@DMVBlackLives Great. Now, what about the armed special police officer who was working in my building, DOES NOT know me, and decided it was cool to pepperspray me in the lobby after I asked what time security comes at night? I haven't heard a damn thing since. Most of us don't get justice ever.
Going on about two weeks no work and this is the best I’ve felt in years. I’ve gotten so much done in the house, started on two projects, and been reading. I feel so happy and at peace.
@WashInformer Council passes a law, approved without Bowser's signature. The Executive (mayor & @dcpublicschools) ignores the law for two years. When asked why her administration is not following the law, she claims it infringes on her duties as mayor. When is a law not a law? @ChmnMendelson
Andrea James, founder and executive director of .@thecouncilus, sends a clear message to President Biden: "Clemency NOW. End the incarceration of women and girls!" #FREEHERNOW
@AlexKomaWCP Excellent reporting! FACT: "Muiel Bowser is undeniably loyal to her friends." "Bowser tried to sweep $2 million out of the opioid settlement fund to cover budget gaps." DC demographic w/ highest opioid-related deaths:Black men 50y/o+ . @MayorBowser ain't prioritizing Black men!
Worth flagging this clarification that didn't make the @wusa9 headline: the Mayor's budget does increase taxes on low-income families by cutting the Earned Income Tax Credit and increasing sales taxes.
“I sent the Council a budget that does not include income tax increases or residential property tax increases. I will not support a budget that amps up those taxes for increased spending on programs that don't increase our growth in revenues.”
DC has the Hilltop which is an amazing resource to look at long history of Black leftism in DC. And it is the Hilltop, the newspaper of Black elite college students & their concerns so on some level completely inaccurate and only giving a shadow of glimpse of what happening.

I see a lot of folks being targeted with this “police reform is some white progressive dream” message, which ignores the fact that police won’t stop doing a racism. Oppressing Black folks is a founding principle of our criminal justice system. That has never changed
