Broward Democrats Celebrate Muslim Ramadan, Ignore Christians On Ash Wednesday

2 Replies

A troubling national trend hit Broward yesterday as Democrats failed to recognize the start of the Christian Lenten season while celebrating the beginning of the Muslim Ramadan. The Democrat National Committee posted about Ramadan and even the Chinese New Year but remained silent on Ash Wednesday, the start of the Christian Holy Season. President Donald Trump and The White House made official remarks on Ramadan and Ash Wednesday.

One published report claims just 1.3% of Americans are Muslim.

Locally, some Broward Democrats mimicked their party line.

Democrat State House District 102 candidate Michael Friend made a Ramadan post on social media. “Wishing all celebrating a generous and meaningful Ramadan,” Friend wrote. He made no such wishes to Broward Christians celebrating Ash Wednesday.

Broward School Board Seat 6 candidate Roberto Fernandez conducted Muslim outreach as well. “Sending warm wishes for a calm and meaningful month to everyone observing. May this season bring thoughtful reflection, generous hearts, deep gratitude, and special moments shared with the people you cherish most,” Fernandez wrote.

Fernandez made no wishes to his Christian supporters on Ash Wednesday.

Broward Schools Backtracks, Restores Graduation Venues

The Class of 2026 won. The Broward School District ditched plans to save $500,000 by canceling graduation at high-priced venues like Hard Rock Live and the Broward Performing Arts Center. Students and parents were outraged that most graduates would receive diplomas at a rival school’s gymnasium.

In a Friday evening memo, Superintendent Howard Hepburn stated the cost cutting maneuvering was dead.

“Funding has been secured to ensure that each school will host its commencement ceremony in the same venue, or a comparable venue, as used in 2025.

Each graduate will be guaranteed a minimum of four guest tickets, regardless of venue. To ensure reliable, high-quality livestreaming for all families, the final graduation schedule will be limited to five locations.”

According to the memo, staff will submit a revised graduation schedule next week.
