The major platforms—Facebook, YouTube, and X—are all refusing to show the trailer for the upcoming documentary that eviscerates the ridiculous pest Elon Musk. So I guess we have to do our part to make sure it is seen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eY_8...

Ashely Moody voted to take away 444,000 Floridians' healthcare because the government 'didn't have enough money.' Meanwhile, Medicare for All would save over 1 trillion dollars a year. It's time for a leader who fights for you & not for insurance companies. #AngieforFlorida

"If voters choose the Republican on the ballot, Trump-endorsed U.S. Rep. Byron Donalds, voters will be inviting more of the same: More division. New culture wars. More trampling of home rule. More costly immigration policies." The Miami Herald goes with David Jolly.

'Sunshine, Drawing Room.' (1905) Vilhelm Hammershøi’s interiors are his most popular pictures, and they have defined public perception of his achievements as an artist. Although he was working in the era of Picasso, Matisse and Duchamp, he has more in common with Vermeer.

Byron Donalds isn’t proposing real solutions to Florida’s homeowners insurance crisis. He’s promising more of the same. Why? He answers to his donors, not you. Florida deserves real reform to cut costs for homeowners. A state catastrophic fund could cut rates by 60%-70%.
