A book café in North Miami that kicked out Fox News political analyst Gianno Caldwell over his conservative views recently shut down.

Paradis Books & Bread announced its closure following internal struggles and lack of business one year after Caldwell was removed from the establishment, according to a statement on the business’ website posted in February.

“We’ve come to the end of the line, and we’re ending this project on our own terms,” the announcement read. “To our haters, we suppose congratulations are in order, so you can go ahead and stop reading now!”

Caldwell was having breakfast with friends when he was told to leave the book café in Jan. 2023, Miami News Times reported. The conservative commentator spoke out about the incident on Fox & Friends Weekend and Twitter, explaining that his group was discussing what it was like “working over at Fox News,” their “values,” “violent crime” and “progressive [district attorneys]” before they were shown the exit.

“I can’t believe what just happened,” Caldwell wrote on Twitter after the incident. “I met up with friends for breakfast at Paradis Books and Bread in North Miami & while we were having discussions about politics we were told by the owners that we were not welcomed there because we aren’t politically aligned. Outrageous.”

Paradis Books & Bread said they removed Caldwell and his friends from their business, making clear their “zero-tolerance policy” for the groups’ opposing political views, the outlet reported. The book café said that one person in Caldwell’s group responded by saying “That is your business model, and I respect that” before they left.

The Miami-based book café stated that the incident led to negative attention online, according to the outlet.

“Since the incident, we have been getting harassed on the internet, specifically on t*itter, google reviews, and… on this platform,” Paradis Books & Bread wrote on Instagram at the time.

Paradis Books & Bread opened in 2021, according to the announcement. The business also cited “shockingly high demand for food” among the reasons for its closure.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
