🚨Governor DeSantis says there will be a FIVE YEAR WAITING PERIOD before non residents can cash in on property tax elimination under his proposal. “One: It eliminates an incentive for people to flood in here, which it's not something that I think a lot of people are looking for.... show more

🚨Governor DeSantis says property tax elimination will NOT APPLY to new residents! “We also are going to look at how the legislature would implement for people who don't live here yet. I don't want to necessarily have people flood here to claim this! Maybe you got to come, and you got to live, and you got to pay tax like Floridians have been doing for a time. Then you can qualify after you have some skin in the game.”

🚨Governor DeSantis says transplants from other states will have to PAY TAXES FOR FIVE YEARS before they are eligible for property tax elimination under his proposal to prevent mass migration. FLORIDA IS FULL! “If this passes and everyone can just move here and then claim the no tax, well that's not going to make it as good for Floridians. And so what this does is it says if you establish residence after this passes, that we can insist on up to FIVE YEARS of you paying tax under the old system like all the Floridians have been doing for all these years, then you can qualify for what we're doing.”

🚨DeSantis says he wants to help Florida RESIDENTS ONLY with property tax reform. Says foreigners, people who just moved here, rich boomer snow birds and Air B&B’s should still be FULLY TAXED! “I want to help Florida residents with their primary residents. That's what I want. I don't care if somebody moves from Chicago. I don't want to incentivize people to come to claim this. You should have some skin in the game. There's ways we’ve got to structure this so that it's not creating incentives for people to come and to be able to do that.”

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump pushes back on Florida removing all vaccine mandates, including for schoolchildren. He says some vaccines are a must. "I think we have to be careful. You have some vaccines that are so amazing. The Polio vaccine I think is amazing. A lot of people think that COVID [vax] is amazing. You know, there are many people that believe strongly in that." "But you have some vaccines that are so incredible. And I think you have to be very careful when you say that some people don't have to be vaccinated. It's a very tough position." "Initially, I heard about it yesterday. And it's a tough stance. You have vaccines that work. Just pure and simple, they work. They're not controversial at all. And I think those vaccines should be used otherwise some people are going to catch it and they endanger other people. And when you don't have controversy at all, people should take it."

What another AMAZING “coincidence” California had just passed new tax laws, if your home burns down and you don’t rebuild within 2 years (impossible in California) you lose your tax basis. Your property taxes SKYROCKET to the new values of the property “Think about a home that was purchased many years ago for $5 million. Let's say they were paying $65,000 a year in property taxes. Property goes up a lot over time, especially in these areas. Maybe the value today is $30 million. They go to rebuild it. If it was not, if they couldn't transfer the tax basis, you're looking at like $400,000 a year that they would have to pay” “In 2020, California voters approved a bill that basically said that if your house burns down in a fire, you can transfer the tax basis of that property to something that you buy or something that you build. But you only have two years to do it.” So some of the most expensive homes and properties the entire world now will get reassessed to pay maximum property tax values….

🚨 JUST IN: Governor Ron DeSantis CONFIRMS Floridians will get to vote on officially abolishing PROPERTY TAXES statewide so they don't pay rent to the government "We have a tax base of people who aren't Florida residents! Shouldn't we want THEM to pay? And OUR people to have relief? We have the ability to do it!" "This is gonna lead into the ballot initiative for homesteaded Floridians."

🚨 NOW - ERIC TRUMP: "I now live in Florida and you literally have Ron DeSantis who's going around saying we're going to eliminate ALL PROPERTY TAX in the state of Florida." "You know why? Because they're so flush with money based on the fact that you've had so many people from New York and other transplants." "Their budget is so flush with cash that they're able to literally eliminate all people's property tax that are domiciled in the state of Florida, all on the backs of what otherwise would have gone to a great state." "[Zohran Mamdani] needs to be doing the exact opposite thing. New York needs to be cutting taxes. They need to make the most business-friendly environment anywhere in the world." "They should embrace capitalism. They should have the safest streets. They should have the cleanest streets." Eric Trump

Gov. Ron DeSantis says California may be number one but only in all the wrong categories: “We have talked about Florida being number one in so many categories, and he says California is number one. But to be bipartisan, I do have to acknowledge that under Gavin Newsom’s leadership, California is number one in a lot of things. Number one in homelessness, number one in public defecation, number one in tent cities, number one for highest income tax, number one for highest sales tax, number one for highest gas tax, and they have the highest electricity rates in the continental United States. So they are number one in a lot of things—just not the things you would want to be number one in.”

