@vivekshraya Hardcore agree. Been dark days the last two months. Friends scooped me. I spoke up online too. We need to give this attention as this continues
I wonder if Donald, Ivanka, Jared, Don Jr., Eric, and all the complicit insiders go to sleep at night worrying about being prosecuted and imprisoned. I hope so.
@BuiltJustice Appalling and yet predictable. The visible discomfort and disinterest of city leadership in meaningfully addressing the concerns of Black residents and Black staff was on full display and recorded. Integrity, transparency, accountability?
A Thought:

@Ayaan_Ismaciil This whole situation has been a source of never-ending irritation and annoyance for me. If you don't have verbal control over your companion, keep it the fuck away form me. And even then... keep it the fuck away
