"South Florida activists gathered in downtown Fort Lauderdale’s Peter Feldman Park on a hot Saturday afternoon in an effort to put the abortion question to the people in 2024."
Imagine issuing a travel advisory against your own state due to the ongoing personal health and safety concerns brought on by anti-LGBTQ legislation, book and school curriculum censorship, and even more relaxed gun laws.
This is a whole new low. Disgusting. I’m honestly glad I decided not to visit when I had the opportunity to last year.

@MikeDunnAuthor Yesterday the #SunSentinel in south #Florida published a report that was totally opposite to this. It made me question the integrity of that newspaper.
"“I believe this goes against the #Christian beliefs that I hold closely, and that #PBA claims to hold closely,” he wrote. “... Because PBA took these actions, I will have no choice but to pursue my legal options to fight back and show PBA, and other institutions, that they cannot get away with this.”"

."Three people walk into a bar: A Proud Boy, a Banker, and a Florida legislator who has never seen a balance sheet. When they stumble out, the Proud Boy has Florida bank funding for his next [terrorism] adventure, and the lawmaker is the reason why." Harsh editorial from the #sunsentinel about a secret #tax on city and country budgets in #florida. http://enewspaper.sun-sentinel.com/infinity/article_share.aspx?guid=1e33ead5-97ea-4697-ad91-166704506840
"Geller said the next chair needs to understand the nuances of #Florida voters, recognizing that African American and Caribbean American voters have different interests and Hispanic voters aren’t monolithic. Cuban-Americans have different outlooks than people who moved from Puerto Rico, who have different priorities than people who emigrated from Mexico, Nicaragua or Venezuela."

Lights out? Elon Musk tunnel idea getting dimmer in #FortLauderdale
"In June, a prior commission agreed to pay The Boring Company up to $375,000 so its team of experts could determine whether #SouthFlorida’s terrain can safely accommodate a pair of 2.7-mile tunnels and whether the project made financial sense."

If the governor weren't actively tailoring #highered to his tastes then these surveys might be "interesting". With how the situation is now the surveys are more like a threat.

Plan to build 1,000 luxury homes in West #BocaRaton in doubt after new commissioners elected
"But when GL Homes goes before the board in May, it may not have the same support. Weinroth lost his re-election bid to Marci Woodward, while Sara Baxter won an open race for McKinlay’s seat, who was term-limited."

#Drag shows are part of why tourists come here ffs
From #FortLauderdale Mayor:
“This is not the first time Fort Lauderdale has hosted a drag queen show. It’s become part of the American culture,” Trantalis said. “It’s entertainment — and that’s how it needs to be viewed.”

"A legal fight has erupted over a Washington D.C., police officer who was communicating with Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio, of Miami, in the run-up to the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack that could shape the outcome of the upcoming trial of Tarrio and other far-right extremists."
