He's the one that approved it.

Here's the forbes.com article that lays it out ( https://www.forbes.com/sites/billyba...h=715c6e126ebc )

Here's some excerpts
Lol. Yep, already admitted because Trump started it, sweetie. However, Sleepy Joe promised more, extended it , gave more, let folks continue to let folks live rent free, even when there were a huge amount of jobs available, hence causing a huge loss in tax revenue…and now we’re experiencing skyrocketing inflation that hasn’t been seen in 40+ years, but great attempt on trying to get that gotcha moment to try to defend the hand that feeds you

At least you admitted that Trump was the cause of it. That's a huge step for you....we're all very proud. lol

Never said otherwise. Because Trump didn’t extend it or give more when so many jobs were available, which has gotten us to the skyrocketing inflation that hasn’t been seen in 40+ years…but I am greatly amused that the Sleepy Joe regime is trying to blame it on Russia. It just keeps making for better tv.

It’s just another attempt at deflection and a gotcha moment that can be seen coming from so far away

lol yeah and DeSantis just voted to raise taxes on the residents of Orange and Osceola county by 2,200 to 5,000. He committed political suicide and Disney is thankful no longer to pay for the burden of self government.

These dummies are losers and gonna cost them future elections.

Lol. Please post proof to him costing the residents by 2200-5000?

They’re both as popular as ever.

and this is what it's all about, folks - do we live under the law of the constitution or do we live under the law of the CDC and the "scientific" cult of public health and illness

Fauci: "We are concerned about courts [meaning the constitution] getting involved in things that are unequivocally a public health decision. This is a CDC issue."

https://twitter.com/disclosetv/statu...53823571673089

public health is not the law of the land - when we thought we were in a public health emergency we did temporarily make it the law of the land

but what we have now that we didn't have then is strong evidence that whatever emergency we thought we were in is now over so things can go back to normal

if people start dropping dead on the streets again like they were when the pandemic started then we can reassess the situation - in federal court

also worth noting - philadelphia continues to demonstrate how arbitrary and destructive these mandate are

Philadelphia to end mask mandate days after reinstating it

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/mask-ma...ania-covid-19/

"Philadelphia is ending its indoor mask mandate, city health officials said Thursday night, abruptly reversing course just days after people in the city had to start wearing masks again amid a sharp increase in infections. The Board of Health voted Thursday to rescind the mandate, according to the Philadelphia health department, which released a statement that cited "decreasing hospitalizations and a leveling of case counts.""

Business Owners and Residents Speak on Mask Mandate Confusion

https://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news...usion/3214892/

this madness will not end until the people perpetrating it are removed from positions of authority

Reedy Creek is the special tax district of Walt Disney World. It’s essentially its own city. Disney pays taxes to Reedy Creek, which operates a fire department, planning department, sewer treatment plant and public works department

The biggest issue for everyone else is the tax revenue. Disney already pays the same local property taxes as every other landowner. Reedy Creek added its own tax on top of that to pay for its projects. That tax – $163 million per year – is illegal outside of the district. When Reedy Creek goes away, that tax goes away, and Orange and Osceola Counties can’t do anything to get it back. They can’t raise sales taxes or impact fees. So, the counties will have to raise property taxes. They must tax every property equally – not just Disney – and therefore it’s expected that property taxes in Orange County will rise as much as 25% next June. Osceola, much smaller and less wealthy, is still working on its figures, but it's going to be a hit to them as well. Many of that county's residents work for Disney or have jobs derived from WDW. They'll be paying their employer's taxes now.

If it does happen, and could be wrong, but I believe those are Dem counties so they shouldn’t mind more taxes anyway.
