TO THE EDITOR:
TO THE EDITOR:
I want to thank you for your reporting on Matt Gaetz hiding behind antifa — which isn’t an organization but a moniker that includes people like myself.
To Central Floridians like myself that have seen their hours reduced, in a household also affected by unemployment, a third stimulus check is essential. But so is a fourth, fifth, and beyond. With vaccination efforts off to a sluggish and misappropriated start under DeSantis, we can expect a good chunk of 2021 to very much resemble 2020 for our tourism and dining sectors. The impact on wages for our most economically vulnerable workers promises another uncertain and challenging year.
I am anti-fascist, as all Americans should be. My father fought fascism in Italy, and fought the Nazis, and fought the Communists in Trieste — the first battle of the Cold War at the end of WWII. He earned commendation five times — five bronze stars — in the 351st Division of the 88th Infantry. Don’t take my word for it — look it up. Matt Gaetz deserves the Nuremberg treatment for his involvement inciting the insurrection against the United States of America. As an elected representative to the state of Florida, he has a responsibility to his constituents — and all Americans — to be truthful and NOT spread disinformation to foment a violent takeover of our nation’s Capitol. The fact Matt Gaetz is still fomenting insurrection by spreading disinformation is a sign he is unrepentant after the homicide of a Capitol police officer, and the murder — by him and his — of an Air Force veteran duped to believe his lies. The blood is on the hands of these elected officials from Trump on down who attempted to delay the business of America Jan. 6, 2021. All that posing for the MAGA insurrectionists with talk of fraud after all of the challenges were proved to be red herrings was a call for Trump’s MAGA to stand up and, as Giuliani said, have “trial by combat,” or, as Don Jr. chimed, “I’ll be coming for you.” That is inciting violence, and the Nuremberg treatment is their due. Crimes against humanity, much different, but when measured against overthrowing the government of the United States by halting its business of certifying the election of the next U.S. President, certainly this is a grave crime against we the people And to do that, to encourage that, to defend that by continuing to spread disinformation about the cause and perpetrators of this crime, is an attempt to protect himself and his actions — further sign of guilt. At Nuremberg, Nazis defended their actions by stating orders are orders. But the tribunal didn’t accept that defense. We should not accept Matt Gaetz’s defense. He is guilty of sedition, guilty of murder of a Capitol police officer and an Air Force veteran that died for his lies, and guilty of treason for instigating the overthrow of our duly elected representative government. — Robert Potestio

The pandemic has revealed how many among us live paycheck to paycheck. Outstanding debts and recurring costs require recurring aid to prevent permanent damage to our collective economic health and stability. The county-by-county patchwork approach to vaccine distribution and eviction moratoriums further solidifies that this aid needs to come from the federal government to ensure all Americans get the help that they need. — Grace Carapezza TO THE EDITOR: As an ambassador for the Borgen Project and a citizen of the state of Florida, it is imperative that we take action to combat the growing daily rates of COVID-19 in Florida. Many families are being displaced all around the Central Florida area as well as others being pushed into poverty all around the globe because of COVID-19. I want to urge Sen. Rubio and Sen. Scott to support at least $20 billion in the next emergency supplemental for the International Affairs Budget to fight COVID-19 and to pass a relief package. I also want to thank Sen. Rubio for being proactive recently in co-sponsoring a few bills which protect human rights, such as the Uyghur Human Rights Policy Act of 2020 and the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act of 2019. By ensuring people have access to clean drinking water, an education, the right to work, etc., we are not only ensuring their way out of poverty but also their basic human rights. — Jenna Browning
TO THE EDITOR: Thanks for the article on Publix donations [“Publix heir dumped over $100,000 into Georgia Senate races, documents show,” Jan. 6]. The article didn’t mention Publix’s refusal to pay one more cent per bushel for tomato pickers. The Immokolee pickers essentially make less now than they did in the 1970s adjusted for inflation. — Linda Bradley

