Baseball doesn't need a salary cap. It just needs one for the Dodgers.

So, if selling a wedding cake to a gay couple is β€œparticipating in the wedding” … how come selling a gun to a shooter or murderer isn’t β€œparticipating in the murder” ?

The building division is in crisis. Something has to be done. The average time to issue permits has more than doubled in the last few years…..

This really should be what the housing variety and density of our cities and inner ring suburbs should look like:

Very dramatic. The city is still a wonderful place to be, and will continue to be.

Last night’s @cardinals.com game felt a lot like last year’s team, leaving runners on base, bats going cold in clutch situations, poor decision making… hopefully it was just a fluke and not indicative of a larger trend. #STLCardinals #Cardinals #StLouis #MLB

It’s election day, St. Louis! Make a plan and know your nearest polling place. These elections are so important! Please consider participating and casting your vote!

This whole country wants bad things for others more than they want good things for themselves.

This. It’s very difficult to continue willingly paying more in taxes to live here in the city than i would pay anywhere else in the region, yet get fewer or worse services. we need to focus on doing the basics well. we need some core competencies because we have zero right now.

This is what I'm fighting for.
This is what I can't look past.
This is why I'm running to be your next mayor.

The attack on DEI shows why liberals should stop arguing about "strategic" use of language forever. DEI stands for three uncontroversial virtues that most every American accepts, and the right still turned it into a vile slur. It doesn't matter what you say - they will poison it because YOU said it.

CALL TO ACTION: Call your representatives at (202) 224-3121 and ask what criteria they plan to use when β€œvetting” their constituents.

When holding on to your vacant building only costs you a measly $300/year in property taxes, where’s the incentive to do anything with it? There is none. We severely undervalue vacant buildings and vacant land.

Gravois Park’s vacancies, bad landlords and poorly maintained LRA properties all feel like they could be tackled with a huge ROI and yet there’s so little done by those with power.

So many of these in Gravois Park, my neighborhood. infuriating. If I had money I’d buy them all out and do it myself. I don’t understand why people leave their properties to rot and don’t try to do anything with them. Just waiting for someone else to do the work and sell when values rise i guess

This is a good time to remind everyone that this administration hasn't done anything for anyone. It has literally only taken away things we've already paid for and fired and sued people. Oh and the quid pro quo with Adams. That's the extent of what they have done. Kinda nuts.
