A Red Carpet Boca Paddle Groundbreaking
Not your typical groundbreaking as Boca Paddle’s team, investors, players and public officials turned out en masse for the new public indoor/outdoor pickleball and padel center’s official start. A red carpet led up to a sturdy open tent complete with fans and refreshments, courtesy of Farmer’s Table, the restaurant provider for the new 25 court facility.
White baseball caps with the Boca Paddle by CityPickle logo were on seats facing a dais and step-and-repeat with the usual shovels, this time with matching paddles. CityPickle co-founders/CEOs Erica Desai and Mary Cannon came in from NYC for the shovelsin-the-ground ceremony the morning of June 10 on the NW 2nd Avenue and Jeffrey Street site in the planned North Park in Boca Teeca.
With eight locations, among them in New York, Philly and West Palm Beach, they started the company four years ago to “offer an elevated pickleball experience,” Desai said, adding

they now they have 130,000 customers. CityPickle will run the day-to-day operations, according to Malcolm Butters, the South Florida developer leading Boca Paddle. That group was chosen by the Greater Boca Raton Beach & Park District to develop and operate the 100,000-square-foot, $20 million fa-
cility expected to open to the public in the first quarter of 2026.
“Boca Paddle will host over 200 hours of daily court time, open play, clinics, leagues, private and group lessons, youth programming, and worldclass tournaments, and offer affordable access and court time allocations for lo-
cal youth centers and nonprofits,” according to a press release describing the facility. It will have 16 indoor and 9 covered outdoor courts, 19 for pickleball and 6 for padel, and will include locker rooms, saunas, cold plunge pools, a pro shop, full-service restaurant and bar, warm-up and stretching zone, a workspace lounge with privacy booths for calls, and will be a venue for private events.
Brian Levine, a Boca Paddle managing partner, professional player nationally and on the pro team Boca Surge, talked about the sport’s “breathtaking growth, 311% in the last three years,” citing the average age in the 30s and played by kids to seniors. Boca’s Mayor Scott Singer welcomed the center as another public-public partnership like the city’s pending plans for a new government complex. “The city had a vision for a real recreational amenity,” Butter said, before the whole group went outside for the official groundbreaking, shovels and all.

Visionary Leader’s Secret: Showing Up In The Moment
Visionary leadership is a term that gets thrown around a lot these days. In a fast-moving, globalized world, leaders are expected to anticipate the future, set bold directions, and shape organizations that thrive in a rapidly changing marketplace. Richard Stearns, former CEO of World Vision, once said, “A leader must define the current reality, articulate a desired future, identify a way forward, and personally ‘own’ the vision.” And he is right – without vision, leadership becomes reactive rather than proactive. The best leaders see not only what is but also what could be.
And yet, this presents a hidden danger: Leaders so consumed by the future can easily lose sight of the people right in front of them. There is a paradox at the heart of leadership: to truly shape the future, one must be fully present in the now.
The apostle Paul reminds us in Romans 12:15, “Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep.” That is not a command to those with flexible schedules or abundant free time – it is an essential trait of Christian leadership. If leaders are too absorbed in strategy, too fixated on long-term outcomes, they will fail to notice the joys and sorrows of those they are called to serve. And when people feel unseen, they disengage. They will not follow a leader who appears distant, even if that leader has a compelling vision for the future.
This is where many leaders stumble. They believe their primary calling is to cast vision – to inspire, to strategize, to set bold goals. But the Bible suggests leadership is not merely about direction – it is about presence. Colossians 3:14 reminds us to “put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony.” Love is not just a virtue to cultivate in personal life; it is the glue that holds together an organization, a team, a community.
And love, at its core, requires presence. Showing up in the moment. Leaders who truly lead well do more than articulate the mission; they walk alongside their people. They listen before they speak. They notice the exhaustion in an

employee’s voice. They recognize the quiet victories worth celebrating. They see people, not just productivity.
