Weekly Report from Peter Huessy, President of Geostrategic Analysis of Potomac, Maryland, to the Montgomery County people

This weekly report is very brief given the 4^th of July celebration. This report is on the debt incurred over the past four years and prospects for the next decade. Information is from Tom Moore and his Unleash Prosperity daily report with some small edits.

The Congressional Budget Office forecasts an increase in debt considerably more under Biden’s plans vs. those in place in January 2021.

In other words, the CBO now expects the debt to be $7.2 trillion higher than it had projected when Trump left office — all because of Biden’s reckless spending policies. And even though CBO sees tax rate reductions as restricting revenue and tax rate increases as always bringing in the anticipated revenue.

On July 9 the county council is expected to vote on whether to put a referendum on the ballot to allow it to raise property tax rates without an unanimous vote by the Council.  Gordie Brenne of MCTL details why the council should not change the unanimous requirement.

Should the County Council make raising property taxes easier?

By Gail Weiss

Honestly. I wish everyone would just stop with all this ridiculousness. 🤪

First of all, Trump WILL NOT NAME his pick until the convention. Period. 

WHY would he name anyone until the very LATEST point in time possible,  when he can keep them all dancing on the head of a pin, 'auditioning' for the slot by campaigning their asses off for him? 

Answer - he wouldn't, because he's not stupid.

In 1974 I was a Republican candidate for the Montgomery county council. A republican congressman from Maryland, Lawrence Hogan, searched his soul and decided that Richard Nixon should no longer be President, and urged him to resign. I disagreed with that but admired him for speaking his mind. In the end Nixon did resign and Gerald Ford took his place.

We need a Democrat Lawrence Hogan now. We need a Maryland Democrat to suggest to Joe Biden that he resign. I see none on the horizon, not Raskin, not Alsobrook, not Trone. Certainly no Democrat congressman from Maryland will speak the truth to our challenged president.

Who will put the good of the country over politics? Leaders of countries that hate us are watching what we do.

Ladies and gentlemen, step up to the plate - just like Congressman Hogan did 50 years ago. 

After his dismal debate performance the left wing papers, networks, pundits and politicians are all talking about another candidate. Take our survey to see what other voters think. Survey results show when you vote.

Please join us at the Montgomery County Council building at 10:30am this Tuesday July 9^th to show support the 2T term limits petition. This will limit the County Executive to two four-year terms.

As you know, the Council will be pushing a competing bill to confuse voters. We need to turn out in force to show support for our petition. 2T t-shirts will be provided at the hearing.

They will also be discussing removal of the Flicker amendment that will make it easier to raise taxes.

Giving up one hour of your time will help convince the Council of our resolve to get term limits for the County Executive.

Also – Save the Date – Tuesday July 16 when public hearings will be held.

"OK Folks, I've been voted out of the f---king Congress. It's just racism, the MAGA Republicans and the Jews. I'll be back"

We tease the Democrats and sometimes we just don't understand them!

Single Party Government with no diversity of thought leads to the majority ignoring the wishes of the voters.

The all-Democrat Montgomery County Council learned a few years ago how to obfuscate the wishes of the voters and halt any changes in our County Constitution, the Charter.  When the voters, no matter how many thousand voters, petition the county to have a referendum to revise rules they don't like - the Democrat politicians add their own referendum - meant to stop any change. It confuses the heck out of most of the voters and end's up scuttling change for the better.

They're doing it again with the Two Term Amendment limiting the County Executive to an 8 year reign - just like the President and the Governor. But wait, there's more. Remember the popular amendment to require the whole Council to vote to raise your taxes? Too much they say, and they want to reduce the threshold to a majority...and they can do it.

No matter how many thousands of County voters want a change the Single Party Government can compete against them and win. Unfair you say? Let the people decide you say? Well, that's OK with them if the people decide the way they want them to vote.

Watch this video and tell me if you want to encourage more taxes, more lifetime politicians, and more ignoring of the voters' intent. And tell me what you think. It's OK, we're Republicans. We actually listen.

We tease the Democrats, 'cause we love 'em!
