It's time to end unconstitutional religious invocations at the Duval County Public Schools' board meetings. jaxtoday.org/2026/03/16/duv…

Friends, I’ve been around politics for over 50 years. I’ve never seen anything as brazenly crooked and corrupt as what Trump and his cronies did today.

The slush fund. The ballroom. The IRS get-out-of-jail-free card. Donald Trump isn’t serving the American people — he’s serving himself. And he thinks you’re dumb enough to fall for it.

@BenBeckerANjax So Carrico wanted to put his boss at the Boys and Girls Club on the JEA Board to help the JEA Board to agree to give the land to the Boys and Girls Club rather than the BGC having to pay a lot of money for it. Do I have it right?

@NateM_Tributary @TheFloridaTrib @wjxt4 The plot thickens....

This isn’t hard: taxpayers should not be forced to fund a Christian nationalist rally. The "split" comes from people trying to rewrite the Constitution and redefine America as a religious nation when it was founded on secular government and religious freedom for all.

Reminder: the Constitution says the government represents all Americans, not just Christians. DHS should focus on homeland security, not Sunday sermons.

@GatorGirlFL1 @AGGancarski Renner is "trans"? That might not go over well with his base.

I think Paul Renner has excellent detailed policy plans which are trans partisan- for home owners property taxes, for health freedom, AI perimeters, Parental rights, and protecting FL’s environment, esp from Hyperscale Data Centers. Paul is a Floridian, Byron is from NY and Collins from Montana. Renner is a watchman for FL, for our water supply, especially the FL Aquifer. You continue to frame your articles against Paul Renner though you write about him. He is a stand out human being, a leader, man of graciousness and integrity. You know he has a sterling resume, is selfless veteran, is the most qualified legislatively and to run the state economy. The other major candidates have not accomplished a fraction of Paul’s life resume. Btw, No one I know eats at Applebees.

Yes let’s get in the Time Machine before 10 million of the biggest idiots — er, political refugees —- in this country moved to this state to buy subdivision houses in swamps and eat Applebees.

@AGGancarski It's funny to watch people who don't know you go after you.

I don’t advocate for any candidate. I do mock delusional behavior.

NEW: The initial installment of the long-awaited $608 million federal reimbursement for “Alligator Alcatraz” is expected to hit the state of Florida’s bank account in a matter of days, according to correspondence obtained by @TheFloridaTrib/@hellokatepayne floridatrib.org/2026/05/18/fed…

This is outright theft. Trump is stealing $1.7 BILLION of your money to set up a totally unprecedented, first-in-American-history political slush fund that he can use to dole out cash to win loyalty and favors for him and his family.

Yesterday we staged and joined protests in DC against Trump's Christian nationalist 'Rededicate 250' event, with @FaithfulAmerica, @intrfthalliance, @seculardotorg. That's because in America, we celebrate democracy, not theocracy. 🗽🇺🇸 #America250 #Rededicate250 #FFRF

FL families deserve a system where every child is protected by the same expectations for transparency & accountability—no matter where they attend school. Accountability helps parents make informed choices and helps students succeed. Sign the pledge 👉 bit.ly/3R8H5Gp

When a federal agency tasked with protecting all Americans decides to mandate a specific religious worldview, it ceases to protect democracy and begins to threaten it.

72 years ago today in Brown v. Board of Education, the Supreme Court declared that racial segregation is unconstitutional under the 14th Amendment. The fight for civil rights continues.

Just a reminder: God, Jesus, Bible, Christians, church, messiah, etc. are found nowhere in the United States Constitution.

No — “one Nation under God” is not who we’ve “always been.” What has defined America from the beginning is religious freedom: a nation where people of every faith and no faith are equal citizens. The government shouldn’t rewrite history to promote religion.
