Please share this far and wide. I live in this county and the corruption is unbelievable.
Edited to add. Source: https://www.fultoncountynews.com/articles/county-refuses-library-request-for-additional-funding/
This is also the same county (and commissioners) that, in November 2021, refused an additional 3k in funding to the library because the library hosts LGBTQ groups. The republican commissioners reason for refusal included "not funding a hate group"* and asking "do we want Muslims moving until the country?"
Note‐‐------‐------- *TrueNorth Wellness had asked to use meeting space at the library and the additional funding was NOT related to this request.
“We and TrueNorth Wellness Services wanted to offer this opportunity to the county’s LGBTQ+ community because a library patron asked if there was a safe meeting space for said community,” Brambley told the “News.” The lack of current LGBTQ+ support group was also identified in a recent needs-based assessment for the community. -----‐---------------------
I quote from the article "[Commissioner] Ulsh then gave details of a news story he read a few days prior concerning a Muslim man identified as a terrorist. According to Ulsh, the man was allegedly found with plans regarding a takeover of American soil. He described that the man arrested had a 30-year plan to take over the United States, and that “we” were in year 27, stage four of the plan."
The article goes on to state "Commissioner Ulsh stated, “I don’t agree with any organization, any group. I don’t agree with any organization that gets a group together that has an agenda behind it. I don’t care if it’s hate-based, I don’t care if it’s Pagans, I don’t care if it’s the Ku Klux Klan. Any organization has an agenda, or they wouldn’t have an organization. If instilled into a standalone person that numbers are what wins, so everybody automatically decides that the more people we get involved, the more we can take over. That’s overthrowing, and I don’t agree with that. I don’t agree with a group overthrowing anything, so I don’t agree with organizations no matter what it is.”"
In further explaining their rationale, Commissioners Bunch responded with,“I ain’t saying that every LGQ (sic) organization is a hate group. I’m saying it creates hate just like all these other ones create hate. I don’t hate anybody. I’m just saying that LGBTQ and any of those organizations make people upset. I personally think none of them need any part in Fulton County. I don’t dislike anybody; I just don’t want something that’s going to create friction between people. I don’t feel where taxpayers’ money is given that stuff like that should go on. None of it. Not the LGBTQ, Proud Boys, Ku Klux Klan – I don’t agree with any of that.”
P.s. it is my opinion they DO very much agree with the proud boys and KKK. One of the commissioners has a huge mural of Trump right beside a white Jesus on the walls of his business. And heaven forbid if you aren't an extreme right church going Christian, but that's my opinion.
And - several local residents started fund raising and we were able to get way more than the 3K originally requested.

Considering the rise in political violence in recent years is almost exclusively a republican tactic, and especially because they often blame the left until they are exposed, I'll stand by my statement.

I'm not sure - I don't get close enough to that group to know for sure, but based upon his public comments, it's some Q-based bullshit
