NEW YORK NIGHTS

Now that Karma has finally woken up, leading to this seismic Democratic “blue wave”, we’d like to talk about priorities. Of course Democrats need to use their new majorities to focus on affordability issues and on ending the Iran war. At the same time, we urge them to move seriously and relentlessly towards providing justice for those who so blithely acted as if they were above our laws. The blatant corruption displayed by the inhabitants of Trump’s world as they scoffed at America’s constitution sent us the message that they thought we were all “suckers and losers”. Where are the full Epstein files? What about that Emoluments Clause? We’re not talking about emulating Trump’s “revenge politics” here, we’re talking about a concept that seemed almost extinct under the Republicans…accountability for our actions!
