It’s been a year to the day we bought (and then didn’t, for reasons we still don’t fully know) InfoWars. We’re still trying. In the year since, we built The Onion into one of the biggest newspapers in the United States. I’m so proud of this place. I’m proud we do hard stuff. Thank you for caring.

I am heartbroken and furious over the shooting at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis. Kids should be learning, laughing, making friends — not running for their lives on the very first week of school.
How many more children will live this nightmare before our elected leaders do something?

A photo of Sen Hoffman watching his daughter Hope speak at Disability Visibility Day at the Capitol. You can see the love between them on his face. Hope is the reason more people were not gunned down yesterday. She’s a force in the disability community and a hero to our state.

It goes back to the General fund.
This is an example of responsive local government: Best case scenario, we would meet an urgent need in our community.
Worst case scenario, public dollars go back to the public.
The Council led with our values when the Mayor chose not to lead at all.

I’m gonna ask this again, hopefully someone knowledgeable can answer: how much of the $1.5 million got spent? Strib story didn’t say. It would seem to matter - if nothing got spent, the money is still there for something else, or to reduce property taxes. Thanks for any firm info.

A housing first approach to our homelessness crisis means taking every possible action to preserve shelter beds.
Imagine how much more we could get done if we ended the era of division in our city and had a Mayor willing to work with the Council and the community to solve our toughest problems.
