I’ll now be voting for @SenSanders on March 10. Thanks, @ewarren , for getting us that much closer to having a woman in the White House. I believe we will get there one day and until then I’ll keep fighting for it. #WarrenToBernie

Lake Mead gets lower while people here in STL water their grass (and their sidewalks) like water doesn’t matter. Lawns are hours of work, wasted water, often chemical laced, and provide no benefits to wildlife. Grow something else, folks! Here’s a list:

Administration of justice requires the judiciary, the police, public defenders, and the prosecutor’s office work together fairly and efficiently. When they don’t, we are all less safe. I do not have confidence in Kim Gardner’s willingness to do her part.

Stacking your unflattened boxes by the recycling bin is dumping. It can incur up to a $1,000 fine per incident. Your neighbors can (and, in my opinion, should) read your address, take photos, and report to @stlcsb . The disrespect this shows city workers is unacceptable.