21 QUESTIONS FOR 2021, PART 2 Now that the insurrection changed everything, what exactly will change? BY JEFFREY C. BILL M A N
Leave it to me to publish the first of a
two-parter just before MAGA terrorists stormed the Capitol — which, of course, upended my plans for this week’s column. In the moment, it’s difficult to know whether these seemingly transformative events will transform anything. Intuitively, however, this feels like an inflection point. The authoritarian current flowing through the Republican Party was displayed on our national mantelpiece; how we confront it will be a defining story not only of 2021 but of the decade to come. So without further ado, here are questions No. 11–21. 11. Will Republicans back impeachment? No sooner had Wednesday’s putsch failed than the same Republicans who’d tried to disenfranchise millions of voters complained about how “divisive” it would be to impeach Donald Trump. Spare me. A Senate trial probably won’t come until after Trump leaves office, but it will put on record which politicians believe violent insurrection comprises an acceptable form of politics. 12. Will Trump be held accountable? No president has left in his wake a trail of obvious criminality like Trump: tax fraud, obstruction of justice, bribery, campaign finance violations, election tampering and, possibly, incitement. Trump might pardon himself — which Biden’s Department of Justice would likely test in court — but there’s nothing Trump can do to stop New York from filing state charges. A prosecution would also be “divisive.” But letting Trump slide in the name of “unity” would only signal future demagogues that there are no consequences for their actions. 13. Will the GOP face a reckoning? The Capitol coup was the dog catching the car, the culmination of Republican obsequiousness to reactionary populism. A few Republicans seemed to grasp the Faustian bargain they’d made. Catering to the MAGA crowd will lead the GOP into a radicalization death spiral — and do irreparable harm to the country along the way. Standing up to them, however, will mean primary challenges they might not survive. 14. Who will become the GOP’s leader? Insurrectionist Sens. Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz went all-in on Trumpism, but they’ve become pariahs on the Hill and with corporate donors. Other 2024 contenders have positioned themselves as traditional conservatives or are trying to thread a needle between MAGA and the 12
Chamber. These internecine battles won’t necessarily predict the next nominee, but they will offer hints about the Trump movement’s future in the post-Trump era. 15. Will conservative media act more responsibly? You’d think — hope, anyway — that spewing conspiratorial nonsense that got people killed would prick a news executive’s conscience. But Fox News dabbled in reality after the election, only to watch the Trump hordes defect to the no-fucks-given insanity of OANN and Newsmax. And right-wing websites learned long ago that there are few social media shares in responsible journalism. Having spent a generation telling conservatives that fact-based reporting is their enemy, their media ecosystem contains few incentives to rein in misinformation unless compelled by outside pressure. 16. Will social media act more responsibly? Post-insurrection — and, conveniently, post-election — Big Tech deplatformed Trump and his most deplorable supporters. Facebook temporarily banned him; Twitter, permanently. Apple and Google Play booted the cesspool Parler from their app stores, and Amazon Web Services announced it would no longer host the site. In bowing to public pressure, the companies grabbed some lowhanging fruit. But these sites remain mechanisms for spreading conspiracy theories and misinformation, for organizing violent actions — and for other world leaders to suppress dissent. 17. Will Democrats strengthen democratic institutions? Even before Nov. 3, American democracy faced a legitimacy crisis: Through anachronisms like the Electoral College and the increasingly white, rural bias of the Senate — as well as gerrymandering and voter suppression — our system fails to translate majority beliefs into majority policies. Democrats have several ways to fix it: automatic voter registration, re-establishing the Voting Rights Act, clarifying the Electoral College Act and granting Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C., statehood, among them. 18. How quickly will the pandemic be controlled? Biden pledged to immediately release the government’s supply of vaccines and distribute 100 million vaccines within his first 100 days. The former is a risky strategy that could delay booster doses, the latter a heavy lift considering the disaster Biden will inherit. Biden says he’ll invoke the Defense Production Act to speed up vaccine production, but he’ll need help from Congress to get needles in arms.

19. How will Biden approach China, Iran and Russia? Trump started a clumsy trade war with China, blew up the Iranian nuclear deal and sucked up to Vladimir Putin. None of these things worked out well. Biden will likely stake out a more flexible but still aggressive posture toward China; seek to join the Iran agreement, which won’t be easy, and develop the kind of clear-eyed, coherent Moscow strategy Trump never had. At the same time, he’ll have to repair the considerable damage Trump has inflicted on international relations. 20. What lessons did Biden learn from 2009? Biden had a front-row seat when Republicans blocked everything the Obama administration proposed, so he should know the kind of obstruction he’s about to face and how to beat it — not by spending months trying to win over one Republican in the name of bipartisanship, as President Obama did, but by ramming through as much as you can, as fast as you can. Whether a bill passes the Senate by one vote or 20, it still becomes a law when he signs it. 21. Can Biden’s center hold? Biden will take the oath at a more precarious moment than any president since FDR: 4,000-plus COVID deaths a day and an economy sliding back into recession; a polarized, dysfunctional government; a sociopathic predecessor who incited an insurrection; radicalized, authoritarian opponents, and an electoral system rigged for their pleasure. Put another way, he’ll inherit a shit show inside a clusterfuck inside a dumpster fire — a Russian nesting doll of crises. Things will go sideways, and whatever honeymoon Biden gets won’t last long.

