Melby Minute - Be Very Afraid

BE AFRAID, BE VERY AFRAID

By Dennis Brent Melby

Our elected officials say “The Republicans are coming to get you – but WE’LL PROTECT YOU. Be afraid…be very afraid!”

Yep, fear is a powerful weapon, and the one-party government here is putting teeth in the fear hoax as they sell it to the public.

Who are the monsters? The elected government in Washington, of course. Why run on local issues when the far-left media will help you to carry on a war of fear. Raise taxes, close streets, let the schools founder but tell folks, ”the government is coming for you, for black and brown people, for folks who speak Spanish, for literally anyone with an accent.” That’s the narrative and the left eat it up.

Just recently they’ve decided that the County Council's leaf blower ban is racist because they think most maintenance staffers are Hispanic (or Lantinx  as they deridedly call them). So they modified the ban so the neighbors who they charged with turning in these hard workers could not snap pictures of the “offenders” so that the government couldn’t comb through the records and arrest the one’s who looked Hispanic. I’m not making this up.

But they go further! What else to make folks fearful?

Chairman's Message

Montgomery County’s Transparency Problem

The Montgomery County Council has once again demonstrated a troubling disregard for transparency and public engagement, this time in the process of filling the remainder of Councilmember Gabe Albornoz’s term. Despite receiving 67 applications, the Council has offered residents virtually no insight into how those candidates were evaluated or why only three were ultimately selected for public consideration. I find this suspicious.

A Happy Holiday Menu for You

(1)

By Lori Jaffe

A number of you have asked for a holiday menu for the politically inclined. Here, with apologies to Julia Childs, are some suggestions. Enjoy your holidays!

Starters

Jawan-dough Soup – This soup is named for Will Jawando, who may have used federal campaign money to benefit his County Executive campaign. This spicy soup has a distinctive smoky flavor, because where there’s smoke, there’s fire.

Control MoCo Spending

SAME OLD SAME OLD

Democrat Candidates for County Executive at Montgomery County Civic Federation Forum
The current candidates for County Executive show no desire to improve efficiency or reduce taxes in Montgomery County.
These politicians have been in office for at least seven years, through both the Trump and Biden administrations. Marc Elrich has been in office for 20 years. The County’s economic challenges stem from decisions made locally by the County Executive and County Council. County-level issues are shaped overwhelmingly by:
• Local leadership
• County Council priorities
• Zoning, taxes, and the regulatory environment
• CIP decisions
• Economic development strategy

 


We Back The Blue

Yes, the MoCo Republicans still back the blue.
