The world is indifferent to anti-Semitism & Jewish persecution; very sad when Jews die; & outraged when Jews defend themselves. So it is & so it has always been.

@AnnabellSciorra Browder was given a $3,000 bail. This is important. To his family $3,000 was like $10 million. To Weinstein, 1 mil is like $0. In essence, the bail set for a kid accused of stealing a backpack was $10 mil & the alleged predatory sex offender was essentially released with no bail.

We know @SenatorHamilton showed his true colors by caucusing with Senators Klein and Flanagan instead of @Andreascousins , who would have been the first black female #senate leader. He is now smearing @Vote_Richardson . Together, we’ll vote him out on September 13!

Why is the Brooklyn Democratic Party using its official social media account to promote a challenge to one of its Executive Committee Members? Its a total misuse of Party resources. I love @Pinnyringel like a brother, but @DavidSchwartz48 is the best person for the job.

I can't believe I let my staff talk me into this. My first (and likely last) TikTok video. So, here's a song to get to know about me.

1 of the reasons I'm running for City Council is when no one in the room where decisions are made has to think about their own childcare, we end up with a City that gives 4 days notice before closing restaurants, but only 4 hours before closing schools.

To put a finer point on it, @DavidSchwartz48 is being punished because he fought for the best interests of his community instead of having it dictated to him by a party leadership who had only their own interests in mind. This is an attempt to take power away from the community.

@RutiRegan @PJLibrary @RazManda @temasmith Its funny because where I live there are 3 synagogues in a 15 block radius. Until a retirement last year, all 3 were led by a married, gay, and female Rabbi. One day, one of my kids will come home and say, “daddy, did you know men can be Rabbis too.” I love Brooklyn.

If you got a letter purportedly from Lori Citron Knipel, @Bobby4Brooklyn & me asking you to give a proxy to Frank Seddio, it wasn’t sent or approved by us. For future reference, you can tell by checking if “I” repeatedly spelled my own name wrong. Also, Lori doesn’t hyphenate.

Update on #CCMeeting2020 . We are following the same process as on 12/16. @bkdems comes up with some convoluted argument & plot. It gets ripped apart within minutes. They disappear for the next several hours to plot their next losing ploy. We've been "at ease" for almost 3 hrs.

@ElizabAdams @NYDailyNews @em4assembly The article itself exposes how ridiculous it is. It calls her writing “sophmoric.” In fact, she was a freshman. Imagine being a 47-year incumbent whose family held the seat for a century & this is what you think you have to resort to win.

@elizashapiro This is semantics. Schools are "open" in the sense that the doors are not locked & some students are getting full-time or part-time in person learning or zoom in a room. The better terminology is "schools are open for full-time in-person learning" or "schools are fully open."

Still in November 2021, @AMBichotte takes her praise of @JustinBrannan ever further. She finishes off her glowing review of Councilmember Brannan by saying, "we need more people like Justin!" Again, this was mere months after the widely publicized Bistreich settlement.

If I understand this correctly, @sabrinalucia , Comms Dir. for @AMBichotte , is attacking my awesome colleague @shaquanaforbk because Shaquana both attending a service event on MLK, Jr. Day & then had the audacity to call out @IAMLORISUE 's racism. Anyone else see a problem here?

Instead of tweeting about word-choice, go talk to your dry cleaner. People who work remotely don't need to wear business clothes, so they don't need anything dry cleaned. If they don't need anything dry cleaned, the dry cleaner can't pay his rent. Can't support his family. 4/

His statement about lower-wage workers lacking skills to sit in a corner office was cringe-worthy, but you know what he was trying to say. Not everybody can work remotely & the downstream impacts of remote work is suffered by lower-wage workers. Again, he's not wrong. 2/
