Astoria used to be a very nice family-friendly, immigrant neighborhood. What happened?
Any word from Costa and his podium? Did AOC tweet about income inequality justifying this crime yet?
She wasn’t mentioned in this article…
Vote Caban and let this kinda crap fester.
Ok, I will. Thanks!
Thanks, Michelle…what is Tiffany Caban up for today? I’d be happy to support her again if you could let me know how to vote for her on my way home tonight.
You got to be kidding right ??
