The remnants of the legacy corporate media in Palm Beach County will help hard-left progressives destroy the beautiful life we enjoy here if we let them—but we’re not going to let them.
Whenever the Palm Beach Post or the Sun-Sentinel look up from their daily attacks on the best governor in the country, our very own Governor Ron DeSantis, it’s to parrot and affirm some absurd lie that local progressives are peddling.
Like “equity” isn’t just a “code word’ or, as they like to say, “dog whistle” to their progressive allies for teaching CRT in our schools.
I use “hard-left” and “progressive” and not Democrats for a reason.
Drug addicts are not slumped over with needles in their arms on Worth Ave. as in San Francisco; there are no massive gun battles between gangs as in Chicago, and our county isn’t on the verge of collapse like my hometown, New York City.
Palm Beach County is a beautiful place to live, and it’s because commonsense moderate and pro-business Democrats often align on shared issues with Republicans of the same mind.
Together, this ad-hoc coalition stops the worst excesses of the power-hungry, morally bankrupt left and their toadies in the local media.
The center has held, and the line has not broken. We cannot let it.
We must defend our way of life.
FloridaJolt.com will document, illuminate, and report on the best and worst of Palm Beach County.
I will focus my unleashed poison pen locally. The people who would wreck our lives here must be constantly exposed and held accountable, and I intend to do that to the best of my ability.
We will relentlessly expose and ridicule anyone trying to accumulate power by using hate and class envy to divide us.
There’s more to our county than just political warfare, though. We have good people from both sides of the aisle whose stories ought to be told.
From small business owners and parents trying to improve their children’s lives to regular people running for office because they feel it’s their civic and moral duty. Non-profits and business organizations endeavoring to improve our lives by advocating sound economic policies…we will shine a spotlight on them all.
Even a few elected officials were hugged enough as children and aren’t complete narcissists who occasionally try to do some good.
We’re going to write about all these people and organizations. I expect Florida Jolt to have way more positive articles than negative ones.
Florida Jolt will cover everything that makes our county unique and everything and anyone that hurts our county.
We can wage the fight for the future of our families, children, county, and country on multiple fronts. Although the political sword is always a critical component, celebrating good people and deeds illustrates a positive way forward.
We’ll do both.
