Miami attorney compares legalizing medical marijuana to legalizing ...
In the wake of a constitutional amendment creating a broader medical marijuana market in Florida, cities around the state are preparing for the expansion of cannabis retail outlets. Miami not so much.

In fact, the mere thought of doing so seems taboo in City Hall. Adam Gersten learned as much late W..>> view originalDavid Beckham group unveils new Miami stadium plan
David Beckham’s Miami negotiators unveiled an airy, open-roof stadium for Overtown Wednesday night, a retooled design that still sticks with the central premise that the 25,000-seat soccer venue doesn’t need parking facilities. “We’re going to be encouraging the use of Metromover, Metrorail, water taxis, ride-sharing,” said Spencer Crowley, a lawyer and lobbyist representing Miami Beckham United in its talks with Miami-Dade to buy a parcel needed for its nine-acre stadium site near the Miami R..>> view originalGimenez vows to 'change the narrative' of Liberty Square as ...
Eighteen months of lobbying and politicking gave way Wednesday at Liberty Square like symbolic piles of white sand beneath the spades of ceremonial shovels as Miami-Dade County broke ground on a $307 million redevelopment. Now the question is what will break next: the stigma surrounding the county’s oldest and largest public housing project, or the lofty promises floated Wednesday by Miami’s politicians and businessmen. “This is going to be a renaissance,” said County Commissioner Audrey Edmons..>> view originalMiscues doom Marlins to shutout loss against Astros
Something didn’t feel right. Over and over during Miami’s game against Houston on Wednesday, the Marlins just couldn’t quite make plays when they needed to. There was a drop here. A strikeout there. A miscommunication somewhere else. And by the end, it all piled up and cost Miami in a 3-0 loss to the Astros, giving Houston the sweep and plummeting the Marlins further into the abyss. Miami (14-25) has now lost 17 of its last 21 games and sits in last place in the National League East. Wednesd..>> view originalMiami Hurricanes Football: The Big Three for 2017

Miami has long been considered one of America’s major melting pots, but local leaders think that different communities aren’t meeting, mixing and sharing ideas. They plan to change that starting next week through a 10-day event called Connect Miami. Leaders from the Miami Foundation, MCCJ, the Miami Herald, the United Way of Miami-Dade and the Children’s Trust birthed the idea late last year. And starting Monday through May 31 there will be several events intended to bring people together in Mi..>> view originalFrom artificial limbs to fashion lines, Silver Knight winners have ...

One of the Trump administration’s first decisions about the fight against the Islamic State was made by Michael Flynn weeks before he was fired – and it conformed to the wishes of Turkey, whose interests, unbeknownst to anyone in Washington, he’d been paid more than $500,000 to represent. The decision came 10 days before Donald Trump had been sworn in as president, in a conversation with President Barack Obama’s national security adviser, Susan Rice, who had explained the Pentagon’s plan to ret..>> view originalMiami reality TV star must explain why she can't unlock Phone in ...
Under orders from a judge, a Miami reality TV star facing trial in an extortion case involving sex videos provided her iPhone password to police. It didn’t work. Now, a Miami-Dade judge has ordered Hencha Voit, and her boyfriend, to take the stand at another hearing to explain why they can’t unlock their phones for police. The hearing on Wednesday employed some high-tech security to test the code.

Miami Rep. Carlos Curbelo appears to have been the first Republican member of Congress to publicly suggest it might rise to an impeachable offense — obstruction of justice — if President Donald Trump asked former FBI Director James Comey to stop investigating former National Security Adviser Michael Flynn’s Russia ties.
