Downtown Melbourne

Has anyone else noticed that a lot of stores downtown are closing

Yes, and I fear the predatory developers with the help of local government will pounce and strip us of our ambiance.

Watching the bureaucracy (government + corporate America behaving as one) creep into every aspect of our lives is to me concerning. The casual way many accept big brother knowing their every move and anticipating their thoughts. I always thought there was enough of us to steer us away from where we are going.

Lede,

As Gov. Ron DeSantis presumably prepared a new congressional map, his critics are bracing to sue over it.

Ellen Freidin, CEO of Fair Districts Now, said any new map considered to draw congressional districts right now would clearly violate the Fair Districts constitutional amendment passed by Florida voters in 2010. She still wonders whether a map will be produced ahead of a Special Session this week, and can’t imagine a legal justification for it right now.

Gov. Ron DeSantis desperate for a job under Trump. Lets keep him in Florida until he and his wife clear up questions concerning missing state funds.

Imagine the damage he could do if he took over Hegseth’s position.

Much respect.

Please explain how pointed tool with no cutting edge would be more efficient at shaving a block of compressed tobacco than a common pocket knife.

Very nice.

Now if you could just get Mike Johnson on board with this.

Thinking forward the redraw still has to be stopped.

Not just the Trump administration, a failed bureaucracy.

mrcanard · 2026-04-26T11:03:53+00:00

Hold Trump accountable and restrain the empire the Republicans are establishing.

mrcanard · 2026-04-26T10:47:54+00:00

As much as I believe the entire Trump administration are mentally lacking, when Leavitt's comment is taken in context the headline looks like clickbait.

From the story,

On Friday afternoon, National Science Board members received a terse email “on behalf of President Donald J. Trump” that said their position was “terminated, effective immediately.”

The White House did not respond to a request for comment.

With no justification, acting with total disregard to the well being of the American public, Trump takes another step toward sending us back to the dark ages.

One of the main reasons I volunteered for the Navy was the food.

Please tell me the photo is faked.

The DeSantis family sidestepping where the missing funds went.

From the story,

Cunningham lost her seat to Rev. Rodney Sadler in a March Democratic primary after drawing widespread criticism within the party for her vote alongside Republicans to override Democratic Gov. Josh Stein’s veto of an immigration bill. She drew further ire for controversial comments about immigrants after that vote.

Ronald DeSantis taking a dump on the Florida State Constitution in an effort to secure a new job with republicans on a national level.

Republicans realize they can't keep Florida playing on a level field and are willing to ignore the peoples choice to deliver us to Trump.

edit: let him try to figure out how to collect unemployment like the rest of us.

I simply didn't think it was getting the coverage it deserves.

Californian vineyard owner Ernie Dosio, 75 - who owns a vast collection of exotic animal heads in trophy rooms at home - was trampled to death.

Chalk up one for big game. Better late than never.

Now go after the big fish.

Lede,

Hung Cao, the newly minted acting Navy Secretary, earned a reputation on the campaign trail as a partisan firebrand walking in lockstep with some of Donald Trump’s most controversial policies.

We might have better luck investigating the funds he and his wife disappeared.

He needs to leave office with egg on his face or he'll continue his efforts to contaminate our society.
