Republican candidates and campaign committees have spent more than $4 million at hotel, golf and vineyard properties that bear President TrumpDonald John TrumpConway defends herself against Hatch Act allegations amid threat of subpoena How to defuse Gulf tensions and avoid war with Iran Trump says 'stubborn child' Fed 'blew it' by not cutting rates MORE's name since he was inaugurated in 2017.
More than three dozen members of Congress have held fundraisers or spent the night at Trump properties, according to a review of filings made with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) over the last two years.
More than a quarter of the money spent has come from Trump's own campaign, which has paid his businesses nearly $1.5 million over that span, both for rent and for fundraisers.
The Republican National Committee (RNC) has spent more than $1.1 million at Trump-branded properties in both Washington and Florida.
Watchdog groups have raised concerns over the propriety of Trump profiting off businesses as foreign governments and corporate interest groups currying favor in Washington book rooms at Trump hotels — including Trump's hotel in Washington, D.C.
Attorneys general in Washington, D.C., and Maryland have sued the federal government, alleging the Trump International Hotel in Washington puts the president in violation of the Constitution's Emoluments Clause.
There is nothing in the Constitution that bans a campaign from spending money at a company that benefits a candidate. But those good-government groups say the mixture of business and politics creates a combustible potion.
"The behavior itself is corrupting, and it's creating corruption and the appearance of corruption," said Meredith McGehee, the executive director of Issue One, a group that advocates for ethics in government.
The Trump campaign and the RNC said they did not see anything wrong with hosting events at Trump's properties. Tim Murtaugh, a Trump campaign spokesman, said the campaign "pays market rates for venues and we report all expenditures as required by law to the FEC."
RNC spokesman Michael Joyce said the party's donors "enjoy visiting Trump properties, and have also pointed to the security, convenience, and price as factors" in the decision to hold formal RNC meetings at the hotels.
Republican spending at Trump-owned properties has ballooned since the president took office.
A review by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW), a watchdog organization, found campaigns spent only $468,382 at Trump properties in the dozen years before he announced his run for president in 2015.
"This isn't a continuation of a trend. It's not as though Trump properties were a draw for fundraisers in the past," said Robert Maguire, CREW's research director.
"Trump came into office presenting an unprecedented set of conflicts of interest stemming from his refusal to divest from his businesses. What this spending shows is that far from being a check on these conflicts of interest, his political allies embraced it and fueled it," he added. "He's actively trying to profit off of the presidency.
The Trump International Hotel in the Old Post Office has become a particularly hot property for Republicans raising money in Washington. Campaigns and party committees have spent more than $2 million at the hotel, according to FEC reports.
Trump's public financial disclosure report shows that political groups accounted for at least 3.4 percent of the revenue taken in by Trump International Hotel, according to CREW.
The big spenders include America First Action, the super PAC that will back Trump's reelection bid. Super PACs cannot work directly with campaign committees, but they can host fundraisers anywhere they like; America First Action has spent more than $450,000 at Trump properties since its inception.
"Trump Organization properties are world-class venues in destination locations that our supporters want to visit and are excited to attend events at," said Brian Walsh, America First Action's president. "The staff is always respectful, professional and provides best-in-class service."
Walsh said he was not concerned that hosting events at Trump properties provided an appearance of impropriety.
A 21-page events menu reviewed by The Hill shows private breakfast events start at $42 per person, with a minimum of 25 guests — and an option to add an omelet station at $20 a head. Lunches begin at $60 per person, and multicourse plated dinners begin at $92 per person, before beverages.
Republican fundraisers said those prices are in line with other popular haunts around Washington, and the hotel requires a minimum charge of about $1,800 for a private space. The hotel adds something other venues cannot: The opportunity to rub elbows with top administration officials — and maybe even the president himself — who hang out in its bar and restaurant.
"For anyone looking to impress donors, that would be the perfect place to choose, especially for donors who are not from D.C. and appreciate the novelty of a capitalist president," said one Republican fundraiser, who asked for anonymity to discuss the hotel.
Trump Tower in New York has pulled in more than $1 million in fees from political committees. The vast majority of those dollars come from the Trump campaign itself, which rents space there.
Campaigns and party committees have spent $711,000 at Trump National Doral Miami, where the RNC hosted a meeting last year. FEC reports show state Republican Party leaders from New Hampshire, Minnesota, New Jersey, Washington, Tennessee, Arizona, Wyoming, Nebraska, Connecticut, Iowa, Virginia, Alabama, Nevada, West Virginia, New Mexico, Texas, Vermont, Kentucky, Montana and Illinois all spent donor dollars to stay at the Doral property.
Trump National Doral also hosted the Republican Governors Association for a meeting in May 2017. The group, which is not required to file reports with the FEC, spent $412,000 to host its meeting. It signed a contract to host its event at Doral in February 2015, before Trump announced he would run.
Earlier presidents worked hard to mitigate even the appearance of impropriety. While in office, Jimmy CarterJimmy CarterThe bottom dollar on recession, Trump's base, and his reelection prospects What polls and history tell us about Trump's reelection prospects 'Landslide' for Biden? A look at 40 years of inaccurate presidential polls MORE put his Georgia peanut farm in a blind trust. George W. Bush put his investments in a blind trust. Barack Obama did not even refinance his Chicago home while in office when interest rates dropped, for fear of the appearance that he would get a favorable rate not available to the public.