State launches investigation after Florida nursing home reportedly funnels COVID vaccines to rich donors Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis says that the state is investigating allegations that an upscale West Palm Beach nursing home diverted scarce COVID-19 vaccinations meant for residents and staff to members of the facility’s board of directors and donors. Appearing at a press conference in Vero Beach, DeSantis said that the Florida Department of Health concluded its investigation into reports that MorseLife Health System chief executive Keith Myers offered vaccinations to some of the long-term care facility’s board members and wealthy donors. DeSantis said he also directed Florida Inspector General Melinda Miguel to investigate the allegations made in national news stories published last week. Last Monday, the New York Post reported that real estate moguls Bill and David S. Mack arranged for their “wealthy friends from Manhattan and the ritzy Palm Beach Country Club to get the COVID-19 vaccine at a Florida retirement home.” The Washington Post reported the next day that MorseLife made the vaccinations “available not just to its residents but to board members and those who made generous donations to the facility, including members of the Palm Beach Country Club, according to multiple people who were offered access, some of whom accepted it.” DeSantis said the state started the investigation “as soon as we found out about it.” “We think we’ll have something pretty soon on that,” he added. The governor’s remarks came on the heels of U.S. Sen. Rick Scott’s call for an investigation into the allegation. “It is absolutely disgusting and immoral that anyone would take vaccines intended for nursing home residents to distribute them to their friends,” Scott, a Republican and former Florida governor, said in a statement. “This type of gross mismanagement will not be tolerated, and those responsible must be held accountable.” The federal government signed agreements last year with CVS and Walgreens to provide COVID-19 vaccinations to staff and residents of nursing homes and assisted-living facilities.
Hospital frontline health-care workers and residents of the long-term care facilities were the initial groups of people who qualified for Pfizer Inc. and Moderna vaccinations. DeSantis on Dec. 23 announced that he was broadening eligibility to include all health care workers as well as people who are 65 or older. The move led to chaos, resulting in jammed phone lines, overwhelmed websites and, in some instances, lines of seniors camping out over night to be first in line for vaccines. DeSantis emphasized that the vaccinations at the center of the controversy were not supplied by hospitals or county health departments, but were part of the federal arrangement with retail pharmacies. “The nursing home and long-term care program is for residents and staff of long-term care facilities. That’s who it’s for. “Look, if you’re not a resident or a member of a longterm care facility but you’re 65 and up, there’s other options for you. “We want you to get vaccinated. But to go under that rubric when you are not a resident and you’re not a staff member, that is definitely going outside of what the guidance is and what the program is for,” the governor said. – By Jim Turner, News Service of Florida
Orange County’s COVID-19 Eviction Diversion Program extended through January; tenants have until Jan. 29 to apply Orange County government has extended the deadline for its COVID-19 Eviction Diversion Program into early 2021. Orange County tenants now have until Jan. 29 to apply for up to $4,000 in rent assistance. These funds are paid to the tenant’s landlord. This program was launched last summer using federal CARES Act funds to provide some measure of rent relief to Orange County residents and renters impacted by the coronavirus pandemic. Applicants must be at least two months behind on their rent at the time of applying, and there is no income cap for this program. Landlords must agree to participate in the application process and fill out some paperwork as well.
More information and applications to register for the program are available through the Orange County CARES Act site. — Matthew Moyer
Rick Scott urges Trump to attend Biden inauguration after Trump tweets he won’t, breaking a century-long tradition Florida U.S. Sen. Rick Scott last Friday asked President Donald Trump to attend the Jan. 20 inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris to demonstrate “the peaceful transfer of power to our people and to the world.” Scott, a Republican, issued a prepared statement after Trump announced he wouldn’t attend the event. “I am urging the president to reconsider his decision to skip the inauguration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris,” Scott, chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, said. “He is, of course, not constitutionally required to attend and I can imagine losing an election is very hard, but I believe he should attend.” Scott, a former Florida governor, said he plans to attend the inauguration and that he believes “it is an important tradition that demonstrates the peaceful transfer of power to our people and to the world.” Trump announced on social media that he would not attend the inaugural, breaking what has been a tradition for more than a century of a president attending the swearing-in of his newly elected replacement. “To all of those who have asked, I will not be going to the Inauguration on January 20th,” Trump tweeted. Speaking to reporters, Biden said he and his predecessor agree on the issue. “He’s embarrassed us around the world,” Biden said. Until last Thursday, Trump, who has relocated his official residence from New York City to Palm Beach, hadn’t acknowledged plans to leave office on Jan. 20. In 2019, Scott delayed by nearly a week his swearingin as a U.S. senator to complete his term as Florida governor. Scott attended the swearing-in of Gov. Ron DeSantis, a fellow Republican, but left before the ceremony was completed. Scott flew that day to Washington, D.C., to be sworn in and to attend a fundraiser hosted by his political committee. — News Service of Florida

Let the wild protest begin!
In December, President Trump tweeted “Big protest in D.C. on January 6th. Be there, will be wild!” and thousands of people heeded that call. Insurrectionists made no effort to hide their intentions to storm the U.S. Capitol, but law enforcement protecting Congress was caught flat-footed BY L O G A N JA F F E , LY D I A D E P I L L I S , I S A AC A R N S D O R F A N D J . DAV I D M C S WA N E F O R PROPUBLICA
T
he invasion of the U.S. Capitol last Wednesday was stoked in plain sight. For weeks, the far-right supporters of President Donald Trump railed on social media that the election had been stolen. They openly discussed the idea of violent protest on the day Congress met to certify the result. “We came up with the idea to occupy just outside the CAPITOL on Jan 6th,” leaders of the Stop the Steal movement wrote on Dec. 23. They called their demonstration the Wild Protest, a name taken from a tweet by Trump that encouraged his supporters to take their grievances to the streets of Washington. “Will be wild,” the president tweeted. Ali Alexander, the founder of the movement, encouraged people to bring tents and sleeping bags and avoid wearing masks for the event. “If D.C. escalates … so do we,” Alexander wrote on Parler last week — one of scores of social media posts welcoming violence that were reviewed by ProPublica in the weeks leading up to Wednesday’s attack on the capitol. Thousands of people heeded that call. For reasons that still remain unclear, the law enforcement authorities charged with protecting the nation’s entire legislative branch — nearly all of the 535 members of Congress gathered in a joint session, along with Vice President Mike Pence — were ill-prepared to contain the forces massed against them. On Wednesday afternoon, a thin line of U.S. Capitol Police, with only a few riot shields between them and a knot of angry protesters, engaged in hand-to-hand combat with rioters on the steps of the West Front. They struggled with a flimsy set of barricades as a mob in helmets and bulletproof vests pushed its way toward the Capitol entrance. Videos showed officers stepping aside, and sometimes taking selfies, as if to usher Trump’s supporters into the building they were supposed to guard. A former Capitol policeman well-versed in his agency’s procedures was mystified by the scene he watched unfold on live television. Larry Schaefer, a 34-year Capitol Police veteran who retired in December 2019, said his former
16
colleagues were experienced in dealing with aggressive crowds. “It’s not a spur-of-the-moment demonstration that just popped up,” Schaefer said. “We have a planned, known demonstration that has a propensity for violence in the past and threats to carry weapons — why would you not prepare yourself as we have done in the past?” A spokesperson for the Capitol Police did not respond to a request for comment. In recent years, federal law enforcement agencies have stepped up their focus on far-right groups, resulting in a spate of arrests. In October, the FBI arrested a group of Michigan extremists and charged them with plotting to kidnap the state’s governor. Last Monday — two days before the Wild Protest — Washington police arrested Enrique Tarrio, the leader of the far-right group the Proud Boys, on charges of burning a Black Lives Matter banner. Conversations on right-wing platforms are monitored closely by federal intelligence. In September, a draft report by the Department of Homeland Security surfaced, identifying white supremacists as the biggest threat to national security. The warnings of the Wednesday assault on the Capitol were everywhere — perhaps not entirely specific about the planned time and exact location of an assault on the Capitol, but enough to clue in law enforcement about the potential for civil unrest. On Dec. 12, a poster on the website MyMilitia.com urged violence if senators made official the victory of President-elect Joe Biden. “If this does not change, then I advocate, Revolution and adherence to the rules of war,” wrote someone identifying themselves as I3DI. “I say, take the hill or die trying.” Wrote another person: “It’s already apparent that literally millions of Americans are on the verge of activating their Second Amendment duty to defeat tyranny and save the republic.” The easily overpowered police force guarding the Capitol posed a stark contrast to the tactics deployed by local police during this summer’s Black Lives Matter protests. Then, the city felt besieged by law enforcement.

