My favorite Jackie Reyes lore was when DC residents showed up at a parade to protest the Mayor’s cooperation with ICE, she had her staff photoshop out the protest signs and post the photos with her agency’s logo. It’d be easier to just stop helping ICE, but here we (still) are.
🚨 It’s official! 🚨 Jackie Reyes Yanes is running for Ward 1 DC Council! A trailblazing Salvadoran immigrant, single mother, and lifelong advocate, Jackie has spent over two decades fighting for equity, inclusion, and opportunity in our city.

It looks like there won’t be a recall vote against @BrianneKNadeau in Ward 1. Proponents of the recall failed to submit any signatures from Ward 1 voters by today’s deadline; they had six months to collect signatures from 5% of voters to force a recall vote.

On January 6, Trump summoned a violent mob and dispatched them to the US Capitol. Trump never offered DC 10,000 troops, and the President — not the DC Mayor — controls the DC National Guard. Unlike Trump, we immediately offered the DC Metropolitan Police Department to support

Owned. Thanks for the cheap entertainment at least @recallallen ! @RecallNadeau is headed to the same dumpster. #norecall
The Recall Allen committee says it came up well short of its goal for petition signatures to trigger a special election. They’re asking for it to be on the ballot anyway (good luck with that). So after tens of thousands in spending, this efforts ends with a whimper.

It's been ~2 weeks with ZERO local media coverage of this damning report. 2,262 declined, dropped or pled down gun cases over the last 2 years. Record-high leniency in gun possession plea bargains. When people find out they're mad! But local media isn't covering the data. (1/

Attention @DCAttorneyGen