Jesus Christ embodied this. As the ultimate visionary leader, He did not simply arrive with a grand vision of redemption – He walked among the people. He touched lepers. He dined with sinners. He wept at Lazarus’ tomb. He did not merely announce salvation; He lived among those He came to save.
Here is the irony: a leader too obsessed with the future may never actually get there. People do not follow vision alone. They follow those who know them, who love them, who walk with them. The best leaders are not only visionaries; they are shepherds.
To lead well is to love well. And to love well is to be fully present. Leadership is not just about taking people somewhere; it is about being with them on the way. And in doing so, we reflect Christ, the ultimate servant-leader, who did not remain distant but entered our world, walked our streets, and called us to something greater. If we want to lead like Him, we must learn to do the same. © 2025. Christopher C.

Forgive with the Power of the Cross
“We know that our old life died with Christ on the cross so that our sinful selves would have no power over us.” Romans 6:6 (NCV)
Our natural inclination is to do the wrong thing. But because of Jesus Christ, our old, sinful nature does not control our lives anymore. Romans 6:6 says, “We know that our old life died with Christ on the cross so that our sinful selves would have no power over us” (NCV). We still sin, but now we have the power of Christ in us to do what we couldn’t do before.
Our natural inclination is to return a hurt or a slander and hold onto it, never forgiving that person. But all the things we are naturally inclined to do actually make it worse.
The good news is, we can break that bondage to bitterness, guilt, and resentment. We can keep from becoming slaves to the past and hurtful memories.
We can choose to forgive.
There is no other way to let go of the emotions that weigh you down than to look to the cross. It has the power to free you from grudges and grief. You don’t have to walk with the weight of resentment. With the help of the Holy Spirit, you can release that hurt, forgive that person, and walk in freedom instead.
I want you to think of the person you need to forgive, the person whose offense planted a seed of bitterness in you, and I want you to pray this prayer right now:
“God, only you understand how much I’ve been hurt by this person. I don’t want to carry the pain for another second. I don’t want to be a bitter person. But I need your grace and the power of the cross to release my hurt and to forgive the person who hurt me. This is the turning point. First, I need to ask for your forgiveness. I’m sorry for how I’ve hurt others, and I want to make it right with you and them. Thank you for your grace that I need every day. Today I’m letting go of my resentment and choosing to forgive the way you have forgiven me. Every time the memory comes back, I’ll forgive that person again until the pain is gone. Please heal my heart with your grace. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.”
Talk It Over
Is forgiveness a one-time act? Why or why not?
How do you access the power of the Holy Spirit in you to do the things you know you can’t do on your own?
Why is bitterness often compared to a seed? In what ways do we let or even help it grow in our lives?

The Harder You Work, The Luckier You’ll Be!
First, let me introduce myself, but without sounding too self-promotional, which isn’t easy as I’ve had a somewhat catapultic career.
Sure, some call it luck, but I’ve always found if you work hard enough, luck will find you and people will pat you on the back and say you’re one helluva lucky guy.
I started out along the luck road when I became a newspaper reporter, working at small papers until one day I was lucky to be offered a job as reporter at one or the largest newspapers in the country in the city where I was born, The Philadelphia Inquirer.
I was lucky to cover and write many front-page stories from interviewing media stars like boxing legend Muhammad Ali to a president who became a punching bag himself during a scandal called Watergate, Richard Nixon.
Then I was lucky to land a job with one of the top PR firms in Manhattan and was assigned their largest client, Kellogg Company, for whose chairman I wrote speeches. One of them was about rescuing poor Tony the Tiger from the Federal Trade Commission’s plan to break up the three largest cereal companies Kellogg, General Mills and Post that it was calling an oligopoly.
After my speech was luckily reprinted in The New York Times, the then Kellogg’s chairman was so happy he flew in from Battle Creek, just to take me out to eat—of course breakfast! The oligopoly threat didn’t materialize.
Then the luckiest thing happened.
