Anybody else in Uptown see that stupid billboard?

It's facing south on Hennepin just north of Franklin. It says something like "How can we save this country with fake news and a biased media?"

It says it was put there by Colonial Apartments.

Now Blankenship is up for the job. Pedophiles aren't sinking low enough? Now we have to accept a jailbird who killed his own employees?

If you get paid a hundred bucks to kill someone, you'll probably never see daylight again. If you kill two dozen people to save money in your business, you get to run for Senate.

MAGA, fuckers.

in uptown will just generate laughs.

They should put it on 35W where, after Obama won, they had a billboard of Junior waving with his usual smirk "asking" miss me yet?

There have been other signs by that apartment group in Uptown. They usually get graffitied. Somebody just doesn't like the fact that Uptown is bluer than blue.

or are they just making it seem like the billboard is funded by regular people and neighbors? When it's really being funded by some Koch Brothers-funded greedbanger organization.
