Is vandalizing public property an acceptable way to support your candidate? Apparently, at least one Bernie Sanders' fan did.

The "we Love Bernie" artwork hasn't gone over well with folks who know this famous strip of Florida beach at the north end of Longboat Key.

If you heard west coast Florida "red tides" come from Lake Okeechobee discharges, you aren't alone. You're wrong -- but not alone. It's time to flush that misinformation down the hopper.

Sometime in June the Florida Supreme Court will rule on a lie.

Admittedly, I'm no lawyer. But I can't understand why the high court chose to hear arguments in the case involving Gretna Racing, a tiny Gadsden County horse track with a card room that frankly shouldn't have been eligible for a slot license in the first place.

Need more proof of the League of Women Voters' liberal leanings? Have a look, as I just did, at the Florida chapter's "2016 Session: Capitol Report Wrap-up."

It's a ringing condemnation of virtually every conservative principle or issue that arose during the legislative session just ended.

Club Med, the Treasure Coast's only destination resort and a major employer in the region for more than 30 years, is looking at the fouled, brown North Fork of the St. Lucie River and weighing its precarious future in Port St. Lucie.

Thousands upon thousands of dead and rotting fish float belly-up in the polluted Indian River Lagoon, devastating indictors of the state's failure to control nutrient levels in one of the most bio-diverse waterways in the country.

Donald Trump apparently has done more than energize just the Republican base. In Florida anyway, he may be helping to nudge angry Democrats to the right. 

Even with the full weight of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee behind her, CD 26 candidate Annette Taddeo continues to hear the boo birds.

Today she got more bad news. 

The Committee for Hispanic Causes (CHC) BOLD PAC came out with an endorsement for Joe Garcia, the Democrat who held the seat from 2013 to 2015, before Republican Carlos Curbelo beat him. Garcia is challenging Taddeo in the Democratic primary.

Tom Lee loves reporters and they love him back. After committee meetings during the last session of the Florida Legislature, I think he would have answered reporters' questions until the sergeant-at-arms flicked the lights if his staff had let him.

Choosing 99 delegates to the Cleveland Convention July 18-21 is a fair process, but it's more involved than most people realize.