American Broadcasting Companies asked me to go to work for them, where I was lucky to meet TV genius programmer Fred Silverman who luckily liked the way I wrote his speeches and press releas-
es. So, when he became CEO of NBC, I hit the luck jackpot when I was the only one he brought along with him to NBC and made me his Vice President, Assis tant to the President.
What amazing luck to zoom up to nose-bleed level overlooking that skat ing rink at 30 Rock where I was the #2-ranked executive at what was then one of the top three television networks. Not only lucky, I was proud as a Peacock.
After a starring role in a few hit sea sons there, I decided to really test my luck and I started my own PR firm in Man hattan, TransMedia Group, and as luck would have it, I landed at the time what was then the largest company in Ameri ca as a client, AT&T.
Yes, besides Ma Bell, I got The City of New York, as a client too. What luck!
Forty-some years later, I’m still lucky to be alive and kicking still as the CEO of my award-winning PR firm today serving clients worldwide from its headquarters in Boca Raton, Florida, with the help of my resourceful daughter, Adrienne Maz zone, as its president.
And now together with my beautiful Brazilian wife Rita . . .
Luck be my lady tonight!
Tom Madden’s message here is “don’t kid yourself, luck takes good old-fash ioned hard work” now coming even faster as it’s been rejuvenated, expanded and made more effective with tech like AI. He knows well because he’s forever working hard himself, running his PR firm, TransMedia Group, while writing books and blogs in between proposals to prospective PR clients explaining how his firm will make them even bigger, wealthier and more famous by providing that crème de la crème additive, publicity!

Boca Set to Vote on New Beach Access Plan
By Marci Shatzman
Changes in how Boca Raton will charge thousands of city beachgoers are on the agenda for the June 10 city council meeting. Council will be asked to approve a plan that will replace the staffed gated entrances to the city’s beach parks at Spanish River, the east side of Red Reef and South Beach just north of Palmetto Park Road, all along A1A.
Now city residents and suburbanites who live in the Greater Boca Raton Beach & Park District can buy an annual $85 permit they put on their windshield that gives them unlimited entry to the beaches at the parks, with parking and other facilities, from Oct. 1 to Sept. 30. Palm Beach County residents can pay $102 for unlimited access to South Beach only. Daily rates are $35 weekdays and $50 weekends/ holidays for cars, motorcycles, motorbikes and minivans; and $85 weekdays or $120/weekends/holidays for buses, trucks, cargo vans, shuttle buses and other vehicles: https://myboca.
us/347/Beach-Permits-Daily-Rates
The proposed new plan was detailed and preview at the city’s June 9 workshop meeting by City Manager George S. Brown to correct what he said was misinformation. “This will not be in this cycle. It will be in place in October 2026,” Brown told city council.
Here’s what the resolution will ask city council to approve: “The proposed resolution formally designates Spanish River Park, Red Reef Park, and South Beach Park as a Parking Meter Zone-an essential step prior to installing meters, setting time limits, establishing enforcement protocols, and adding signage. The program will also include pay-by-plate enforcement using license plate recognition (LPR) technology, This approach is aligned with the City’s broader parking modernization efforts and will utilize proven tools such as multi-space meters and app-based payments through ParkMobile.”
Turn Your Outdoor Living Area into a Worry-Free Haven for You and Your Pets
(StatePoint) Enjoying the warm weather and your home’s outdoor living areas is one of the best parts of the year, especially when these areas are well-maintained. Now that warm weather is here, check out these hassle-free ways to refresh your patio, deck, and garden for maximum fun and relaxation for you and your furry friends: Prep for Entertaining
Take some time to create the right atmosphere for entertaining guests and making picture-perfect memories. Hang string lights above decks and patios for a touch of ambiance and to boost visibility after nightfall. Pathways and perimeters should also be well-lit to ensure guests can easily navigate your outdoor spaces.
Consider creating a central gathering spot for cooler evenings with the installation of a fire pit or outdoor fireplace to make nights under the stars that much better.
