Time for a career update: I accepted an MMJ position with @newspressnow in St. Joseph! I just finished my first full week and made my TV debut! It wasn't the most conventional route going from digital to radio and now TV, but I wouldn't have changed a thing.

I was talking trash (assessing KC's trash needs) in my FIRST appearance on @KCURUpToDate this morning! Been wanting to get on the show for a while! Another item off the bucket list ✅️

Talk of a potential landfill in south Kansas City is making the city reevaluate its trash needs. So when should Kansas City think about building a landfill? I answer that and more in my feature with @kcur. kcur.org/news/2023-05-18/whe…

Where will Kansas City's trash go? Locals don’t want a new landfill but we’re running out of space

Talk of a potential landfill in south Kansas City is making the city reevaluate its trash needs. While the city doesn't risk running out of space in the next few years, experts say it's not too soon...

Gov. Mike Parson said everything went well at the Super Bowl parade, "except for the one guy that fell out of a tree when I went by." He said Missouri would set aside $50 million for the World Cup.

"If anybody has a direct line to Patrick Mahomes, I do not appreciate the fact he shaked the governor of Kentucky's hand, and I have not," Kansas Gov. Laura Kelly said. World Cup is estimated to bring in $600M, according to studies.

Huge. After a house bill keeping new landfills further from cities resulted in two days of filibusters in the Senate, Mayor Lucas is stepping in with a proposed bill to ban landfill requests for a year. He wants any discussion of a landfill to be regional.
Mayor Q@QuintonLucasKC5 May 2023
I spoke today to Senate Leadership and the Kansas City delegation regarding a proposed landfill in our city. Any landfill discussion needs to be regional. As a result, I will put forward a bill next week to ban the approval of any requests to build a landfill within Kansas City

Yesterday's filibuster referenced by @CityOfRaymoreMO was led by Sen. Mary Elizabeth Coleman. She received a $2,400 campaign donation from Catalyst Group on 1/17 this year, according to her most recent campaign finance report 🧵⬇️

All 5 lobbyists in Catalyst Group lobby for a "KC Recycle & Waste Solutions," which shares the same address as landfill developer Jennifer Monheiser's Mark II Transfer Station. KC Recycle & Waste Solutions has 19 lobbyists.

Got to watch RG3 and Michael Vick play QB in a flag football game at Arrowhead with two teams of content creators. Tyreek Hill was on play-by-play. The stars were out for #NFLDraft week.
