In secret, behind locked gates, our Nation's Oldest City dumped a landfill in a lake (Old City Reservoir), while emitting sewage in our rivers and salt marsh. Organized citizens exposed and defeated pollution, racism and cronyism. We elected a new Mayor. We're transforming our City -- advanced citizenship. Ask questions. Make disclosures. Demand answers. Be involved. Expect democracy. Report and expose corruption. Smile! Help enact a St. Augustine National Park and Seashore. We shall overcome!

It's Morning in St. Augustine -- Change Comes to the St. Augustine Record Under GateHouse
The St. Augustine Record posted the full text of the indictment on Facebook after TRUMP CAMPAIGN CHAIRMAN PAUL JOHN MANAFORT, JR. was taken into FBI custody today and served with an indictment for conspiracy against the United States, false statements, money laundering and tax fraud.
It's been only 28 days since GateHouse acquired the Record from MORRIS COMMUNICATIONS. The Record was among only a few newspapers to endorse President* Asterisk DONALD JOHN TRUMP, the Russian dupe. The WRecKord was the only newspaper in the Western world not to carry on its front page the election of President Barack Obama the day after the 2008 Presidential election.
I'm pleased as punch that GateHouse now owns our local newspapers. I'm tickled pink that the those dull Republican crypto-fascist TRUMP-endorsing clowns at MORRIS COMMUNICATIONS no longer have a voice in editorial endorsements in St. Johns County. The air is already cleaner.
It's morning in St. Augustine and St. Johns County!
Three cheers for GateHouse! Time to report the news without fear or favor, comfort the afflicted, afflict the comfortable, and finally win some Pulitzers, folks!
As Tennessee's late liberal lion United States Senator Albert Gore, Sr., said on Election Night in 1970, "The truth shall rise again!"
By the way, those four Medici lions at our historic Bridge of Lions are liberal lions. Check out their names: Firm and Faithful (west end) and Peace and Happiness (east end), gracing what has been regarded since 1927 as "the most beautiful bridge in Dixie."
Rejoice! Rejoice! Rejoice!