Don’t forget to check that all fencing and gates are secure—this ensures your pets are protected while you entertain.
Create Comfort
Take steps to ensure everyone’s comfort, including your pets. Incorporate outdoor-grade throw pillows, cushions and area rugs for a touch of luxury. Create shady areas with awnings and umbrellas for more pleasant temperatures and a safe haven for people and pets to escape the sun. Don’t forget to keep an outside water bowl full for your pet to stay hydrated on hot days.
Tackle Weeds
While spring brings blossoming plants and flowers, it also brings weeds. Keeping them under control is a simple way to give your home a cleaner, more polished look. Tackle overgrown weeds in walkways and mulch beds with a worry-free weed and grass killer that you can trust, like Spruce Weed & Grass Killer.
Containing only nine simple ingredients, Spruce is safe for use around people and pets when used as directed, and is even Parent Tested Parent Approved.
With this seal, parents can rest easy knowing that Spruce has been given the green light by fellow likeminded parents, who care about the products they use around their families.
Spruce is also partners with animal welfare organizations including Best Friends Animal Society so pet parents can feel good about this option.
“Spruce starts to tackle weeds on contact, cutting them off from their water supply and causing them to dehydrate. What’s reassuring about the product is that pets can get back to enjoying the outdoors as soon as it’s dry,” says veterinarian and founder of Fear Free Pets, Dr. Marty Becker. “For these reasons, it’s a great choice for most families.”
With a few simple steps, you can turn your outdoor space into an oasis, and focus more on making memories, worry-free. Whether it’s lazy afternoons or lively get-togethers, a little TLC sets you up for a summer of effortless outdoor fun.
Is Your Home Wasting Water? Stop Your Leaks Before They Cost You
(StatePoint) The climate crisis is no longer a distant threat—it’s a stark reality. From wildfires in the West to massive storms battering the South, Americans are reminded each day of their environmental impact.
Among the most pressing concerns is water scarcity. While water covers 70% of the globe, only 0.5% of it is usable for us, according to the Bureau of Reclamation. Climate change, pollution and rapid urbanization are further reducing water access.
A Growing Crisis
Water scarcity, driven by climate change, affects homeowners through rising insurance premiums, soaring utility costs, and declining property values. Meanwhile, rapid urbanization strains water infrastructure, and pollution continues to degrade water quality.
According to the 2024 Ecolab Watermark Study, 68% of Americans worry about climate change, and 70% are deeply concerned about water access. Luckily, there are still things that can be done to mitigate these concerns.
Smart Solutions for a Promising Future Eco-conscious design is not just a trend, it’s a crucial component of planetary health. Smart home innovations, such as water monitors and leak detectors, are helping homeowners conserve water and protect their homes.
“Smart home solutions have been around a while, but continue to improve based on growing demands,” says Mason Hall, head of connected products, Moen and Fortune Brands Innovations. “Implementing smart products – specifically water-saving fixtures—is one of the simplest ways to make your home more sustainable without sacrificing your overall experience.”
When it comes to water conservation, Moen’s Flo Smart Water Monitor and Shutoff is leading the charge. This device continuously monitors your entire home’s water usage, detecting leaks as small as one drop per minute—from a leaky toilet to a major pipe burst. Using machine learning, it identifies changes in pressure and flow, alerting
homeowners before damage escalates. In fact, 60% of users discovered a leak they weren’t aware of within 30 days.
In total, the Smart Water Monitor and Shutoff has alerted users to over 2 million potential water leaks, according to Flow Technologies data. Plus, it helps track water usage by individual faucet, empowering waste reduction and money savings.
Protect Your Wallet (And the Planet)
Rising environmental issues often lead to rising insurance costs. In disaster-prone areas, some insurance companies are reducing coverage or even withdrawing from the market due to the high costs and frequency of claims for home repairs or rebuilds. Water damage, in particular, is a major culprit. The Insurance Information Institute (III) reports that water is claimed six times more than fire and eight times more than theft. Based on III and Census Bureau data, Moen estimates that nationally, insurers pay out over $15 billion in water claim damages annually. To mitigate these costs, many insurance companies now offer premium discounts to homeowners who install smart products like the Flo Smart Water Monitor and Shutoff, which can reduce the likelihood of water damage claims.
