The Rant

Why weren’t the visionaries running Hamilton County able to figure out beforehand that McDonald Farm had limited access to interstates before purchasing it?

Does the tax assessor’s job description require any basic mathematical skills, or is this just another popularity party contest position?

Mayor Kelly, you just raised my 2026 city property taxes by 45.99%! WOW! How about using some of that money to repave Lower Mill Road!

Deer baiting is illegal. Voter baiting also should be illegal, like paving a road only at election time.

Isn’t it amazing that when Mayor Wamp’s behind-closed-door deals come to light, constituents are upset, and he has to explain and backpedal?

This year, I will pay $422.17 more in city/county property taxes. Still cannot understand citizen reluctance to support metro/consolidated/unduplicated local government.

Charlie Kirk said gun deaths were worth it to protect Second Amendment rights. You want that kind of thinking thriving on UTC’s campus?

I attended the radical, lawless, violent Hate America Rally. They had me lower my sign so as not to obscure the traffic signal.

Power to the people!! Thousands joined the march for “No Kings” and, POW, we have no king. Next week is the “No Brains” march.

If you disagree with what’s happening in Washington and don’t protest, remember, “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.”

When close to 6 million Americans get out into the streets to protest injustice, it’s a way of telling everyone there’s a real problem here.

In case you haven’t noticed, the cheese is seriously slipping off of Donald Trump’s cracker. Which means he will become even more irrational and paranoid.

Trump posting on Truth Social a video of himself wearing a crown in a fighter jet bombing a “No Kings” protest with feces is not presidential, but childish. Think about it.

Kings don’t allow protests. Everyone works. No handouts. Kings keep it all. No fancy signs, no government health care, security, nothing. Soros throwing money away. Wasteful.

Where is the freedom of speech the Maga ranter was talking about with the president’s “countering domestic terrorism & organized political violence” order?

No one in America can protest anymore? Geez.

“No Kings” rally. We hate Trump. We hate ICE. We hate free speech. We love abortion. Great message.

Nothing free from the government is free. We who pay taxes provide the funds. The government merely redistributes my income. More people should work. Period.

Progressive political theater is just that — theater. Not real life but acting out life in a bubble. I just see bad actors. No awards there.

So Donald Trump pardoned convicted felon George Santos. It’s great to see that convicted felons have each others’ back!

Trump has hired the crew that robbed the Louvre Museum to help him go after gold in Fort Knox.

Why doesn’t The New York Times article call Trump’s “extraordinary pressure campaign” toward universities (UVA) what it is: EXTORTION.

Trying to disarm Hamas would be like the ATF trying to disarm Georgia or Alabama.

Our Trump government has made it clear that the only Americans that now count in America are the ones with 9 zeros for their wealth.

Four years of asleep-at-the-wheel. Now on the speedway to recovery. Look at nine months with a real executive. Remarkable. Thankful. Grateful.

The Affordable Care Act was not affordable. The Inflation Reduction Act did not reduce inflation. The border is now closed when the border was wide open.

Americans don’t want or need a $200 million White House ballroom. We want and need to be able to afford rent, groceries and health care.
