This language of cesspool and war zones is not accurate or helpful. Maybe the author should talk to someone that has actually been in a war zone to hear what that actually is. I’m sure it brings clicks and followers though.
DC is a crime cesspool thanks to certain policy makers and their criminal loving anti-police policies. Now it’s like living in a real-life episode of Law & Order: Capitol Edition.
So happy to c someone with so much respect 4 wt he has accomplished in Ward 5 like
@CM_McDuffie
@kenyanmcduffie
endorse such a great candidate like
@FaithForWard5DC
that will continue 2 move forward from where he is leaving off. I have Faith for the future!
I’m honored to have the support of CM McDuffie. He’s one of the people who has paid attention to and supported the work I’ve done in the ward and behind the scenes. I am ready to take the baton and forge ahead on the next great chapter for our

Today marks my first 100 days as your Councilmember. It is an honor and a privilege to be your advocate.
Here's my first 100 days in 60 seconds.
The highlights:
📍6 pieces of legislation
📍28 performance oversight hearings
📍Countless community conversations
@wamu885
I am confused as to how you have a mayoral debate without all of the mayoral candidates? Seems like it always boils down to money and fundraising versus the actual candidates? Please put out a statement

Yesterday at 11am this innocent worker in front of my house almost died. A bullet came through his back window & missed his head by inches. That's an elementary school + playground....I walk to regularly with kids. What is your answer to stopping this

The truth is you don’t need to respond to those types of campaigns. You don’t need to nor are you going to be able to satisfy their bad intentions.
More violence and loss in

It’s time to do something different.

Christina is out working hard talking and listening to earn the support of thousands of District residents. I strongly encourage the residents of DC to support Ms. Christina Henderson by contributing, volunteering and voting for her in November.
Another shooting tonight on Good Hope Road. We have “emergency” legislation to change the name of the road but no “emergency” legislation to stop the killings/murders on the road. Something seems backwards. Can we do both, change the name & stop the killings? 2 much to ask?

Christina Henderson's victory in a crowded D.C. Council race shifts the body to majority Black for the first time since 2013 and majority female for the first time in two decades.
How she pulled it off, w/

voted in with less than 10% of the city voters. This is why I am stepping out of this race. I feel that it is our responsibility as candidates to do what is in the best interest of the voters and not of ourselves. I would ask that all candidates examine their paths forward and

How great would things be if we just stepped out on the ledge and voted for something besides the status quo. You know, the one people in the back of their minds know they should vote for.

The choices facing our city are not easy, we need a proven leader that has been able to work with all residents, not someone who continues to be evasive with facts + makes unrealistic promises that we cannot afford to fulfill. Proud to endorse

Commissioner Rosenberg sounds good. Congratulations to all of the newly ANC’s and other officials. We have been chosen to represent the people. It’s time to raise the standard of excellence. A big kudos to my 8F colleagues.

recognize whether or not continuing their candidacy is in the best interest of the voters or of themselves. Additionally, as a taxpayer, I would ask that public finance candidates look at how they are continuing to collect tax monies to fund their campaigns and ask themselves is
"And now having seen all the evidence and having heard on the evidence, you know the truth, and the truth of the matter is that the reason George Floyd is dead is because Mr. Chauvin's heart was too small,"
have such a diverse group of candidates with immigrants to many black and brown candidates, we are not doing any favors to the voters of DC, in which we are supposed to be serving, with so many candidates. It is unfortunate that we could have an at large city council member

The problem with ur argument Ed is u have been arguing to use these funds long before the current pandemic. Agree, the budget is a moral doc. What will u do to make sure we have reserves n case of future pandemic & what will you do to support all residents that didn't vote 4 u?
We're one step closer to more easily removing abandoned cars from our neighborhoods! The Transportation Committee just marked up my legislation streamlining the removal of abandoned vehicles. I'm also grateful that

There is “often pain behind people’s smiles”. That has been shown to be so true over and over. So important to check in on our friends and loved ones regularly.

for sharing and for the education. As I have said in a previous posts and is still very applicable. " Let’s be very, VERY clear on this. The wheels of justice have been moving slowly for the black community for hundreds of years.
The amount of assumptions & sarcasm about other people on Twitter is amazing 2 me. Twitter is truly not the real world. When will ppl actually talk 2 each other in person again w/out max characters? Ppl would b amazed at what they learn, minus those who already know everything.
Unfortunately, I find the arrogance of this statement common from those that c themselves above everyone else in knowledge. As a previous professor, I try to continue my pat of knowledge & learning & have found the older I get the less I know. A lesson some still need to learn.
Much excitement at the groundbreaking of the new Cedar Hill Regional Medical Center in Ward 8.
We currently don’t have a hospital east of N. Capitol St that has labor & delivery services. That will change with the opening of Cedar Hill.

Can’t speak to or for “everyone”, but can say many of the neighbors/constituents are asking. Is there a reason why we are keeping it via zoom as many of the other ANC’s have gone back to in person? 👁
