Lake Worth has raised the starting salary for a new City Manager

As of April 2026, Lake Worth Beach commissioners have authorized a salary range of $285,000 to $345,000 for the city's next city manager.

This high-end salary aim is designed to attract top-tier candidates, potentially making the position one of the highest-paid municipal executive roles in Palm Beach County.

Commissioners agreed last week to advertise a salary range of $285,000 to $345,000 for the full-time position, which has been held on an interim basis since January 2024 by Public Works Director Jamie Brown.

“The kind of city manager we are looking for, it’s not their first rodeo. We’re not hiring a newbie,’’ Commissioner Mimi May said at a commission meeting March 31.

“We are willing to pay for somebody with experience, with goals, with historic proof that they are able to take an idea from the beginning to end, that has the ability to be CEO of a multimillion-dollar budget city,’’ she said.

Palm Beach County Administrator Joe Abruzzo makes $425,000.

As of October 2025, Jamie Brown was making $233,928 a year. He withdrew his name from the consideration due to lack of support. He would have been a great city manager.

Big Day for World Peace

'A big day!' Trump makes bold prediction after Iran ceasefire agreement

'Iran wants it to happen, they've had enough! Likewise, so has everyone else!'

President Donald Trump on Wednesday said in the wake of his ceasefire agreement with Iran, there could be a "Golden Age of the Middle East."

"A big day for World Peace! Iran wants it to happen, they've had enough! Likewise, so has everyone else!" Trump exclaimed on Truth Social.

"The United States of America will be helping with the traffic buildup in the Strait of Hormuz. There will be lots of positive action! Big money will be made. Iran can start the reconstruction process.

"We'll be loading up with supplies of all kinds, and just 'hangin' around' in order to make sure that everything goes well. I feel confident that it will. Just like we are experiencing in the U.S., this could be the Golden Age of the Middle East!!!"

The president added: "The United States will work closely with Iran, which we have determined has gone through what will be a very productive Regime Change! There will be no enrichment of Uranium, and the United States will, working with Iran, dig up and remove all of the deeply buried (B-2 Bombers) Nuclear 'Dust.'

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth had to put an ABC News reporter in his place after he asked a very pointed question about President Donald Trump negotiations with Iran, which Hegseth saw as a direct attack merely framed as a question.

“Of course this is ABC News! Did you even hear what I said?!”

Trump's Congo Deal

Trump Just Found Another Country Willing to Take the Criminals No One Else Wants

Congo Joins a Growing List of Countries Doing America a Favor

The Democratic Republic of Congo announced Sunday it will begin receiving third-country deportees from the United States this month – becoming the latest African nation to take criminals off American streets when their home countries refuse to do it themselves.

The Congolese Ministry of Communications confirmed the arrangement costs Congo nothing, and gives the U.S. a place to send illegal aliens convicted of serious crimes who can't be returned to where they came from. The deal fits a pattern Trump has been building since day one.

South Sudan. Eswatini. Ghana. Rwanda. Uganda. Cameroon. Equatorial Guinea. Eight African nations – and now Congo – have agreed to do what Democrats said was impossible: give America a permanent destination for the worst of the worst who can't go home.

The Congo deal didn't happen in a vacuum. In December 2025, Trump signed a Strategic Partnership Agreement with Kinshasa granting U.S. companies preferential access to Congolese cobalt and copper – the minerals that go into every defense system, every fighter jet, and every battery powering the technologies China wants to dominate.

Congo holds the world's largest cobalt reserves. Chinese companies currently control over 80% of them.

Trump is changing that.

Meeting for the K Street Garage

ATTENTION HANDS OFF SUPPORTERS

IMPORTANT STAKEHOLDER MEETING FOR THE PROPOSED K ST. GARAGE

WHERE--COMPASS COMMUNITY CENTER, 201 NORTH DIXIE HWY

WHEN--APRIL 13 (MONDAY) 6 - 8 PM

In the weeks leading up to the March 10 referendum election, city leaders told us that we couldn’t afford to take care of our existing failing infrastructure like the city hall annex and roads, and we needed to trust them to approve development that would generate the revenue to do that.

The voters said NO, that we wanted to be involved in approving development with long-term leases on public land. Not only did the voters defeat these 2 amendments, it was a wipeout.

Yet now, only one month after this overwhelming defeat, they are moving forward with plans to build a $9 million, 4 ½ level public parking garage on So. K St. with no clear plan for financing the construction, operation and maintenance.

Some city leaders openly support paid street parking to help pay for the garage, and the commission has approved a contract to develop a plan for it. There have been no business outreach and no stakeholder meetings about this.

We feel this is the wrong direction for our city and is a premature move without a solid plan to pay for it. We also believe there are enough other parking options within a short distance of the city center to satisfy parking needs for the foreseeable future.

After nearly two years of meetings, the city will finally hold a public stakeholder meeting: MONDAY, APRIL 13, 6-8 PM, AT COMPASS COMMUNITY CENTER, 201 NORTH DIXIE HWY. We encourage everyone to attend and make your voice heard.

