objectively, in Frey's whole 8 yrs, has his leadership in the area of gun violence or gun control been even mid or significant? Now trying to portray him as a leading voice? His response to the 11yr old Black child gun death was to launch a PR campaign for gun owners thru MPD
There were so many community members, community leaders, community voices at this meeting in North Minneapolis Folwell park in July, folks who have been this voice for a long time, Princess Titus, Toshira Garroway. - Jacob Frey was not there. www.mprnews.org/episode/2025...
Frey shows up and exhibits leadership for victims when they are SW Minneapolitans. It's part of how he got elected in 2017 after the police killing of Justine Damond, and it's going to play in to his reelection campaign now.
He said the right things on Wednesday, getting out in front of the Thoughts and Prayers brigade, and the coming anti-trans attacks. But this leadership has been missing from the vast majority of his terms in office, most disastrously in 2020.
why didn’t he condemn McAfee for his homophobic & violent language toward his own city council colleagues?
AND his administration wanted to keep McAfee after one of McAfee’s employees shot up a neighborhood
He has a new contract.
hooooooo yikes
City council voted to reject the new contract that Frey’s administration proposed for McAfee
Oh good.
If McAfee had gone after Palmisano, Vetaw, or Rainville, he'd have been all over it.
