My opponent, a socialist, runs a bookstore called Cafe Resistance, quotes the communist manifesto, and celebrates those that attack police.
What you see in France, communists taking to the streets, burning buildings to the ground, and attacking the police, starts like this.
NEW: Video & photos provided to @FoxNews via @GraceCarnathan, who is in Paris right now, give a look at the ongoing riots there, with fires burning in multiple areas of the city. One mob shown with Soviet Union & pro-Communist flags.

Florida's building boom is historic. The workforce behind it is getting older and smaller.
For every five workers who retire in construction and the skilled trades, only two step in to replace them. Alex Myers is one of the relatively few stepping in. He started as an electrical apprentice at Tri-City Electrical Contractors earning $14 an hour. At 26, he's an assistant project manager making close to six figures, with no college debt. "Let's just say 14-year-old Alex would be proud of where I am today," he says.
If you were 18 again, would you choose a four-year degree or an apprenticeship?

Replying to @ABCofFL
@ABCofFL and @abcflgulf were proud to host Florida’s next Governor, @ByronDonalds, for an important roundtable discussion on affordability and the issues impacting Florida’s families and businesses.
Floridians work hard to build a good life. Keeping up with the cost of living shouldn’t be the hardest part.
In Tampa, I sat down with residents, small business owners, and insurance professionals for a conversation about the costs Floridians are facing, from property taxes and insurance premiums to housing and hurricane preparedness.
Florida families work hard for what they have. They deserve solutions that help them keep it.

Thank you to all our first responders who stepped up during Hurricane Isaias. I’ve had the privilege of working alongside many of you over the years, both as CFO, State Fire Marshal, and now as Congressman. Times like these remind me just how blessed Northwest Florida is to have people like you looking out for our home. Thank you for all you do!

Good job by state/local agencies and private sector partners delivering relief to impacted communities.
Since Hurricane Isaias made landfall a week ago, more than 1,600 response missions have been completed. We are focused on delivering the critical supplies and resources needed to get people back on their feet and recover from this storm. We are operating 11 Points of Distribution across the Panhandle, which have given out:
✓ More than 270,000 shelf-stable meals
✓ Nearly half a million boxes of water
✓ Nearly 225,000 gallons of fuel
✓ More than 26,000 bags of ice and tarps
As recovery efforts continue, Florida has submitted a Major Disaster Declaration request to the federal government. We are requesting Public and Individual Assistance to help support Panhandle residents, local governments, and infrastructure affected by the storm.
In addition, we are now partnering with Emergency RV to provide temporary housing for Floridians displaced by Hurricane Isaias. We will be doing everything we can to help these families rebuild their homes, and in the meantime, we want them to be able to keep living in their communities with as little disruption to their daily lives as possible.

THE NEXT GENERATION OF SPACE LEADERS SHOULD TRAIN RIGHT HERE IN FLORIDA!
My STARS Act would establish a U.S. Space Academy to train future astronauts, engineers and space professionals.
Florida already has NASA, Space Force, world-class launch facilities and a thriving aerospace industry. Why build somewhere else what we already have here?
Florida is America’s launchpad. Let’s make it the training ground for our future in space. 🚀🌴

🚁 A first responder’s work begins long before a storm makes landfall. Teams prepare equipment, coordinate with partners & position resources to ensure they’re ready to respond when it’s safe to do so.
From search & rescue & emergency medical care to evacuations, road closures & assisting those in immediate need, first responders play a critical role before, during & after a disaster.
To every first responder serving Floridians: thank you for your courage, commitment & dedication to keeping our communities safe. 🤝
