In 1988, the Democratic-controlled U.S. House of Representatives took up the case, and Hastings was impeached for bribery and perjury by a vote of 413-3. He was then convicted in 1989 by the United States Senate becoming the sixth federal judge in the history of the United States to be removed from office by the Senate.
Of course that didn't stop south Florida voters from electing him to the House of Representatives in 1993. Now he is drawn to the Climate Change money like a fly to manure.
I used to live a couple of blocks east of that narrow ridge, and went to school on the other side of it. There it was, the one and only hill in all of South Florida. (I didn’t know that it extended so far north and south; I thought it was localized in southern Palm Beach County.)
I suppose that all the white people in the region must live on that ridge, and all the black and Hispanic and “Caribbean-American” people must live everywhere else. So when the seas rise, South Florida will be nothing more than a long, extremely narrow peninsula filled with nothing but white people.
What a surprise that article was——the rich have more than the poor.
As someone who grew up poor this really comes as a shock to me./s

Flagler built his RR on that ridge. If you follow the FEC RR tracks you’ll know where it is. Note places were , like Jensen Beach there is a very noticeable elevation above, the surrounding terrain.

;^} Wait for it: The seas wold not be rising if,, We the People, were allowed to store more water in our toilets and use more for bathing! Bad-da bing
The rain falleth on the just and unjust. Same with rising/falling sea levels.
These a holes can’t even predict tomorrow’s weather. Why do they keep building of the coast then?
Don’t forget the old people
Terrible. Relocate them to the Congo and Peru immediately!
