I see trouble
State senator says Gov. DeSantis needs to ‘come home,’ call special session to address property insurance crisis (news4jax.com)

Senator Tracie Davis said lawmakers need to go back to Tallahassee as soon as possible because she said the new property insurance legislation signed last December provided insurance companies with support and stability but did nothing to immediately address the exponential growth in the amount Floridians pay for property insurance.

“Governor, come home and take care of your state. We all know that he’s running for president, but we have real problems, real issues, and the crisis with property insurance,” Davis said.

Davis wants a commitment from DeSantis that more will be done this summer to help Floridians who are struggling to pay their property insurance bill.

News4JAX Viewer Kelly Morgan is feeling the pinch and said her premium went from $1,800 to $6,600 dollars a year.

Viewer Sharon Glover told News4JAX, “Our homeowner insurance increased $7,000…for a total of $10,600 for one year.”

“That’s why the legislature needs to do something to solve this problem,” Davis said. “We have options out there, but Floridians are running out of the options they have.

Just what the doctor ordered
Jesse Watters offers Republicans a ‘Black outreach plan’ - Alternet.org

“Would you like to hear the Jesse Watters Black Outreach Plan?” Watters asked his four colleagues, who chuckled at the question.

“Number one. The Republican Party has to remind everyone that the Republican Party fought to free the slaves. That tells the truth about the history of this country, and it puts the Democrats in a very awkward position,” Watters said.

“I would encourage Black Americans to leave the cities,” Watters continued. “These cities, the air is not clean. The quarters are cramped. There’s crime. Get some fresh air. You can go to Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, Colorado. You could get cheap land. You get a beautiful house, and what comes with that? I’ll tell you what comes with that. Better health. You’re walking, you’re outside. It’s cleaner. You know, there’s no violence around there, and better schools are out there. You’re not in these inner-city public schools. You also have access to guns. They won’t let you have a gun in Philly. They won’t let you have a gun in New York. It’s almost impossible to do that. So you can exercise your Second Amendment, and then you hit the schools, obviously, school choice.”

Some imperfect things are great when cheap. A cheap hotdog is great. An expensive hotdog is absurd. Cheap Florida has some real appeal. Expensive Florida is nuts.

Insurance rates for school districts in our state have soared due to the losses that the carriers have suffered elsewhere.

This problem is not limited to states like Florida, California, etc.

Maybe Jesse Waters will come to Alabama so he can see just how wonderful the rural parts of our state are, with their healthful environs and fine public schools. If only Black people knew!

We could be sprouting Black Republicans overnight!
