Government likes saying “Buy American” but doesn’t like doing it - USDA cuts funding for schools and local farmers and calls the best way to invest taxpayer.$ in our communities a “left-wing effort”.

Kentucky schools and farmers are reeling after the Trump administration cancelled more than $1 billion nationally in grant allocations for schools and food banks to buy local produce.

I wrote this to reflect on how little has changed over the last 50 years in Louisville AND how what defines us can also inform a vision for growth that offers opportunity for all. Can Louisville envision a positive vision for its future?
courier-journal.com
Since 1974, every other major city in our region (Indianapolis, Nashville, Cincinnati, Columbus) has outpaced Louisville in growth and vitality.

Sadly for Kentucky, AppHarvest was a fraud before it started and both its founder and lead investor are shape-shifters, counting on gullible Americans who will buy their latest message. They may even believe it themselves. But we don’t have to.
nytimes.com
During JD Vance’s brief career as a venture capitalist, few startups attracted his support more than AppHarvest, a now bankrupt plan to build greenhouses across Appalachia.

Feels like this is more about affordable housing than process - has any council member opposed the ways that too many market-rate developers do the same thing? @LDG_Development should not bear an undue burden to do its good work.

The corner property where Baxter meets Bardstown is for sale: how about making this the new HQ for LMPD's 5th Division?

The property has been home to several restaurants, including KFC, the short-lived KFC Eleven, Yang Kee Noodle and, most recently, Maple Street Biscuit Co.

With love to all the Greenbergs, this photo is a great way to remember a mother who was outrageously proud of her son Craig, her daughter Jennifer, and her grandchildren. She was also an advocate for women’s health, a cause her adopted state rarely embraces. A legacy to honor.
Right as I left the State of the City today, I got the news my mom, Ruth, passed away after a brief illness. She was an amazing person who made a positive impact on so many people’s lives. 1/2

It’s hard to imagine Louisville if Ben Richmond had not come to lead the @LouisvilleUL in 1987. His decades of service made us a better city and supported a next generation of leaders like Sadiqa Reynolds and @sonofEarl33. RIP.

Ben Richmond was remembered as a cornerstone of local social activism and as an advocate for economic equality.

Everyone in Louisville should read this excellent and shocking story detailing the generations of LMPD officers who have openly abused West End and South End citizens, laughed about it, and faced too little consequences for too long. We need to demand better.
Louisville Police officers from an "elite" unit threw drinks at civilians from unmarked cars. They recorded their attacks. Today @courierjournal is publishing some of those videos, alongside a look at how that kind of misconduct proliferated. My latest:.

Who expected the definitive story of Louisville’s biggest win in the last decade would be published in @runnersworld? Even if you think you know all about the @NortonSLC read this to remember that Louisville can do transformative things when we support leaders.with real vision.