SHOULD GOVERNMENT BE ALLOWED TO TAKE PRIVATE PROPERTY? “People are waking up to the fact that the asset seizure tax is an elimination of private property rights, that fundamentally what you're saying [is] that private property now becomes public property. Because as soon as you give the government the right to collect your post-tax assets through a legislative vote, you are basically saying that you no longer have private property — because at any point in the future the government can vote to say I'm going to take your private property — which is different than an income tax. [An income tax] is when you earn something that you didn't have before, and they take a percentage of your earnings (of your income). The statement now is after you've made your income (it's now your private property) — they can come and take it. And so that is a distinction that has never existed in the United States. And I will make the retort right now to property tax, because people always say to me: ‘what about property tax?’ A property tax is a service fee on a particular, specific asset. The money that is collected provides services for that asset to make it more valuable. So you get roads, infrastructure, policing, fire, schools… All the stuff that comes with property tax makes that property [more valuable]. And you have the option at any point you want to sell that property and stop paying that property tax. You have the option at any point to downgrade your property and get a cheaper property and pay [a lower tax]. And here's the other important point about property tax: it’s uniform. Uniform means that everyone pays the same percentage, the same property tax rate in a county. This asset seizure tax that's being proposed is a demographic tax — meaning that the state or the legislature defines a specific group of individuals (in this case, they're saying anyone with a net worth over a billion dollars) and then they can go and take assets from only that group. That is nonuniform taxation. It means that for the first time we're saying based on the demographics of a person meaning whatever you want to use to define that person (in this case their wealth) — you are going to be treated differently. And that is different than an income tax, because remember when you have graduated income tax rates (and you say high earners get taxed more) — what you're taxing is the earnings, not the individual. You're not looking through to the individual to determine whether or not they're wealthy. All you're doing is looking at the independent earnings amount that's coming in. And so a uniformity clause is supposed to protect people from being demographically discriminated against. And you may roll your hand and be like: ‘Oh, who cares about the billionaires? Eat the rich. That's great.’ But fundamentally, you're giving the government, the legislature, the ability to in the future take any demographic definition they want and go in and take any percentage they want of after-tax property from you. That is why this is so troubling.” david friedberg The All-In Podcast

🚨Governor DeSantis says he was met with MAJOR RESISTANCE from the GOP over getting rid of in-state tuition for illegals. “When I became governor, we had in law in Florida that you could be here illegally and get in-state tuition. And I was like, that is crazy. Under my watch, that's been repealed in Florida. And that should have been repealed a long time ago. It should have never been instituted in the first place, to be honest with you. And so that was not easy victory. If they're running a primary they ask should you give in-state tuition discounts to someone here illegally, they will have to say no, otherwise they will lose the primary. But then somehow when it gets time to do, there's all this behind-the-scenes resistance.”

In today's episode of "you should own nothing and be happy", we have Florida governor Ron DeSantis saying the problem is that old people aren't trading in their bigger homes for smaller homes. He phrases it as a tax issue, but the underlying statement here is he's saying that as you get older you should have to sell your forever home and move to The Villages to get 19 STDs because...reasons? “You’ve got older people that have been in their home for a long time. They've had protection against valuation increases for 30 years. They're not downsizing because if they go from a three or four bedroom home to a condo, the tax basis is going to be so much higher that they can't afford it" Maybe, just maybe Ron, after someone has spent 30 years paying for their home, they should be able to stay in it if they want.

🚨Governor DeSantis says Florida has a problem with boomers refusing to downsize making it impossible for young people to afford homes! “You’ve got older people that have been in their home for a long time. They've had protection against valuation increases for 30 years. They're not downsizing because if they go from a three or four bedroom home to a condo, the tax basis is going to be so much higher that they can't afford it. So that hurts young people having access to be able to do it. So it needs to go on the ballot. It needs to get 60% of the vote, and we'll be working on that through the balance of the year.”

🚨 WOW! Gov. Ron DeSantis just said after his upcoming vetoes, Florida will have REDUCED state spending for 4 years in a row... ...and nearly HALF of ALL state debt has been paid off since 2019 🔥 "Our budget, even though we have MILLIONS of more people than New York State, New York's budget is more than TWICE the size of Florida's budget, and people can ask, where's all that money going?" "And in fact, I'm going to be dealing with our current, our next fiscal year budget. And once I do my vetoes, I will be able to say that we have actually at the state level in Florida reduced spending four years in a row." "Now that's foreign to some of those blue states, but they're quite frankly, aren't very many jurisdictions that are doing it. So we're proud of that. We obviously have a very light tax at the state level, but the one thing that's been tough for people is the property tax." And now property taxes will be largely removed. LFG ☀️

BREAKING: DeSantis hints that he might veto a legislative tax package that includes sales tax relief over property tax relief "Any Florida-last tax package is going to be dead on arrival. We are not going to kneecap our ability to provide you property tax relief just so we can give a little bit of a benefit to Canadian tourists. That is not going to happen. You can take that to the bank." "Is there anyone here that would prefer one quarter of one penny relief to property tax relief?" "I've never seen anything proposed that has so little buy-in. People are not clamoring to give Canadian tourists a tax break."

Today, I was the lone no vote on increasing the fuel revenue indexing tax. Several people talked about how they’ve generated one billion dollars in revenue from this tax. They’ve made that money off the backs of hard-working people in Clark County who are buying gas who have to get to work - they are paying a tax. That’s where the one billion dollars came from. Now they want to extend it for another ten years. But unlike in 2016 when it was passed on the ballot, now they want to do so without a vote of the people. Yes, we need roads and we need people put to work, but it should have been done the correct way — by a vote of the people.