On June 1, following a few days of mostly peaceful protests, the National Guard, the Secret Service and the U.S. Park Police fired tear gas and rubber bullets to disperse a nonviolent crowd in Lafayette Square outside the White House, so as to allow Trump to pose with a Bible in front of a nearby church. “We need to dominate the battlespace,” then-Secretary of Defense Mark Esper said on a call with dozens of governors, asking them to send their National Guard forces to the capital during the sustained presence of BLM protesters. On June 2 — the day of the primary election in Washington — law enforcement officers appeared on every corner, heavily armed in fatigues and body armor. Humvees blocked intersections. Buses full of troops deployed into military columns and marshaled in front of the Lincoln Memorial in a raw show of force. Police kettled protesters in alleys. Choppers thudded overhead for days and sank low enough over protesters to generate gale-force winds. Such dominance was nowhere in evidence Wednesday, despite a near-lockdown of the downtown area on Tuesday night. Trump supporters drove to the Capitol and parked in spaces normally reserved for congressional staff. Some vehicles stopped on the lawns near the Tidal Basin. The contrast shook Washington’s attorney general, Karl Racine, who seemed to be almost in disbelief on CNN Wednesday evening. “There was zero intelligence that the Black Lives Matter protesters were going to ‘storm the capitol,’” he remembered, after ticking down the many police forces present in June. “Juxtapose that with what we saw today, with hate groups, militia and other groups that have no respect for the rule of law go into the capitol. ... That dichotomy is shocking.” The question of how law enforcement and the national security establishment failed so spectacularly will likely be the subject of intense focus in coming weeks. David Carter, director of the Intelligence Program at Michigan State University, said that sometimes, the best intelligence in the world doesn’t translate into adequate preparedness. Perhaps the security officials responsible for protecting the Capitol simply could not envision that a crowd of Americans would charge through a police line and shatter the glass windows that stood as the only physical barrier to entering the building. “I go back to the 9/11 commission report,” Carter said. “It was a failure of imagination. They didn’t imagine something like this. Would you imagine people were going to break into the Capitol and go into the chambers? That failure of imagination sometimes makes us drop the ball.” Maya Eliahou also contributed reporting. This story was originally published by ProPublica.

‘OVERKILL’ IN A ‘DARK MOMENT’ Florida Republicans push anti-riot legislation while decrying the violence in Washington, D.C. — but the proposal was written well before the Jan. 6 riots, and state Democrats say it’s designed to squash free speech BY DA R A K A M A N D J I M T U R N E R , N S F
A
renewed vigor was given this week to Gov. Ron DeSantis’ call to crack down on violent protests, as the world watched an unhinged mob of supporters of President Donald Trump storm and occupy the U.S. Capitol in a failed attempt to subvert the counting of states’ electoral votes. The “Combatting Public Disorder” proposal was rolled out as state lawmakers prepare to return to Tallahassee for the first of five committee weeks in advance of the 2021 legislative session, which begins March 2. The anti-riot legislation was released as many Republicans in Florida condemned the violence in Washington, D.C., without directly casting blame. Last Wednesday’s actions were “totally unacceptable,” DeSantis told reporters the following Thursday. “It doesn’t matter what banner you are flying under. The violence is wrong. The rioting and the disorder is wrong. We are not going to tolerate it in Florida,” he said, adding that he hopes his anti-riot proposal will get “even more support” following the Jan. 6 uprising. U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio, who did not support objections to certifying the votes in Arizona and Pennsylvania, said that most of the people who traveled to Washington to rally for President Donald Trump “did not barge into the Capitol.” “But 1 percent of thousands of people is a lot of people. Some of them unfortunately were adherents to a conspiracy theory and others got caught up in the moment. The result was a national embarrassment,” he said in a Fox News interview the day after the riots. U.S. Sen. Rick Scott, a former Florida governor who heads the National Republican Senatorial Committee, voted against the results from Pennsylvania. In a prepared statement issued before last Wednesday’s vote, Scott said Pennsylvania enacted election policies “in direct conflict with its own state Constitution.” After being escorted from the House and Senate chambers and whisked to secure locations, U.S. representatives and senators early Thursday morning certified the election results showing President-elect Joe Biden as the winner. Biden called Wednesday’s actions “a dark moment” in the nation’s history. DeSantis, who in early December urged Trump to “fight on” to overturn November’s election results, first introduced the effort to crack down on violent protests weeks
ahead of the presidential election, as the country was roiled by protests sparked by disparate treatment of Black people by police. Then House Speaker Chris Sprowls (R-Palm Harbor) and Senate President Wilton Simpson (R-Trilby) released their version of the proposal last Wednesday evening, after rioters barged into the U.S. Capitol. The legislation would create a new offense of “mob intimidation” when three or more individuals act “with a common intent, to compel or induce, or attempt to compel or induce, another person by force, or threat of force, to do any act or to assume or abandon a particular viewpoint.” The identical bills would also enhance penalties for defacing public monuments, make it a crime to destroy a memorial, and require mandatory restitution for the full cost of repair or replacement of damaged or destroyed memorials. The plan would also do away with bail or bond for people involved in violent protests and let citizens challenge reductions in local law-enforcement budgets. It would also make a crime of “doxing,” the posting of private information about people on social media sites, when such data is published with the intent to “threaten, intimidate, harass, incite violence … or place a person in reasonable fear of death or great bodily harm.” Also, the proposal would make it more difficult for local government officials to trim spending on law enforcement. The House and Senate proposal, however, does not go as far as the plan floated by DeSantis last year, which would have expanded the state’s “stand your ground” law, while including violent protests to crimes involving racketeering. Florida Democrats remain unconvinced that the effort is necessary, and Florida Democratic lawmakers excoriated the proposals, saying it’s designed to quash voices of Black and Brown people. “We know, from lifetimes of experiences, who this will harm … communities of color, Black and Brown Floridians. This is calculated political opportunism,” House Minority Co-leader Bobby DuBose (D-Fort Lauderdale) said during a video conference with reporters. “Any attempt to imply that this hateful and discriminatory legislation would be justly applied to the rioters in Washington, D.C., is absurd,” Sen. Bobby Powell (D-West Palm Beach) said in a prepared statement last Thursday.

