Correct. I’m saying I’d still take Appetite and Master of Puppets from the 80s over the albums in the photo from 1991 — as epic as they were….
@RonDeSantis Folks misunderstanding what he's saying. He's not saying Appetite for Destruction is in the photo. He's saying he'd pick that album out of the rock scene of the mid/late 80s to the early 90s.

Same. Except I do like the Beatles; I just like Elvis better.
@EmperorDeSantis @RonDeSantis @JayCollinsFL @JamesUthmeierFL Zeppelin > Floyd.Van Halen > AC/DC (barely).Elvis > Beatles. Probably not a popular take but I can’t stand the Beatles.

Well, some of those names made it big prior to 1996: REM, Tracy Chapman, Tom Petty, Boyz II Men, Dre, Snoop. So they can be included in the earlier era as well….
@RonDeSantis I typically agree with you Governor, but the 90s had the best music and some of the best female artists of my lifetime and alternative reigned supreme. I agree that Johnny Cash is one of the best. I may be biased as he's from my birth home county. Jewel .Fiona .Alanis.Mary J.

Uh, the Daddy Mac is famous for having failed his notary public certification exam, so I don’t think that dog will hunt….
@RonDeSantis Don’t forget the greatest music group of the last century - Kris Kross.

If you compare the music/bands from the last 30 years (1995-2025) to the previous 30 years (1965-1995) it isn’t even close:. From 1965-1995 you have the Beatles/Stones/Zepplin/Hendrix era; Elvis was still in the building; the rise of southern rock including Skynrd; epic country.
Epic year — and it signaled the evolution from metal/hair rock towards grunge/alternative rock. I’d take Appetite for Destruction and Master of Puppets if I had to choose between albums from the mid-to-late 80s vs the early 90s….

Re-upping active duty service as a Green Beret with a prosthetic leg is next level….

With the appointment of retired Green Beret Jay Collins as Lt. Governor, I may have to require all EOG staff to binge watch The Unit:.
Today, I was proud to appoint Jay Collins as Florida’s new Lieutenant Governor. A combat-wounded warrior who served for 23 years as a Green Beret, Jay embodies Florida grit. Since retiring from the Army, @JayCollinsFL has led disaster relief missions and helped rescue Floridians

Will big leaguers participate even though it is in the middle of the season?.

When the proposed amendment is finalized and publicized that will be made clear. It is interesting that of all residential tax revenue paid to local governments, more than half is for non-homestead properties.
@RonDeSantis @GovRonDeSantis Yes! Please get the message out to the voters. I have not heard anyone mention that it would only apply to primary homes. This will level the playing field. I have 3 sons born and raised in Florida and looking to enter the housing market. All 3 graduated from Florida.

Good rundown of our approach to combatting illegal immigration and a reminder that the critics were wrong.
Florida���s tough immigration laws are working. Not just politically. Economically. After SB 1718 passed in 2023, critics warned the economy would collapse. They said farmers would go bankrupt, construction would stall, and families would flee the state. But something else

Lower interest rates would generate more home sales, but as the below post points out, it may accelerate a decline in home prices. The higher rates are inhibiting price discovery and the median home price is way out of whack with median household income.
This is the harsh reality that the housing market hasn’t come to terms with. Everyone thinks rate cuts mean housing to the moon. lol. They still can’t afford the house even if mortgage rates go back to 3%. Once there’s no bid when rates drop the sellers will start to panic 💀
