🧵 We need to be clear about something when we talk about gun violence: we already have laws against the gun that killed PO Rivera, specifically the high-capacity magazine. 1
We already have laws against the manner in which he possessed it, how he acquired it, and how it was transported from Baltimore to Harlem. 2

The incident at @tjmaxx in the 13th precinct IS the problem with @ManhattanDA’s policies.
- Man with 12 prior arrests goes to TJ Maxx at 620 6th Ave
- attempts to remove clothing
- store security attempts to stop him
- he brandishes orange shears & threatens security guards (1)
-security camera captures suspect as he walks out door
- police officer locates suspect nearby, interaction smooth, she recovers both the shears & stolen property
(Here’s where Bragg comes in…)
-last night, PO refused to sign the petit larceny affidavit she was given by ADA (2)

Why is Pete allowed to preach indoors, with an audience, no mask, at his job?
For further reference. Pete lives in a basement around the corner from me in the orange zone. He may be a superspreader, who knows.
If SNL was a restaurant in rock center, they’d be fined for this. If SNL was a movie or Broadway theater next door, they’d be closed.

It’s ironic that the mayor announced a poll watcher task force to guard against voter suppression from Trump or the proud boys or something today... considering he is the one who stands accused of actually suppressing #NYC votes in 2018. (1)
Recall in 2018, he hired a Chief Democracy Officer (whatever that meant)... same person who the press just learned was pushed and not replaced back in January. (2) gothamgazette.com/city/9845-de-b…

Want to hear how big of pieces of shit @NYGovCuomo@NYCMayor & the state liquor authority are?
Listen to this one
Joyce’s tavern had never been visited by the State Liquor Authority... not during Covid, not before, & had no violations
They’re are getting killed financially (1)
On Thurs, They let me have a little book signing- Outdoors of course, on a small patio. I advertised the event from the same twitter acnt I use to bash Cuomo & de Blasio on a daily basis. The bar also has flags that wld make it seem like it was right-leaning (2)

(1) So if we’re talking about Media & @Facebook bias...
After a GOP debate in 2015, @tedcruz made a comment about the govt monitoring phone records. There was a question of whether it was classified. NBC wrote this story... so far so good... nbcnews.com/politics/2016-…(2) The next day, NBC’s Meet the Press decided to promote the article through a sponsored post on Facebook... still so far so good.
