Yes the city owns the shopping center, and the building the store is run out of. Sunfresh is a grocery chain, this one run by Community Builders KC. They have received government funds, like many nonprofit organizations. But it is incorrect to say the city owns the SunFresh.
Question, cause I think the wording in the article is a little confusing compared to what y’all are saying. Is the paragraph below stating the city owns the shopping center but not necessarily the businesses within it (I.e. the grocery store)?
The city contributed money to a non for profit that then ordered the merchandise. If I donate money to a charity I am not then the one making the purchases for that charity.
says it pays for the merch. on your source
This is something Elon Musk would tweet.
"Conspiracies" sometimes exist, and "conspiracy theories" can sometimes prove true, but "conspiracism" as a default epistemology -- your baseline filter for processing information -- just produces dumb and disordered thinking, which is why it's so wildly popular on the internet
Michael Tracey continues to humiliate himself for the sake of contrarianism.

MAGA: We did it, we defeated the establishment! Now, time to release the Epstein files! 😎 Trump:

You would never catch me dead bashing the homeless or the defund the police movement…ESPECIALLY not to a twat like Tucker.
She can’t have a convo with Tucker? If you guys were invited you would 1000% go…why is it bad that Ana went?

If you want to understand how fake the current political system is, take a minute to listen to Ana Kasparian and ask yourself how much you disagree with. (0:00) Why Americans Care So Much About the Jeffrey Epstein Case (7:18) The Growing Nuance of America’s Political Parties…
Incoming meltdown from the most annoying people you know.
The fertility rate in the U.S. dropped to an all-time low in 2024 with less than 1.6 kids per woman, new federal data shows. nbcnews.com/health/health-…
Last week you and 421 colleagues stood against the only Palestinian American in Congress to vote No on an amendment to cut funds to Israel.
I am sick of the tired platitude that for an ally like Israel we must not disagree publicly or in the media. Not when there is mass starvation. This is the time for every American to speak up publicly. PM Netanyahu, let in the food, medicine & aid. We must not be complicit.
Lies, Materialists slaps. Emma is a hater😂
Ok I loved Past Lives but I regret to inform everyone that Materialists is quite terrible :/
Unless something dramatically changes(it could), I think this might be the best case scenario for Dems in 2026.

Game recognize game. This was great shit from @AnaKasparian .
“I’m not going to let you filibuster, B*TCH” 🇦🇲 @AnaKasparian puts Zionist clown right in his place on Piers Morgan
Metal gets such a bad rep but every time I give it a chance I fuck with it heavy.
I don’t necessarily think woke is dead but I do think left-liberalism is. There is an important distinction here.
Nazi Germany is not my country
You’re insane if you think being proud of your country is a nazi sign
