Florida Governor Ron DeSantis was on “Sunday Morning Futures” with host Maria Bartiromo to talk about tax cuts for homeowners. The Governor also discussed the State’s budget and the need for responsible spending to keep taxes low.

The State of Florida has become an economically very desirable place for people who want to lower their tax burden.

The video opens up with New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani talking to a crowd about property and ownership. He has been a strong advocate of Socialist policies.

“In Florida, Governor Ron DeSantis is proposing property tax relief for residents that would raise the homestead exemption from 50 thousand dollars, to 250 thousand, which he says would eliminate property taxes for some 60 percent of Florida homeowners,” Bartiromo said.

“What a contrast looking at what you are doing in Florida and what they are doing in New York. Walk us through your housing plan and why this exemption lift is so important in terms of property values and taxes,” Bartiromo said.

“At the state level, we are one of the lowest, if not lowest tax states in the country. No income tax, generous exemption on our sales tax for core items,” DeSantis said.

“Our spending has reflected it. I’m gonna sign a budget later this month or next month that will represent four straight years of spending reductions in the state of Florida,” DeSantis said.

“At the local level, which is where the property tax revenue goes, we’ve gone from local governments taking 32 billion dollars in 2019 in taxes to now 60 billion dollars. That’s almost a 100 percent increase in revenue,” Desantis said.

“Part of it is people have moved here. Part of it is that property values have gone up, but homeowners need relief, and so, it’s my view that if you are a Florida resident and you have a homestead, we want that to be tax free,” DeSantis continued.

“This is really a historic opportunity to have more money in people’s pockets and to actually have their home be there private property that the government just can’t use as a piggy bank,” DeSantis explained.

“Where are you getting the money to fund government and everything else? All the other services?” Bartiromo asked.

“We are focusing on homestead. Obviously, they tax property that are non-homestead. Residential, Airbnb, Canadian Snowbirds, commercial. That’s a lot of money that they have. And so even if we eliminated homestead revenue entirely, that would just put their budgets back to like 2021, 2022 levels,” DeSantis said.

“I think they should start figuring out ways to change their spending so that taxpayers’ benefit,” DeSantis said.

“However, in our proposal because we have surplus at the state level, we are creating a fund that will be able to issue grants to local governments,” DeSantis continued.

Fox News has gone viral after utilizing a devastating split screen regarding New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherill and the ongoing riots in Newark, which will remind some of the images from the George Floyd riots back in the Summer of 2020.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, the protests outside the ICE detention facility in Newark have spiraled into chaos.

Demonstrators have confronted law enforcement, federal officers have been targeted, journalists have faced hostility, and authorities have been forced to respond as crowds escalated near the facility.

The Gateway Pundit also revealed that independent journalist Nick Sortor, who blew the lid off years of taxpayers’ abuse at the hands of Somali fraudsters, infiltrated an Antifa camp at the Newark, New Jersey, ICE protests.

As he moved through the camp, he found tens of thousands of dollars’ worth of equipment, food, and even riot gear. Hot meals are delivered every hour. Clearly, there is a massive, shadowy infrastructure behind the movement that is providing funding.

When one combines this with the open encouragement of Democrat politicians to bully ICE agents, it’s no wonder that Antifa is so emboldened.

During a Saturday press conference, Sherill begged the Antifa protesters to “bring the temperature down” and to protest “peacefully.”

Then, she vowed to work toward “better conditions at Delaney Hall” until it was closed for good.

But while Sherill was ranting, a Fox News producer put up a devastating split screen showing exactly what the New Jersey Governor was presiding over.

In the split screen, one can see agitators getting violent with law enforcement officers and throwing projectiles.

Smoke bombs are also deployed.

How could she not know?

Scotland’s former First Minister Nicola Sturgeon wants Scots to believe she is just a victim of her (now estranged) husband’s crimes, like everyone else.

She is ‘defiantly’ rejecting any blame Sunday for Peter Murrell’s embezzlement of Scottish National Party funds, and insisting she wouldn’t apologize ‘for his crimes’.

Needless to say, what the press calls ‘party funds’ are actually donor and (very probably) taxpayer money.

Associated Press reported:

“Sturgeon told the BBC that she felt betrayed by the actions of her husband, Peter Murrell, who last week pleaded guilty to stealing more than 400,000 pounds ($540,000) from the SNP to fund a lavish lifestyle when he was the party’s chief executive. She consistently denied having any knowledge of his crimes.

‘I am not responsible for the crimes that my former husband committed’, she told the BBC. ‘I’m not going to apologize for somebody else’s crimes’.”

Sturgeon’s is facing ‘widespread disbelief’ about her previous statements that she knew nothing about Murrell’s crimes, to which she benefited.

