"AFFORDABLE HOUSING" IN A "SANCTUARY COUNTY?"
What was he thinking?
By Lori Jaffe
In 2021, County Executive Marc Elrich ran for re-election touting his work to protect affordable housing in MoCo. And three years later, at his October 10th Media Briefing, (23:50) he is still talking about the problem. Fighting for his political life after decades of failed policies, Elrich has come out against the Attainable Housing Strategies Initiative. Although presented as an attempt to “be part of the solution to the county’s housing woes,” this initiative is essentially an attempt by the Planning Board and Council to put MoCo into compliance with the United Nation’s 15-Minute City concept. But Elrich’s 2019 “Promoting Community Trust” sanctuary policy made the county’s affordable housing crisis even worse. Early Voting starts next week. Be sure to send a message to Mr. Elrich – Vote For Question A to hold him to two terms.

VOTE EARLY FOR POSITIVE CHANGE
Hard work, common sense and patriotism is making a comeback. I can feel the desire for a change, back to normalcy, respect and dignity. Even here in bluest of the blue Montgomery County I meet folks who are just fed up with the inability to get ahead. Grocery bills, energy bills, random crime, disrespect between neighbors and a sense for the return to normalcy.
We have the best candidates, folks have seen the disruption of the last four years, both nationally and locally, and they want control of their own lives back. They’re tired of being told what car they can drive, whether they can be warm in the winter, how guilty they should feel and whether their kids belong to them or the union teachers at their local school.

I know you’ve heard it too, it’s so important to have a civil and frank conversation with your family and neighbors, and they’ll most often agree (often ever so quietly – remember, we’re still a one Party State!)
I can feel the positive change coming. Thanks for voting, get your vote in NOW, don’t wait til the end when something comes up and you regret not voting.
I’ll celebrate with you after the election. We’ll deserve it, both sides, all America and all of MoCo is ready for a change. Let’s make it happen.
Hope to see you in person soon!

KENNEDY BACKS TRUMP
Sixteen months ago, in April of 2023, I launched my campaign for president of the United States. I began this journey as a Democrat, which is the party of my father, and my uncle. It is the party which I pledge my own allegiance to. Long before I was old enough to vote, I attended my first democratic convention at the age of six in 1960, and back then, the Democrats were the champions of the Constitution and of civil rights.
The Democrats stood against authoritarianism, against censorship, against colonialism, imperialism, and unjust wars. We were the party of labor, of the working class. The Democrats were the party of government transparency and the champion of the environment. Our party was the bulwark against big money interests and corporate power. True to its name, it was the party of democracy.
As you know, I left that party in October because it had departed so dramatically from the core values that I grew up with. It had become the party of war, censorship, corruption, Big Pharma, big tech, big ag and big money when it abandoned democracy by canceling the primary to conceal the cognitive decline of the sitting president, I left the party to run as an independent.

Katja Bullock, Nahid and Issa Khozeimeh & Diana Waterman
By Dwight Patel
It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of Diana Waterman, a pillar of Maryland’s Republican Party, a tireless leader, and a dear friend to many. Diana’s legacy spans nearly two decades of service, during which she helped shape the direction of the Maryland GOP and championed the conservative cause with unwavering dedication. Her passing leaves a void that will be hard to fill, but her impact will be felt for generations to come.
Diana’s journey in Maryland Republican politics began with her role as a founding member of the Chesapeake Republican Women, where she served as Treasurer and twice as President. From those early days, she exhibited the qualities that would define her career: resilience, integrity, and an ability to connect with people on a personal level. Her leadership within the Maryland Republican Party was exemplary. She served as 1st Vice Chair from 2010 to 2013 and later as Chair from 2013 to 2017. In every role, Diana brought a level of professionalism, compassion, and dedication that set her apart.
