“¡Cobarde! ¡Mudo!” Coward! Voiceless! These are the names the narrator calls Congressman Carlos Gimenez in a video released Thursday that shames the former Miami-Dade mayor for his silence and complicity on Donald Trump’s immigration policies, including the rollback of protected status for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans and Venezuelans, many of whom live in his community. “Where […]
It’s not just about immigration and national security. It’s not just about veteran’s rights and climate change. It’s not just about education and the raiding of treasury records and the tariff wars that are going to raise consumer prices and the manipulation of the stock market and the tanking the global economy for personal gain […]
It’s been 19 days. Less than three weeks ago, President Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th president of the United States, the de facto leader of the free world. But it seems like it’s been several months already. Maybe a year. Ladra is exhausted. Numb. Scared. Angry. Dumbfounded. All at the same time. […]
Florida State Rep. and House Speaker Daniel “Danny” Perez attended some of the inauguration festivities in Washington D.C. last month, as did many other South Florida electeds who were there.

It popped up overnight along the Palmetto Expressway in the Miami Lakes area near the Northwest 67th Avenue exit, just north of Hialeah: A billboard comparing former president Donald Trump to the late Cuban dictator Fidel Castro. “No to dictators — no to Trump,” it says in Spanish, with The Donald and the dead oppressive […]
Nod in sheriff’s race causes dueling GOP videos One would think that former President Donald Trump is busy enough, what with the hush money trial in full swing, the first of four criminal trials he is facing for more than 90 felony charges. One would think he’d also lie low, particularly in micro local elections […]
The extreme six-week abortion ban goes into effect in Florida Wednesday, so it’s a perfect time to remind voters that Donald Trump and the rest of the MAGA Republicans, like Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, are the ones responsible for ripping away women’s reproductive rights. And just in time for the presidential election, the Democratic National […]
The Miami-Dade Sheriff’s primary might be over before a ballot is cast. Assistant Director of Investigative Services Rosanna “Rosie” Cordero-Stutz, the highest ranking county police officer on the ballot, just got the mother of all endorsements for any Republican: former President Donald Trump. Joe Sanchez, the presumed GOP frontrunner, must be crying in his cafecito. […]
It’s a done deal. The Hialeah City Council will consider a street naming Tuesday, but it’s all but on the map.
