Because Miami

The City of Miami Beach has a First Amendment problem... I've been trying to ask accused serial sex pest mayor Steven Meiner questions for months and city staff like Daphne Saba ignore emails, delay public records requests and sneak him around city hall and out the back door to avoid the public and press. My roots in this city go back generations and it's a tragedy how Meiner and his Tonton Macoute have destroyed our beautiful island town. There are a lot of decent hard-working people working at the city, but they're being held hostage by corrupt and incompetent leadership. Meiner, city mismanager Eric Carpenter, city attorney/mob lawyer Ricardo Dopico, police chief Wayne Jones, and city commissioners have sent a clear message that ethics can be ignored, laws broken and the Constitution violated — without consequence…

“It's a Miami Mafia Mockery": At this week's city commission meeting, I call on Mayor Eileen Higgins to keep her campaign promises of a "deep dive" into the city's out of control budget and auditing the $400 million (plus interest!) Miami Forever Bonds — before she makes us pay

ROBBERY: Miami Mayor Eileen Higgins promised a “deep dive” to find waste and misuse in the city budget — which has DOUBLED in the last 5 years with 77% going to salaries and benefits. Instead, Higgins wants a HALF-A-BILLION DOLLAR credit card while we’re already drowning in debt from Marlins Park and other high interest bonds. Salaries for Miami city employees are up 54% and benefits up 62% in the last three years and the number of city hall insiders making over $200,000 has DOUBLED in two years. While regular Miami residents — with a median household income of $66,000 — have only seen a 2-3% increase in wages per year. And now Higgins, city manager James Reyes (salary: $475,000 and lives in Broward), Commissioner Damian Pardo and city attorney George Wysong (salary: $417,000 and doesn’t live in the city) are covering up public records that document how much taxpayer money they actually pay out to city workers. #BecauseMiami

Surveillance video shows 12/27 abduction of tourist rape victim, who had to bite attacker’s penis to escape on South Beach. Accused knapper, Alix Innocent, arrested, after posting videos bragging about knocking out rape victim’s boyfriend, per PD. @wsvn @JhollyW #Exclusive story:

MDW/EDGE are not reliable pollsters — they are political grifters who release bogus numbers to fool Democrats into donating money to their clients/candidates. These same con artists put out a poll in August 2024 claiming all their Miami-Dade constitutional officer candidates and Kamala Harris were ahead by 14-15 percent. Instead, they all LOST by about that same amount. That’s a 30-point swing! Do not trust anything these liars say. #BecauseMiami

The genius decision by City of Miami officials to build a major sports stadium next to Miami International Airport, in one of the most traffic congested areas of Miami-Dade, is now unsurprisingly forcing airlines to send warning to passengers about traffic-related delays.

Miami Police shoot, wound man across from Ultra Music Festival… The incident occurred Saturday morning around 7AM outside the YVE Hotel on Biscayne Blvd. & NE 2nd St. after officers responded to a report of a man in his 20s acting erratically. Officers attempted to de-escalate

Today in Miami Fed Court for money laundering/foreign agent trial of Marco Rubio pal David Rivera: Juror said they went to high school with Rubio and can’t be fair because “I know Rubio” and “you can’t trust a word that comes out of his mouth.” Juror was stricken. #BecauseMiami

"This is America, right?" Miami Beach Mayor and Accused Serial Sex Pest Steven Meiner continues his war on the First Amendment, sending cops to a woman's house for posting a mean Facebook comment, and now the city wants me to pay over $1,500 for public records about it — a pathetic ham-fisted cover-up attempt #BecauseMiami

We’re already prepping public record requests for all the elected officials who get free Natty tickets. #BecauseMiami
