Standard PSA: The Strib is owned by 85-year-old billionaire/and former GOP state senator Glen Taylor who said he bought the paper in 2014 to turn it in a more right-wing direction. So Strib LOVES DFLers who are basically GOPers--hence paper's love for Angie Craig & "rising star" Jacob Frey. 1/

Transition Team (the transportation company on site who contracts with MPS) has been trying to work with the city to expand their business and clean up the site for a couple years, but the city has other ideas 🧐
whiting says city will be required to do quite a bit of environmental mitigation due to the condition of the site having once stored diesel school buses

Apartments CM didn’t mention: City Limits (17 buildings owned by large landlord in US), Renew apartments on Lyndale, Windom Gables, and the hidden Wexon Commons that’s only accessible via 62nd st. Cop city would be in the center of the homes of the poorest families in Windom neighborhood.
nicollet ave has “giant apartment complexes” adds the dad, wondering if the city has done studies on the environmental impact of this. will there be more vehicles driving? will it be louder?

Lastly, the City has not been transparent – e.g., their webpage does not disclose chemical weapons training, but neighbors found it buried in another government document.
Please spread the word about this so-called “Safety Center”!

Jacob Frey promoted himself through gay signaling, leveraging the Big Gay Race and marriage equality with two wives and short short jorts in the Pride parade. He also always supported drug decriminalization.
Now he’s selling out the LGBTQ community & setting the city back decades on public health.

Chief has said there are officers on patrol who are unable to identify the crime of murder. Some don’t think George Floyd was murdered.
“One trend we identified in reviewing body-worn camera footage and police
reports is that patrol officers’ understanding of state law and MPD policy varied.”

The Minneapolis Police Department's response to the shooting of Davis Moturi by his neighbor and the death of Allison Lussier were marked by slow response times and inconsistent applications of law and policy, an after-action report found.
