The Former First Lady
Super Arrogant Michelle Obama Claims She’s America’s “Forever First Lady”
That’s When James Woods Crushes Her
"It’s truly pathetic to see Barack and Michelle Obama going around thinking that they were so much more than they really were to our country. They were a burden on our nation for eight years, and instead of doing what every other First Family did when their time in the White House was done and leave Washington alone, the Obamas continue to try and wiggle their way back into the spotlight. It’s pretty disgusting to watch. Unbelievable."Read about Michelle and see her new hair?do.
Lake Worth's City Manager wants to change our Charter on Heights
I just was glancing through the Agenda for the October 15 Commission Meeting and under New Business, there will be discussion on "potential ballot language." There are five different items for discussion that "staff" wants--one of which is for a charter revision for heights.
We are allowed to amend our Charter, as Building Heights are already described in our Charter with an Ordinance that took effect on December 5, 1996. What we really can't do is twist the intent.
Sec. 11. - Building height limitation.
Back in 2013 we had a referendum on Heights--It took a lot of work gathering signatures and getting it on the ballot. It was an off year (no general election and therefore turn-out was low). We did have 15% of our voters show up at the polls, better than most municipalities in Palm Beach County. Those who cared about it voted, along with those who were persuaded by the city's campaign against us.
I will be interested to see what the city administration has in mind. There is always someone who wants to screw up our city.

Sec. 11. - Building height limitation.
East of Dixie Highway within the city no building or part thereof shall be constructed which exceeds a vertical height of sixty-five (65) feet above grade. West of Dixie Highway within the city no building or part thereof shall be constructed which exceeds a vertical height of one hundred (100) feet above grade.
(Ord. No. 96-32, § 1, 12-5-96)Back in 2013 we had a referendum on Heights--It took a lot of work gathering signatures and getting it on the ballot. It was an off year (no general election and therefore turn-out was low). We did have 15% of our voters show up at the polls, better than most municipalities in Palm Beach County. Those who cared about it voted, along with those who were persuaded by the city's campaign against us.
- The city threw every obstacle in the way of getting out the vote--from using taxpayer money to oppose it, to putting it on the ballot at a time of year (March) that was not an advantage to voter turn-out. This was a strategic move by the city in order to try and defeat the Referendum which was won by 56% of the vote by residents who wanted the city to remain low-rise.
- Maxwell, Triolo and Amoroso were all for raising heights in our downtown to accommodate Hudson Holdings who bought the Gulfstream hotel and a company that also wanted to grab our beach park.
- Hudson Holdings gave $9,000 to a Tallahassee PAC to influence our elections--one mailer was in favor of the Trio (and why wouldn't they be in favor...the incumbents gave them the up-zoning at the Gulfstream property). Hudson wanted to grab our beach complex for a possible 99 year lease after renewals in order to make their investment in Lake Worth even more valuable.
- Only two commissioners respected the people and the vote: Christopher McVoy and Ryan Maier. Ryan Maier did not run again, eventually leaving the area due to all the unpleasantness that went on during his term in office, i.e.,a resident calling Code on him and harassing him at his residence. The complainer didn't even live in this city but was friends with the "development at any cost" crowd.
- And the City got real clever one night as I was sitting in the chamber. Some friend of William Waters put a cog in our wheel by coming up with some Florida decree (HB 537) that went into law three months after our referendum that they insist made our vote moot that had nothing to do with our Amendment. Of course, Torcivia and gang ran with it. The Trio could have voted to honor the will of the people--they didn't.
- As the PBPost said in July 2013, "we really don’t like Tallahassee’s decree that such votes are no longer permitted [that has not been proven in court]. Stifling citizens’ voices on these issues leaves only the voice of elected officials susceptible to special interests..."
- The Trio later voted from the dais, approving a Hotel Overlay District that granted higher heights.
I will be interested to see what the city administration has in mind. There is always someone who wants to screw up our city.
Liberals are openly choosing Illegals over American Citizens
This is an old video but relative more than ever today. California, with its over-the-top left-wing liberal policies, still refuses to stop illegal aliens. They are against secured borders, are a sanctuary state and coddle illegals. Why? Does anyone understand this?
And now New York City has a new law enacted by their Commission on Human Rights and their dimwit mayor--you can be fined for using the words "illegal alien." Violators can be punished with exorbitant and punitive fines—up to $250,000 per "offense."

Adam Schiff - A Piece of Work
Trump Says He Wants Rep. Adam Schiff ‘Questioned for Fraud and Treason’
"...almost every Democrat in the House could be considered conspirators if they try to impeach President Trump without evidence of a felony or a misdemeanor. They spread lies and innuendo and try to pass it off as truth or intentionally misrepresent what was said or done in order to make it appear that the president is guilty of wrongdoing."Read more about it...

Commission not accountable to Taxpayers?
Lake Worth Beach commissioners spend nearly $9,000 on Hawaii trip
This blog mentioned this on July 8 with a photo of the luxurious resort. Read the commentsRead the Post article
"LAKE WORTH BEACH — Mayor Pam Triolo and Commissioner Andy Amoroso spent six nights at a Hawaiian resort in June to attend a U.S. Conference of Mayors gathering.
The cost of the trip? Nearly $9,000. They traveled just three months before approving a budget that includes $800,000 in payroll cuts, five layoffs and elimination of popular programs such as monthly block parties."
The commission voted a few years ago that they didn't have to have discussion from the dais and approval on their travel...they just didn't think it was the public's right to know. Now everything they do as far as travel is out of the sunshine. And during their excursion to Hawaii, Omari Hardy attempted a coup of getting an ordinance passed on ADU's.
Losers Protest Trump Rally
Protesters burn MAGA hats
Police use pepper spray in tense hours after Donald Trump rally in Minneapolis
"The protest began in the afternoon with various immigrant, women's and anti-war groups assembling against the president as Trump supporters lined to enter the venue." We saw them all at the end of the rally--throwing objects, burning MAGA hats even hitting the horses. Pathetic group. Anti-War groups? they should love Trump.Read about these dumbazzes as Democrats never condemn these people--antifa, Black Lives Matter, etc., they will lose BIG TIME in 2020.

Warren: Inmates Are ‘Entitled’ To Taxpayer-Funded Transgender Surgery
“I will direct the Bureau of Prisons to end the Trump Administration’s dangerous policy of imprisoning transgender people in facilities based on their sex assigned at birth.”~ Elizabeth Warren
Pocahontas also indicated that she is open to the idea of legalizing prostitution. Warren’s plan also appears to favor decriminalizing infecting someone with HIV. [Daily Wire]

Crooked Hillary
Some around here wonder why I bring up crooked Hillary from time to time. The answer is--she is a deplorable, a true one.

Not China

Not England
How many Obama-era officials are complicit in Ukrainian corruption?
