Miami Beach Mayor Steven Meiner joins Gabe to talk about what it actually takes to keep a city safe and thriving. From ending chaotic spring breaks to enforcing time, place & manner rules that protect free speech and residents, Meiner lays out a practical playbook. They also hit on homelessness reductions, keeping the city clean, traffic relief (including a coming water taxi), and long-term resiliency.
The conversation goes beyond City Hall: Meiner discusses leading openly as an Orthodox Jew, pushing back on rising antisemitism, and his new Israel food-security resiliency fund aimed at strengthening domestic production and independence.
Plus: a message for New Yorkers eyeing Miami Beach and why his goal is simple—“the safest city in America.”
