    Matt Gaetz says he has 60 Republicans ready to vote with him.
     

    Just imagine going to work and choosing to be part of a project led by Matt Gaetz. Thinking: that guy right there, he’s my Captain. Matt Gaetz. Wow.

    60 out of 221?  I'm not impressed.

    Say that again in a way that makes sense?

    Regardless - Joe Biden is a winner. He is the only guy who has beat Trump.

    But a woman (Clinton) also beat Trump in the popular vote.

    Thank the last institutional relic of the slavery era (EC) for installing the loser into the Whitehouse.

    Right now I’m in Bar Harbor, ME. for a hiking vacation in Acadia NP. That is, until the plonkers in the House GOP ruined it. 

    I rode the motorcycle through RMNP over Trail Ridge Road today. I hadn't even thought of the possibilty that might soon not be possible.

    Yep.

    As compared to conservatives who only want to move backwards. To about 1965.

    More likely 1963. Because the Civil Rights Act came along in 1964, and it has all been going to hell since then. :-(

    The last time they tried to impeach a sitting president it damaged their brand. And they actually had some beef in the bun that time. McCarthy couldn't resist, but I'm sure he wishes he could have.

    So the government is just 2 days from a shutdown because the House GOP can't even assemble a passable budget. Should we work on that? Nah, let's just have a circle jerk, trying to think of something to impeach Biden over.

    Valuation of property  for tax purposes in Cook County, IL is by ordinance 10% of the market value.  Maybe Florida is the same.

    I just compared my assessor's property valuation notice (dated May 1 this year), with what Zillow says my property is worth.

    The assessor's office say my property is worth 7.5% more than the Zillow estimate.


  7. Oh, this is good!

    Former president Trump has his own problems this evening stemming from the civil case against him, his older sons, and other officers and parts of the Trump Organization in New York, where Attorney General Letitia James has charged him with committing fraud by inflating the value of his assets. Today New York judge Arthur Engoron ruled that Trump and his company deceived banks and insurers by massively overvaluing his real estate holdings in order to obtain loans and better terms for deals. The Palm Beach County assessor valued Mar-a-Lago, for example, at $18 million, while Trump valued it at between $426 million and $612 million, an overvaluation of 2,300% (not a typo).

    LOL!!!
