Florida Sugar Daddies: Rick Scott And Marco Rubio

Standing just feet away from putrid algae fouling local waters last week, U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio questioned whether buying land south of Lake Okeechobee to build reservoirs to reduce discharges would help clean the St. Lucie River.  Another elected official who hasn't publicly supported buying land is Republican Gov. Rick Scott, who's been noncommittal despite reporters asking for his stance several times in recent years.  Rubio and Scott have another thing in common: They've received the most campaign contributions from the sugar industry. here

Democratic Party Threatening To Throw Chris Cano Out

Because he continues to advocate for Bernie and expose the corruption of Hillary Clinton. They want him to remove all his Facebook post that can be construed as negative towards Clinton. They threatened to have him removed from the party because he was an undecided Democrat on National Television. They have attempted to have him removed from all his party leadership positions because he will not fall in line with the corrupt Democratic Establishment.

"Thanks to the Party Leaders who continue to have my back. I have consulted my legal counsel and until Clinton is the actual nominee, I am in no violation of my Democratic Loyalty Oath by continuing to expose her corruption. I do not support nor will support Donald Trump. And, I will not be bullied and censored by the corrupt Democratic Party Establishment. So please feel free to let her know how you feel about these threats. Always Your Voice." Chis Cano

Go Bernie! Go Chris, we got your back here at this blog just like you always have ours!

Part Time Pat Frank

"It's very apparent that Ms. Frank is not in the office on a regular basis. I think what an office of 700 employees needs is an active leader inside the office. Her lack of presence there has caused a lot of problems and issues of mismanagement." Kevin Beckner

Florida's Culture Of Corruption: Florida INC. CEO Rick Scott

Florida INC. CEO Rick Scott has resisted clean water standards, disparages environmental regulations. Earlier this year, he signed a law that essentially allows  Florida INC. Big Ag to police itself when it comes to fertilizer pollution. And last year, Scott’s appointees on the South Florida Water Management District scuttled plans to buy 46,800 acres of sugar company land below the lake where the state had once planned to build giant retention ponds to store and filter the polluted lake water. here