“Make no mistake, the repackaging of these bills as a ‘response to the violent mobs of yesterday’ is a smoke screen for control measures aimed solely at peaceful protestors in Florida who sought nothing more than the basic civil rights and human dignity guaranteed to all people under the Constitution. These bills give safe harbor to deep prejudices held by people intent on retaining power and diminishing the value of human life on the basis of skin color alone.” DeSantis and the GOP leaders say the legislation would protect Florida from similar mob revolts. “It doesn’t matter what banner you are flying under. The violence is wrong. The rioting and the disorder is wrong. We are not going to tolerate it in Florida,” DeSantis said last Thursday, adding that he hopes the proposal will get “even more support” following Wednesday’s uprising, which resulted in the deaths of at least five people. But Democratic lawmakers said linking the crackdown on protests with the assault on the Capitol was a ruse. “This bill has been rebranded. The governor’s office is now saying it is in response to that. Now this is just a blatant attempt to obfuscate their own responsibility for that violence that occurred,” Senate Minority Leader Gary Farmer (D-Lighthouse Point) said. “This bill is overkill, designed to squash free speech and peaceful assemblies, primarily by people of color. Should it become law, it threatens to tread on those same liberties for every other group that the governor and the government disagrees with, down the line,” Sen. Perry Thurston (D-Fort Lauderdale) said. Democrats noted that, unlike in other areas of the country, rallies in Florida did not turn violent last summer when protesters began gathering following the death of George Floyd. Floyd died after a Minnesota police officer knelt on his neck for nearly nine minutes. The Florida proposal “would be absolutely deadly to our communities,” DuBose said. “As a father, trying to raise four young Black men and boys in this state, this terrifies me,” he added.

exact moment when insurrectionists were invading our nation’s Capitol, I was standing in the middle of the Magic Kingdom’s Liberty Square amid a much different mob: mask-wearing, diverse and waiting peacefully outside a patriotic performance without resorting to treason or violence. Recent events in Washington, D.C., make writing about Orlando’s upcoming attractions feel surreal absurd, but the Disney-bred optimist in me hopes this past week will mark America hitting bottom and the beginning of a much-needed rehab. With the incoming administration promising economic relief and accelerated vaccinations, 2021 holds potential for a huge rebound in domestic (and even international) travel. And if the theme parks’ surprisingly robust post-New Year park attendance is any indication, look for these eagerly anticipated attractions to help lead Central Florida’s recovery this spring and summer. WALT DISNEY WORLD Although Disney originally intended to debut an ambitious slate of new or enhanced attractions ahead of their Florida resort’s 50th anniversary, it’s currently in question how many will actually open during the celebration that starts in October. Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, a nearclone of the 3D dark ride from Disneyland Paris, is nearly complete at Epcot’s France pavilion, and obtrusive black barges for the “Harmonious” nighttime spectacular have been installed in the park’s World Showcase lagoon. But other announced Epcot projects, from the new Guardians of the Galaxy roller coaster to Spaceship Earth’s renovation, have been delayed until 2022 or beyond, and the heart of Future World will remain an ugly maze of construction walls for the foreseeable future. The situation is more dire at the Magic Kingdom, where the hole in the under-construction Tron coaster’s building that “lightcycles” will zoom through

was recently sealed shut, damping hopes that the ride might open in 2021 as first planned. There’s also little new of note planned for Disney’s Animal Kingdom or Hollywood Studios, aside from the uberexpensive Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Resort Hotel. Regardless, Disney appears to be preparing for larger crowds at their resort — witness the resumption of parkhopping after 2 p.m., the planned reopening of Blizzard Beach water park in March, and the reduction of social distancing to increase capacity on rides like Flight of Passage and Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run. Hopefully recovering attendance will also encourage the recall of some furloughed entertainers. SEAWORLD AND BUSCH GARDENS 2020 was a roller-coaster of a year for SeaWorld Parks, with both widely publicized financial and management woes and well-received pandemic-era special events. In 2021, they are looking to rebound locally with two rides originally scheduled to premiere last year. SeaWorld Orlando’s Ice Breaker looks like a perfect transitional attraction for tweens (or timid grown-ups) stepping up from kiddie coasters, with high-speed launches and airtime hills but no upside-down inversions. Real ride junkies probably won’t need any liquid courage to face Ice Breaker’s 52 mph top speed, but just in case, there’s a slick Glacier Bar nearby serving cocktails in color-changing cups. I probably will want a shot or three before braving Iron Gwazi at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay, where Rocky Mountain Construction converted the park’s notoriously rough wooden coaster into a 206-foot-tall steel hybrid behemoth. Be warned: Simply watching the YouTube POV of this one could give you whiplash.
UNIVERSAL ORLANDO 2021 was supposed to be the year when construction kicked into high gear on Universal’s Epic Universe expansion, which was to include an elaborate Super Nintendo World. Instead, Orlando fans will have to experience the Mario Kart ride opening next month in Universal Studios Japan vicariously via video. But although progress on Universal Orlando’s new campus has slowed to a crawl, testing of the VelociCoaster in Islands of Adventure appears to be accelerating months ahead of its summer debut. The raptor-inspired attraction’s sleek trains can now frequently be spotted cresting the 155-foot-tall top-hat hill and spiraling along the Jurassic Park shoreline, teasing park guests with a rare combination of immersive theming and intense thrills. Other recent signs of Comcast’s confidence in the resort’s long-term future include their December debut of the 2,050room Endless Summer Resort Dockside Inn and Suites (which is far more luxurious than its budget motel competitors along I-Drive) as well as smaller guest-friendly upgrades, like relocating the logjammed lockers inside Hogwarts Castle. Ongoing additions and deep admission discounts for Florida residents, coupled with the lack of an advance reservation system like the one Disney uses, led to Universal’s parks reaching their limited maximum capacity within minutes of opening on many days at the end of 2020. That’s a problem few would have anticipated in the spring, when the attractions first reopened to record-low crowd. Hopefully Universal’s overcrowded holidays will be a leading indicator that things could be looking up for Orlando in 2021. skubersky@orlandoweekly.com orlandoweekly.com

