Democrats Fear Midterm Elections by R.J. Matson, CQ Roll Call
Democrats Fear Midterm Elections by R.J. Matson, CQ Roll Call



Weather: Mostly sunny. Highs in the upper 70s. East winds 10 to 15 mph with gusts up to 25 mph. Friday Night: Partly cloudy in the evening, then becoming mostly cloudy. Lows in the mid 60s. East winds 5 to 10 mph.

Today at the Editor’s Glance:

In Court: The only thing going on at the courthouse today are foreclosure sales. None of the judges have court sessions.

Free For All Fridays With Host David Ayres on WNZF: Host David Ayres welcomes Mark Langello, current president of the Flagler County Home Builders Association, and Palm Coast City Council member Ed Danko, with discussion focuse don development, starting a little after 9 a.m. with my commentary on the color of justice.

“Truly off the Beaten Path”: the Flagler County Public Library hosts its latest free history presentations by Zach Zacharias, Senior Curator of Education and History at the Museum of Arts and Sciences in Daytona Beach, at 3 p.m. at the Flagler County Public Library, 2500 Palm Coast Pkwy NW, Palm Coast. Topic: “Truly off the Beaten Path.” Florida as a whole and our local area as so many unique and “off the beaten path” places to visit. Discover natural wonders, scenic drives, and historic places not found in most of the books that promote “off the beaten path” destinations in Florida. The presentation is designed for residents who live in the state but are looking for truly hidden gems that most “off the beaten path” books don’t know about. Discover places like: Bio Lab Road, Scott Springs, and even a cold war era nuclear launch base in the Everglades now a national historic site open to visitors. If you have any questions please contact the library at (386)446-6763. Sponsored and paid for by the Friends of the Library of Flagler County.

“Proof,” the David Auburn play, is staged at the Flagler Playhouse, 301 E Moody Blvd, Bunnell. Thursday, Friday, Saturday at 7:30 p.m., Sunday at 2 p.m. Tickets are $15 to $20. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, the Tony Award for Best Play and Drama Desk for Best Play. David Auburn’s first play is a play about family, mental health and math. Catherine, a grad student in mathematics, has found a solution to a previously unsolvable proof. At the same time she has been caring for her father, a brilliant mathematician in decline. With the proof as a fulcrum, Catherine must come to terms with her discovery and her father’s legacy. This show contains foul language.

Now this: We’re featuring the three student soloists who performed at the Flagler Youth Orchestra’s season-ending Chords Concert at the Flagler Auditorium on April 25. All three are graduating seniors playing in their last concert. They performed pieces of their choosing, backed up by the full Harmony Chamber Orchestra, the FYO’s top ensemble, under the direction of Joe Corporon. Today: Luka Tristam (yes, my son, with apologies for the jitters) Vittorio Monti’s “Czardas.”

Reporters, it can be reported on the highest authority, are more or less normal human beings, with about as much ambition, competitive fire, desire for status and affluence, fear, caution, ethics, honesty, and guile as the rest of the human race. Therefore, they can be and often are manipulated, threatened, rewarded, punished, cajoled, and conned into doing what their news sources want them to do sometimes without even realizing that they have been any of the above.

–From Tom Wicker’s “On Press” (1978).

Asking tough questions is increasingly met with hostility. The political climate—nationally and right here in Flagler County—is at war with fearless reporting. Officials and powerbrokers often prefer echo chambers to accountability. They want news that flatters, not news that informs. They want stenographers. We give them journalism. You know by now, after 16 years, that FlaglerLive won’t be intimidated. We dig. We don't sanitize to pander or please. We report reality, no matter who it upsets. Even you. But standing up to this kind of pressure requires resources. We need a community that values courage over comfort. Stand with us, and help us hold the line. Fund the journalism they don't want you to read. No paywall. But it's not free. Take a moment, become a champion of enlightening journalism. Any amount helps.
