🚨Florida CFO Blaise Ingoglia says FAFO Audits of School Boards across Florida ARE COMING! Says budgets have been going up EXPONENTIALLY with administrators being OVERPAID and teachers being SHAFTED like in Broward. “We are in the process of gathering information from school boards across the state of Florida, and we are putting into context not only the growth in general government, but the growth in school board budgets over time. What we have seen, generally is that the amount of the budgets for school districts are going up EXPONENTIALLY, similar to what we're seeing in general government. And the scary part about that is what we are seeing is that the number of administrators that we are seeing is really skyrocketing, and the pay for the administrators are skyrocketing. When the teacher pay is actually flatlining, not going up anywhere it needs to be, but seems to be finding student populations. So our job is to put that all into context of how a school board budgets are growing relative to the population that they serve, which is the students. I personally believe, and again, this is a general statement, but I believe this stands true against all the school districts. I believe that there is enough room in these school board budgets to cut their budget by cutting a lot of the fat and still give teachers pretty decent raises. And anyone who hasn't, who thinks that we can't, hasn't even tried to put pen to paper. It CAN be done, it's just a WILL, a political will, and a policy will to get it done.”

Narcoterrorist & illegitimate Dictator Nicolas Maduro has finally been captured. The Venezuelan people and the families of loved ones victimized have anxiously awaited this day. Thanks to @POTUS and the hard work of law enforcement, prosecutors and service men and women, a new day has come.

Jacksonville Jaguars star Travis Hunter responds to reporter who asked him why he got baptized before his game. "It's a crazy question. Why did I get baptized? It's Sunday, it's God's day, and I've been planning to get baptized for a minute." "I want to change my life, I want to become a better man..." "It means a lot, you know, becoming a better man, leaving my old flesh and just becoming the new Travis." Great answer.

In-state tuition has not gone up a penny since I’ve been governor. We have the lowest tuition in the nation — and our Bright Futures program allows many FL residents to go for free (or at a greatly reduced rate). The result is that almost 80% of undergrads at Florida’s state universities carry no debt.

Here is my last point on Kimmel. If Kimmel came on and apologized like this the day after his remarks he probably wouldn’t have been suspended. But by all accounts he wanted to double down. Again for the billionth time this isn’t a free speech issue. He works for Mickey Mouse on NETWORK TV. Nobody said he was going to jail. He was dealing with the consequences of making off color jokes about the murder of a guy who meant a ton to a ton of people and blamed it on the very people who love him the most before the body was even cold. So yeah there was outrage that Mickey had to deal with. Then the pendulum swung the other way and they put him back on air. Either way it was never a free speech issue. When you work for somebody else and you offend a ton of people you deal with the consequences. Him framing this as free speech is a joke.

Local property taxes are crushing so many homeowners. We need to provide relief. And we need to embrace an important principle: truly owning your own home means your property shouldn’t be a piggy bank for local governments to extract revenue. Homestead properties of Florida residents should be exempt from property taxes.
I unequivocally stand with @GovRonDeSantis on property tax relief. I’ve been told things were too hard many times. Let’s do the work and get this done.