Supaluk and Jimmy Khan cook up rustic Thai dishes inside an Indian supermarket BY FAIYAZ KARA
W
hen I got word of a Thai joint setting up shop inside an Indian grocery store in Longwood, I wrongly assumed that their Siamese dishes would be inflected with the same sort of Desi-friendly spicing you see in Hakka, or Indo-Chinese, cuisine. But Thai Halal Grill inside Apna Bazaar is straight-up Thai, and proudly so, thanks to chef-owner and Isaan native Supaluk Khan. She runs the eatery with her husband, Aga “Jimmy” Khan, a Trinidadian who makes his contribution through incendiary spicing. His homemade pepper sauces, from scotch bonnet to green chili and apple, accompany Supaluk’s dishes. Massaman curry ($10.95) was an expected find because the food here is certified halal, and massaman (a twisting of the term musulman) means “Muslim.” After we ordered, Supalak headed into the sizable kitchen to prepare the dish and Jimmy — masked and socially distant — talked to us about how he and Supulak first met at a Thai mosque, then returned to the same house of worship to tie the knot a few years later. As we listened to his sweet story while seated at the only table in the place,
it became clear the Khans are the sort of couple that aim to please. Jimmy set the massaman before us along with, more exuberantly, his pepper sauces. Currently, takeout makes up most of their business, so everything is served in to-go containers. We flipped the lid and used it as a makeshift plate to hold the heady coconut chicken-and-potato curry and white rice. “This makes me feel like I’m back in Thailand,” said my dining comrade, who added that the food served here is a lot better than the free-standing Thai joint nearby. Supaluk says the food she makes is “country food” and indeed, there’s a rustic, peasanty look and feel to it all — no fancy plates, no molded domes of rice, no artsy splattering. In seconds, Jimmy’s scotch bonnet pepper sauce had my scalp a-sprinkling, but that didn’t stop me from moving on to a very simple offering of crispy tilapia fillets ($10.95) and fried rice. The fish is served with its own sweet red chili sauce, and it’s the sort of dish my companion could picture eating on the side of
tip jar BY FAIYAZ KARA
some pastoral road in Thailand. Same goes for the red curry ($11.95), with the plushest cuts of beef. I asked Supaluk what she marinates the beef in to make it so soft, but she’s not talking. She does admit the red curry paste isn’t made from scratch right now, but that doesn’t mean it won’t be once they get a better feel for the business as well as their customer base, many of whom are South Asians. In fact, they’re already looking to tweak the menu (khao soi would be a welcome addition, if you ask me), but chances are the stir-fried noodles with meatballs ($10.95) will be a fixture. Supaluk uses a beef/chicken mixture and tosses them with peas, peppers and onions. My friend loved them; I thought they could’ve used more flavor; but, no question, the dish is ideal for anyone with a guarded palate. Amid all the open containers splayed out in front us sat three tangerines on a small plate. I assumed (wrongly again) that they were merely a table decoration. “No, those are for you,” said Jimmy. In the absence of mango sticky rice, a few tangerine segments made a perfectly fine ending. Jimmy even packed up the other two tangerines for us and, not surprisingly, threw in a container of his scotch bonnet pepper sauce as well. Leftovers were enjoyed for lunch the next day as I read the latest issue of Orlando Weekly. Some of the pepper sauce got onto the pages and, in a fit of instinct, I scooped it up with my finger — hot off the press.

FK YOUR DIET
This breakfast/lunch joint in Edgewood has quickly garnered a reputation for serving ridiculously large platters of comfort fare — deep-fried French toast, biscuits and gravy, pretty (but messy) Reuben sandwiches. It’s worth mentioning again, because it can’t be stressed enough — portions here are huge. Open daily from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. (reviewed Dec. 23) 5406 Hansel Ave., 407-674-7710, fkyourdiet. com, $$
WHAT THE CHUCK
Chef Nat Russell’s What the Chuck, the latest addition to Sanford food hall Henry’s Depot, is a must-stop for burger snobs, be they lovers of burger classicism or burger modernity. The “1960s Smashburger” will certainly please the former, while the Southern-inspired “Tennessee Truffle,” named after Russell’s restaurant across the street, will please the latter. Open daily.

