“Don’t erase my #flag”
Supporters fill #Miami City Hall to argue vs painting over the #PuertoRico mural on La Placita #restaurant , Biscayne Blvd #MIMO district.
City says it doesn’t fit the #historic district; owners say city already permitted it.
Stay tuned...
@WPLGLocal10 1/ ImageImage
The Puerto Rico flag mural item is underway. Finally.
The year-long controversy In a nutshell :
City & opposing neighbors: “it was painted under wrong type permit, isn’t allowed in an historic district”
La Placita: “#Miami issued that permit & should honor it👇🏼⏩
@WPLGLocal10
This is the permit at issue👇🏼 with which La Placita commissioned Puerto Rican artist Hector Collazo Hernández to paint the mural, the first in the U.S. of his series in PR, “78 Pueblos y Una Bandera”

@WPLGLocal10 #Miami Image
This change of look👇🏼was a compromise offer.
Murals are not allowed in the historic #MIMO district but #neon is. (Not sure why, but so go #Miami rules)
La Placita CEO said the change would be too expensive. It’s now being offered again...
@WPLGLocal10 Image
President of #MIMO Biscayne Assoc (homeowners) is back at the podium:
“These gentlemen knew (it was a “no”) before they painted the mural... They are using you as tools”
oooof
@WPLGLocal10 @Miami
And after all that, guess what the #Miami Commish just did?
Unanimously voted to DEFER!
The controversy over La Placita Puerto Rico flag mural in #MIMO historic district comes back January 23rd
Good night! 🙋🏻‍♀️

Hello from South Dade Landfill, where $millions in brand-new medical ventilators were dumped & destroyed.... infuriating some who know the need for the most serious #covid19 patients.
It’s here On video (*salty language alert*). Also, threading what we’ve learned
@WPLGLocal10⏩
2/ The stamp on the crate shows the ventilator manufacturer is a 35yr old company in Beijing: Aerospace Changfeng Ltd.
The shipment likely came through US Customs last May.
@WPLGLocal10
3/The model number, ACM812A, indicates it’s an anesthesia ventilator. We found this broker’s listing👇🏼selling it for $26,000 US last spring, when ventilators were in shortt supply for an exploding number of #covid19 patients.

#Florida Cong. Matt Gaetz is now tied to shill candidate in a state senate election. This thread shows how *that* ghost candidate is directly connected to two So Fla shills we busted last Nov.
It’s in the money trail that led to Frank Artiles arrest.
Here we go:
@WPLGLocal10
The three shill candidates planted in three #Florida state senate races last November are:
Celso Alfonso (in D39 #MiamiDade), Alex Rodriguez (in D37 #Miami Dade), Jestine Iannotti (D9 Central FL - no pic) ....

@WPLGLocal10
All 3 filed as no-party-affiliation, did no campaigning, no fundraising, nothing. And yet they were backed by two Political Action Committees: “Our Florida” and “The Truth”. Both PACS were created the same day, Oct. 2nd - a month before the election.
And that’s just the start..

🚨🚨Coming for arrest right now🚨🚨
Ex-#Florida Sen. Frank Artiles (in lawyer’s car) for planting & funding a fake candidate, manipulating Nov2020 elections
*illegal campaign $$$
*conspiring to do it
*False swearing-in
First stop: #Miami Dade Co. jail
More coming @WPLGLocal10
His car drive right past the jail entrance when he saw our camera. But eventually, they had to U-turn and come back.
Here’s the seriously quick right through @WPLGLocal10 :
local10.com/news/politics/…
From Alex Rodriguez‘s attorney... arrest warrant shows he (the shill candidate) has been spilling the beans on Frank Artiles since the day police brought him in for questioning.

We heard the shots, a dozen or so .. right here on Biscayne Boulevard .. dozens of police already here investigating an earlier shooting near Bayside ran toward the gun fire…
1/
 @WPLGLocal10
Shot in the leg ... we are now seeing two people detained, possibly a third. Biscayne is closed between NE 1st & 2nd Streets

@WPLGLocal10
Still trying to confirm whether this has any connection to the shots fired in front of Bayside an hour+ earlier... a young woman grazed by a bullet.
That’s why dozens of police were already here...
Casings litter the boulevard

(Thread) We are waking up to the sad news that Don Ryce has passed - the man whose life in is defined in South #Florida by an unrelenting push for justice for his son Jimmy’s abduction & murder. It took 19 years from that 1995 crime to his killer’s execution in 2014 ...

1/
... one of the first cases I covered from its beginning to its end, including as a witness to the execution.
I wrote this personal look-back the night before. I hope you will take the time to read it, now as a tribute to Don Ryce.
I hope he is resting In peace.

2/
... 2/12/14 Starke, Fla -
“
So this is the end of the story.
And we were there from the beginning.
That day Jimmy disappeared, we couldn't click his picture around Facebook, couldn't instantly put the collective call out on Twitter about a missing almost-10-year-old boy...

🚨We have some answers on the #Florida Vote By Mail ballot that boomeranged for 7 weeks through the US mail, from a North Carolina post office to a #MiamiBeach home, and ultimately cost a resident her votes.

The headline: human error.
This thread has the rest:

@WPLGLocal10 1/
2/ “I was furious my ballot wasn’t counted”
Laura Quinlan mailed from NC 3wks before the Aug #Florida primary. It landed at her home Tuesday “returned to sender” & “insufficient address”, tho clearly it’s the preprinted envelope destined for #Miami Dade Elections HQ
@WPLGLocal10
3/
 #MIami Dade Elections has a @USPS liaison who says: the envelope should have been put in a separate, dedicated election mail stream. Instead, a carrier misfiled the envelope into the track that processes mail for return (despite the “official” logo at the top)
