This is “manifestly illegal.” There was no immediate threat to anyone’s safety. The use of lethal force is illegal. It’s murder. Considered manifestly illegal because a 5th grader would understand it’s illegal. By far, it’s the most illegal thing this Administration has done.

Today’s news confirms it: Cuomo is Trump’s choice for Mayor. The White House is considering jobs for Adams and Sliwa to clear the field. New Yorkers are sick of corrupt politics and backroom deals. No matter who’s running, we will deliver a better future on November 4.

The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024. Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay. The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year. Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M See the problem?

There’s a reason the White House is pushing hard against this discharge petition. I’m signing so that the truth comes out. The survivors of Epstein’s abuse—and the American people—deserve answers.

Timeline cleanse 😁 I live on 8 acres in a pocket of more sparsely developed, unincorporated county land surrounded by city. There's a family of deer that have used this land and our neighborhood as a safe island. So most days I get a visit from the neighbors just outside my office window.

The overall takeaway from the Epstein survivors’ press conference is that they are united and are no longer going to allow rich and powerful men to victimize, silence and intimidate them. Including the ones in Congress and the perp in the Oval Office.

The oldest fossil evidence shows that humans originated in Africa about 200,000 years ago and would have had dark pigmented skin to protect them from intense UV rays. So if you're a believer in "God," and believe man was created in his image... then it stands to reason that God is a Black man.