Russell’s on Lake Ivanhoe has already positioned itself as the best restaurant in 32804. Chef Emmanuel Clement’s flawless creations include his “royale with cheese” burger (one of the best in the city) to the crispy duck confit. A “Napoleon” of roasted beets and burrata shows his technical skills, while the barrelfish seasoned with ginger, cumin and a hint of curry shows he can be bold without being heavy-handed. Both the pineapple old-fashioned and pineapple Foster are must-try status. (reviewed Dec. 2) 1414 N. Orange Ave., 407-601-3508, russellsorlando.com, $$$$

Aji’s Casselberry locale is a bright, spirited space much like the restaurant’s specialty ceviches, of which there are many. Aji spotlights the global influence of Peruvian cuisine as well with such fried rice dishes as chaufa and aeropuerto, Japanese-influenced tiradito and sushi rolls, and filling risottos with lomo saltado. Fresh juices served in half-liter carafes are an absolute must, as are endings of lucuma mousse and luscious suspiro a la limeña. (reviewed Nov. 25) 1436 N.

Alia Shawkat as Dory Sief in Search Party — Season 4 premieres Thursday on HBO Max
ON (small) SCREENS IN ORLANDO Streaming premieres you won’t want to miss by Steve Schneider PREMIERES WEDNESDAY: Night Stalker: The Hunt for a Serial Killer – Relive the 1985 murder spree that kept Los Angeles in a state of panic in a four-part miniseries that crawls inside the twisted mind of the notorious Richard Ramirez. And which I can only assume is incredibly clever crosspromotion with the new AC/DC album. (Netflix)
PREMIERES THURSDAY: Hunted – The Little Red Riding Hood myth gets modernized into a take on misogyny, with a woman fleeing a bunch of barflies whose predatory intentions may extend as far as murder. Boy, is this week taking on a … tone, or what? (Shudder) Search Party Season 4 – Ten new episodes find Alia Shawkat’s Dory kidnapped by her stalker while the rest of the gang stumble toward the realization that she might not be touring Europe like they thought. And speaking of being slow to acknowledge reality, this season’s guest stars include Susan Sarandon. (HBO Max)
PREMIERES FRIDAY: Bling Empire – The promo line on this reality series about affluent Los Angelenos is that it’s an Asian take on Keeping Up With the Kardashians. Which would make them … Kardasians? That’s not something I’d particularly wish on any demographic group, but it’s still gotta be better than being Hispanic in L.A. All they get is the Night Stalker! (Netflix) Disenchantment Season 3 – In this season of Matt Groening’s medieval comedy, Princess Bean has to assume new levels of authority as
her father descends further into unreliability. Step One: Challenging Marco Rubio for his senate seat. (Netflix) One Night in Miami – Believe it or not, Cassius Clay really did celebrate his victory over Sonny Liston by having a private hotel meeting with Malcolm X, Sam Cooke and Jim Brown. But did they engage in the kind of in-depth analysis of American racial politics this film depicts? Also yes! Brown even told the others to keep an eye out for a promising young firebrand named Donald Trump. I have no reason to lie to you. (Amazon Prime) Outside the Wire – Anthony Mackie plays an android soldier in this futuristic military actioner, with Damson Idris as a drone pilot who teams up with Mackie’s character to prevent a great disaster. Too late, guys: They’ve already green-lighted the next Wonder Woman. (Netflix) Real Time With Bill Maher Season 19 – Bill’s guests this season include the Pope, Megan Thee Stallion and a bag of garden mulch. Hey, my guess is as good as yours! (HBO Max) The Ultimate Playlist of Noise – Keean Johnson plays a teenager who tries to listen to all of his favorite sounds before brain surgery robs him of his hearing. When Lemmy was still alive, it was our favorite sounds that made us deaf in the first place. (Hulu) WandaVision – The Marvel Universe gets good and surreal with this streaming spinoff, in which the Vision and the Scarlet Witch find themselves trapped in sitcom environments of various eras. Listen, I just want to see the Impossible Man guesting on Small Wonder. (Disney+) orlandoweekly.com

The loss of Americana royalty
Justin Townes Earle isn’t fresh news. But prior to his tragic overdose death last summer, he was last scheduled to perform in town this week at the New Standard. That’s worth another pour on the floor.
MARC WITH A C ALBUM RELEASE
2020 marked the 20th anniversary of Orlando indie-pop hero Marc With a C and he spent it releasing stuff – a box set, a film and a book – like a machine. But all that will culminate in the release of his first album of new material in nearly three years on Friday, Jan. 15. Titled low fidelity (or “how i spent the nervous breakdown”), this special recording was designed to be experienced as a single continuous odyssey — the vinyl copies won’t even be banded. Then on Saturday, Jan. 16, at 6 p.m., Marc will hold his album release party virtually with a performance on his Twitch channel. He promises that it will be, like the new album, unlike anything he’s done before. Physical copies of low fidelity feature art direction by Cat Blackard and will be available on double gatefold vinyl and CD.

