This is a very important lawsuit. The purpose of the board bill to get rid of Interco Plaza wasn't just another goody/favor for a developer. It's about setting the precedent for selling off City park land.

So many in media are ill-equipped to interview officials about what’s happening because they begin with the presumption of legitimacy and don’t know enough about history or U.S. foreign policy to foment intelligent pushback and hold officials accountable.
