- Jim devotes the entire half hour to Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava who faces a half-dozen challengers in next month’s primary election. While the race is officially nonpartisan, party politics are an element of campaigning in 2024, and four of the candidates running against Levine Cava are Republicans. The mayoral race will end with the primary if Levine Cava can secure more than 50% of the vote. The primary comes at a time when the Mayor is facing controversy on a number of fronts. Jim and Levine Cava discuss, among other things, the ongoing mess at Miami International Airport, trash collection and fees, and the county budget.
Guest: Mayor Daniella Levine Cava/Miami-Dade County
Catch Facing South Florida With Jim DeFede Sunday at 11:30AM ET

We understand budgets should reflect inflation, but only to a degree. A HUGE portion of our budget is from fixed costs, not affected by inflation. For the county's budget to grow parallel with inflation, or exceed it, is unconscionable. People's income has not kept pace with inflation, which has gone up 29% since the mayor took office. Those of us on fixed income like SS, have lost the equivalent of about 26% of our purchasing power in the same period.
And frankly, I don't know where our money has gone. I see a reduction of services, worsening services and worsening condition of our infrastructure. I see roadways with unrepaired potholes, an international airport with broken escalators, worsening water quality in canals, lakes, and beaches, traffic lights that are still not synchronized, less police presence, and I could go on.
I'm not voting for this mayor again.
Mayor Cava cannot defend any of this, and she cannot point to any progress on any front, despite her claim to fame gargantuan projects. Where are they?
I believe our money is not well spent. There are misplaced priorities, and diversion of Trust funds must also be taking place. Her management of our finances deserve an independent investigation. We've had zero accountability, and with that, total impunity for this mayor to run us into the poorhouse.
We lost control of the expressway authority. That too is a black eye.
Gosh, I could go on, but I'll stop there. Enough said. Wake up Dade County!
LYING LYING LYING AS ALWAYS.
No friggin train to Florida City from North Dade, why isn't there a fast rail already?
Why?
Because this mayor is RECKLESS spending OUR money with NOTHING to show for it.
Vote her out!
Otaola 2024
Why would Mayor Lavigne negotiate up for real estate deals? When no one else was trying to buy it make it make sense then someone reported wrote about it and she backed out. 🤨
because she's a developer herself. She knows how to profit from these deals...
@@miguelquintero9747 hey Miguel my friend has a podcast. I think you’ll be a great fit. Getting the word out. Dm me your contact
Mayor sharing his food might solve hunger in America
Jim is not the mayor. 🤣
OTAOLA2024 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Jim did a very good interview. Now i know for sure what changes I will vote for.
She is the same liar politician, and she has done a horrible job
Budget has grown a thousand per year you would think we all the new housing that we wouldn’t have taxes increased but we still did. In 2022 I paid 800 and now in 2023 4500.00 that’s literally my 3% yearly raise to taxes instead of me enjoying the money I made .
Daniella Levine Cava is all talk, all tax. Where is the Metrorail extension construction? Where is the commuter rail down south to Homestead? Oh... She focused on the "Better Bus Network," which really turned out to be the Broken Bus NOTwork! She's bloated the size of government, and she wants to raise taxes even further & float a $2.5B bond?! NO!
There are so many challenges to running a county than one can even imagine! Politicians are human beings. DLC has done more for Miami-Dade residents and our natural landscapes than the last mayor. Daniella has my vote (again).
Manny CID for mayor
YES!
ALEX OTAOLA FOR MAYOR !!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Love Our Madam Mayor! 4 more years 🎉😊
I’m voting for you , it not the first time .
TY
The Mayor lied on nearly every question. Christian Ulvert came to my house and offered a quid pro quo to drop out of the race. The incinerator is going back to Doral, everyone knows it. The Mayor claims to know everything but knows nothing at the same time. Commissioner Regalado has the contract to operate the jails, yet the Mayor doesn't know? She mentioned this 2 weeks ago to the Miami Herald. This Mayor doesn't pay her share of taxes and has committed perjury on her Form 6, you didn't ask about that even though you have the evidence. This is all smoke and mirrors and you are culpable in the bamboozlement of the public. How much did the Mayor pay you and CBS for this interview? How much did the Mayor pay to keep other candidates off your program? Why haven't you mentioned any other candidates or had them on your program except Otaola who everyone knows doesn't have a chance to win? There are federal lawsuits against the county because of constitutional violations by the county. No mention...Jim, you are bought. Where is my interview? I'm on the ballot (Miguel Quintero). How much do I have to pay for an interview like this? What a sham. You are on notice and I'm calling you out. You have done a great disservice to the public and you should be ashamed. I bet you take down this comment because you know full well you are allowed to be bought and you are. You and CBS have the right to censor and remove comments. But this will still come out. The public has the right to know the truth.
The public has the right to know the Mayor engages in dirty politics and no mention of that. The Mayor and her business partner Richard Cava engage in illegal activities and no mention of that. You have all this evidence. Again, no mention.
Interview me and prove me wrong...I'm on the Ballot (Miguel Quintero). No mention of the dirty politics of removing my bonafide nickname? No. Because you are bought. This was a sham interview. Ask me the hard questions, you get straight to the point answers. Good luck, I'm calling you out.
And people will run to the polls to vote for her, Crazy!!!
@@southrichmondtoflthat and she will pay to drive the elderly to the polls to vote for her.
She needs to win in August because she knows she loses in November.
Thx for commenting. I appreciate you.
Look into Manny CID, Shlomo Danzinger or any other. Doesn’t have to be me, these guys are great. :)
Not this time. Keep speaking up on these platforms. I Learned a lot from this interview. Very condescending response from Mrs. Levine. Also seems to me she’s catering more to the new people coming in and not to the people that are here. She didnt answer anything! Pure deflection at its finest
🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲 OTAOLA 2024 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
@@flashylashiesyou said it best. I supported her and voted for her in 2020 and now I’m running because of her. Never again!! She’s a liar. She’s trying to shut down my art school and it’s 100% legal. But I’m fighting it and winning. All I want now is her out. The public has the right to know what she’s all about.
Thank you for commenting. Your opinion matters and I’m thankful you shared it. :)
It's crazy people vote for BIG government, BIG budgets, BIG pensions for yearly hiring increases for government jobs, HIGHER taxes! People will run to the polls to vote for her! Crazy!! And oh by the way, you can't afford housing because of BIG government for which you voted for!
Do you use roads? Libraries? Public schools? Or you just exist in the woods living off the land w no electricity?
@@mrjonathank92BIG brain answer
@@mrjonathank92 you missed the point, also you missed the irony of a democrat asking a democrat about her corruption, but by all means run vote for the status quo. What I use is beside the point, your taxes will increase, your fuel bill will increase. And oh by the way, you'll now have to pay for an elected sheriff that will immediately put together a corruption unit because Dave can't self control corruption, ANOTHER tax increase.
Her administration has actually cut taxes or kept rates the same. What are you talking about?
THIS is what political incompetence looks and sounds like.
You have 9 BILLION DOLLARS for the airport, and you can't get it in world-class condition?
Your level of incompetence is alarming and worrisome, not worthy of re-election.
JIM,
I want to thank you for your no-pity cohesive crystal clear common sense questions. Can't say the same for her finger-pointing grabbing at straws answers. She has been a huge disappointment.
You are a force of journalistic code of ethics that can not be questioned, truthful, and accurate..
I have a strong feeling you know who the next mayor is going to be. You may not like him, but the legions who do are going to vote for him and can't wait to. He is a serious candidate with clear talking points in the campaign.
I hope you get to moderate the candidates!!! Do it solo. You don't need company.
