Excited for the Kansas City Current season ahead. I joined star defender Elizabeth Ball and hundreds of others for a season kickoff luncheon at Union Station. #KCBaby.
Well, anybody got some good meeting spots for a couple of days?
Not great.
Stay safe everyone and catch updates from U.S. National Weather Service Kansas City and your local news!
“We watched Kansas pursue a nearly identical experiment a decade ago and the result was years of fiscal crisis and painful cuts to schools and core services,” Lucas said. “Missouri should not repeat that mistake.”
Kansas City is the place where great stories get told.
Excited to welcome the Full Tilt Film Festival to KC this August, bringing athletes, filmmakers, and the future of sports media right here to our city. Another great project from Kansas City’s award winning film office.
Many more to come! And, with our Tree Preservation Ordinance, we are planting more in new developments, including 600 new trees coming in as part of a new subdivision near Line Creek.
Cleaner air, less flooding, and a better community for all!
KCMO ❤️ Trees!
Since 2022, we’ve planted over 13,000 trees, which over 20 years will lead to over:
🌳8.5 million gallons of stormwater avoided
🌳6.5 million pounds of carbon sequestered
🌳43,200 pounds of air pollutants absorbed
It’s gonna be a great Kansas City Royals season in the town.
Loved seeing the team for one day at Spring Training. Excited for more ahead!
It was an honor to spend last evening with the Kansas Democratic Party, Governor Laura Kelly, and so many from throughout the Sunflower State supporting the best in Kansas and American values.
We share names; share a region; yes, we share teams, but most importantly, we share values—like fully funding public schools, expanding healthcare in rural and urban America, making daily life affordable, and standing up for the rights of all.
Topeka tonight!

¡Estamos preparando por Argentina! Thank you to Los Hornos Kansas City for welcoming me to their Northland restaurant on my KC2026 World Cup cuisine and culture tour through Kansas City. I’m still full… Come visit! I’ll be back throughout the summer and well before. 🇦🇷
Weddings? Yes, we do weddings at City Hall.
And, we even have some pretty decent officiants in the building.
Contact us for a wedding, school visit, a tour to the rooftop, or special events. We love welcoming you to your historic City Hall!
His impact is remembered by the students then and all he touched during a lifetime of service.
This morning, mourners in Chicago celebrated the life and legacy of the Rev. Jesse Jackson.
This morning, my mother let me know that Rev. Jackson visited her high school, Kansas City Public Schools Southeast High School in 1977.
Kristi Noem’s termination is welcome and overdue news. She should next face prosecution for mass violations of constitutional and human rights.
Investing in our kids is THE way we build a better, safer, and healthier Kansas City long term. Proud to work with our friends at Mattie Rhodes Center and KCPS to secure funds for more counselors and social workers for families in our community.
I always love a good school visit! Started my day visiting with Kerav, the chair of Kansas City’s Futures Commission, and his classmates at Pembroke Hill. I received some wonderful questions from our young people.
Made it out to the opening set for the Big 12 Conference Women’s Tournament. Great game tonight with Arizona and Arizona State.
Come on down to T-Mobile Center now through Sunday. I got the whole family out tonight.
They tell me authenticity is where it’s at…
So, I’m excited for the Big 12 women’s and men’s tournaments starting this week and next, respectively, AND I can’t ball.
See y’all Downtown this week and next.
Predictably, state control has little to do with making the people of St. Louis safer (as crime was trending down already under local control), but a lot to do with taking authority, budget control, and accountability from the people
I see this story everyday in Kansas City. Keep working to change.
I look forward to more discussion with industry, including how similar laws in places like Washington, DC have not brought an end to their industry, but generations more of status quo are unacceptable for Kansas City neighborhoods, our residents, and our city.
Hearing at 10:30
I grew up in Kansas City neighborhoods where we saw the abundance of low-cost, single packaged beverages leading to many of the crime, trash, and nuisance problems that made folks leave—and more liquor sellers than any neighborhood should have to handle. 30 to 40 years later and the problem is worse
Today, Council takes up our proposal limiting sales of single serve liquor and malt beverages in neighborhoods where for years we have received complaints about trash, nuisance activity, and crime. Our proposal comes out of neighborhoods impacted and is for neighborhoods impacted.
Relevant each day, as one branch gives up all authority—and all constitutional accountability in the process.
Who has ever said they like regime change wars? Even those who start them claim they’re objectionable.
My suggestion is more a refutation to what the administration will likely claim, as they did in Venezuela, that successes largely in air war mean that they’ve “won,” and that we need not worry about long term peace. I think the US likely will win the air war. Disaster still likely after.
Same.
The Administration claim they “won” in Venezuela a few weeks ago. And the administration will claim the same here.