Trump has not taken the same approach. He declined to divest himself from his business, though he did hand day-to-day control to his sons Donald Jr. and Eric.
Several of the biggest spenders at Trump-branded properties share a top consultant, Maple Creek Consulting. The firm is registered to Samantha Menh, a Republican fundraiser who ran the Great America Committee, Vice President Pence's political arm. The Great America Committee has spent more than $220,000 at Trump-branded properties; Pence attended nine events at Trump properties in 2018, according to CREW.
FEC reports show Menh also worked for Protect the House, a joint fundraising committee that split proceeds among House Republicans in 2018 and spent $228,000 at Trump properties. And Menh worked for Rep. Greg PenceGregory Joseph PenceThe Hill's Morning Report — After contentious week, Trump heads for Japan Republicans spend more than million at Trump properties Pence, McConnell eulogize Sen. Richard Lugar MORE (R-Ind.), the vice president's brother, who won his seat in Congress in 2018.
Menh is now back in the Trump-Pence fold: In April, the Trump campaign announced she had been hired as director of vice presidential operations.
Greg Pence's congressional campaign spent almost $45,000 at Trump properties in both 2018 and 2019, more than any other member of Congress. This year, Pence's campaign paid for a reception at the hotel in early January, just as he was being sworn in to office. It also spent more than $4,400 in lodging expenses in February and March.
"The Trump Hotel is convenient and [the] level of service is great. We plan to do more events there in the future," said Kyle Robertson, Pence's campaign spokesman. Pence now has an apartment in Washington where he stays when Congress is in session.
Fewer campaigns and committees patronize Trump's properties outside of Washington, New York and Florida. The National Republican Senatorial Committee and then-Rep. Tom MacArthurThomas (Tom) Charles MacArthurRepublicans spend more than million at Trump properties The 31 Trump districts that will determine the next House majority 10 things we learned from the midterms MORE (R-N.J.) were among the few who spent money at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, N.J.

Trump properties have become go-to destinations even for Republican politicians who are not headed to fundraisers. CREW documented 53 senators and representatives, all Republicans, who attended events at Trump properties in 2018.
Some members of Congress have continued to patronize Trump properties even after they leave office. Beehive PAC, a political action committee controlled by former Rep. Jason ChaffetzJason ChaffetzFormer chairman appears at House Oversight contempt debate Republicans spend more than million at Trump properties House Dems seek to make officials feel the pain MORE (R-Utah), spent $2,881 for lodging at the Trump Hotel in Washington in December 2018 — 18 months after he left office, and four months after the PAC last reported it had given a contribution to a candidate.
Chaffetz did not respond to an email seeking comment.
McGehee, of Issue One, said the political atmosphere around Trump himself has squelched any serious oversight of candidate spending at Trump properties.
"Because the politics around President Trump are so polarized, those politicians who are choosing to go and spend money at Trump properties do so without fear that their constituents are going to hold them accountable because they're in red states and red districts," McGehee said. "Right now, the Republican base and the Trump base, in a Venn diagram, overlap significantly. Any questioning of this president's activities has become a litmus test for how loyal you are as a Republican."

UK beach warning: 'THOUSANDS' of jellyfish invade coastline ahead of Bank Holiday weekend
THOUSANDS of enormous jellyfish have invaded Britain's west coast and bankholidaygoers are advised to be careful and "leave them alone" as many Britons are expected to flock to the coast this weekend.
A huge swarm of jellyfish, nicknamed "dustbin lids" because of their enormous size, are washing up on Britain's west coast. So far the enormous barrel jellies have been spotted in south Devon, with some infiltrating Torquay harbour, Sheldon and even along the Cornwall coast. Locals were mesmerised by the alien looking creatures which put on a spectacular display on Sunday.
Many of the jellyfish that have been washed up on the shore have been enormous, reaching up to three feet in length.
Those found in Cornwall have been the size of dustbin lids, giving them their nickname Dustbin-lid jellyfish.
They have eight arms, each frilly in appearance.
It is the frills that actually contain their stinging tentacles, which surround hundreds of little mouths.
But their sting is harmless to humans.
The enormous barrel jellyfish have been spotted in south Devon and in Cornwall
Paula Williamson, 45, saw dozens as they gently undulated in Torquay harbour.
She said: "They were everywhere. There were lots and lots in the harbour.
"But they weren't just in the harbour they were swarming everywhere outside it too.
"In the sea outside the harbour wall and along by the pier too.
"There must have been thousands. I've never seen so many in my life."
The swarm stretched along the coast to nearby Shaldon where dozens washed up on the beach.
The Devon Wildlife Trust told Express.co.uk that the barrel jellyfish "are not dangerous" and explained that it wasn't unusual for so many to be washed onto the shore.
Steve Hussey, from Devon Wildlife Trust, said: "There was another swarm in south Devon about a month ago.
"It happens most summers and it may be linked to food availability due to warming sea temperatures."
When asked what beachgoers should do if they come across one, Mr Hussey advised they "should be admired, but left alone".
He said that while barrels jellyfish are harmless to humans, some species can give a nasty sting.
He added: "When jellyfish are washed up it can be hard to tell what specie they actually are, so it is best to leave them alone to avoid getting a nasty sting."

Democrats trying to keep the public's attention on special counsel Robert S. Mueller III's findings will hold a hearing Wednesday in which two former FBI spy-hunters plan to testify about Russian intelligence efforts against the United States.
