Nice HART Driver Found

I know this blog is always picking on HART drivers. But I think we found a nice one. Leaving the Marion Transit Center the other day I got on the #360LX. After greeting the driver as I always do, I actually got one back. This woman was kind and polite, to everyone that entered her bus my entire trip. I did not get her pic or her name but I did get her 
operator number. 
#4047
------------------

One more thing.
As you can see in pic, this bus isn't going dowtown,
 it is downtown. Us old time riders know where this bus is going, but the new ones don't.  Before you go on your break at Marion please change your header to your next destination Thank you from all udeprived HART riders.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz: A Republican In Sheep's Clothing

Former DNC interim chair Donna Brazile told the world what millions of independents and progressives already suspected. The presidential primary was rigged as far back as 2015, as then-chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz ceded all authority to the Clinton campaign. The DNC's reliance on big money donors tipped the scales against progressives.

This blog has been warning you about this woman
 for a long time. here

HART Gets One Right - #360LX

MacDill to Britton Plaza 
to Bay Bay to Crosstown
 to Dowtown
Fast Ride - No More #4
Beats #36 and #19
Downside, only runs once an hour and 
no downtown service on Sunday. 

Insider scoop: Heard grumbling from the folks who live near MacDill Ave and lost their #4 and now have to walk to Dale Mabry. On Interbay half the way with no sidewalk. 

RIP Jan Platt

Rick Baker's Inside Help

Poynter Foundation board member and 
political operative Barry Edwards 
Poynter needs to explain to the journalistic community that it allegedly serves exactly what criteria are used to select its board members.  Are there any background checks?  Why do Poynter/Times/Baker demand details of the 16-year-old charges against King but ignore the criminal missteps of Edwards?  Doesn’t the Poynter/Times/Baker association with Edwards show a complete lack of judgment and standards? here

Florida's Culture Of Corruption: Erik Fresen

Erik Fresen is finally going to jail. He shouldn’t have never been allowed anywhere near our tax dollars — especially ones for the state’s public schools. He was what you might call an interested party in the constant battle for public dollars that traditional public schools fight with privately run charter schools.
-----------
Fresen was a lobbyist for Academica, a charter school management company that operates more than 100 schools, most of them in Florida. And he was also a $150,000-a-year land consultant for Civica, the architectural company that builds charter schools for Academica. Fresen’s brother-in-law is the founder of Academica.
------------
So it’s little wonder that in Florida’s Republican-controlled Legislature, Fresen would take on a starring role as the architect of legislation that shifted tax dollars to privately run charters at the expense of public schools. here

Mobilization To Tallahassee To Stop Anti-Immigrant Efforts

We have to mobilize to Tallahassee on Tuesday. Our state legislature is trying to sneak through an anti-sanctuary enforcement bill that would criminalize and punish communities that try to create welcoming and protective environment for immigrants with heavy fines and restrictions of fund, in an effort to continue separating our families through deportations. here
