How my mother (who has limited mobility) is forced to board the “Select” B46 @NYCTBus today.
Curbside boarding & bus lanes are considered best practices, but the bus lanes aren’t active on weekends…and curbside boarding?…🤐🤷🏾♂️

This is infuriatingly cowardly. What’s the point of running on a rejection of this kind of racism if you’re just going to capitulate to it.

This fabricated police story might have become the official account of George Floyd’s death if concerned citizens had not intervened and recorded the police.

I’ve been trying to build secure bike parking stations in partnership with your administration for 3 years now?
It’s been a slog.
Btw, they’re free to the public, popular with communities and cost city nothing
If we can’t even do that, then wym by “bold & innovative?” – at Brooklyn, NY

I support impeaching President Trump.
I'm sure people have reasonable, practical questions about why we should do this when it's difficult to remove him from office any faster than January 20th.
I get that. But here's why I decided it must be done immediately.

Unity. I have an idea on how to get there. Every elected Republican needs to issue this statement:
Joseph Biden won a free and fair election. There was no widespread fraud. That is a lie.

The men who led armed insurrections against the Reconstruction governments in the South and terrorist attacks against black voters went on to become governors, senators, and congressmen.

Some people ask: Why would you impeach and convict a president who has only a few days left in office? The answer: Precedent. It must be made clear that no president, now or in the future, can lead an insurrection against the U.S. government.

!!!! Sen. Murray, No. 3 Senate Democrat: "Any Senator who stands up and supports the power of force over the power of democracy has broken their oath of office. Senators Hawley and Cruz should resign.”

Rep. Mondaire Jones (D-NY) tells me Congress needs “full investigation of the security breaches” and that if rioters “had been black, they would have been gunned down before they got inside the Capitol.”
Wants GOP objectors expelled: “They are co-conspirators in sedition.”

I am not surprised that today's mob attack happened. I am not surprised that the police let it happen. I am appalled that it is ending without mass arrests.

This is completely pathetic. There need to be consequences for people trying to destroy our democracy. Serious consequences.
Every Democrat who doesn’t understand this needs to be primaried.

you can begin the process tonight by voting on articles of impeachment and removing trump from office

Let's see more of this from newspapers.
