I’d like to report a robbery: it’s the City of Miami budget! These Miami Mafiosos just passed a $3.7 BILLION budget filled with grift and graft. The commission didn’t double in size, the population didn’t double, the city workforce didn’t double, lord knows the quality and quantity of our services haven’t doubled — the cost of government DOUBLED. This mayor and commission are going to bankrupt the city — while enriching themselves and their cronies… #BecauseMiami

It’s not every day you get to call an accused serial sex pest mayor an “accused serial sex pest” to his face… While an alarming number of law enforcement officers nationwide are getting suspended, fired and/or arrested for abusing Flock cameras to stalk their exes, Miami Beach Mayor Steven Meiner and Police Chief Wayne Jones are fighting Florida’s new ban on Flock cams and license plate readers (LPRs). No wonder: Meiner left his job at the SEC while reportedly under investigation for being a creeper and allegedly sexually harassing three female co-workers, and Chief Jones was once arrested for battery and kidnapping after breaking into his estranged wife’s home. The city has a major civil rights problem and is currently defending two First Amendment retaliation lawsuits over the mayor and chief’s abuse of power — weaponizing government to stifle dissent and silence critics.

Miami: Third World Government — Fourth World Infrastructure #BecauseMiami GTA VI has come early with the second construction equipment collapse in five weeks in the over-developed Brickell neighborhood, this time on the site of Ken Griffin’s future 52-story Citadel headquarters. Miami-Dade is home to some of the deadliest structural failures in the United States. When will it stop?

Miami civil rights legend Dr. Marvin Dunn speaks out about Mayor Eileen Higgins' betrayal of Black voters who overwhelmingly supported her in last year's election. Dr. Dunn endorsed and campaigned for Higgins and now feels his "high hopes" have been dashed after she: * celebrated her first Black History Month as mayor by firing every Black employee in the mayor's office; *removed Christine King from her position as the first Black female chair of the city commission; *reassigned 26-year city hall veteran Quatisha Oguntoyinbo-Rashad from her leadership position at the Environmental Resources Division (Tree Protection); *and successfully lobbied against a $25 million federal grant to help Miami's historic Black Overtown neighborhood. Dunn is a prominent longtime Miami historian, author, civil rights activist and Florida International University professor emeritus who has dedicated his life to documenting and teaching Florida's African American history.

#BREAKING: Miami real estate hustler Rishi Kapoor was sentenced to 11 years and four months in federal prison after pleading guilty to money-laundering and payroll-tax conspiracy in an alleged $85 million fraud scheme. Kapoor reportedly used investor money to buy a mansion, yacht, McLaren and TWO mayors: Miami's Francis Suarez (aka Ponzi Postalita) and Coral Gables's Vince Lago. Which domino will fall next? #BecauseMiami

Gabelas Gone Wild: Miami Mafia Mayhem! All hell breaks loose at Bayfront Park Management Trust yesterday where an unhinged Commissioner Miguel Gabela and his wife Mariela lash out at members of the public and press — after his henchman board member Carlos Martell charges at me and grabs me, committing battery in a public meeting… #BecauseMiami

The @MiamiHerald had this story 7 weeks ago and refused to cover it. Miami Commissioner @miguelgabela is abusing power and the courts by filing a frivolous defamation lawsuit against an award-winning journalist to intimidate critics and silence dissent. #BecauseMiami

Translation: “They’re trying to cover up our cover-up, bro!” #BecauseMiami

Miami Mayor Eileen Higgins has a problem with Black people — particularly Black women. One incident could be accidental. Two; unfortunate. Three? Coincidence, perhaps... But for her first seven months in office, it's been a continuous series of overt acts of disrespect and even outright disenfranchisement of a community who helped elect Higgins by a huge margin — including screwing Miami’s Historic Black Overtown neighborhood out of a $25 million federal grant… #BecauseMiami

In an October 2024 video, Florida Republican Rep. Fabian Basabe promised to resign if the allegations of sexual harassment, battery and defamation were proven true... Yesterday, a civil jury found him liable for sexually harassing, battering, and defaming his male former Florida House aide and intern, and ordered Basabe to pay them nearly half a million dollars in damages. He is running for re-election in House District 106 which includes Miami Beach, Surfside, Bal Harbour, Bay Harbor, Indian Creek Village, Sunny Isles, North Bay Village, and parts of North Miami, Golden Beach, Aventura and City of Miami. Will he resign?
