Luigi Boria’s love for Donald Trump not shared in Doral

In one of his last ditch efforts to keep his seat, Doral Mayor Luigi Boria — forced into a runoff Tuesday — posted a new Facebook video last week in which he compares himself to President-elect Donald Trump. “Both have achieved the dream of using their experience as successful businessmen to serve the community and this […]

Carlos Gimenez slow to back DACA Dreamers vs Trump

Carlos Gimenez slow to back DACA Dreamers vs Trump

Mayor Carlos Gimenez, wishy washy as ever, was a day late and a dollar short Thursday when he put out a statement supporting the deferred action on immigrants who were brought to the U.S. illegally as children. “This morning, I was briefed on Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA). I fully support the extension of […]

Man up, people! Trump election protests are misdirected

Man up, people! Trump election protests are misdirected

It’s understandable. People want to vent. To say that not everybody is happy or even okay with the presidential election Tuesday would be so much more than the understatement of the year. Everybody is so not okay. Thousands of people from Portland to New York City marched to protest the election results, chanting “Fuck Donald […]

It’s over! Or is it? Some Election Day results will haunt us

It’s over! Or is it? Some Election Day results will haunt us

When we went to sleep last night, it really looked like there was going to be President Donald Trump today. Shiver. But that’s not the only bad news. We also have a new state senator in sucker-punching homophobe bear hunter Frank Artiles. Sigh. U.S. Rep. Carlos Curbelo, a lobbyist with a secret client list and a […]

Donald Trump win is scarier than an unlikely civil war

I’m not scared of what might happen if Donald Trump loses. We woke up Thursday morning to a new climate of fear among political observers and junkies after the Republican presidential candidate hinted during the last debate Wednesday that, should he lose, he may not accept the election results.

Democratic Party throws GOP right bloc at Anitere Flores

It seems like every Democrat candidate is using Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump in their mailers against their counter party opponents. Our mailboxes are full of Trump comparisons in what is a very obvious concerted effort to motivate Democrats and keep disgusted Republican voters home (read: GOTV and voter suppression).  But Trump isn’t enough for […]

Latinas for Trump to protest Univision, Jorge Ramos today

There have been a few protests of Donald Trump‘s immigration positions and proposals at the Doral Resort and Spa he owns. Now, it’s his side’s turn to picket.

Carlos Gimenez lies and cheats to keep control of billions

Carlos Gimenez lies and cheats to keep control of billions

Three times in one week, Miami-Dade Carlos Gimenez‘s secret non-profit has paid for robocalls to tens of thousands of voters saying that Raquel Regalado committed fraud. It’s a lie. So is the robocall saying she’s had to pay some elections violation fine. So is the mailer saying the Miami-Dade School Board member has been absent […]

Hialeah liquor store poet points prose at Trump, guns

Hialeah liquor store poet points prose at Trump, guns

For decades, the owner of M&M Liquors in Hialeah has used his store’s marquee sign to wax on current affairs and political news in his own poetic way. Recently, he’s used it to opine on transgender bathrooms, police shootings and, of course, Donald Trump. In fact, today and tomorrow, Trump could see a message about […]
