A lot of money has been spent telling voters that I’m too young and too idealistic. The reality is they’re afraid. Afraid I’m too close to you, the workers, immigrants, and renters — the people who make this city run. www.startribune.com/mpls-mayor-r...

I think the wealthy of this town are trying to rewrite history with their Precarious State circle jerk on all their corporate stations & papers

Some of you know me as an OG media reporter, but Brian Lambert, who I don’t think is on here, taught me. He had some great thoughts about Kupchella’s landlord ad & “journalism.” Sorry for no alt-text; these excerpts are too long. If you need alt please message me & I’ll shoot you an email or text.