Robert Anderson and Stephanie Douglas, two former senior FBI officials who specialized in espionage cases, are set to testify about Mueller's findings before the House Intelligence Committee, which is conducting a separate probe into Russia's interference in the 2016 election. Its chairman, Rep. Adam B. Schiff (D-Calif.), has been one of President Trump's most outspoken critics on matters related to the Russia investigation, and Trump has repeatedly attacked him and called him names.
Anderson and Douglas left the FBI well before it launched the investigation into Russia's actions — the case that was taken over by Mueller in May 2017 — but lawmakers consider their experience to be relevant.
Earlier in her FBI career, Douglas helped convict Harold Nicholson, a CIA official who sold sensitive information about CIA personnel to Russian intelligence officials. Nicholson is the rare spy who was caught twice — in 2008 he was charged with conspiring from his prison cell to recruit his son to act as a go-between to sell more secrets to Russia.
[ House Democrats gain little traction on impeachment ]
Committee Republicans invited a third witness, Andrew McCarthy, a former federal prosecutor who has been critical at times of Mueller's approach to the Russia investigation.
Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, at a hearing last week. (Andrew Harnik/AP) Since Mueller's report was released in April, Democrats have struggled to get key witnesses to appear before Congress and discuss the president's conduct on live television.
Mueller has proclaimed his strong desire not to testify. Former aides to Trump have been instructed not to do so, and House Democrats are preparing for potential court battles over subpoenas.
Earlier this week, Democrats held a hearing featuring a star witness from the Watergate era — former Nixon White House counsel John Dean. Four decades ago, Dean's testimony was riveting and crucial to the congressional debate about President Richard M. Nixon's actions; his appearance Monday, though, underscored the Democrats' difficulty in finding a compelling witness against the current president.

The newest bit of stupidity is that Commifornia is going to provide full health coverage to illegal invaders.
They're going to do it by..... taxing those without health insurance.
In other words they're going to try to do what Obama did (e.g. "individual mandate") but virtually all of any such tax will fall on those who have no employer-provided "insurance benefits" -- that means self-employed and poor people.
There will shortly be none of the former in the state, and there are already plenty of the latter, many literally living on the streets.
Of course Commiformia thinks they can somehow make the math work on this. They can't. It's not possible. Exactly how they think they can manage to have the highest taxes in all of the nation and keep those who pay taxes is beyond me.
But... let 'em try.
One thing though -- no subsidies from the rest of us for this stupidity. And yeah, I mean it. We the people of the rest of the nation need to make clear to the Federal Government that while the 50 state political experiment is indeed the design of our nation laying the cost off on others will not be tolerated and we will stop it by any means necessary if it is tried.
You can bet it will be tried too; that old prune Pelosuckme needs to hear loudly and clearly that it ain't gonna happen and whatever form refusal must take, it will take. Peaceful and lawful are my preferred paths, but irrespective of the necessary method of enforcement the answer is NO.
When in the course of human events.....
There are only a few ways to lawfully amend the Constitution -- they're enumerated in the process that it provides within its boundaries for doing so.
There are myriad ways to break the contract the Constitution provides. Once broken no other party allegedly bound by the terms of a deal have any obligation -- not ethically, morally or legally -- to uphold the bargain themselves.
The State "popular vote compact" is one such attempt.
There are many who claim that those who disagree with the concept should be afraid of further states signing on.
I'm not afraid at all.
The Electoral College was constructed by the Founders to guarantee that less-populous states and regions had a reasonable voice in the selection of the President and Vice-President. The reason for it is identical to the purpose of The Senate; to prevent tyranny of the majority, especially a concentrated majority in major population centers..
Those protections are an inherent and inviolate component of the Constitution.
Proponents argue that the Constitution directly stipulates that the legislature of a given state may select how electors are chosen. This is true, however there is a problem: Congress must consent to any Interstate Compact, which makes any such agreement without an explicit enabling federal law void.
So says Article 1 Section 10, prohibited powers:
No State shall, without the Consent of Congress, lay any duty of Tonnage, keep Troops, or Ships of War in time of Peace, enter into any Agreement or Compact with another State, or with a foreign Power, or engage in War, unless actually invaded, or in such imminent Danger as will not admit of delay.
So while the state legislatures may set forth the elector process they may not collude with other States without the explicit consent of Congress. There is some case law on this at the USSC, and the boundary is clearly set there -- state compacts that impact, lessen or abrogate federal power always require Congressional approval. This compact would effectively remove the US House of Representative's ability to break ties because there would never be a tie; it therefore has the effect of writing out an entire section of the Constitution and thus diminishes federal power.
It's facially unconstitutional for this reason and the legislatures know it.
Never mind that I can find another means by which it's unconstitutional -- specifically, it is effectively "selling" the electors of a state to voters who are not residents of said state. That the "price" is votes instead of dollars is not material; something of value (a popular vote) is exchanged for something of value (an electoral vote.) The state legislature is not empowered to effectively sell its electoral process, especially to persons outside of the state in question, and yet that is exactly what the compact envisions.
Now perhaps that's a bit of interpretation and who knows how the Supremes would rule on it.
But the compact issue isn't a matter of interpretation; that's a black letter prohibition on state governments in Article 1 Section 10.
A State that declares and acts in furtherance of putting up the middle finger by engaging in an explicit prohibited act in the Constitution has declared said Constitution including its benefits to said state and the residents thereof VOID.
