Last chance, Last dance for We the People to take back OUR government from the Special Interests aka “Developers” and their dim witted and ethically challenged puppet candidates.

Vote NO: KVO; Turner; Culbreath; Metallo; Satcher

Vote FOR: Kruse; McCann; Siddique; Felts; Farrington

OUR Quality of Life depends on defeating the Pedicini / Beruff puppets.

If We the People achieve that, we complete the purge and restore decency by ridding the Commission of the rest of the developer stooges in 2026: Rahn; Ballard and Bearden….all of them no better than the current slate of Developer Puppets.

That’s it in a nutshell, folks. Pretty soon we will find out if the registered Republican voters of Manatee county as hardheaded, uninformed, dimwitted and gullible as SIMWINS thinks we are. Pedicini, Beruff, & KVO are certainly banking $$$ on it! I hope with all my being that we prove them wrong.

I'm proud to divulge that I'm one of those formerly registered democrats who changed their party affiliation solely for the purpose of voting wisely on August 20th. Thanks in part to Commissionar Kruze's information, Scott Farrinngton's information, and the scandalous tactics employed by some of the current board that have recently come to light, as well as the fact-lacking campaigns of most contenders, both incumbent and new comers this election!! HELL NO KVO!! SATCHER, I DONT THINK SO!! CULBREATH, NOT ON MY WATCH!! Special thanks to the SOE worker who submitted the anonymous letter to the press!!

Thank you, George. We appreciate your efforts. This will be, hands down, one of the most important local Manatee County elections of our lifetime. Our voting decisions will affect almost every facet of the life we currently enjoy. It is unbelievable just how much damage this super majority of developer funded commissioners have already done to our county. Sadly, most of this damage occurred after this super majority was voted in and was accomplished in less than a year and a half. Unfortunately, there are still many citizens out there who do not realize how important their vote actually is and that they will effectively be taken to the cleaners and may not be able to afford to live in our county should they choose not to investigate the issues themselves before voting. Today I received one such email from an uninformed source who sent these developer funded recommendations out to a group of trusted members. Not only did they not realize what damage has already been done to our county, but they do not realize that our entire election process has been polluted and is in jeopardy because of the terrible appointment of Satcher to SOE. They have no idea that residents no longer have a voice in our community, nor are they aware of the vast amount of knowledge that has been lost by the employees they have forced out. They are unaware of the amount of reserves that have been spent or given away wastefully at the taxpayers’ expense. Unfortunately, their sources (area church pastors) also do not realize the future all residents will face because of their lack of knowledge concerning the real issues our in community. These community leaders are unaware that the agenda they are pushing onto their congregation has been based on lies. If you attend or belong to a local church or other organization, please direct those members to accurate local and fact checked new sources asap.

As a psychotherapist, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and a professional in the study of psychology, I am often asked if the question of good and evil is legitimate, scientifically. Isn't it a religious or philosophical notion, not suitable for scientific examination?

In psychiatry and clinical psychology, there are mental disorders formerly called "sociopathy" and "psychopathy", now called "personality disorders" (formerly called "character disorders".) Informally, laypersons call them people of low character or morals, evil. Clinically, they are coded as personality disorders, the worst being "Antisocial Personality Disorder". These are the Ted Bundys, Hitlers and Donald Trumps of the world, dishonest and malicious, against society and other people, harmful to one degree or another. They are what we call evil. Unlike mental illnesses, medication does not repair what is broken in them. They are too often unchangeable. They are dishonest, manipulative, selfish to the extreme, harmful to others, without empathy, remorse or conscience.

Marc is concerned about who we hand control of the government to, and to a degree, control of our lives. He reveals people running for political office who are dishonest, liars, frauds, selfish and intentionally harmful to the community and the voters when it serves their selfish purposes. They are without decent morals, ethics or conscience. They are filled with ill will. He reveals the same about people who finance their selfish pursuits. He compares them with those of good will, who seek to serve the community and others while they pursue their own goals. George Kruse says our choice at the ballot box is between good and evil. He's right.

Good and evil are real things. We need to choose which side we are on. We will think and act in accordance with that choice. Conscience, knowing good from evil in our soul, if we have one, can guide us.

You had me UNTIL your DJT comment. Is the non-performing, useless "border czar" with questionable morals your choice to lead us? There is real evil when a woman has to sleep her way to a job. There is a name for that disgusting behavior. Prove me wrong.

Donald Trump is a sociopath. That clinical opinion, shared by most mental health professionals, has nothing to do with politics. I will probably vote in the upcoming election, but it will never be for the sociopath, fraud and traitor Trump, or anyone who supports him. I am not enthusiastic about anyone who is running, but I wonder about your claim of about a woman who has to sleep her way to a job. Please post some vetted evidence to support your claim. Here's some evidence about Trump's sociopathy: https://www.amazon.com/Dangerous-Case-Donald-Trump-Psychiatrists-dp-1250212863/dp/1250212863/ref=dp_ob_title_bk

There is lots more available if you want it.

Trump is your best option. Kamala is such a failure. She will fail you more than you can imagine. Especially if you have kids and grandkids. She and her commie vp pick will make their lives miserable.

Sir, people listen to me because I’m a sane person. Sane people listen to one another. We don’t lash out at one another.

I’m not impressed by you.

You’re probably intelligent, but your mental illness overrides your ability to think clearly and critically, and to communicate with rationality.

See how I, “diagnosed,” you without sitting down with you? It’s the Trump era of professional psychotherapy.🥱

I imagine you have also diagnosed, until a month ago, biden as fully cognizant.

Consider prayer.

All the best.

LOL - you quoted an article from 2019, the height of TDS. Rent free in your brain, apparently. How sad you consider yourself an ”expert. Too bad all your education amounts to naught. You feel justified calling me names? Surely with your “credentials” you can present a rational argument.

What article do you say I quoted?

Define “vetted evidence”. Let’s have a dialogue instead of your name-calling remarks. Just because you post it does not make it true.

1 ) Vetted

verb (vets, vetting | vediNG |, vetted | vedəd |) [with object]

make a careful and critical examination of (something): proposals for vetting large takeover bids.

• investigate (someone) thoroughly, especially in order to ensure that they are suitable for a job requiring secrecy, loyalty, or trustworthiness: each applicant will be vetted by police.

2) Evidence

evidence | ˈevəd(ə)ns |

noun

the available body of facts or information indicating whether a belief or proposition is true or valid: the study finds little evidence of overt discrimination.

• Law information given personally, drawn from a document, or in the form of material objects, tending or used to establish facts in a legal investigation or admissible as testimony in court: without evidence, they can't bring a charge.

• signs or indications of something: there was no obvious evidence of a break-in.

3) "Vetted evidence" would require the vetted evidence be reported by a professional journalist through a Pulitzer Prize-winning news agency or a full professor in an accredited university or college.

Thanks for your smarmy and insulting answer. I speak English as a first language.

Smarmy? You asked me to define "vetted evidence" and I defined it, clarifying what I meant. I don't care to respond to you anymore. You are an annoying gossip spreading ugly rumors with no basis in fact, which you may or may not believe. Either way, you are not a person I want to converse with. Goodbye.

Remember, I called for vetted evidence, not unvetted gossip. If you have it, post it. Otherwise, you reveal yourself as a propagandist and gossip.

You’re a libtarded idiot. 😂 “orange man bad”. Being that you’re a “psychotherapist”, you should probably look into having yourself de-programmed; have your testosterone checked while you’re at it.
