Dallas, TX
From the great Larry Good in today’s paper. Was anyone aware that the Mavericks gave the city a Feb deadline? This explains the city’s panic and the full court press by oligarchs.

Yup, that’s the #txlege party monster’s mom.

DMN’s public editor is no more. Not a surprise: contract employee, never moved to Dallas and surely the Hearst purchase of DMN impacted his role. cc @jayrosen.bsky.social

Here’s a post in August from The Crooner. He has these show and tell meetings when he smells consulting money. So, it’s likely talks started getting serious in late summer.

From today’s DMN, letters to the editor. “We” and “University Park.”

Well, Brian. She was planning to run when it looked like Paxton would be impeached and Eric was going to for AG. She had fundraisers and her consultants told people she would run. The boss of Dallas bosses gave her money. However, she knows she can’t win in a regular mayoral election cycle.

From May 2022 when Eric was thinking of leaving & Mendelsohn was planning a mayoral run. She created a new web site/URL and her consultants in Austin blabbed about her intentions. The other big mouth was Willis da Crooner who chased and feted her to get some “community outreach” campaign $.

I was puzzled by this post from the past weekend. “What’s with the gaslighting,” I thought. He must have been telling everyone at TX/OU that’s he’s running for AG, plus Cara is looking for a new govt job b/c she can’t win the mayor seat.

Have questions about the direction of CBS News? Your Dallas-based stan of its new leader is here to answer your questions.

Three of the five events they selected are violence/death related.

It’s hilarious that Mayor Mattie has still not joined Eric’s grifty mayors association.
September 15, 2025 at 9:12 PM
Please send your condolences to our faux heartbroken mayor. What a grifter.

There is no evidence that the AWOL mayor’s workforce initiative, one of his few policy pillars, is successful. None. Zilch. Zero. In the past, McBee was said to be frustrated with this role and the mayor.

The focus of the show was Dallas’s financial hub, not socialism. Also, he said this lie: “We don’t really feel the need to throw incentives around to get people to invest in Dallas and move to Dallas.” Council literally incentivized Goldman Sachs to build. And they give away $ all the time.

Sharing this tweet from January because I’m certain CM Mendelsohn actually believes that this only applies to her enemies, not LEO. We’ll find out in 2026.
August 18, 2025 at 8:21 PM
Same story, but DMN editors frame it one way on Bluesky (bottom) and the web site (top) as another.
August 6, 2025 at 7:20 PM
From yesterday. How do you know the city is “stronger than ever” if you are not present and you do the absolute minimum?
June 18, 2025 at 6:31 PM
A feature of Dallas CM Mendelsohn is her continued interaction with racist or/or fascist people and groups or, like below, bots.
May 13, 2025 at 4:08 PM
Sure, Jan. Last year she changed her URL to carafordallas.org and she’s raised a lot of money in the last two years through “The Families” and B_G real estate. More important, her big mouthed political consultants have been telling people she’s running.

This sounds like someone who lost their fortune on crypto and had to sell their NBA team at below book value.
