The Unseriousness of Ronda Storms

Florida Sen. Mike Fasano called a meeting of the Senate Committee on Criminal and Civil Justice Appropriations. Fasano seeked input from other committee members on what to do with the controversial "Taj Mahal" building. The $48 million, 97,000-square-foot 1st District Court of Appeal courthouse had personal kitchens for each judge. a gym, and other luxuries that are more suited for Donald Trump than civil servants. Sen. Ronda Storms had this brilliant policy proposal to deal with the "Taj Mahal" building.


"We should insist on our pound of flesh and make them put the air at 80 in the summer and at 50 in the winter," said Sen. Ronda Storms, R-Brandon.


Storms idea was to punish the judges who lobbied for the "Taj Mahal" building by changing the temperature of the thermostat. No one is even certain if the 1st District Court of Appeal judges will be allowed to reside in the building. Storms thermostat idea accomplishes absolutely nothing.

Storms other brilliant policy idea is ending the Hillsborough Transit Agency. Storms' reason is certainly original.


"They have a rule that says cabbies have to wear socks," Storms said in a Dec. 1 St. Petersburg Times article. "I mean, please. Come on."



Perhaps Storms is so against socks because of her public feud with Black Sock the sock puppet. And yes, Storms actually had a public feud with a sock puppet and filed charges.
