People are mad because I refused to give Biden credit for his empty platitudes. I don't care. Obama got elected and got away with everything because he was eloquent and said things that sounded good even though he did the opposite.

I'm tired of the weight given to superficiality

You cannot possibly promote the idea that America is a fundamentally racist country while ignoring the violence and destruction that is happening as a result of that falsehood as well as the extreme radicalism taking over your own party and also believe "we need to come together"
These things are diametrically opposed. It is like beating your wife and everyone knows you beat your wife and then you come out and start talking about how we need to do something about domestic violence. The sentiment is correct. But you, yourself, are a hypocritical liar.
Paying lip service to something that needs to happen while actively working against it happening is why I am not applauding him. He is acting like a snake. Trying to say "the right things" so we don't see what he's actually doing.

So be mad if you want. I award him no points.

We’ve been getting calls and outreach from Queens residents all day about this.

The community’s response? Outrage.


Amazon is a billion-dollar company. The idea that it will receive hundreds of millions of dollars in tax breaks at a time when our subway is crumbling and our communities need MORE investment, not less, is extremely concerning to residents here.

When we talk about bringing jobs to the community, we need to dig deep:
- Has the company promised to hire in the existing community?
- What’s the quality of jobs + how many are promised? Are these jobs low-wage or high wage? Are there benefits? Can people collectively bargain?

Displacement is not community development. Investing in luxury condos is not the same thing as investing in people and families.

Shuffling working class people out of a community does not improve their quality of life.

We need to focus on good healthcare, living wages, affordable rent. Corporations that offer none of those things should be met w/ skepticism.

It’s possible to establish economic partnerships w/ real opportunities for working families, instead of a race-to-the-bottom competition.
