Marco Rubio and Jeb Bush: Climate Change Is Distant Threat

Not 15 miles from the homes of Marco Rubio and Jeb Bush on the mainland, Miami Beach work crews elevate the streets, turning ground floors effectively into windowed basements, to try to stave off the implacable rise of sea water. Up comes the powerful ocean, threatening people, property and the underground freshwater supply. here

“I don’t have a plan to influence the weather, can’t control nature." Marco Rubio

“It wouldn’t be on my first page of things that wake me up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat.” Jeb Bush

Florida's Fresh Water Crisis

Touted as an environmental breakthrough, the water policy bill passed last week by the Florida GOP Legislature is actually a major win for polluters and the politicians they own. The plan allows Big Ag operators to supervise their own waste releases, which is a fantasy come true for those who pollute. 

Sympathetic legislators went even farther, inserting in the law a “cost-share” provision that directs water-management districts to use tax dollars to subside Big Ag’s anti-pollution efforts.

In other words, the public will be paying farm corporations to do something they should pay for themselves 
— clean up their mess. here

Marco Rubio Buys Handgun To Fight ISIS

“I have a right to protect my family if someone were to come after us,” he said Sunday on Meet the Press. 

“In fact, if ISIS were to visit us, or our communities, at any moment, 

the last line of defense between ISIS and my family is the ability that I have to protect my family from them, or from a criminal, or anyone else who seeks to do us harm. Millions of Americans feel that way.” here

Lobbyists Love Hillsborough County

They can come and go from the 

County Center and face no punishment 

for failing to meet minimum 

disclosure requirements.

And here's what it has led to: 

The fourth most lobbied person in the county in 2015 was "Incomplete."

The lobbying registry is the public's only window into who is trying to

 influence government. 

And despite mechanisms for the County Attorney's office to punish violators, action is rarely, if ever, taken. here

Marco Rubio Selling His Soul In South Carolina

Rubio said, 

“Barack Obama does not believe that 
America is a great global power. 
Barack Obama believes that America 
is a arrogant global power 
that needs to be cut down to size.” 

These are lies. Since becoming a national political figure roughly a decade ago, Obama has uttered millions of words about America. here