Sincerely,
The Lake Worth For All Team

This isn’t a transition—it’s a warning shot.

The exit of Pam Bondi signals that the gloves are coming off in Donald Trump’s second act. The message is unmistakable: the era of passive defense is over.

After years of what Trump calls weaponized lawfare—from Crossfire Hurricane to courtroom ambushes—the expectation now is payback with precision. Not symbolism. Not speeches. Action.

The next Attorney General won’t be a caretaker—they’ll be a combatant. And if you’ve been hiding behind process, precedent, or politics, you might want to start paying attention. [Richard Luthmann]

AOC charges personal psychiatric expenses to her campaign

AOC FEC Complaint Targets $18725 in Payments to Ketamine Psychiatrist

The National Legal and Policy Center filed a joint complaint on March 27, 2026 with the Federal Election Commission and the Office of Congressional Conduct.

The complaint details three payments AOC's campaign made in 2025 to Dr. Brian W. Boyle, a Boston-based psychiatrist: $11,550 on March 10, $2,800 on May 15, and $4,375 on October 1 – totaling $18,725. Every payment was reported to the FEC as "leadership training and consulting."

There is one problem. Dr. Boyle does not offer leadership training or consulting. He is an interventional psychiatrist whose work focuses on treatment-resistant depression, PTSD, and anxiety, largely through ketamine-based methods. He holds a position as chief psychiatric officer at Stella, a chain of mental health clinics built around experimental therapies favored by Hollywood and Wall Street clientele.

"While she describes these expenses as 'leadership training,' Dr. Boyle has no expertise in that area, unlike several Democratic campaign consultants," NLPC counsel Paul Kamenar told the New York Post. "This looks like yet another example of misuse of campaign contributions."

Some Wiseguy tipped off the Media about missing airman

Trump says leak tipped off Iran to missing airman, demands media outlet reveal source or face jail

President Donald Trump told reporters Monday that a leak to the press about a second U.S. airman stranded inside Iran after a shootdown nearly cost the serviceman his life, and vowed his administration would force the media outlet that published the information to hand over its source or face criminal consequences.

The threat came during an April 6 White House press conference where Trump laid out the details of what officials described as one of the most complex rescue missions in U.S. special operations history.

An F-15E Strike Eagle had been shot down over Iran on Friday. The pilot was recovered within hours. But the weapon systems officer, separated by several miles after ejecting, remained alone in hostile territory until Saturday night, nearly 48 hours behind enemy lines.

Trump said the administration deliberately withheld word that a second airman was still missing. Then someone talked.

Trump said the disclosure prompted Iran to issue what he described as a major notice offering "a very big award for anybody that captures the pilot." That turned the search into something far more dangerous. Not only were U.S. rescue teams operating against a hostile military, Trump said, but "millions of people trying to get an award."

Woman kidnapped and assaulted in Lake Worth Beach by Sex Pervert

Woman escapes Lake Worth Beach kidnapping, sexual battery attack, PBSO says

A man was arrested in Palm Beach County after deputies say he kidnapped a woman at knifepoint in Lake Worth Beach and sexually battered her before she escaped and ran to a nearby business for help.

According to a Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office probable cause affidavit, the victim told investigators the man approached her in a four-door vehicle the morning of March 30 while she was walking in the area of 10th Avenue South and South F Street.

Deputies say the suspect asked for directions to a nursing home, then pulled out a knife and ordered her into the vehicle, threatening to hurt her if she refused.

Investigators said the man, Verwayne Alexander, 63, drove the woman through Lake Worth Beach and eventually parked in an industrial area near railroad tracks, around 411 South East Coast Street. There, deputies say, he forced sexual contact on the victim and threatened her again with the knife when she resisted.

Artemis on the way home

Artemis 2 crew completes flyby, heading home

The Artemis 2 spacecraft and its 4 astronauts are on their way home following a historic day in human spaceflight.

At around 18 UTC, the crew reached the farthest distance from Earth ever traveled by humans, breaking the record of 248,655 miles (400,171km) set by the Apollo 13 crew in 1970.

And a few hours later, the spacecraft began its voyage around the moon's far side. As the crew soared some 4,600 miles (7,400 km) above the lunar surface, the moon blocked all communications from Earth for 40 minutes.

In that time, the astronauts saw parts of the far side of the moon never before seen in daylight by human eyes. Plus, they spotted several impact flashes from space rocks hitting the lunar surface!

Iran Ceasefire for two weeks

'Double sided CEASEFIRE!' Trump holds off 'destructive force' in Iran for two weeks

'We received a 10 point proposal from Iran, and believe it is a workable basis on which to negotiate'

About 90 minutes before the 8 p.m. deadline, President Donald Trump announced Tuesday evening he was holding off on the "destructive force" with which he had threatened Iran.

