called the sober task force today just over it, but was left sort of deflated as it was a v/m and it took a lot of ringing before that even picked up. Hope I hear back. Seriously considering erecting a billboard/sign in my front yard that says Sober homes are not welcome in this family community! The nail in the coffin was the "victim" said yeah this is supposed to be a Christian run home and he just rents to anybody! I don't begrudge anyone their hard work for their sobriety but these slum lords who run their homes as a boarding house with a revolving door should be shut down.

1410 Hillcrest Dr, Lake Worth, FL is a single family home that contains 2,072 sq ft and was built in 1966. It contains 2 bathrooms.

The Zestimate for this house is $275,459, which has decreased by $512 in the last 30 days. The Rent Zestimate for this home is $2,000/mo, which has decreased by $8/mo in the last 30 days. The property tax in 2015 was $2,127. The tax assessment in 2015 was $116,634, an increase of 0.8% over the previous year.

Chicago - Rahm Emanuel exposed

"Oh-oh! Rahm’s private emails are spilling the beans
By Thomas Lifson

A rock has been turned over in Chicago, and all kinds of revelations are scattering out.Bill Ruthhart and Hal Dardick report in the Chicago Tribune:

Mayor Rahm Emanuel's personal email accounts have served as a private avenue of influence where executives and investors sought favorable action from City Hall, raising questions about whether some of the messages crossed the line into lobbying and violated the city's ethics law, the Chicago Tribune has found.

Usually, such requests don't become public. But late last year, pressure from open records lawsuits resulted in Emanuel releasing a trove of emails in which he conducted public business on personal email. The messages offer a rare look at how the mayor operates out of the public spotlight and reveal who has his ear."
