I merely dabbled in urbanism before having kids but became fully radicalized by pushing a stroller down subpar sidewalks and trying to find safe routes for my kids to ride their bikes.

Florida House votes to make flamingo state bird, replacing mockingbird The Florida House voted to replace the mockingbird with the American flamingo as the state bird. The bill now heads to the Senate, where its fate is uncertain.

The Florida scrub jay is RIGHT THERE. Come on guys.

He also had an attorney appear while in the hospital. "I'm saying what the heck is going on? This guy's in the ICU!"

During motion calendar this morning, Broward County Circuit Judge Michael Robinson commented about Zoom hearings, said they're great for saving clients money, but said he's had attorneys appear from the beach and had issues with husbands streaking past in the background.

Our Reporters Reached Out for Comment. They Were Accused of Stalking and Intimidation. Our journalists reach out to people they’re writing about to ensure fairness. But in this environment, they’ve found their efforts to do so are more likely to be vilified than appreciated.

β€œYou are not entitled to a response from us, or anyone, ever,” is what an Education Department spokesperson wrote to one of our reporters, @megomatz.bsky.social, after she repeatedly tried to get comment from the department and its officials.

Knight Institute Condemns Arrest of Journalists Reporting on Minneapolis Protests

The arrests of Lemon and Fort are intended to deter journalists from doing work we need them to do, and that the First Amendment was meant to protect. DOJ should drop these prosecutions or the courts should throw them out. knightcolumbia.org/content/knig...

This is the first time an appellate court is tackling this issue, and there’s a decent chance it heads to the Supreme Court, which would not be the first time for 2 Live Crew: www.oyez.org/cases/1993/9...

Uncle Luke was in attendance at oral argument at the University of Miami, but it was the last case argued, and most of the students had cleared out by then. I realized though that the largely 20-something crowd probably would have no idea who he was.

There’s a reason the DOJ’s healthcare fraud strike force has a huge operation in Miami.

As someone who lives in the Southern District of Florida, this β€œwe need to invade MN because of high rates of fraud by immigrants” has always been laughable.

This reminds me of my all-time favorite AI summary of an email conversation with my editor and a fellow reporter that involved a pitch for a story about an appellate ruling regarding an unlawful strip search. Behold:

I get the feeling many in the diaspora are still under the impression that the opposition will be put in power because of the regime’s lack of broad popular support. But for this to happen either the Venezuelan military needs to back the opposition or the US needs boots on the ground to force it.

Travel, Budget Beds, and the Homeless

I was just reading about Trinity Place, the apartment complex he donated to the YWCA, and it seems he spent some time battling zoning boards while trying to build fourplexes for unhoused women and their kids. I’m guessing that’s what did it. www.ricksteves.com/about-rick/t...

I never would’ve taken music composition if not for the art requirement at UChicago. I was in way over my head, but I loved the challenge. Zero professional application, but there is value in learning to work outside your comfort zone and tackle difficult, unfamiliar challenges.

Hearing adjourned, Judge Gayles said it's "going to take me a little while to issue an order" and kept discovery stayed until that point.

Brito: "No because we still don’t know who authored the letter. The issue is who created and signed the letter."

Judge Gayles asked Brito about the WSJ's argument that had the newspaper published the story after the documents release from Congress, there would be no way a defamation claim would see the light of day.

Judge Darrin Gayles is trying to wrap this up. I'm guessing he's not going to rule from the bench, but we will see.

Andrew Levander, who also represents the WSJ, argued that Trump's complaint alleged not that the letter was fake, but that it did not exist. The congressional document release shows that it does exist.

Bolger is back up, pointing out that the story included a statement that said the reporters don't know exactly how the letter was prepared. She said they also did additional reporting, by talking to other people who submitted pages for the Epstein birthday book, and other sources.
