Keisha is right. Georgia’s truckers, businesses, and families need some breathing room. I support her call to pause the state’s diesel tax.
They shouldn’t have to wait for relief while their bills keep climbing.
Georgia leaders need to act now.

A striking thing about the various estimates of how many people Musk killed when he shuttered USAID is that, while of course the exact number is unknown, the estimates all point to a figure of about 750,000 deaths within a year, of which 500,000 were kids
Mass murder isn’t “ill fated cost-cutting”

Sad excuse for journalism: Big profile of DOGE lord doesn’t say a word about all the damage he did. And it was not an “ill fated cost-cutting effort.” It was a malignant, catastrophic attack on the government and its workers by arrogant and ignorant assholes. www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...
He spent 11 months inside DOGE. Now he wants to set the record straight.
In his first major interview about his tell-all memoir, Tyler Hassen describes the culture clash surrounding DOGE’s mission and the backlash that followed.

It’s his money and power whatever. But he’s incredibly racist. It’s his defining trait. If he was a Black man instigating violence, Dems would fall over themselves to condemn him no matter how rich.
