Dunnellon Florida: Saying a child has the right to school choice is BS. It seems  Dunnellon Elementary has denied a kindergarten student from attending next year for being tardy four times. The child tested two grade levels above his current school level. Informing him he can’t come back was the choice of the Elementary school principal. He can’t go to Dunnellon Elementary next year, he must go to Romeo by choice of the school system. The school system has drawn an imaginary line and if you live on the other side of that line, you come from another world. You have to go to the school THEY CHOOSE!! This student lives 80 acres over the line on a small farm that has been in the family 53 years.  This is a form of traumatizing children. I tried many times to talk to someone and they keep closing me out, telling me it’s up to the principal of the school, I thought it was up to the state / Governor / right of choice law.

The statue honoring Molly, of Molly’s Law, was unveiled near the Ocala City Hall.

Sculpted by Nilda Comas, the statue memorializes Molly, who passed away earlier this year at the age of 15. Molly suffered severe abuse at the hands of a previous owner, and her experience was the inspiration behind the Animal Abuser Registry. The law passed in 2016 that identifies any offender convicted of an animal abuse crime, allowing citizens, pet sellers, and rescues to verify abusers.

Since her rescue, Molly lived with Lilly Baron, president of SPCA of Ocala, who was on hand this morning to commemorate her friend. Several city, county and state officials were there to remember Molly and the impact she had on our community.

WOW I am not surprised about the findings of the Durham Report. I suspected what happened but by Durham proving it was unexpected and showing us a unredacted copy. Remember it was Hillary Clinton that started all this, then the FBI and DOJ did not prove it wrong but endorsed it. I will never forget Nancy Pelosi as speaker standing before the House and said “Donald Trump will never become President again NO MATTER WHAT IT TAKES!” I take that very serious. So we have Nancy Pelosi and Hillary Clinton, Adam Schift and more with the same agenda! Then the FBI and the DOJ. I am not hearing as much about the DOJ, I wonder why?

No matter what you think Donald Trump had the election stolen from him! The film 2,000 Mules which many refuse to watch prove it was a large effort of people stuffing ballot boxes and they were film doing it! Only a few were brought to justice and prosecuted being charged with stuffing ballot boxes, although they were being filmed by federal camera’s! Continue reading
