Hillsborough County Corporate Welfare: $15.5 Million
On July 15, the Hillsborough Board of County Commissioners, by a vote of 6 to 1, approved a proposal from the Tampa Sports Authority (TSA) to spend $10.4 million of Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act money to implement Corona Virus safety measures at Raymond James Stadium.
The beneficiaries: the Tampa Bay Bucs, a highly profitable private company, who would be able to have more fans attend their games.
Well, we can’t have the Lightning and the Yankees (both also highly profitable private companies) feeling left out.
So early this month the Hillsborough Board of County Commissioners, once again by a vote of 6 to1 (Stacy White being the only ‘no’ vote) approved a total of $4.1 million of CARES money for Amalie Arena and George M. Steinbrenner Field for safety improvements related to Corona Virus. $2.4 million will go to Amalie Arena and $1.7 million will go to Steinbrenner Field. MORE
The total of CARES money given to professional sports franchises in Tampa is now $15.5 million. One has to wonder how many small businesses in Hillsborough County, with legitimate and pressing needs, have been unable to get even a dime of this money.

“I feel sorry for the people who lost their jobs. The small businesses struggling. The Democrats are just sitting here, and these poor people getting hurt are just pawns for the election that’s happening November 3.” Rick Scott

“And the biggest reason why is Speaker Pelosi & Senator Schumer believe Trump & the GOP will be blamed for the pain doing nothing will cause & that will help them win the White House & Senate in November.” Marco Rubio HERE

Doug Belden The Destroyer
The Florida Commission on Ethics ruled that there is probable cause to move forward, rather than dismiss an ethics complaint lodged against Hillsborough County Tax Collector Doug Belden.
---
The complaint alleges Belden sent Alma Gonzalez, an attorney and state committee woman with the Hillsborough County Democratic Party messages saying he could use his "influence" to help her obtain employment with a private law firm.
---
With the condition that he would not have a Democratic opponent in his upcoming re-election bid, and when she did not submit to his will, he resorted to threatening her
and her family.
and her family.
