Marco Rubio appeared on one of the Sunday political talk shows on, uh, Sunday (THERE ARE TOO MANY OF THEM!) and slammed, ripped, dunked on, smacked down, put a hurtin’ to, Jay-Z and his recent decision to not only visit Cuba, but to also be unapologetic about it in a…
Marco Rubio is about to go all-in on being The Guy For The GOPers in 2016, more so than he already is The Guy For The GOPers in 2016. And he’s doing it via the thorny immigration reform policy which, just like every other damn thing in Washington, has split…
Over the last few months, Delray Beach has been torn up by a debate over the Arts Garage, a popular multi-purpose space in the city’s downtown area. The issue is whether a law firm should be allowed to outbid the non-profit on the high-end real estate. If you’ve been plugged…
Florida Gov. Rick Scott and Texas Gov. Rick Perry brought their zany comedy-duo routine to the Palm Beach Strategic Forum at the Palm Beach County Convention Center on Monday when they both took the stage at the same time. It was like Lex Luthor and Montogmery Burns together in one…

President Barack Obama called California Attorney General Kamala Harris on Thursday night to apologize for calling her “by far the best-looking attorney general in the country” during a Democratic National Committee fundraiser on Thursday afternoon in Atherton, California.

Lake Worth has long been a hotbed for civil disobedience and a mecca for activists, and this weekend some locals are helping organize a group of “womyn (transgender or cisgender), transgender men, and genderqueer & gender-variant people” (but no cisgendered men please!) from across the state who will converge at…
Much to the harrumph of Florida senior citizens everywhere, it looks like internet cafés are closer to being no mas in the Sunshine State. On Tuesday afternoon, a Florida Senate panel voted unanimously to shutter internet cafés and senior arcades…
Republican state senator in Florida Alan Hays is a hero! Hays, who once filed legislation to keep public buses from stopping on streets because one time he got stuck in traffic behind one, says Islam is gonna Sharia Law all up the State of Florida like polio. And if Sharia…
In his never-ending, undaunted quest to be the new face of the GOP by being the old face of the GOP, Marco Rubio will add to his nonbigoted hatred of gays, his marginalizing of women, and his denial of scientific fact ways by fighting off any and all attempts to…
This is a bit of a guess, but we think it’s safe to say Broward Republican Chair Tom Truex didn’t change his Facebook photo this week to one of those now-ubiquitous red equal signs. Truex — a former Davie mayor who recently took the reins from Rick Petrocelli, private investigator…

We recently introduced you to Chris Brennan, the Water Taxi employee who was fired after he made a YouTube video defending the six-story-tall, nearly 100-year-old rain tree — which will be moved if developer Asi Cymbal is permitted to build the Marina Lofts development in downtown Fort Lauderdale. Cymbal is…
Rick Scott really, really, still very much wants people to pee into a cup randomly if he’s going to give them financial help or let government workers keep getting a paycheck. Last month, the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals in Atlanta unanimously ruled that an earlier ruling by a lower…
Marco Rubio and Jeb Bush have seemingly been jockeying for position under the proverbial basket for the proverbial rebound that is the run to the White House in 2016 — particularly in Florida, which is not only a vital swing state but also has the potential to screw up every…
We get a lot of emails from Rick Scott. Like a lot. He never forgets his friendly neighborhood media, and he’s always appointing someone to some bureaucracy somewhere.

We were remiss not to tell you about this sooner, but on the last day of February, a Palm Beach County judge handed down yet another win to Fane Lozman, the Marine Corps pilot turned millionaire stockbroker turned houseboat owner turned hero for the Little Man everywhere. Lozman made national…
Rick Scott continues to be unliked by many amounts of people, despite the fact that he’s changed his mind about things like Medicaid expansion and despite adding more early voting days and declaring his love for Florida panthers.
