The countdown to #GroundhogDay is on. Tune in to The Weather Channel on Monday, Feb. 2, for live coverage from Punxsutawney. Plus, our special correspondent, @thechuckburrows, is joining the fun. Whether it’s six more weeks of winter or an early spring, we’ve got you covered.

Scoopage - @KevinSteeleFL (now saying he's) launching bid for Florida CFO in January. Kick-off will take place in Tampa on either Jan. 7 or 8 ... supposedly with @SenRickScott as a special guest. Supporters of Steele are receiving this text message today. #FlaPol

Do they trade on insider info? Maybe Did we build the first way to connect your broker to trade alongside them just in case? Absolutely 🫡 Bc if you can't beat them, join them. link.joinautopilot.com/eXKr/nlkdkvaa That's how ^

Unfortunately, Detroit Tigers fans staying up for the resolution of the game in Chicago might be waiting a while for this persistent rain band to shift. Tigers up 2-1 but scored in Top of 9th, so uh oh!

So proud of our Chief Operating Officer, Will Watts, who received the highly regarded Ben Watts Award at the recent @ACECFL Transportation Conference. There is no one more deserving than him. His leadership and hard work are leaving a lasting legacy on our entire industry.

🚨 JUST IN: Trump says the Boeing 747 gift from Qatar is "NOT TO ME!" and says "only a FOOL would not accept this gift on behalf of our country" "It is a gift from a Nation, Qatar, that we have successfully defended for many years. It will be used by our Government as a temporary Air Force One, until such time as our new Boeings, which are very late on delivery, arrive."

Thank you to Chairman @RepSamGraves and @TransportGOP for the warm welcome! Excited to be a part of the team.

Happy New Year! Interstellar is now on Netflix.

@PeterSchorschFL @LewisHamilton @MercedesAMGF1 @taylorswift13 @tswifterastour Make him stay, Murph!

#InterstellarRerelease is in theaters, @LewisHamilton is racing for @MercedesAMGF1 for the final time, and it’s the last weekend of @taylorswift13’s @tswifterastour, and probably the best weekend of the Christmas season. My feed just can’t handle all of this!

Congratulations to @SeanDuffyWI on your nomination to be the next @USDOT Secretary. @FTBAInc stands ready to work with you in streamlining bureaucracy in delivering infrastructure faster and cheaper.

🚨 NEW: A city in Florida has just voted to remove fluoride from its drinking water, cites RFK Jr. - NBC "Mr. Kennedy has made it well known and has publicly said that he wants fluoride out of the water around the entire country," one commissioner said. The city of Winter Haven's commission voted 3-2 this week to remove fluoride by Jan. 1, or as soon as possible after that date. RFK has said that he believes fluoride is "a poison." "It causes cancers, of course it causes your bones to deteriorate. It causes severe IQ loss."

Thank you, @aashtospeaks for the opportunity to share this video at the annual conference this year. Working alongside our fellow DOTs this storm season has been an honor and privilege, from FDOT deploying to @myTDOT and @NCDOT after Hurricane Helene, and Alabama DOT, @La_DOTD, @SCDOTPress and TNDOT deploying to Florida after Hurricane Milton. Recovery is hard, but their support has made the process easier. Thank you all for your support, partnership and friendship in these times.

Wholesome: Bills rookie WR Keon Coleman showed Amari Cooper what route to run because he didn't know the play was called. Cooper proceeded to catch his first TD in Buffalo.

Buckle up! We’re off to PortMiami. 🚗 💨 #ThrowbackThursday

Proud is understatement. That boy just played his heart out. The future is bright man.

This morning I announced the groundbreaking of the Fruitville Interchange restructuring at I-75 in Sarasota. This is one of 20 major infrastructure projects under the Moving Florida Forward initiative, which will reduce congestion throughout our state.   I also awarded $18 million in grants to improve Florida's supply chain network and expand aggregate materials storage. Florida will ensure it is working proactively to insulate against the difficult federal economic environment.

I post this every year on 9-11. No words. #remebering911

@SLRoss528 @PeterSchorschFL Good luck dude!

First prize at the World Series of Poker is a million bucks. Does it have my name on it? I don't know. But, I'm gonna find out.

Also in the Alabama ruling on frozen embryos is this: “Doctors must create just one embryo at a time. Each embryo, no matter how poor its quality, must be transferred. Only one embryo may be transferred at a time. If the cycle fails, the whole process must start all over again. IVF patients would have to accept the transfer of a single low-quality embryo that is certain to fail—and to do so one embryo at a time. Each transfer requires months’ worth of expensive medication, including injectable, both before and after the procedure. And each failed cycle requires the patient to start all over again. Most states (including Alabama) do not require insurance to cover IVF, and each cycle can cost up to $30,000. This would force patients—the ones who can afford it—to undergo doomed, single-embryo transfers, one by one.” If you know ANYONE who has been through IVF, you know exactly how fucking cruel this is.
