@Wizegirl175185@rachbarnhart He’s a county employee like the rest except we get to actually pick him. The argument can be made we actually get to hold him accountable twice, through votes and through our reps in the county legislature. The who do you think you are is unnecessary.
@Wizegirl175185@rachbarnhart So yeah it kind of is their job bc we vote them in there to do stuff and ask questions and if they don’t then I am gonna vote them out.
@Joe_McCoy12@rachbarnhart She’s talking about the way journalists take what the sheriff says as gospel and don’t fact check him. I’m unclear on what you think a politician should be doing to intervene/interfere with the “free” press. Personally, I’d like the government to keep their hands out of it. You?
You know anti-bail reform people are 100% full of shit because if they thought public safety required imprisoning people accused (but not convicted) of crimes, they would oppose having bail at all. Instead, they want to imprison poor people accused of crimes and let rich ones out

Recently heard @harpersebishop on @squarepodbuff, and.. you are a treasure. You gave me a level of hope for the future of this city I haven’t felt since @Indiawaltonbflo (my one true Queen) won the primary. Brilliant and passionate. We’re lucky to have you.
We’re still in the process of analyzing the @BFLO_CC final map, but for now: This version changes Lovejoy to plurality white, taking the number of plurality Black districts from four down to three. So far, this is the ONLY plan to take us backwards in that regard. #BuffaloHonest
This is an example of the egregious,undemocratic, non-participatory, so-called leadership in Buffalo. Ignore both the experts and impacted. Unwilling to even consider anything besides what will uphold the status quo. It’s maddening.
