The Key West Post

The impact of Maduro's Downfall has been celebrated all over the world. The impact will be felt soon in Key West. The desire for freedom is innate, and it doesn't geographical boundaries. America began as an idea—one grounded in freedom and built on the belief that our rights come from God, not government. From that foundation grew a nation shaped by liberty and the pursuit of happiness. And that idea didn’t stay where it started. It inspired people across the world.

Opinion: The Illegal Immigration Scam-If the people shouting the loudest truly cared about immigrants—or about their neighbors—they would support an orderly, legal immigration system that protects everyone. Immigrants should not be exploited, and U.S. citizens should not be put at risk. What unfolded in Key West exposed something far uglier: a two-faced political performance that preached compassion while quietly profiting from lawlessness. That hypocrisy came into full view

From Rainbow Crosswalks to Rainbow Fences in Key West: The debate first surfaced with rainbow-painted crosswalks, which were removed earlier this year by the Florida Department of Transportation. The removals weren't unique to Key West and followed similar actions taken in other Florida cities. Most city commissioners, the mayor, and their voters defied the law until, much like the immigration issue, Governor DeSantis stepped in to reinforce it.  While many residents anticipa

Food Pantries & Outrage Politics in Key West: If you received e‑mails asking for campaign donations after false accusations that commissioners refused to help food pantries, that was no accident—it was part of a calculated plan. The tactic is familiar: first, say something outrageous to get voters angry. Then, climb on the soapbox and beat down the strawman you created. The goal is to demonize your opponent so you look better. 

School Board Member Sue Woltanski's Liberal Ideology: After attending the State Board of Education meeting on 11/13/25 near Tallahassee, Woltanski posted a blog article mocking everything they said and voted to approve. Thankfully, the meeting was recorded and people can watch the video and compare it to the liberal twist she puts on what actually happened at the there. She makes a list in her blog of the "troubling moments" at the meeting. Only a liberal like her would ca

Sue Woltanski has filed for re-election to the Monroe County School Board, District 5. Though school board races are technically nonpartisan, Woltanski has long aligned herself with liberal policies. Just days before announcing her campaign, she published a blog post criticizing conservative leaders and organizations like Moms for Liberty as “far right” and accused them of “taking over” education.

The First Amendment applies to everybody. The Second Amendment comes immediately after the First Amendment for a reason. Our founders understood that the right to bear arms was not just about hunting or sport—it was about protecting the most fundamental freedom of all: the freedom of expression. Without the ability to defend that right, speech itself can be silenced. History proves the point. Just 90 miles from our Key West shores, Cuba offers a stark reminder. When the Com

The Lasting Influence of Charlie Kirk on Young Conservatives: Many have rallied together, determined to honor his legacy and continue advocating for conservative principles. Kirk's death has become a motivational force for young conservatives, inspiring them to engage more actively in the political realm. Many have organized marches, participated in debates, and joined local political groups. In today's fast-changing political landscape, few individuals have stirred as m
