My DeSantis campaign post-mortem. The worst presidential campaign in recent history, staffed by sycophantic hyper-online weirdoes, mismanaged by grifter consultants trying to skirt finance laws, and starring a candidate who couldn’t stop alienating voters: truthout.org/articles/desan…

Miami Mayor Francis Suarez is caught up in FIVE corruption investigations — including an FBI probe into payments of $10k per month to fast-track projects for a developer and a state ethics investigation on high dollar gifts from lobbyists triggered by a complaint I filed.

The asylum ban announced today is an illegal action that largely replicates Trump’s asylum ban, which was blocked by a federal judge who said the president is “not a monarch.” Hopefully this overreach of executive power is struck down by the courts again. politico.com/news/2024/06/0…

We spoke with McKenna Schueler about the Florida Legislature banning heat stress protections for outdoor workers during a record breaking summer and with Zohra Khorashi about the City of Doral’s 189 degree turn on their resolution calling for peace in Gaza: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/its…

Centrist parties in Europe have increasingly adopted the anti-immigrant positions of far-right parties and it’s blown up on them, legitimizing extremist policies and alienating voters. The illegal asylum ban by the Biden administration will do the same. theguardian.com/world/commenti…

A lot of partisans defending the asylum ban by saying it was needed since the recent border bill failed. So the alternative is an anti-immigrant bill with right wing framework on enforcement being adopted as a law without any path to citizenship. That’s not any better.

You might remember how City of Doral was the first (and only) municipality in Miami-Dade to pass a resolution calling for an “end to hostilities” in Gaza. Here’s the story of how the city succumbed to pressure and did a 180, from the advocate who helped to pass the resolution.

New from me: Biden opposed Trump’s illegal asylum ban. Now he’s implementing it. It’s the same mistake centrist political parties in Europe committed by adopting anti-immigrant positions of the far right, only to see it backfire by legitimizing extremists truthout.org/articles/biden…