Trump said on Truth Social: "Based on conversations with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Asim Munir, of Pakistan, and wherein they requested that I hold off the destructive force being sent tonight to Iran, and subject to the Islamic Republic of Iran agreeing to the COMPLETE, IMMEDIATE, and SAFE OPENING of the Strait of Hormuz, I agree to suspend the bombing and attack of Iran for a period of two weeks.

"This will be a double sided CEASEFIRE! The reason for doing so is that we have already met and exceeded all Military objectives, and are very far along with a definitive Agreement concerning Longterm PEACE with Iran, and PEACE in the Middle East.

Every great chess player knows the most dangerous opponent isn’t the one staring you down across the board — it’s the one standing behind you, studying your blind spots.

For over a month now, America has been locked in a grinding conflict with Iran. Operation Epic Fury has dominated every headline and every dinner-table argument in the country. Oil has surged past $112 a barrel, gas is north of four bucks a gallon, and the Strait of Hormuz — the jugular vein of global energy — is effectively under Iranian blockade. President Trump has promised two to three more weeks of “extremely hard” strikes to finish the job.

But Tehran isn’t the only capital paying close attention.

Sophisticated, un-hackable drones circling American military installations. On our soil. Not hobbyist toys — state-level hardware. Chang connected the dots further to a suspicious device found near MacDill Air Force Base in Florida, which he suggested may trace back to Beijing.

His conclusion was chilling: “These are warnings that China intends to move on the U.S. in the American homeland.” [China Analyst Gordon Chang]

Boating accident in Intracoastal

The Cat that flipped looked like this Liberator.  They can reach speeds exceeding 100 mph

Catamaran flips 3 times in Intracoastal

Three people were injured, including two trauma alerts, when their 25-foot catamaran flipped over several times and partially sank in the Intracoastal Waterway near Summa Beach Park in West Palm Beach, responding local agencies and a witness told WPBF.

A witness said that the boat was probably going about 70, 80 miles an hour.

All three patients were taken by ground to St. Mary's Medical Center

The boat, which launched from Phil Foster Park, was moved by Sea Tow to Bryant Park in Lake Worth Beach then FWC's Jupiter location. A representative with the company told WPBF the boat was green and a 25-foot customized Liberator.

Trump wants famous Alcatraz to be a secure prison facility again

Trump puts $152 million behind Alcatraz revival as Democrats reach for any excuse to block it

The White House's fiscal year 2027 budget, released Friday, includes a $152 million request to begin transforming Alcatraz Island back into an operational federal prison.

The budget proposal states the funding would cover "the first year of project costs" to rebuild Alcatraz as a "state-of-the-art secure prison facility."

The request sits inside a broader $1.7 billion push for the Bureau of Prisons, aimed at modernizing facilities and ending a chronic correctional officer shortage.

Alcatraz housed some of the most dangerous criminals in the country, including Al Capone, George "Machine Gun" Kelly, and James "Whitey" Bulger. Robert "Birdman of Alcatraz" Stroud was there too. These were not misunderstood men. These were the worst the country had to offer, warehoused on an island where the geography itself served as a wall, as New York Post reports.

This is not a new idea that appeared from nowhere. Trump floated the concept publicly in May 2025, the administration commissioned feasibility studies, and then-Attorney General Pam Bondi and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum physically visited the island in July to assess the site. Bondi called it a "terrific facility." The budget line is the formal, institutional follow-through. The vision now has a dollar amount attached.

Now the Democrats are saying this is nuts and that Trump has dementia. They love to name call.

A direct appeal to the Court - Read/Listen to Mark Levin's Argument on Birthright Citizenship

Trump Just Put Mark Levin’s Birthright Citizenship Argument In Front Of SCOTUS

The Great One, a scholar of the Constitution, discussed it and Birthright Citizenship on Sunday night

President Donald Trump is escalating his push to end birthright citizenship, publicly urging the Supreme Court to take a closer look at a conservative legal argument that challenges more than a century of settled law.

In a post Monday at 12:57 a.m., Trump called on the justices to consider the views of Fox News host Mark Levin, who has argued that birthright citizenship rests on a flawed reading of the Constitution. The timing was notable. It came just after the Court heard oral arguments in a closely watched case over Trump’s executive order restricting automatic citizenship.

Trump’s message was blunt. He criticized the Court and suggested the justices should “study” Levin’s interpretation of the 14th Amendment.

Levin has been a leading voice among conservatives questioning birthright citizenship. His core argument is straightforward: the Constitution does not explicitly guarantee it. He also contends the 14th Amendment was written with a narrower purpose in mind, mainly to secure rights for formerly enslaved people after the Civil War, not to address modern immigration.

Supporters of Trump’s approach say the current understanding of birthright citizenship goes beyond what the framers of the 14th Amendment intended. They argue that correcting that interpretation does not require rewriting the Constitution, only applying it more accurately.

Levin held up a pocket manual of the United States Constitution of the very same one I have.
