Ready, aim, backfire!
The Republican Party of Florida’s new ad blasts Blaise Ingoglia’s Democratic opponent for supporting a tax hike - one that the GOP drafted, that Ingoglia voted for and that DeSantis signed into law.
These people think you’re stupid.

Dolores Huerta champion of workers’ rights—a woman of courage and a friend. RIP
Javier E. Fernández retweeted
The great Dolores Huerta was the real moral leader, hero and conscience of the Farm Workers movement.
She was also a trusted confidant and supporter of RFK and incredible activist.
Had the pleasure of meeting her several times. May she rest in peace.
Interesting…🤔 So are you now rescinding your budget request @votefor_rosie? I am sure @MayorDaniella would agree that we all need to do more with less. No?
Apparently she subscribes to the her “Comandante’s” actos de repudio (acts of repudiation) playbook. #theFemaleFidel
It is an embarrassment to Miami that María Elvira Salazar would attack Hakeem Jeffries for simply stopping for Cuban coffee. What’s next? Denying service to people because of their politics?
Hasn’t Trump visited El Arepazo while his administration engages with Delcy Rodríguez and the Venezuelan regime?
Por favor! Spare us the selective outrage for political points.
Miami is a diverse, dynamic, cosmopolitan city. We should all feel free to enjoy a cortadito and pastelitos regardless of political ideology!
A BIG thank you to CAO Bakery for welcoming visitors from across the country. I’ll be stopping by soon!
Stop making Miami look intolerant and ignorant. We are better than this.
At the rate @realDonaldTrump is managing our country’s inflation, we are going to need rolls of those coins to buy a ☕️ anywhere. #winning
Instead of a 🌊, it seems @pepperdine only produced a ripple in the case of @KatieZacharia.
Congratulations to Pepperdine alumna @KatieZacharia on her appointment as White House press secretary! A graduate of Seaver College and @PeppLaw, Katie exemplifies Pepperdine's commitment to preparing students for exceptional lives of purpose, service, and leadership. We wish her every success in this important role. Go Waves! 🌊

Trump says he brought in “$21 trillion” of investment vs. “less than $1 trillion” under Biden.
Actual business investment: $14.5 trillion under Biden, $6.7 trillion so far under Trump.

For the average Floridian, this means they increased taxes on you by more than a billion dollars while giving tax breaks to the wealthy & large corporations.
The Governor was so proud of this bill, he signed it in the dead of the night!

President Trump’s decision to lift sanctions on Russian fuel amidst Putin’s ongoing and brutal attacks on civilian targets in Ukraine makes no sense and is a betrayal of the legacy and leadership of the late Senator Lindsey Graham.
While Ukraine fights for its survival, Putin’s war machine continues to prosecute his terrorist war on civilian populations and innocent Ukrainians are dying every day.
Now, Instead of implementing the tough sanctions Lindsey Graham fought to his last breath to enact, President Trump has announced the United States is lifting sanctions on Russian energy, fueling the Putin’s war machine.
As I saw firsthand in Ukraine last month, Putin is losing this war. Ukraine has fought the Russian military to a standstill and reinvented warfare with drones taking the fight into the heart of Russia.
America should not be throwing a lifeline to Putin’s war machine. Now is the time to stand strong against Russian aggression as we did during the first Trump administration.
Putin doesn’t want peace. Putin wants Ukraine. I have no doubt that if Putin overruns Ukraine, it will only be a matter of time until Russia’s military crosses a border that our troops will have to deal with him.
America is the Leader of the Free World. For our National Security, for the security of our Allies in Europe including Ukraine, President Trump should rescind this deal immediately and return to the strong policies of our four years in the White House; impose harsh sanctions on any nation purchasing Russian energy and work with our allies to ensure Ukraine has the military support it needs to repel and defeat this Russian invasion once and for all.

Jack Smith: “it’s inconceivable to me how you can pardon people who beat police officers… and then vilify the officers”
If @tedcruz was a judge, the motto in his courtroom would read, “We who labor seek NOT the truth.”
.@SenTedCruz (R-TX) grills Jack Smith on subpoenas to Republican phone records and whether he sought donor fundraising data: "You know damn well you did. You've been questioned about the the checks that you guys got. You know the answer so why don't you answer the question?"

Roundup of local coverage by @Fla_Pol shows multiple city & counties approving new budgets that are above the "rollback" rate - meaning these local officials are voting to take in extra tax $ for the coming year. Which is an interesting stance right before Amendment 3 vote

The @MiamiHerald endorsed us because I’ll do what María Elvira Salazar won’t: stand up for the people of District 27.
She simply doesn’t show up. And if you don’t show up, you can’t fight for the people.
I will show up. And I will fight for you.

Ten days ago, the Florida Senate threatened reporters with criminal charges to bury a report you paid for. Today, those reporters published it anyway.
Now you can see what they were hiding. Insurance companies claiming losses while sending millions in profit to affiliated companies out of state. One insurer reported a 9 million dollar loss while its affiliates earned 176 million. They cry poverty to raise your rates, and the state helped them hide it.
I served on the Senate Banking and Insurance Committee. I saw exactly how they operate. As your CFO, I will use the audit authority of this office to keep dragging this into the light.
Read it yourself, then ask why they fought so hard to keep it from you. orlandosentinel.com/2026/09/…

This struck a nerve because every homeowner already knew something was rotten. Now you can see it in black and white. Keep sharing, they counted on you never seeing this👇🏽

Statistically tied and heavily under-resourced and you won’t debate? Makes no sense. For the sake of the party and his campaign, I hope he reconsiders.
This is the second major strategic mistake @DavidJollyFL has made (not going with a Hispanic LG being the first).
It is, and always has been, Jolly's Achilles' Heel. He's too clever by half.
I could be wrong, but the turn-the-sub-into-the-torpedos strategy only works once.