“CUM AGAIN” As you can see by my signature, Dan, I’m a linguist. On your podcast you frequently ask researchers “whatchyougot” on all kinds of sex- and romance-related questions, I thought maybe you’d be interested in some expertise on linguistic matters too. And I have some on “cum,” “cumming” and (shudder) “cummed.” The technical term here used among linguists for this kind of phenomenon is “peeve.” Let me clarify, it’s not the “cum,” “cumming” and “cummed” that’s a peeve but the shuddering. You see, what causes peevers to shudder causes linguists to get interested. The point is language always changes, and linguists are interested in these changes however much they horrify normal people. (That’s our technical term for non-linguists.) Grandparents are forever lamenting about how their grandchildren’s generation is ruining the language. Documentation of this phenomenon goes back to the Roman times. And indeed, generations upon generations of grandchildren turned Latin into Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian, Catalan and a host of lesser known forms of ruination. In terms of the sticky substance at hand (or on hand), cum and cumming are just alternative spellings, which are common enough for slang. It’s slang! You really gonna insist slang follow uptight and buttoned-down spelling rules, Dan? That’s just stoopid. Cummed is more interesting — and also causes peevers to shudder — because it’s a real change in the language. But why shudder? Why not appreciate it instead? “Cummed” shows us how creative we are with our language, how we play with it, and in this case do something useful, differentiating the sublime “got off” (climaxed) from the banal “got there” (arrived). Don’t fall into useless peeving, Dan! You’ve famously instigated language change. Just ask Rick Santorum, your former college roommate, or the men who’ve cummed and cummed hard while a nice vagina-haver pegged their ass. Michael Newman Professor of Linguistics and Chair Department of Linguistics and Communication Disorders Queens College/CUNY Thank you for taking the time to write, Professor Newman, and please forgive me for peeving you. But the sticky issue for me — if you’ll pardon the expression — remains the seemingly unnecessary and arbitrary use of an alternate spelling in this one instance. As I’ve said before, no one is confused when someone calls a person a “dick” in print and then goes on to wax poetic about the dick they sucked in the next sentence. If we don’t have to spell it “dik” when we’re referring to male genitalia — or the genitals of penis-havers — I don’t see why “come” needs to be spelled “cum” when referring to someone climaxing or when referring to ejaculate. Of all the words out there with more than one meaning — dick, dong, cock, pussy, beaver, box, crack, rack, sack — why does this one require special linguistic treatment? 34
Interesting take on cum … as your column ventured into linguistics. How do you feel about “tonite” for “tonight” or “lite” for “light”? Inquiring minds want to know. Commonly Used Mutated Spellings I made inquiries at the website of the world’s best dictionary (and best drag name) Merriam-Webster, CUMS, where I learned tonite is “a blasting explosive consisting of a mixture of guncotton with a nitrate” and lite means “made with a lower calorie content or with less of some such ingredient (salt, fat, or alcohol) than usual.” So you can have dinner tonight and wash it down with something lite, CUMS, but don’t have tonite for dinner unless you want to light yourself up. I basically agree with your views about spelling the verb as “come.” However, I think one could be a bit more nuanced about usage here. “Come” is rather polite and could easily be used in a romantic context (“Oh god honey I’m about to come”) whereas “cum” has a definite “let’s fuck” feel to it (something not unheard of in your column). Different contexts call for different styles, perhaps. I would also like to make an outright exception for the substance “cum,” which I feel should always be spelled with a “u.” For the noun, using the “u” hardly seems vulgar at all. One might wonder why cum seems more appropriate for denoting semen. I can think of two good reasons. First, “cum” evokes “scum,” which matches the feelings of some (benighted) people that cum is slimy and disgusting. And secondly, the final letters “um” occur in some medical terms — all nouns — which relate to sex, like pudendum, scrotum, rectum, perineum. This is a very different association than scum but also seems like part of the story, at least to me. Some Codes Unduly Muddled Hmm … I agree that an alternate spelling when referring to ejaculate could be helpful, SCUM. But context also provides clarity. If a man and/or penis-haver says, “My come was everywhere,” no one thinks his/hers/their orgasms are Jesus Christ or dark matter — literally everywhere throughout the universe — but rather that he’s/she’s/they’re exaggerating about the volume of a recent orgasm to make a point about the intensity of pleasure he/she/they derived from it. I’ve been a copy editor for 15 years and a Savage Love reader for much longer. I wanted to chime in on fellow Canadian COME’s letter about the “come” vs. “cum” spelling. I fully agree that as a verb, it should be “come” and “came/ coming” instead of “cummed/cumming.” But there is a place for “cum”: as a noun when referring to the actual gooey substance (aka semen, ejaculate, spunk, etc). Consider the sentence, “I have come in my mouth.” Are you announcing an act of autofellatio (talk about a cumblebrag!) or are you describing a substance someone else left behind? Or, “How did come get on my jacket?” Doesn’t that just look

like a mistake? Millennials love turning nouns into verbs (adulting!) but I think using “come” as a noun is incorrect. And what about describing something as “cummy”? How would you spell that? Comy? Comey? Perhaps we can all come together on this: “come” for the verb of achieving orgasm; “cum” for the noun that describes the resulting emission. Copyeditor Uses Modification For A Noun Your argument convinced me, CUMFAN. If everyone else agrees to use “come” for the verb, I can swallow “cum” as a noun. The copy editor carries the day! You were close with your advice to Cabin Fever, the man whose teenager was derailing his sex life, but it was still a miss. Instead of telling his kid to “take a fucking walk,” per your advice, he should use the moment to teach. As you said, Dan, even teenage boys realize that happy-and-still-inlove parents are a good thing. So instead of being confrontational, CF and his wife could laugh and pay their son the compliment of being honest: “We enjoy sex but we don’t enjoy it with you in the next room any more than you enjoy hearing it.” Then come up with someplace for him to go for a few hours that HE wants to go to and make it happen. By being upfront they’ll be modeling healthy adult behavior and a healthy and adult approach to problem solving. This is truly an opportunity for good parenting. Mom And Dad Are Fucking While I did advise CF to tell his kid to “take a fucking walk” when mommy and daddy wanted to peg, I expected CF to approach that conversation in a tactful and constructive manner. That said, due to the pandemic, there aren’t many places for a kid to go when his parents are fucking. A walk, for now, may be their best option. If CF’s family doesn’t already have a dog, perhaps they should get one.
TO MY READERS: There are more important things happening in the world right now than disputes over sexual slang, I realize, but I hope today’s column was a welcome and fleeting distraction from the news … kinda like that viral video of the sweet guy whose cat won’t let him make his audition tape. I am following the news and reacting in real time on Twitter, if you care to hear what I have to say, and like all sane people everywhere I am equal parts furious and mortified. Donald Fucking Trump and every last one of his co-conspirators in his family, in his administration, and in Congress belong in prison with every last traitor who stormed the U.S. Capitol last week. Impeach the motherfucker again and indict all the motherfuckers already.