Wanna go there? Go right ahead. By declaring the benefits and protections of the Constitution VOID said state has made itself ineligible to submit electors at all. It is no longer within the State's right demand any of the benefits and privileges of Statehood nor any of the protections of the Constitution.
Should it thereafter attempt to demand same every other state and citizen of any other said state can quite-legitimately tell said government agents (including law enforcement, tax collectors and similar) to pound sand as they are no longer entitled to the full faith and credit of their laws beyond their state boundaries (one of the privileges and benefits of being a State) and should they try to enforce same the people have every right to declare such an act of civil war against them and respond accordingly.
This does not just apply to government agencies either. Want gas through that pipe or electrical power through that overhead line as it crosses a state boundary? Tough crap. Try to force it to happen? How? You've declared you're not part of the Constitution any more; therefore you're not entitled to the protections that lie in the Interstate Commerce Clause. Try to enforce that and again the other states have the right to treat that as an act of civil war.
Still wanna go there folks?
Down this road lies madness -- a literal shooting war between state agencies (e.g. state cops, etc) and the citizens of all the other states they try to demand respect from. This is not only a numerical loser it's a strategic loser on an instant basis; California, for example, would be rendered unable to provide power to homes and businesses as fully one third of their electrical power comes from outside the state and they are thus utterly dependent on that outside supply. Never mind the water issue; Southern California is utterly dependent on neighboring states for its fresh water supply as well and on the very day this goes into effect none of those states have any obligation to allow one drop of said water to flow.
Go ahead and do it; there are hills worth dying on and this is one of them.
Four years ago, Chicago imposed a 9% tax on streaming entertainment services, leading to a flurry of lawsuits. Now, the city has collected $2 million in sales tax from Sony and two online ticketing services, making it the first major city to collect such a tax successfully, Bloomberg reported.
This gets interesting for a number of reasons. Chicago was once known as extremely friendly when it came to online services in their (and Illinois) tax code, dating back to the Telenet/Tymnet days (yes, I do go back that far -- into the old X.25 networks!)
Now of course they're the exact opposite; the city has become a voracious tax-grabber via virtually anything it can get its hands on, and that now extends to any sort of "streaming" service which was hit with what amounts to a surtax.
The means by which Chicago did this was through their existing "amusement tax" framework; if you've ever played a video or pinball game in many if not most jurisdictions you'll note that there's a tax sticker under the glass somewhere. "Amusement" devices are typically levied at a fixed amount per-machine per-year, although some jurisdictions have a "coin drop percentage" tax -- which is much more burdensome to comply with.
When this tax was announced a number of lawsuits were immediately filed and many of the targets refused to pay. But the court history on these cases hasn't gone the challenger's way at all; to the contrary, they have been rebuffed at every turn. While there are decisions still out on appeal the jurisdictional record doesn't look good for the challengers at all.
This is certainly something to watch; pure services, with a few exceptions, are frequently not subject to sales and use taxes in various states, but the exception list keeps getting chipped away at, especially in places that are high tax-cost and those with severe budgetary pressures. Taxing someone's Netflix subscription looks like low-hanging fruit to me, and it seems Chicago thinks so too.
That's what you get when you think you can have everything you want from a government but pay nothing.
Life doesn't work like that.
One definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over while expecting different results.
The Okaloosa County Commission is by definition dysfunctional, corrupt or both. Any governmental unit that believes a 47% budget increase over the space of a mere five years is defensible has rocks in their head. That the Commission managed to paint over this by drawing down reserves when the cause was not a one-year hit from an event like a hurricane (which is what reserves are for) ought to be treated as criminal corruption and result in the incarceration of everyone involved.
The "escalating" expenses in the budget this year alone are primarily (1) reserve restoration (that is, paying back what the commission took through gross mismanagement), (2) adding to said reserves (possibly arguably ok), (3) more law enforcement (big shock) and (4) insane health care cost escalations.
If Okaloosa County wishes to improve its economic attractiveness it must address these issues along with the outrageous actions and inactions by the Commission not only over previous years, but on a forward basis.
Like many if not most counties Okaloosa County's ad-valorem tax revenue almost exclusively goes to the Sheriff's Office (and related expenditures, such as the county jail.) This is not unusual; there are in fact counties where more than 100% of ad-valorem revenue goes to law enforcement. If you're wondering why county sheriffs like to write tickets, well, you just figured it out since traffic fines of course offset some of their ad-valorem tax demand.
But in this county, as in other tourist areas, there's a problem: The majority of services provided by the Sheriff's Office, most of which are quite-mundane (e.g. traffic accidents, etc) involve and are provided to tourists. The issue is that tourists pay almost zero ad-valorem tax; while if they rent someone's condo that person does pay the tax they only occupy the building for a tiny part of the year and thus on a pro-rata basis, that is, on a per-capita/year basis, they pay almost nothing.
Yet on a per-capita/year basis tourists form the majority of the Sheriff Department's load.
The county could have avoided a very large percentage of the millage increase in this particular case had it developed a taxation system that placed upon the users of these services the burden of paying for them. In fact, if the Commission had done so years ago there would be no need for millage increases at all; instead we'd be running a material surplus from ad-valorem revenue and would also have long ago reached the desired level of reserves!
Instead the county has a "bed tax" that is locked up for tourism "development" (read: advertising and promotion.) That "lockbox" currently has a large surplus and yet not one dollar of it can be used to fund the operating cashflow deficiency in the Sheriff's department caused by tourism. Since our condos and hotels are in fact currently at capacity during the season there is also no point to spending money on additional promotion since there's nowhere to put additional tourists -- never mind that if we did the deficiency in the Sheriff's department would simply grow larger.
