Yes. Shameless.

This is the newspaper that charges you an extra fee to mail your bill to you. Adding insult to injury, they have the chutzpah to request charitable donations.

When they view neighborhoods as drive in destinations for suburbanites; losing essential services for communities that live there is a secondary concern.

Entertainment becomes the measuring stick. They see that income as the only way to “sustain” poorer areas. Instead of addressing root causes.

because also what businesses have been lost in uptown? all they talk about is restaurants like lagos taco. which sucks, but this is not the same as stevens square losing essential services like a pharmacy, a hardware store, a dollar store, and a thrift store for clothes and home goods in a poor area

This is what public safety looks like under Jacob Frey.

It’s time we had a mayor who will keep us safe.

Davis Moturi was shot almost a year ago.

He’s still looking for answers as to why his calls for help were ignored.

Israel violating a ceasefire deal as a mob of Israeli settlers attack an American journalist and Palestinian grandma & an Israeli soccer match has to be cancelled because of violent fans is all the worse when you remember the deal calls to "de-radicalize" Palestinians and not Israelis

Come November 1st when SNAP benefits get shut off I want to make sure we’re all on the same page.

We didn’t see ANYONE “steal” food from the store. Nope. That person walked out with a full cart and as far as we’re ALL concerned they paid we just didn’t see it.

We. Saw. Nothing.

Mayor Frey says it's his opponents who will give us encampment shootings, fires and explosions.

Interviewer fails to follow up with "All those horrific examples have happened while you've been mayor. How many terms do you need to get that under control?"

Random fact I recently learned: in the NES/Famicom port Batista dies after you defeat him at the end, but in the arcade game he escapes, fleeing Cuba just like in real life
