Wednesday- Busta Tax Cap & the Band Back Together

Jul 22, 2026 

What the County Commission did yesterday was put a knife in the backs of taxpayers, and the way it was done, Julius Caesar could not have been more surprised.

It’s not that we weren’t expecting this, especially after the governor appointed the Church Lady to the interim term in the County Commission D-1 seat. The fix was in and it was none other than Thad the Impaler employing his old ways to advocate for a major tax increase. The rest of them aren’t off the hook. There was nary a sound of objection nor a suggestion of cutting any budget items before this potential increase was thrust upon us.

The Property Tax amendment has these officials afraid, afraid they’ll have to do their jobs and actually work on a budget instead of just throwing money around like it’s theirs. We’ll dig into this and show you how the vote at the end of yesterday’s commission meeting was not just busting the tax cap, but blowing it up entirely.
