  1. Not to rehash Election Day lead up and day of thread, but remove Florida from any state wide dem prospects. It’s dead red.
  2. Also, the panic in DC extends to big investment groups who own big time real estate there. If Trump does indeed “decentralize” federal offices, the real estate… office, apartment, retail, hotel, even residential, will crater.
  3. Worth a read from trump team part 1, but really comes into focus with musk https://www.williamsparker.com/insights/want-diversify-appreciated-asset-position-without-paying-capital-gains-tax-take-federal-government-job-conflict-interest/
  4. Considering the stereotype Cletus of Appalachia pours gallons of Mountain Dew down his kids gullets and doesn’t believe in modern medicine, somebody needs to be the none Q adult.
  5. Let’s not be greedy these days.
  6. It’s literally in the fucking STATE constitution. A general diffusion of knowledge being essential to the preservation of the liberties and rights of the people, it shall be the duty of the Legislature of the State to establish and make suitable provision for the support and maintenance of an efficient system of public free schools.
  7. I need 8k points for companion by yr end. If I buy a flight on my card for February travel then cancel in Jan/take that money as southwest credit toward future flight, will that work?
  8. Patrick/Bettencourt ain’t letting the prop tax system die. Patrick specifically called for a study of what the impact would be this yr and when the findings were presented to cmte, that notion was pretty much laughed out of the room. It was something to the effect of a 23% sales tax. what well prob see in the next session is a continuing of the most recent cuts/caps/compeession with maybe a little more tacked on (compression of isd rates and bump on homestead exemption). The 27 session could see more change tho as the 20% annual cap on non homestead real property will have its pilot program completed and stats/data. I have a very hard time seeing caps rolled out to large commercial property though as that just shifts the burden back on homeowners.
  9. why is steel different from the material costs in the first paragraph?
  10. Can somebody explain or point me in the direction of this breakdown. It’s 50% of all NEW city rev… so does that mean they look at the 2024 revenue and anything above that in the future is chopped in half with pensions getting one half? If so Dallas is so boned with the lege’s annual rev caps already in place.
  11. But he makes up for it with just a sip
  12. Hence why I posted in this thread
  13. Not to go brisket but there’s a 0% chance his replacement is an improvement.
  14. Word around Abbott campfire that Tx is gonna need to find a new AG in the next few mos.
  15. Rosen up in flames in Nevada. Kari Fuvkin lake… is very much alive in AZ. Unfuckingreal
  16. Ygifs was pretty damn plugged into UT and campus political movements, I remember him talking about bitch ass Charlie Kirk’s movement from a few yrs ago and how it was starting to make serious inroads. Looks like the harvest arrived.
  17. Holy fuckin shit if you think the national scene was a bloodbath, you have no idea what that means until you dig into the state level results. Disastrous doesn’t begin to describe it.
  18. Plus that wisky vote, Dane county with UW has been lighting it the fuck up.
  19. And here I was thinking nothing could fuck this thread up more than chilis chat, then along comes hook to go Charlie Kirk in here on fuckin Election Day
  20. ATL poster on here says Cherokee, Forsyth, and Hall Counties, none will flip, but they are big enough to matter while small enough to be some of the earlier ones to report. If any of these, and of course preferably all of them report slippages in R support it will mean a couple of things, the first being that Trump most likely can't win in Georgia, and the second being that just how big the drift is from Trump.
  21. You post like the Yankees field
  22. Unless there’s monster crossover in az, not digging the position of Harris. Massive holes in both Nv and az, hopefully both are immaterial
  23. He’s angling for energy secretary
