It seems that some Republicans across the country, even in Tallahassee, are forgetting the lessons from the recent elections. President Trump returned to the White House, and a red wave covers most of the state capitals because voters trusted him to tackle inflation. Voters were tired of Democrat overreaches—mandates pushing electric cars, threats to ban […]
By Laura Molina When it comes to an issue as complex as healthcare, there are no one-size-fits-all solutions. It will take ingenuity and grit to find ways to keep all Floridians healthy and to ensure that everyone has access to care. Fortunately for patients in our state, Senator Ana Maria Rodriguez and Representative Mike Giallombardo […]
President Trump is back in the White House and it's time to unleash the full power of our nation to stop China from getting the upper hand in the 21st century. New tariffs, trade restrictions, and forcing manufacturing back to America will give us the upper hand against China. But we know that half the […]
President Donald Trump’s nominee to head the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Martin Makary, is an incredibly credentialed Harvard graduate, John Hopkins University surgeon, and bestselling author. Perhaps of greater note, he has also been unafraid to challenge healthcare establishment views on a variety of topics ranging from pricing to federal agency policy. He may […]
Every day, I put on my uniform in South Florida, knowing I might not come home. That’s the reality of policing in America today for all of my brothers and sisters in law enforcement. But it’s not just the inherent dangers of the job—car chases, violent criminals, and responding to active threats. It’s the disturbing […]
Over the past few months, there has been much anxiety in the Thoroughbred racing community about legislation working its way through Tallahassee that would strip Florida’s racing permit holders of their obligation to host live races, turning them into nothing more than gaming facilities. Those of us fortunate enough to work in this industry understand […]
By Driena Sixto The success of Myles Russ, head coach of Keiser University’s football team, is a powerful reminder of why where you to go to school matters. When Russ took over as head coach in January, Keiser’s Seahawks had just lost their head coach and five assistant coaches. Key players transferred, and the team […]
By Kevin J. Cooper The American public sent a clear signal when they re-elected President Trump last November that they were tired of the economy of the past four years. High inflation rates and sluggish job growth are lingering while economic uncertainty held back investment. Now in 2025, with a narrow but complete majority in […]
Recently, I read an editorial supporting Puerto Rico’s statehood, which I strongly support. I appreciate that the piece noted Puerto Ricans are increasingly supporting Republicans, which challenges conventional wisdom that Puerto Rico statehood would add Democratic-leaning seats to Congress and the Electoral College. Today, statehood is an issue that both parties should get behind. In the 2024 […]
The Biden Administration has not held back on rulemaking and regulatory action in its final months, making sure to leave an imprint on every sector before President-elect Donald Trump assumes office for his second term. Recent actions by various bureaucrats and other functionaries of the administrative state in the waning days of the administration are […]
President Trump’s historic reelection was driven by issues important to voters—inflation, crime, border security, energy policy, the overreach of woke culture, and concerns about a destabilizing world order. Yet in the post-election analysis, the latter has received little attention: chaos on the world stage. From the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal to wars in Israel and Ukraine, […]
Opinion by The Floridian's Jackson Bakich President-elect Donald Trump (R) completed one of, if not the greatest, political comebacks in history this election cycle. His opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris (D), dealt with unique circumstances that put her at an immediate disadvantage. However, she made a critical mistake at the very end of her campaign […]
Dear Editor, In the post-covid world, inflationary pressure is driving up medical costs for the average patient. This is causing basic medical insurance to be unaffordable for the average consumer, and I can see the pain as people have to make tough decisions about which bills they are and are not going to pay. As […]
By U.S. Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) For the first time in half a century, voters across the country are making decisions about one of the most divisive issues in modern American politics: abortion. Or more accurately, at what stage in pregnancy it is acceptable to end the life of an unborn child. I am unapologetically […]
By Mario H. Lopez Puerto Rican music star Bad Bunny is the latest artist to garner attention for political involvement during this campaign season. The rapper, singer, and producer has been behind a series of political billboard advertisements in his home of Puerto Rico. Not terribly unusual at first, until reports that the reggaeton star’s […]
By Bryan Leib Last week in Miami at FIU’s campus, Senator Rick Scott organized a roundtable discussion with Jewish and non-Jewish leaders to facilitate a conversation about the dangerous rise of Antisemitism in Florida, calling the coalition “Floridians Against Antisemitism”. The event was attended by State Rep. Randy Fine, local mayors, prominent Rabbis and Pastors. […]
By Rep. Matt Gaetz (R) Kamala Harris has been Vice President for more than three years. As Cactus Jack Garner, FDR’s Vice President once famously quipped: The job is “not worth a bucket of warm piss.” When she rarely comes out of her box to do softball interviews, she leverages the mushy role of the […]
By Bryan Leib As I reflect on my recent run for Congress, I am filled with a deep sense of purpose and determination. This journey was not just about seeking a seat in the halls of power to effect much-needed change in our nation — it was about standing up for the values that make […]