Making Every Drop Count
Companies also have a responsibility to help drive positive change.
The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that 1 trillion gallons of water are wasted due to leaks each year. In 2020, Moen launched Mission Moen, a commitment to conserve 1 trillion gallons of water through the use of water-saving products by 2030. Since then, the company has conserved 317 billion gallons of water.
Moen’s new Hot Water Savings Handheld Shower by some estimates reduces shower water usage by over a third—saving up to 5,500 gallons annually. When Conserve Mode is activated, this feature reduces water flow to a trickle once it reaches 95 degrees F, then maintains the temperature, preventing unnecessary water waste while still providing an exceptional shower experience. The product also features Moen’s Magnetix technology, with a magnetic dock made from recycled ocean plastic, further embracing sustainability.
At moen.com, consumers can find solutions that help contribute to a healthier planet.
By embracing smart technology, practicing conservation and supporting companies that make a positive impact, everyone can play a role in creating a water-abundant future.

Democratic Gubernatorial hopeful David Jolly discusses post-partisanship, the environment and relationships with local governments (Part 1 of 2)
This week, The Boca Raton Tribune had the opportunity to sit down with former GOP Congressman David Jolly who recently became a Democrat and almost instantly became the ailing party’s frontrunner for its 2026 Gubernatorial nomination. Jolly was visiting Jupiter for a campaign event on Monday and we were given access to the former Congressman as he gears up his efforts to become the state’s next Governor. Our discussion with Congressman Jolly will be broken down into two parts.
Jolly, who is from St Petersburg spent over a decade working as a congressional staffer before lobbying and eventually becoming a Congressman himself from his home district.
In launching his campaign for Governor, Jolly has made affordability the heart of his pitch. While the most obvious issue related to affordability in Florida revolves around insurance costs, Jolly also is focused on things such as the number of toll roads and managed toll lanes on Florida highways as well how a state government which has become more “payto-play” in recent years impacts the state’s governance and how that impacts relationships between Tallahassee and local governments throughout the state.
Can a Democrat win in Florida?
Jolly understands the uphill fight for any Democrat in Florida. This is the only state east of the Mississippi River that has not had a Democratic governor this century. However, he wants to depoliticize the campaign and focus on problem solving and affordability issues. Jolly sees this race as more about policy and problem-solving than partisanship.”
“ I think what’s very important in this is Governor races are very different in legislative races, incredibly different. I’ll give you a couple examples: we see Andy Beshear, a Democrat, win in deep red Kentucky. Steve Bullock, a Democrat, won in deep red Montana. Governor’s races are very rational. They should not be hyperpartisan. I’m not running on Donald Trump, even though Byron Donalds (the GOP frontrunner for that party’s gubernatorial nomination) might. You’re never going to hear me talk about Donald Trump. You’re going to hear me talk about the affordability crisis, public education, fighting crime, but not communities, relief from toll roads, the overbuilding of toll roads, returning to reproductive freedom, investing in climate resiliency. All the things that reflect the responsible administration of the state
government, none of that is partisan,” Jolly said.
While Jolly may not talk about President Trump often, he is laser-focused on what he sees as the damage done to Florida by Republican leadership in the state, particularly during the two terms of Governor Ron DeSantis.
Despite the critiques of Jolly and other Democrats about DeSantis, Florida has become increasingly Republican in recent years. DeSantis was reelected in 2022 by about 19 percentage points, after having won in 2018 (a Democratic wave year nationally)by under a percentage point.
In 2014, Republican Rick Scott was reelected Governor by only about 60,000 votes, badly underperforming in what was a GOP year nationally. Florida’s rapid shift to the right politically since that 2014 campaign is not a part of Jolly’s focus as he’s marketing himself as a post-partisan and post-ideological candidate.
