“Top-down decisions rarely work well,” said Sen. Carter. “Through intentional collaboration and listening directly to the people affected, we can develop practical, ground-up solutions that truly reflect the priorities of rural Missouri. These community councils are about bringing voices together and working toward outcomes benefitting our communities.”
The meeting will be held from 6-8 p.m. at Crowder College, 3405 S. Hammons Blvd. in Joplin. The event is free and open to the public. No registration is required. Members of the media are encouraged to attend and cover the discussions.
Jill supports data centers. Don't let her fool you. She is playing the game just for your vote. The group pulling her strings are crooked and very controlling. She will do or say anything to get votes.
ReplyDelete549, not saying you are wrong, but do you have any proof of her support for data centers?

"I chatted with Jill Carter at the first data center meeting in Sarcoxie, and she said, "I don't get how anyone here thinks I can back a law against data centers when President Trump is all for them." I told her she works for the people of Missouri, not Trump. "

6:26 I do believe that 9:22 has answered your question. Straight from the horses mouth. Trump is definitely pushing for all of these data centers long with his push for AI, so you should definitely believe that his maga cronies, like Jill will jump on that bandwagon too.
DeleteShe also basically said it on KSN, talking about federal push for data centers. She left the regulation to DNR and said with them regulating she’s “absolutely” in support. She brought up national security, which is bogus because no one is saying data centers should be in China, just that we don’t want them rushed through in a drought prone area with healthy communities like SWMO. Put them in the middle of nowhere Utah for all I care.
DeleteDo we know where on the campus?
ReplyDelete5:49AM We think you have a severe paranoia problem, is that your disability to stay on the government handout rolls?
ReplyDeleteAll the rebiblican 'small government' voters are about to find out when government is small it is the government of only the rich and powerful.
ReplyDelete8:27 you are correct. So much for draining the swamp, it seems like the swamp is overflowing with all the maga billionaires and their enablers, along with their entitlements.
DeleteSen. Carter has done a great job. 10x the work that, do nothing, Bill White did. Now his ghoul wife thinks she should have that seat. Sorry Ghoul, your whole campaign is "Because I'm a Doctor" and that doesn't fly. But, but her campaign manager is Queen Covid Ghoul, Paula Baker. NO THANKS!
ReplyDelete9:31 please list for the rest of us, all the wonderful things that you say Jill has done for our area or even Missouri, please. Enlighten the rest of us.
DeletePeople who call women ghouls in anonymous posts are sad and pathetic. I feel sorry for you.
DeleteI am a equal opportunity ghoul spotter, I will have you know. So no need for your pity or virtue signaling here.
Delete8:27AM No, we want "Big Woke, DEI, CRT, Pronoun Shaming - Government", full of Waste and Fraud, where every Somalia Alien in Minnesota can become a Millionaire or every Illegal Alien of the 15-Million that Joe Biden let into our country can get - Free Housing, Free Medical, Free Food, Free Education, Monthly Stipends, Driver Licenses, Social Security Cards, Free Cell Phones - While our Homeless and Veterans cannot get all those Services does that sound fair in the LIBERAL DEMONCRATIC WORLD -
ReplyDelete9:36 I was wondering when the anti Democrat, maga was going to spew their only Republicans are perfect agenda. What a joke! Just look at everything happening around you and you still are not able to see the truth. Education would be very helpful for people like yourself, who only view the world through Fox News. A brain is a terrible thing to waste.
Delete936 is what's wrong with America. Bigoted, divisive, and repulsive.
