Ohio could raise a billion dollars by passing a modest Wealth Proceeds Tax.

Let's finally get this done. Mayor Bibb: "If you look ahead, the cities that are going to win, not just in Cleveland but around the world, are the cities that prioritize public access, public space and their waterfronts." www.cleveland.com/news/2026/01...

Imagine defending a lease this bad, or the people who negotiated it.

Yet, Ohio leaders found $600 million to build a replacement NFL stadium for the Haslams, who have a net worth approaching $9 billion.

Neoliberalism didn’t win an intellectual argument — it won power. In an interview with Jacobin, Vivek Chibber unpacks how employers and political elites in the 1970s and ’80s turned economic turmoil into an opportunity to reshape society on their terms.

Love these Cleveland prototypes of affordable, energy-efficient homes constructed of factory-made wall panels. Cleveland turns to solar power in push for more affordable housing signalcleveland.org/lmm-solar-po...

An email about a subscription price increase from @cleveland.com today included the following note: "This is to inform you that your price was set by an algorithm using your personal data." 😱

Need more of this in Cleveland. Tanmay Shah’s win for City Council shows how grassroots mobilization can elect progressives.

Tanmay Shah wins in Cleveland City Council Ward 12, besting incumbent Danny Kelly by 9 votes. There will be a recount Dec. 1, but it would be unlikely that it changes the results. signalcleveland.org/cleveland-ci...

Really excellent speaker series from John Carroll University on what it means to be human in a world of catastrophic change: visit.jcu.edu/livable-future

Cleveland is pretty clearly better off without the Browns stadium. Good story in today's Plain Dealer.

Let's go! The City of Cleveland - home to a public power utility - is one of the first in the nation i've heard of so far banning shutoffs during this federal shutdown crisis. Public power can lead the nation in showing what democratic institutions can do to make our lives better.

Thanks to @justinmbibb.bsky.social for insisting that, in a city with one of the highest poverty rates in the nation, billionaire sports team owners should pay for the facilities that primarily benefit their businesses. www.cleveland.com/news/2025/11...

This is one of the best, most comprehensive news articles about the Ohio earthworks I've ever seen. Please give it a read. There's so much great knowledge in here; stuff every Ohioan should take pride in about our home state and the astonishing history here we ought to revere.

It is absolutely ridiculous to ask state taxpayers to fund this. Yet, the clowns in charge will probably approve it anyway.
