The funding request listed only one “documented show of support” to justify this $3 million appropriation - a “Letter of support from the village manager of Key Biscayne.” Except the manager said he never wrote such a thing. And that was just the beginning orlandosentinel.com/2023/09/21/car…

"Despite multiple requests by The Gainesville Sun over the past couple of months, DeSantis' office has refused to supply any records from applicants for the board in defiance of the state's public record laws."

This administration has lost so many legal challenges and concealed or delayed so many public records that some people might think this is normal. It is not. The public should never be denied public info - no matter how much a politician fears its release. orlandosentinel.com/2023/10/11/des…

The legislators who approved this suspicious $3 million project may be silent. But leaders of the tiny town that was bogusly used to justify the request are speaking up. "South Florida city fires lobbyist over Orlando Rep. Amesty’s request for $3 million" orlandosentinel.com/2023/10/27/car…

Stunning revelation that Fannie Mae has a secret blacklist of condos that condos didn't know about until they applied for financing. That's about to change.

The older I get, the more I believe there is nothing a digital site can do to deliver information more powerfully than a printed page. Can't replicate with a screen the emotional intake of this image.
