Your Move, Angela  |  Thorn 

In their first debate, Republican mayoral candidate Angela Leet attacked Mayor Greg Fischer on the issue of crime, stating as fact the existence of “children who step over body bags when they get off the bus.” Where do you live, Angela?! In the second debate, she said, “We have the homelessness of San Francisco, the violence of Chicago, and we are one employer away from becoming the next Detroit.” We won’t waste our ink and your time refuting her hyperbolic nonsense. What we want to know, Angela, is: When you lose the election, will you move from Louisville, since it is such a horrible place? (Which, by the way, you have some complicity in creating, as a councilwoman since 2015.)

Our grand and disgusting U.S. Sen. Mitch McConnell was hounded at dinner again, this time at Havana Rumba, and it was recorded. “I am going to sell it to TMZ,” the taper exhorted (she did), while the protester argued with other diners, and Mitch tried to retract his head into his down vest.

His mouth-hole is only for show and to spew nonsense and invective. Plus… we know he does not have a dog.

Now, the Courier Journal says Charles Grindle twice sought approval to work outside of his state job.