In response what the Commission has done is demand of residents that we pay more property tax.
This imbalance is a direct consequence of a poorly-designed taxing system that has shifted the cost of law enforcement brought to the area by tourism onto the backs of those who live here year-round. Rather than change the taxation regime so as to shift those costs onto those who consume the services the Commission instead decided to screw the residents and continue to subsidize the tourists with resident tax money, an effective act of theft-by-conversion through the operation of law and ordinance!
If the Commission wishes the residents of the county to embrace and approve of tourism in our area they need to stop screwing the residents and landowners whom they need to provide goods and services to said tourists.
The current situation is exactly as if said tourists directly broke into resident homes and stole money from them with the Sheriff's Department providing "muscle" for the thieves.
The Sheriff, for his part, is well aware of this and in fact he's actively involved in that cost-shifting through the way he practices law enforcement. Sheriff Larry Ashley does this intentionally and he knows damn well exactly what he's doing -- and why.
To take just one example on "heavy tourist weekends" (e.g. Memorial Day, Labor Day, etc) the Sheriff's Office typically sets up a "safety" checkpoint somewhere intended to snare DUIs (and other offenses, of course.) This may be defensible since DUIs spike on said weekends but the Sheriff's Office always places that checkpoint at locations where few to zero tourists ever travel, such as on Mountain Drive instead of right in the exit path from popular tourist drinking locations like AJs on 98 and the complex of tourist-focused nightclubs and bars at the fishing pier on Okaloosa Island. The most-recent example was a checkpoint on Beal Parkway that is not on the path to or from any frequented tourist accommodation from any drinking establishment but is on the path home for many local residents from local-frequented bars and nightspots. As such while they do catch people driving drunk with these checkpoints a ridiculously-overrepresented percentage are locals since the tourists happily drive drunk down the roads the Sheriff intentionally does not concentrate on and the checkpoint consumes resources that could otherwise be used to patrol such areas WHERE THERE ARE LOTS OF DRUNK TOURISTS. While DUI is a problem for everyone and I applaud getting any dangerously-intoxicated person off the road to place such "checkpoints" where nearly zero tourists will encounter them but locals will leaves the largest component of risk for DUI accidents and death on those weekends intentionally under-policed.
This practice has been undertaken for my entire 17 years of living here and yet not a single mention of it has ever been made by the County Commission that I am aware of. The local media has also ignored it, of course. In my years here I cannot recall one time that I've seen a checkpoint at either the Harbor area or near the fishing pier -- both routinely full of drunk tourists on a holiday weekend.
As a strong and positive signal to the Sheriff's Department the Commission could make clear that the department will have all funding increases denied and in fact will have its budget cut by 10% a year until it starts behaving in a fashion in its policing that matches the load imposed on the department by the various groups demanding services.
This is just one of many examples but it's one of the most-glaring, obvious and easily corrected without spending a single additional nickel. Further, for each tourist caught DUI as opposed to a local resident the local economic impact is actually positive on balance since (1) they won't wreck someone else's property (and maybe someone else's life) thereby imposing costs on residents, (2) the court system collects a large fine and costs (including quite-possibly enough to cover whatever incarceration term is imposed, if any) which goes back into the county coffers and (3) the consequential unemployment (and thus lower or zero future spending for some period of time) of said person, if it occurs, harms some other economy instead of ours.
The Commission can also work to redesign the portion of the county and local tax structure they control with the express intent (and if necessary votes of the citizens) so as to place the burden that tourism puts on the Sheriff's Office entirely on said tourists at the same time. But, I caution residents, half-steps that are not linked in an indivisible way are not acceptable.
If the commission will not place the costs tourists impose on the Sheriff's Office on them and insist that the Sheriff direct his enforcement activities toward those causing the service volume increases we who live here ought to contemplate being rude as hell to said tourists and try to get them to leave as that will both improve our quality of life and decrease our taxes!
There are plenty of other issues in the Sheriff's Department, mostly revolving around effectiveness in policing. The county jail is currently 200 people over nominal capacity yet the question not asked is why do we keep seeing increasing incarceration rates? We're obviously doing it wrong both in terms of real economic progress (employed, happy people rarely commit jailable offenses.) When it comes to law enforcement tactics instead of demanding that Sheriff and his deputies change their tactics so as to reduce crime that leads to incarceration (and thus decrease both the number of people in jail and the need to hire more deputies) the Commission instead votes to throw money at the problem, hire more cops, buy more law-enforcement hardware and contemplate building a bigger jail while taxing the productive members of society, in some cases probably to the point that they no longer deem their effort worth it and thus turn to crime!
In other words the Commission's actions, on the margin, actually create criminals who then not only need to be locked up they victimize the productive members of our society as well.
On the revenue side the Commission wishes to pass a sales surtax, and plans to put such before the public later this year or early next year. Such a surtax, if we are to approve it, must come with permanent and enforceable rollbacks that are of exactly equal budgetary impact in millage that occur before the sales tax is imposed. The point of such must be to shift burden to the user of services to the extent we can, not simply add revenue. I remind you that a tax is a tax is a tax; whether I pay it in a property tax levy or at the local store makes zero difference at the end of the month when it comes to the impact on my wallet. Further, the anticipated sales tax revenue is grossly more than the property tax levy increase -- that is, there was no reason to pass the property tax increase EXCEPT to screw the residents given this sales tax proposal.
