We don’t know exactly what happened. But I think we can at least explain how all of these people - and police - converged in a mysterious house inquirer.com/news/a/raymond…

I feel like Philly mayors consistently underestimate the degree to which new initiatives are undercut by the city's chronic inability to provide basic services, like consistently maintaining rec centers, parks, streets etc etc
.@PhillyMayor Cherelle Parker tells @EmilyRPeck that the city hopes to launch its historic mortgage program “before the end of 2026.”
“Imagine getting a mortgage, a 30-year commitment, with no PMI,” Parker said, and accessible “with less-than-perfect credit.” #AxiosLive

NEW: Scott Presler allowed multiple out of state GOP operatives to use his home in Pennsylvania to vote in the '24 election. Those operatives then left the state. Election lawyers say this could be in violation of PA voting laws.

Closed Skillz establishments have new signs.
For the vast majority of people walking past this sign, how many want these establishments to exist? This has to be counterproductive targeting (or maybe even a Shapiro ad).