She admitted that it was a mistake to allow her husband to remain chief executive of the SNP after she became party leader, in 2014.

“’Of course, with hindsight, I wish that I could go back and take a different decision’, she said.

Murrell’s plea capped a five-year police investigation of the SNP, which has led Scotland’s semiautonomous government for almost two decades while campaigning for the country to break away from the United Kingdom.”

There needs to be a Parliamentary Inquiry into the SNP theft scandal.

Nicola Sturgeon said previously she fully cooperated with the police. Now it turns out she “no commented” all the police questions and only gave a written statement.

The Telegraph reported:

“In an interview on the BBC’s Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg program, Ms. Sturgeon said: ‘For my own sake, but for the sake of people out there, a lot of women who end up finding themselves blamed for the actions of the men in their lives, I’m not going to contribute to that kind of sense that I am responsible for somebody else’s crimes’.

‘I will take responsibility for the things I do, the decisions I make. I’m sitting here with you right now, answering questions because I believe strongly in that accountability’. But I am not responsible for the crimes that my former husband committed and I’m not going to apologize for somebody else’s crimes.””

On Friday, The Gateway Pundit reported that President Trump held a meeting with advisors in the Situation Room to discuss the ongoing war with Iran, where he said he would “make a final determination” and potentially sign a deal.

The President announced a “largely negotiated” framework for a 60-day “memorandum of understanding” (MOU) last weekend. Included in the plan is a 60-day ceasefire, the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, concessions from Iran on nuclear enrichment, and an Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire.

A deal was not finalized, and President Trump requested amendments to the deal during the Situation Room meeting.

Although Iranian officials have denied ever approving a deal, the chaos in the country continues to unfold, and a source claimed that Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian has submitted his resignation letter to the Office of the Supreme Leader.

Fox News reports: 

Citing a source, Iran International reported Sunday that the letter stated the president and his government had been excluded from major decision-making in Iran.

The report also said the ensuing vacuum had allowed hard-line factions within the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to take control of key affairs.

In the letter, Pezeshkian reportedly wrote that, under such circumstances, he is unable to govern effectively or fulfill his legal responsibilities and, for that reason, requested to step down immediately.

Pezeshkian, however, is denying the claim.

Iran International English shares, “President Masoud Pezeshkian has not resigned and continues to carry out his duties, IRGC-affiliated Tasnim News Agency reported, citing an informed government source, denying an Iran International report that he had sought to step down.”

“Separately, Seyed Mehdi Tabatabaei, deputy head of communications and information at the president’s office, dismissed the Iran International report in a post on X and said Pezeshkian would not step back from serving the people.”

Pezeshkian’s leadership has come under consistent scrutiny.

A few weeks ago, he caused tension within a country trying to create a posture of strength by suggesting, during a meeting of the Government Information Council, which was televised by Iranian media, that Iran has suffered ‘harm’ from US attacks.

Further, he urged officials to ‘face reality.’

Merz is paying the price for being the most unpopular Chancellor in German history.

The constant feature of the Euro-Globalist ‘leaders’ nowadays is dismal poll numbers: they cling to power even though a vast majority of voters would rather have them go.

But a new development, first in the UK and now in Germany, is that the Labour and now the CDU parties are starting to work on ‘palace coups’ to change leaders without calling early elections that they’d be destined to lose.

So, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, completing one year in power, watches as his party grooms a younger, more popular rival ‘from the industrial heartlands’ that – they think – can unite the German voters.

Of course, the problem with Merz is not his disagreeable character or his nasty comments, but the Globalist, suicidal public policies emanating from Brussels that the CDU follows.

Germany’s CDU is reportedly holding private discussions about replacing Chancellor Merz.

Names being floated: North Rhine-Westphalia premier Hendrik Wüst, Hesse governor Boris Rhein, and Saxony premier Michael Kretschmer.

The Telegraph reported:

“The German chancellor has been beset by rumors this week that members of his own party are plotting to remove him.

Senior figures within the centre-Right Christian Democratic Union (CDU) have become so frustrated with Mr Merz’s performance that they are privately discussing whether he should be replaced before the next federal election, several German newspapers are reporting.”

“With the CDU slipping ever further behind the hard-Right AfD in national polls – and 71 per cent of Germans thinking Mr. Merz is doing a bad job – MPs have openly questioned the Chancellor’s ability to reverse the party’s fortunes.

One name keeps surfacing as a potential successor: Hendrik Wüst, the telegenic premier of North Rhine-Westphalia, who is the most popular figure in the party.”

Wüst hasn’t been affected by the trend of collapsing CDU support. He is set to be easily reelected in the North Rhine-Westphalia state.

While he denies plotting against Merz, his ambition to be a future chancellor is well known.