The second and probably most-important issue both retrospectively and on a forward basis, however, is one that's much easier than redesigning the county's taxation structure or even pressuring the Sheriff to do the right thing.
It revolves around the same issue everyone else in the country -- not just Okaloosa County -- has today.
That, of course, is the insane escalation of health care costs over the previous three decades which has no indication that it will slow down or reverse. Indeed, the Commission's presentation featured no less than three line items comprising a large part of the increase in the millage that resulted from the insane expansion of health-care cost, including a 15% year-over-year increase in county employee health insurance premiums. The Commission, ever-mindful of its employees at the expense of everyone else in the county who are also being slammed by the very same costs included a bonus to be paid to county employees for the explicit purpose of assisting with their health expenses. Another line item was for two incidents at the jail in which the county was obligated to provide care, and which totaled nearly a half million dollars!
Out of six million and change to be raised via the millage that's no small potatoes.
So why doesn't Okaloosa County act to fix the health care issue? Why, for example, did the Commission years ago support and get passed via referendum the "ALS" system in our county -- an upgrade to the county ambulance service that is both quite expensive and, on the merits by one study actually produces worse outcomes by delaying transport to hospitals in order to "intervene on-site" instead.
Needless to say the medical "community" doesn't like studies such as this and relentlessly attacks them whenever and wherever they appear. The problem is that an actual out-of-hospital cardiac arrest has a crappy survival rate in the first place so any "analysis" of same is probably specious at best. Facts are facts and it's simply this: You have about 4 minutes after a cardiac arrest before the odds are that you're either dead or severely and permanently impaired; if someone does not provide CPR, use an AED (if it works for the disordered rhythm you have) or get you into an actual hospital OR in that amount of time you're almost-certain to die. Since simple response times (remember, it's from the arrest, not from the time of the 911 call!) are typically more than 4 minutes simply to figure out exactly where you are, what's happened, get the word to the EMS folks and get the truck moving, well.... you do the math.
Here is the ugly reality nobody wants to deal with honestly: If you arrest in the hospital you have an approximate 20% chance of survival long enough to be discharged -- that is, to leave the hospital in something other than a hearse. That's if you arrest in the hospital folks. If you arrest outside of a hospital your odds are roughly six percent. With such dismal base figures it's easy to scream "20% improvement!" while the actual change is just over one percent in survival rate, which makes any such claim when used to support multi-million dollar expenditures on salaries and equipment an outrageous and public fraud.
The more-damning evidence in that same study on ALS .vs. BLS services, however, is found in severe trauma situations (e.g. severe car accidents, etc.) There BLS also outperformed -- in other words, all that "intervention" is for crap compared to getting the victim to a hospital now in that it actually harms and even kills people. But all that "intervention" sure as hell is expensive, it was sold as a "great thing" here that would save Granny and now we're stuck with it -- and with the crazy costs, even though the "upgrade" in service is a net negative when it comes to survival rates.
Who on the Commission has brought this up in the budget hearings? I note that the ALS EMS system was one of the cited issues this year. I'll answer that for you: Nobody. Why not? I raised hell at the time the referendum was being debated in the county, pointing out that the simple math on out-of-hospital cardiac events were rarely survived irrespective of assistance and as such the proposal was a massive fraud upon the public and was called all sorts of names, including by the current paramedics who were electioneering 1 foot beyond the minimum legal distance at every ****ing polling place in the county. Why?
Big salary increases coming their way for full time 24x7 coverage, that's why. They didn't like being called on the fact that they were -- and still are -- robbing the public.
The Commission should put facts before the public and place a referendum out there to get rid of ALS in the County. It's worthless on a comparative basis and expensive. It was sold to the public via an outrageous and false campaign of misinformation promulgated by the very employees who benefited from it and nobody in the Commission took them on. The Commission can fix this right now and it damn well should.
But this is not the only place the Commission could act when it comes to Health spending. The Commission could put a stop to nearly all of the financial shenanigans that make health care so expensive in Okaloosa County.
The Commission can act to do it tomorrow.
Okaloosa County, like most counties, issues business licenses. You must have one to conduct business of any sort. I have a business license because I do contract computer work from time to time, among other business interests I have and may wish to engage in. The law says I must pay a license fee and have a nice certificate from the county displayed where I "primarily" do said business (it's in my bedroom, right near my computer.)
The county, of course, places conditions on said license. So long as those conditions are non-discriminatory that's perfectly legal. Among others I had to get a sign-off from the planning commission documenting that, for example, I understood that it was illegal to post any sort of signage or have customers come to my house. That's reasonable; I live in an area that is zoned for homes, not storefronts. Some occupations have further requirements including state-operated licensing (e.g. cosmetologists, etc.)
The County could largely solve the health care mess in this county by conditioning business licenses, which every doctor's office, dentist, hospital, clinic and pharmacy must have just like every other business, on the following three simple points:
1. You must post prices for all goods and services you sell so customers can see them before agreeing to goods or services being delivered.
2. You must charge everyone the same price for like kind and quantity, with allowance made only for reasonable differentials in the actual cost of delivery of same, difference in classification of customer or collection costs associated with payment. A differential of 10% from the posted cash price shall be conclusively deemed reasonable.
3. Upon presentation of proof that a business has violated (1) or (2) to the County Commission the business license in question is revoked and may not be reapplied for by the same principals and/or at the same location until a period of one year passes.