Jolly sees opportunities in historically Republican Southwest Florida and the areas on the Gulf coast immediately north of the Tampa Bay area. In fact, last week Jolly held a town hall in Zephyrhills (in eastern Pasco County) and an attendee remarked they had not seen a Democrat visit since the late Lawton Chiles (who passed away in 1998).
“We have to show up in communities where Democrats haven’t before. I held a town hall on the steps in Naples of the Collier County courthouse and the man stood up and said, thank you for remembering that a Democratic voting in Collier County counts the same as a Democratic vote in Broward County,”
State and Local Government Relations
State government has become much more powerful during Ron DeSantis ten-
ure. One of the key features of DeSantis’ governing style in Florida is an imposition of state priorities and ideology on local governments. With this in mind we asked Jolly how his relationships with local governments will be different than that of Florida’s current Governor.
“I will support local voters who elected local elected officials. One example I thought of when Key West voters said, we don’t want large ships porting here because it’s destroying the fragile economy. Voters said that and they (the City of Key West) enacted that, right? Governor DeSantis actually preempted it, said, “You’re not allowed to do that,” and then they took a million dollar check from the cruise line. So it is clearly transactional and corrupt, but it’s also an attack on direct democracy. So whether it’s the city of St. Pete wants to ban plastic bags, whether it’s Sarasota who wanted open primaries, only for their municipal elections, not for anything else, and it got preempted because Republicans didn’t want it. We need to do away with preemption.”
The issue of preemption has become a common talking point with local governments which has encompassed local officials of both political parties. Jolly elaborated further on the power the Governor possesses and whether or not it is wise to have a governor impose ideological dictates on local officials.
“ I would almost suggest we take that power away.. We would need to look at it, but here’s why. If a political decision is made at a local level, who’s the governor to say, “No, you’re not allowed to do that?” Right? The voters actually voted that they wanted that. And the reason I think we could look at doing away with preemption altogether is if it is a violation of either a state or federal consti-
tutional right, right, maybe maybe populism ends up with the wrong answer and it’s a violation. The courts are prepared to litigate that to adjudicate that. It doesn’t require a political decision by somebody else. I don’t know that we would ever engage in preemption as if I were the governor.”
Budgets and Priorities related to Budgets
Jolly has his own views on how a state budget should be constructed. Budgets reflect values in his mind and as Florida continues to absorb more people relocating here, water resources have become scarcer and the impacts of sea-level rise, climate change and wetlands destruction more apparent. Jolly says he would use the state budget to refocus the state’s governing priorities.
“ Budgets are values. Budgets reflect our values as a state. Are we a state that’s going to protect the environment because it reflects proper stewardship, but also because we have an ocean economy, a water economy, an environmental economy. It’s why people want to live here for the quality of life. It’s why they want to visit. I’m not sure that priorities and the budgets of the past couple of decades reflect where we need to be on the environment, and I think we need to change that. But I also think this goes to the appointees that the governor continues to put into place. When you appoint people to our water management districts who may come from the developer industry and are too tied to it, that they’re looking out for development and not for clean water.”
Ultimately Jolly feels his appeal as stated above is about post-ideological conversations which focus on the economy and livability.
“ Do you want change, or do you want more of the same? Because I think there are enough voters who want change. I do. Families with kids, retirees who are wondering if they have enough assets to stay in Florida for a couple decades, kids who graduate from school, graduate from college, wondering if there’s an opportunity in Florida that will keep them here, that are entering the gig economy, where it was celebrated initially, because you have flexibility. Now it just means you have six jobs. If you want change, we’ve got an opportunity,” Jolly said.
In part two of our conversation with Congressman Jolly we will discuss insurance, transportation and education issues.
David Jolly enters the race for Florida Governor;
Will it make any difference?
