Reporter @WLRN. Unionizing w/ @WeMakeWLRN @SAGAFTRA 🇨🇺-🇺🇸. I like digging up dirt, figuratively and literally. Pro-🇵🇷🏴. Tips: [email protected]
Miami, FL
Joined March 2011
We are unionizing with @SAGAFTRA. Proud to stand together with my colleagues at @WeMakeWLRN in asking management of @WLRN to voluntarily recognize our union so we can begin the process of collective bargaining. Because the union makes us strong.
Today, we — the hosts, reporters, producers, digital content creators and others — of WLRN are proud to announce our intent to unionize with @SAGAFTRA, becoming the first public radio station in Florida to do so. #WeMakeWLRN

The DDA literally employs people to sweep the streets of downtown Miami. They also do economic development - giving money to mega-corporations to move their business downtown. No one mentions that a single corporate landlord owns half of downtown. meaning abandoned properties.
Just a walk through Downtown — the part the DDA doesn’t show you. While they hand our money to billion-dollar brands, this is our reality. #wewantout #ddashakedown #sosdowntownmiami #brickell . @miguelgabela @Damianpardo8 @downtownMIA @IamChristineEsq @FrancisSuarez @tessriski

NEW: We found that Miami-Dade has been in breach of a federal court settlement for almost 3 years -- which should protect some jail inmates from being handed to ICE. Meanwhile, the mayor is asking permission to tour Krome - where many are being sent.

NEW w/ @wilkinebrutus: The vast majority of new ICE agreements w/ local police allowing them to do immigration enforcement during routine traffic stops are in Florida. People studying this since 9/11 say it will gut trust between community and police.

This would also mean all the cities that haven't signed an ICE agreement yet - 300 something of them - are somehow someway, overnight breaking the law now. It would also redefine the meaning of "agreement" because you have to agree to an agreement for it to be . an agreement.

If this *interpretation* sticks, every single law enforcement agency in Florida is now required to train officers to join an ICE program that didn't even exist a few weeks ago . based on a law that was passed in 2019. There is no statute that explicitly says this.
Today, I sent a letter to the Fort Myers City Council. Sanctuary policies are illegal in Florida. Your vote last night makes you a sanctuary city. Fix this problem or face the consequences.

Updated w/ comment from Tax Collector's office, which made deal w/ FHP. They say it has nothing to do with immigration, but that safety issues may have increased bc "heightened tensions" surrounding Trump's orders to remove "gangs, terrorists, and illegal criminals" from the US.
NEW from me:. New powers will allow Florida police to interrogate, arrest suspected undocumented immigrants. Plus: DMV offices across MIami-Dade could soon have immigration officials permanently stationed there.

Actually wow that this is happening.
Fla House Speaker @Daniel_PerezFL just announced he's creating 4 workgroups to look at budget vetoes exercised by @GovRonDeSantis last year. "Upon conclusion of its work, each workgroup will submit its recommendation for further legislative action, if any. " to Perez & others.

Rubio in a press conference in Guatemala today said Trump's plan to clear Gaza of all Palestinians is an act of generosity, and that at some undetermined point in the future Palestinians would be let back in after first being removed .

Reminds me that shortly after Fidel Castro took power he banned race-based organizations -- mostly Afro-Cuban organizations -- and he constantly said that was because racism had been "defeated" by the Revolution, which was always laughable.

To underscore - this is not the government! This is not an elected official! This is not partisan! This is unauthorized and unaccountable outsiders seizing control of democratic instruments.

Unelected + unaccountable goons just seized control of your SSN and other personal + financial data, and have taken control of Treasury funds. A day later, mass tariffs announced - which are directly received by the Treasury. On paper it definitely looks like a heist!.

Here's the actual letter if you want to read it. It's pretty explicitly been launched to further the case to cut funding of public media. "That would further undermine any case for continuing to fund NPR and PBS with taxpayer dollars"

Trump's FCC chair Brendan Carr has told NPR and PBS that they are now under investigation over allegedly airing illegal "commercial advertising.". NPR strongly denies this, saying it's worked with FCC for decades on this exact topic.

I don't think an updated poll has been taken on this, but that's the one snapshot we have of what the US population actually feels about the situation.

A public poll in 2013 found that a majority of Americans believed Edward Snowden did a public service by leaking the info he leaked about US spying on its own residents. This crossed all party lines. A majority also (nonetheless) believed he should be prosecuted for doing that.
Four times Tulsi Gabbard was asked if Edward Snowden is a traitor for releasing U.S. secrets & four times she declined to answer Democrats or Republicans. Anyone who refuses to label a traitor to the U.S. as a traitor is completely unqualified to lead our intelligence community.