The 10% differential allows for, as an example, giving a 10% discount to Seniors. Or to the Military. Or, for that matter, to charge a 10% fee for open invoicing or third-party (e.g. insurance) billing as opposed to cash on the table. All of this is reasonable. But what this requirement would instantly put to a stop is the extremely common practice of charging someone two, three, five or ten times as much money for the exact same good or service simply because they have one particular insurance coverage over another, or worse, no insurance at all.
The very day that this requirement is put in place every single medical center, doctor's office and hospital has to start competing for business because they must post prices and may not screw one person for 10x the charge they bill out to someone else.
You can see the difference in price that merely posting prices and charging everyone the same price has at the Surgery Center of Oklahoma which posts all of its prices and charges everyone the same price.
The prices posted there are typically roughly one fifth of those charged by hospitals -- including the hospitals in Okaloosa County.
If the County Commission adopts such an ordinance then in order to operate a medical clinic, dental office, pharmacy or other business that provides medical care (or anything else for that matter) there must be a posted set of prices and everyone must pay the same price. To operate a business in this county you must have a business license.
If the county adopts such an ordinance medical costs will drop like a stone -- to about 20% of what they are now.
How do I know this will happen? Because it's being done right now at the Surgery Center of Oklahoma and that's the result -- prices that are roughly one fifth that charged in conventional hospitals.
The result will be a permanent resolution of health-cost escalation for all persons in the county. That includes but certainly is not limited to those who work for the county government.
Not only will the budget problem be solved for the county it will also be solved for the residents of the county, including most-especially those who have been allegedly screwed blind by North Okaloosa Medical Center, which, I remind you, is in Commissioner Boyles' district. I further note that particular medical center is currently being sued as a class-action for this exact issue -- differential pricing that wildly screws some people compared to others.
I wonder if the jail's medical cost issue arises at least in part from the same medical center? The jail is awfully close to that hospital; if they provided the care to said inmates has the county joined and sought to expand the suit? Did the County get hammered with a $400,000 medical bill due to differential pricing that they could have prevented from occurring and which screwed them -- that they now expect us as county residents to pay for? If so why haven't they already adopted an ordinance to permanently put a stop to that crap and gone after the providers in question?
I have no problem with posting a price for my time as a consultant or bidding out work with a per-hour rate. Every attorney in town does exactly that. Tapworks posts their beer prices on a chalkboard, easily visible to everyone who comes in. The car repair center posts their prices; they have a shop rate per-hour, and a flat-rate book for everything they do. AMC Movies in the Destin Commons posts their prices for a ticket, for popcorn, and for a glass of wine. Every store in the area posts prices on the shelf or on the item, from Walmart to Whole Foods to Best Buy to Kilwins. The gas station has a big sign out front telling you exactly how much per-gallon their gasoline costs so you can choose whether to stop there or go across the street. Your Gulf Power or Chelco bill has a per-kWH price on it as does your Okaloosa Gas bill per therm. Every local restaurant has a menu with prices on it. The local hotels and inns all have posted prices, most are on the Internet and all will tell you exactly what a room will cost when you call them or walk through the front door before you are obligated to pay. Every one of those firms charges everyone exactly the same price for the same thing bought at the same time, other than the few instances in which you get 10% off for being an active-duty military member, a Senior Citizen, or if you get a small discount for cash commensurate with the decreased cost of taking it as opposed to credit cards.
There's nothing about such an ordinance that prohibits someone from charging a different price at a different time or changing prices as a merchant so chooses. I booked my hotel for the recent eclipse a year in advance and got a decent price. Everyone else who booked that same day paid the same price. If you booked a room a week before the eclipse, if you could find one, I bet it cost more, and probably a lot more. That's perfectly fine and legal. What wouldn't be legal -- and is simply not acceptable -- is charging one person $500 for a hotel room because they drove a Porsche up to the front door while someone in a Chevy gets charged $100.
Condition all business licenses on this requirement and the medical problem goes away in an afternoon and so does the county budget problem. It goes away not just for the County but for every one of our residents.
At the same time Okaloosa County becomes the place to start and run a business -- not just in Florida either, but nationally.
In short this is the "small action" answer that applies the very same solution I've advocated for on a national basis -- and it will work, because we already know it does via the example found in Oklahoma.
The County Commission has a solution to both its budget issues and a means to radically boost economic growth within the grasp of the commission and the citizens who live here. There is no need for a millage increase; indeed, millage could be radically cut were this ordinance to be put in place as the additional economic activity would boost tax receipts to an enormous degree.
Pass this ordinance at your next meeting if you have any desire to actually solve the problem -- not just for the County budget but for those who you allegedly serve as well.
If you don't, or won't do the above then expect trouble with retaining your office in the next election. I'm tired of government officials that refuse to address problems and simply throw the people's money around they extract by force especially when they personally profit from market bubbles and churn they foster and promote.
Would you consider it perfectly ok if Mack Busbee, the Okaloosa Property Appraiser, owned a title company and thus made money on real estate transactions in the county while responsible for setting their valuations?
Think about that while reading the following.
Okaloosa County's Commission just voted to raise its millage by 11% next year. For having the temerity to speak against such an increase I was personally attacked by Commissioner Boyles who read into the record the details of my property ownership, implying that I was a "fat cat" who should not complain.
