I'm embarrassed to be an American right now. I hate knowing that the rest of the world thinks Americans are pieces of shit. I do not stand with this administration. These horrific, nazi ghouls do not represent me or what I think America should be. I stand with Zelensky and the people of Ukraine. 🇺🇦

NY City Council speaker Adrienne Adams:
"With the resignation of deputy mayors, it has become clear that Mayor Adams has now lost the confidence and trust of his own staff, his colleagues in government, and New Yorkers. He now must prioritize New York City and New Yorkers, step aside and resign."

The resignations from New York City’s government are eviscerating the DOJ‘s rationale for dismissing the criminal case against Adams.

An amazing resignation letter to Bove from an AUSA who worked on the Adams case.
Money quote: “I expect you will eventually find someone who is enough of a fool, or enough of a coward, to file your motion. But it was never going to be me.”
