Just walked from Milo’s on the Hill, home to FPSE. This shit has changed the game up.

St. Louis needs to stop saying, "No, that won't or can't happen," and start asking, "Why not St. Louis," and make it happen.

The leg of Central Industrial Dr. has been relocated away from the Tower Grove & Vandeventer intersection as part of the TG Connector project, and is now open. You can also see the greenway taking shape along the south side of Vandeventer as construction moves east:

@ScottOgilvieSTL This is really turning out to be a beautiful road project — perhaps the best I’ve see our city develop. Great work, Scott — and to all that had a role as well.

[Patrick R. Brown @iPRB]

@Melteenteen @forallcurious Truly great reply.

[Jemele Hill @jemelehill]

Every media organization needs to put out this kind of statement.

Damn, not Kevin’s mom. 🕊️

BREAKING: Timberwolves held a moment of silence for Alex Pretti.

The second it ended, the arena erupted into loud “F*ck ICE!” chants.

[Bill Clinton @BillClinton]

Over the course of a lifetime, we face only a few moments where the decisions we make and the actions we take will shape our history for years to come.  This is one of them.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

[Patrick R. Brown @iPRB]

ICE murdered a man yesterday. They were scared after assaulting him and discovering he had a handgun, for which he had a permit. In a state where conceal carry is legal. He literally died for the second amendment and it was the US govt that executed him. https://t.co/UBEpntTKRe

#SLMPD Traffic Safety officers assisted two electric vehicles so far today after they ran out of power and became disabled.

We support EVs—but drivers should be mindful that extreme cold can significantly impact range. Plan ahead in subzero weather. #STLwx

Good morning to Melania Trump’s homeland of Slovenia and to this amazing magazine cover showing her husband with Hitler moustache made of crude oil. 🇸🇮🇪🇺

Slovenes cooked severely here.

[Brian Krassenstein @krassenstein]

Nicolás Maduro was not a good guy. His brand of socialism and authoritarian rule devastated Venezuela and crushed democratic institutions. There’s no serious argument that the country is better off under his leadership.

Venezuela deserves democracy.

But believing that does not mean the US gets to break international law, ignore Congress, and unilaterally overthrow the government of a sovereign nation to “police the world.”

So a simple question for MAGA:

Are you still against regime change and endless U.S. intervention abroad, or was that principle only convenient before Trump did it?

You don’t get to oppose imperial overreach in theory and cheer it in practice when your guy is the one pulling the trigger.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month.

It’s about oil and regime change.

And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from Epstein + skyrocketing healthcare costs.

@Beganovic2025 It’d be less of a drag if the surrounding street grid wasn’t chopped up and lights were synchronized. Somehow, formerly a million city residents navigated these 62sq miles efficiently. Should be much easier than it is to move our existing traffic volumes through the city.

[Denis Beganovic @Beganovic2026]

If the city and county homicides were combined, the rate per 100,000 would be about 12.8-13.5. That would be in about the middle of the pack of the largest 50 cities. Dallas, Phoenix, Houston are in the 11-15 per 100k range. NYC is around 5 per 100k.

Baby It’s Cold Outside! It’s going to get colder as we move forward. That means we must bundle-up and check on our elderly neighbors. Please avoid unsafe methods of heating your home and prepare your turkey safely. Avoid home fires. Get those smoke alarms. #HappyThanksgiving!