Republican-turned-Democrat, David Jolly (a former US Representative from St Petersburg) has entered the Governor’s race. He is the odds-on-favorite to be the Democratic nominee in 2026. Nonetheless he faces daunting odds if he wants to be elected in this heavily Republican state.
Florida is the only state east of the Mississippi that has not had a Democratic governor in the 21st Century. In fact, Kentucky has elected Democratic governors four times and Louisiana three times since a Democrat last governed Florida.
“This is a different type of issues-driven, results-focused campaign, and it will be driven not by anger and division but by optimism and solutions,” Jolly said. “We are building a new coalition of Floridians who deeply care about their state and are desperate for real answers to real problems that are putting our quality of life at risk.”
“We can fight crime without fighting communities. We can champion the Democratic values of an economy where everyone has the opportunity to succeed, and we can create a government that actually serves seniors, veterans, and those in need. At the same time, we can protect individual freedoms and lift up all Floridians regardless of where you live, who you worship, or who you love.”
The leading GOP candidates are likely current US Representative Byron Donalds (R-Naples) and Florida First Lady Casey DeSantis. Potentially two high-profile independents could run, including former State Senate Democratic Leader Jason Pizzo (I-Hollywood) and former Democratic megadonor Orlando-based John Morgan, who is among the nation’s most decorated trial attorneys.
“No
Kings Day” protests are coming to south Florida on June 14
No Kings Day which is backed by a national infrastructure sponsoring local protests will have several south Florida events on June 14. The date was picked by the organization to coincide with a military parade planned by President Donald Trump in Washington.
wing media including some President Trump’s closest allies for due the involvement of Walmart heiress Christy Walton. An ad, paid for by Walton in the New York Times triggered an angry response from many MAGA leaders.
Walton who is one of the richest women in the world has previously helped fund the Lincoln Project, an anti-Trump SuperPac which is led by Tallahassee’s Rick Wilson. The Lincoln Project has largely been an effort of Never Trump Republicans, many of whom have left the GOP since 2016 to influence the debate by focusing on issues related to democracy, autocracy and governance rather than the usual policy-driven debate between Democrats and Republicans.
On Wednesday, Walmart distanced themselves from Walton’s efforts under the pressure from MAGA leaders.
Donalds appears to be in pole position on the GOP side as DeSantis has been caught up in a scandal related to the Hope Florida charity.
In 2022, Governor Ron DeSantis beat Democratic nominee Charlie Crist by 19 points, the largest margin of victory for a Republican in the state’s history. The previous three Gubernatorial elections (2010, 2014 and 2018) had all been relatively close, with Democrats outperforming their national average in both 2010 and 2014. The 2014 Democratic nominee was also Charlie Crist, a former GOP Governor who like Jolly had switched parties and is from St Petersburg.
In recent town hall meetings before announcing his candidacy, Jolly stressed the need to lower property insurance rates, which have skyrocketed since Ron DeSantis took office in 2019. Jolly’s official declaration of his candidacy on Thursday was accompanied by the following action items he hopes to address.
Creating a state catastrophe fund to lower property insurance costs and make housing more affordable for homeowners, renters, and retirees.
Dramatically investing in public education while revamping a state voucher program that is likely to collapse financially, and ensuring private schools accepting vouchers provide the same specialized services as public schools and are held just as accountable for their academic performance.
Implementing new gun safety measures that will both reduce gun violence and protect the rights of legal gun owners.
The 2026 Democratic and Republican Gubernatorial primaries will be held August 18 with the General Election to be held November 3.
Local events will take place in Boca Raton, Boynton Beach, Coral Springs and Delray Beach according to the No Kings website. The protests are being billed as peaceful efforts to mobilize citizens. Protestors are encouraged to bring signage and show solidarity with others in defense of the first amendment.
Controversy has engulfed right-
“The advertisements from Christy Walton are in no way connected to or endorsed by Walmart. She does not serve on the board or play any role in decision making at Walmart,” the company said in a statement.
The ad in The Times by Walton helped stimulate conversation and momentum for No Kings Day throughout the nation.
