I'd like to see a full-throated defense of our city's progressive values and how they have contributed to our marked recent successes in public safety, especially in comparison to cities that have pursued aggressive policies that put communities at risk for crime and poor health outcomes.

Watch Rubio.
GLENN: Why don't you wear a suit? You're at the highest level in this country's office & you refuse to wear a suit. A lot of Americans have problems with you not respecting the office.

Also, here's the opening paragraph. Is it nonsense to boo the team of a country that's threatened to annex your country?

Trump's threat to annex Canada is mentioned in the seventh paragraph www.bostonglobe.com/2025/02/14/s...

What would you like to have reported about Wu and Kraft's competing rent-control proposals that I didn't include today?
2/2 Factually TRUE, but "real" relief, isn’t "real" rent control. @reillyadam.bsky.social isn’t practicing journalism. He’s unpacking press releases. We need more in this campaign from journalists. #ImJustSaying🤦🏾‍♂️ #PolicyPLS #BOSpoli + #MApoli #TheyNotLikeUs
