The day has finally come: Miami-Dade County might change the name of Dixie Highway, which is gross, racist, and a shamefully symbolic reminder of the state’s slaveholding past.

The secret to defeating Donald Trump? A big orange balloon, obviously.

To much heckling, City of Miami commissioners voted to sharply reduce pay and pensions for employees when the Great Recession nearly toppled the city’s economy a decade ago.

Donald Trump’s first campaign for president was already bizarre before the appearance of Maurice Woodside, AKA Michael Symonette, AKA Michael the Black Man.