Yes, Mr. Boyles, I can afford it. I can also attend a 5:01 PM meeting 30 miles from where working people and our military had just gotten off work 1 minute prior -- and thus couldn't protest personally.
A bit of investigation leads me to believe there may be more motivating Commissioner Boyles than being called out by a voter for promoting a tax increase -- and a 47% budget increase over the last five years.
Commissioner Boyles owns a title company and personally profits from increased real estate churn. Ad-valorem tax increases hurt renters more than homeowners as rental property does not enjoy either homeowner's exemption or valuation escalator caps.
Millage and valuation increases thus fall disproportionately on service industry employees who earn lower average wages and our military who are subject to involuntary reassignment on a rolling 2-year basis, a fact that makes buying real estate risky for them but very profitable for title companies.
That would be bad enough as an indirect conflict of interest. But it gets worse because Commissioner Boyles is also listed as the County Commission's liason to the Appraiser's Office and Valuation Adjustment Board.
The property appraiser sets values of the real estate in the county, while the Valuation Adjustment Board is who you appeal to if you think the appraiser screwed you.
So Commissioner Boyles, who owns a title company in Crestview not only has influence over setting the millage (rate of tax charged) he also has influence over both determining value against which that rate of tax is charged and, arguably worse, adjudicating disputes should you have the temerity to argue you were unfairly appraised!
That's not a "thumb on the scale" of justice it's both thumbs and a big toe.
Florida Statutes say the following:
(5) It is hereby declared to be the policy of the state that no officer or employee of a state agency or of a county, city, or other political subdivision of the state, and no member of the Legislature or legislative employee, shall have any interest, financial or otherwise, direct or indirect; engage in any business transaction or professional activity; or incur any obligation of any nature which is in substantial conflict with the proper discharge of his or her duties in the public interest.
Please remember that beyond legal requirements in the Florida Statutes there is an overarching issue: The key principle of sound government ethics policy is that government employees and officials must refrain at all times from even the appearance of impropriety.
Irrespective of whether the letter of law was shaved or flagrantly broken in my opinion Mr. Boyles' participation in the setting of millage and real estate value assessment smells like week-old dead fish. That Commissioner Boyles is also involved in the dispute resolution process should people believe they got screwed adds crawling maggots all over said week-old dead fish.
Absent Mr. Boyles' "Yea" vote, since the commission passed the millage increase 3-2, the motion to jack the millage up by 11% on all Okaloosa County residents would have failed. The Commission still has a final vote on said millage coming up and can choose to reject it at that time.
Given all of the above the Commission must void said vote, void all contaminated actions taken since Mr. Boyle's ascension to office and act decisively to bar future conflicts.
But whether the Commission acts or not effective means of redress remain with the voters of this county aimed not just at Mr. Boyles but at the entire Commission in the next election and, one hopes, via investigation by the State Attorney General's office.

B.C. health officials say the record for the most overdose calls in a single day has been met once again.
Emergency Health Services announced Saturday that July 27 saw paramedics respond to 130 calls across the province. The only other time that number was achieved was more than a year ago, on April 26, 2017.
READ MORE: April's 'Welfare Wednesday' single worst day for recorded overdose calls in B.C. history
No one died as a result of any of the overdoses, but health officials say the number is still deeply disturbing.
"Any number over 100 is much too high, but to hit 130 is not something we ever want to see," Linda Lupini, executive vice president of BC Emergency Health Services, said.
Lupini said the highest numbers were in the Fraser Health and Vancouver Coastal Health regions, with 48 and 46 suspected overdoses, respectively.
Seventeen calls were recorded in the Island Health region, followed by 16 in the Interior and three calls in the northern region.

Lupini said the spike was likely due to a number of factors, including a "high toxicity" in the street drug supply being reported by staff at supervised injection sites.
"Unfortunately when we see these spikes we see there's no quality control being followed among a couple of producers," Lupini said.
"There's multiple producers all trying to get their product out on the street as quickly as possible, so we can't predict when we'll see another rise in calls."
'Welfare Wednesday' warning
The spike also came two days after July's so-called "Welfare Wednesday," the day at the end of each month when social assistance cheques are handed out.
A 2016 study from the B.C. Centre for Disease Control found overdose deaths were 40 per cent higher during the last week of each month, with the largest spikes happening within the two days after cheques were distributed.
READ MORE: Victoria police got so many overdose calls overnight they ran out of naloxone
The report recommended government either stagger the cheques throughout the month, or issue smaller cheques more frequently. That recommendation has been echoed by police chiefs in some jurisdictions, including Victoria.

Removing stigma
Lupini pointed out the number of overdose calls are starting to level out month-to-month for the most part, but the number of calls recorded by paramedics doesn't reflect the actual number of overdoses per day.
That's because many more overdoses happen when addicts use alone, or among people who are able to administer naloxone or otherwise revive victims without needing to call an ambulance.

"We need to remove the stigma surrounding addiction that makes people think they should use alone," Lupini said.
She added that the leveling-off of overdose numbers shows "a lot of good work" is being done to keep people alive.
"Now we have to look at what we do next to bring those numbers down," she said. "Because this is still a crisis."

The majority of shares were bought IMO at the 012 to 02 range early on in the AM thus not a lot of people are selling yet for a loss on just day #2 (Friday). It held up pretty well being down on 30%. That drop to 0003 was either a mistake or a market sell order. The Ask and Bid never went below the 004's at that time despite it showing the 0003 for a second there.
