Incredibly disappointed in @Delta’s last-minute contribution to Lindsay Graham’s Senate campaign. My family and I are longtime customers and Skymiles members, but this is really gross.

I had to walk out on the debate but before I did, I donated at joebiden.com. Because if I can’t handle another minute of this BS, I sure as hell can’t handle another 4 years. Let’s make the story of this debate how we blew it outta the water at every level. Donate!

Tonight @MarkLevineNYC voted yes on the sham 2020/2021 city budget that did not go far enough to #DefundNYPD. He has lost my vote for Manhattan Borough President.

As we near the final budget vote, it has become clear that this budget ignores some of the most critical elements of reducing NYPD funding and redefining public safety. Unless it meets those needs, I will use my Charter authority to prevent the budget from being executed. More:

NYC Council is voting on the budget TOMORROW. The deal on the table falsely claims to cut $1B from the NYPD but it’s a sham. We need a true divestment of $1B this year from the NYPD and a… instagram.com/p/CCCYXprHfCaR…
.@NYCCouncil members VOTE NO TO THIS NEW PROPOSED BUDGET. Go back to the drawing board. Funny math, budget musical chairs & police union antics is not what NYers are protesting for, IT IS NOT #NYCBudgetJustice! #DefundNYPD 👇🏾

.@NYCMayor & @NYCSpeakerCoJo are using funny math & budget tricks to mislead NYers into thinking that they plan to meet our demands to #DefundNYPD by at least $1B. This is not #NYCBudgetJustice. WE WONT ACCEPT IT. Read our full statement: bit.ly/2ZlXLMg

During #COVID19 @NYCMayor & @NYCSpeakerCoJo are playing budget tricks to protect NYPD's budget instead of our social safety net & programs. NYers will accept nothing less than a true $1B NYPD cut & true reinvestment into communities. Read our statement: bit.ly/2ZlXLMg

NYCMesh members created a public archive of NYC’s surveillance footage to promote accountability of the #NYPD: nycmesh.net/blog/nyc-surveil… Holding the police accountable requires witnessing, recording and sharing footage of their actions. #nycprotests #BLM THREAD - 1/3

I just witnessed some incredibly extreme excessive force from @NYPDnews used on what appeared to be completely non-violent protest in Hell's Kitchen. Not a hint of looting. They police including supervisors started screaming #MayorsCurfew
