Mock Impeachment Hearing is being attempted with no right to a fair trial. The witness (whistle blower) loses all credibility if they cannot be cross examined by President’s Attorneys. They can’t keep a witness anonymous, they must be cross examined. Pelosi and Schiff are trying to have private committee impeachment, not by law and order, not by the Constitution. The people won’t stand for it!
Now another second whistle blower comes forward and this person is suspect to have been coached by two of Representative Adam B. Schiff’s former employees. Schiff was ask by a reporter on national TV “Have you talked to the Whistle Blower?” He said “no, but I would like to”. It came out later he had lied and had talked to the witness. The witness needs to be cross examined under oath.
Meanwhile two Giuliani associates arrested for violating campaign finance rules. Igor Fruman and Lev Parnas have been detained and charged with making $325,000 in illegal straw donations to a Trump super PAC, as well as giving $15,000 to a second committee, according to the indictment. Both men are expected to appear in federal court in Virginia. Continue reading

For what seems like decades, excited environmentalists have been pitching insect-based foods as the next major trend in agriculture. The upsides to insect protein are clear. Producing it requires roughly one-tenth the land of other meat sources, and insect farming is inherently more efficient (think about how big a cow is, and then visualize a mealworm).
So far, environmentalists have been wrong about adoption—clearly, most people aren’t buying bug protein at the supermarket—but this hype cycle seems different. Investors and founders are getting more deeply involved.
Ynsect, a France-based company focused on producing insect proteins for pet and other animal foods, raised a $150 million Series C in February. AgriProtein, another insect protein company, raised $105 million in June of 2018. InnovaFeed, a France-based insect protein company, raised a roughly $43 million round this August. Continue reading
OCALA, Fla.-Marion County is continuing to see an increase in cases of hepatitis A locally and wants to encourage residents to get vaccinated for the virus. To help, the Department of Health in Marion County is holding its second drive-through hepatitis A vaccination event on Saturday, Nov. 2, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at its Ocala office (1801 SE 32nd Ave.). Anyone who would like to receive the hepatitis A vaccine can come to the event to get the shot for free.
The hepatitis A vaccine is a two-series shot, with each dose given six months apart. The first shot provides 95 percent protection, but both shots are needed to provide long-term protection. This means individuals who obtained their first hepatitis A shot at the department’s April drive-through event should come to the Nov. 2 event to complete the shot series.
The department recommends that individuals who are either high-risk for contracting the virus or high-risk for serious complications from the virus get vaccinated. This includes (but isn’t limited to) individuals who: Continue reading

The equine industry is a really big deal here in the Horse Capital of the World. In fact, it is worth over $2.6 billion a year in the Ocala Metro and our public and private leadership appreciates the importance of this industry to our community.
A few years ago, the CEP commissioned a study showing the incredible number of jobs and revenue created in the Ocala area by the horse world. With this study, came a new realization of a need to find ways to bring the horse world and the non-horse world together. The CEP began its Equine Engagement Initiative with this goal in mind.
A new project from this initiative is a partnership between the CEP and the City. Bronze plaques will be created and placed in the new or re-done sidewalks downtown to celebrate a variety of horse breeds. The plaques will name thoroughbreds or other breeds who were either born here or who had strong ties and connections to this area. Perhaps, they were trained here or spent some major part of their lives here on one of the farms. Any horse born, weaned, conditioned, competed, trained or who learned to be a racehorse here, could be eligible for a plaque or a brick. It was decided an App would play a major role in sharing the details with visitors, so that the famous horses’ names could be located on this App and interested parties could learn all about the equine history and how these horses were tied to the area. Over then next year or so, one should start to see this plaques around the square. Continue reading
Friends,
As the month closes, we will be well into our final few weeks of committee meetings before the 2020 Legislative Session begins in January. This leadership in Tallahassee is very talented, energetic and committed to making Florida the best place to live, work and raise a family. We have you, the voter, to thank for sending us these leaders and it is quite humbling to be part of this great process that shapes policy for 20 million residents and millions more visitors. We do not have a perfect system, but it is so much better than anything they have anywhere else in the world. We have gotten to work on a lot great ideas and proposals so far, and it is exciting to be able to share a few of those things with you today.
Earlier this year, we filed SB 498 Consumer Protection. This legislation will crack down on unlicensed vendors who have been predominately preying on people living in our senior communities, but their reach is not just limited to them and it is becoming a state-wide issue. These are vendors that typically show up at your front door, promise a service, take your deposit and either never return, or only partially complete the job. This legislation would help put a stop to these dishonest practices. Continue reading

Columns of ‘numbers’, like this one, are hard to write and boring read. But, sometimes it’s worth the effort.
Since ‘Day-One’, President Trump has tried to cut foreign aid.
He told the UN General Assembly, “Moving forward, we are only going to give foreign aid to those who respect us and, frankly, are our friends.”
Unfortunately Congress (Democrats), who control federal funding, refuse stop the export of American Tax-Payers money to all kinds of foreign countries – Friend & Foe alike.
Did you know that, Congress gives away over $50 BILLION of Tax-Payers money by way of so-called ‘Foreign Aid’?
A concerned citizen might ask “Why?” Continue reading

The American hunter is the largest army in the World! Texas Gun owners is the largest army in the world by itself. I think it’s safe to say there are millions of armed Americans ready to defend their homes and their country. That is why we are not invaded. They will try to invade from within (politically). Wisconsin hunters by itself has 600,000 gun owners, Pennsylvania has 750,000, Michigan has 700,000.
That is why they want to take our guns. One of the reasons they want Socialism, Government Health care is so they can get the American people dependent on the Government (offer free stuff), then they will try to take our guns. At that point they will start indoctrinating the youth. It already started in a small way. The wealthy will leave this country because they are being taxed to the extreme. Next the government runs out of other people’s money in a few years and someone from another big country steps in and takes over. Continue reading
