On Memorial Day weekend of 2022,  The Detroit News  broke the story that indicted Councilman AndrĂ© Spivey had told Mayor Duggan who was wearing the FBI wire around city hall, and that Duggan started going around warning others: https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/local/detroit-city/2022/05/31/feds-link-duggan-outing-informant-behind-scenes-bribery-scandal If you do not have a Detroit News subscription, here is the Deadline Detroit version, with no paywall: https://www.deadlinedetroit.com/articles/30630/detroit_mayor_duggan_reportedly_leaked_fbi_snitch_s_identity_in_towing_bribes_investigation Quotes from the Detroit News :  Detroit — Federal agents have linked Mayor Mike Duggan to a chain of events that outed a confidential FBI informant and alerted a target of an ongoing investigation of bribery, extortion and fraud at City Hall, The Detroit News has learned.  Federal court records and interviews provide a look at Duggan's conduct behind the scenes of a f...

Duggan has Staffers Patrolling Facebook for Negative Posts About Him

It would seem that the mayor's staffers, including his  official spokesman John Roach , are going around on Facebook looking for negative posts about Duggan to "debunk," especially on the Coalition for Property Tax Justice page, which is dedicated to calling him out for not repaying residents affected by the $600M overtaxation:  Is this what we pay them to do, with our tax dollars? Is the mayor's ego really that fragile? Is he really that petty? This is his Trumpian side coming out again...he needs to manipulate the media narrative about his failings. I double-checked, and sure enough it was that John Roach: As surreal as this appears, you can be assured that Duggan's people are also monitoring this website as well.

Nevermind that Adams also worked under other mayors besides Kwame. I made some original content for once! Is refusing to debate going to be the new fad among politicians in the Post-Trump Era? Refusing to debate is one step closer to refusing to have an election. I mean what's the point of all that hassle anyway...
