This is the woman who says that if the ATVs keeping your children awake the whole night and endangering cars and pedestrians are a problem, you should sound insulate your flats and houses.
She may be onto something if you use bulletproof insulation to protect yourself from the nightly gunfire too The modern day Marie Antoinette. Let them sound insulate |

WASHINGTON - Aurora Market in Northwest D.C.'s Parkview neighborhood has only been in business a little more than a year, but it has easily become a cornerstone of the area.
Owner Pablo Ortiz spent more than a decade serving with the Army Special Operations and says he never wanted to get involved with politics, but now he's leading an effort to recall Ward 1 Councilmember Brianne Nadeau. Ortiz says he sought help from Nadeau seven different times in the last year, including for the store's crime issue. He says he reached out to her office via email and telephone, but never got a response until he went on social media earlier this month. "If you have the privilege to be in a position to represent a community, take that seriously. Listen to what the people are asking for support," Ortiz said. He says he got an email from Nadeau after his posts online, but unfortunately, she got both his wife's name and the name of his store wrong. "It culminated really in her correspondence with us," Ortiz recalled. "There was no accountability or acknowledgment of any fault or oversight by her office. In fact, she went as far as to discredit me and my integrity." RELATED: Aurora Market in Northwest DC 'defends' against repeat harassment He says Nadeau later stopped into the store during their lunch rush, the first time he had met her, and that solidified his resolve to start planning for a recall. "We're essentially organizing within these next 11 months to ensure that we are ready to submit the recall request once she has hit the one-year mark of her service," Ortiz said. Pablo Ortiz, owner of Aurora Market He says the response from the community has been strong. "We've received literally dozens of in-person people coming in; some are customers, some are new to Aurora Market, and it's very clear that this is a systematic problem," he said. he's heard stories from others in Ward 1 who have had a hard time getting a response from Naduea. Nadeau's spokesperson said: "Councilmember Nadeau will continue to invite feedback from her constituents as she does at monthly office hours, through her newsletter and through other methods, and she welcomes anyone with concerns to reach out to her."

"I absolutely support Brianne Nadeau being recalled I have been in the neighborhood since 2005 and a homeowner on the block since 2009, and I can say she is not my representative in the sense that I don't feel heard or seen," Thompson said. Aurora Market dealing with harassment Aurora Market's owner is trying to protect his business while still promoting community. FOX 5's Adrienne DiPiazza reports from Northwest with the story. Thompson says aside from the issues at Aurora Market, she believes the city council member representing Ward 1 should be more focused on crime and job creation. In D.C., recalls cannot be submitted until a person has been in office for one year. They must be signed by at least 10% of registered voters in the ward. "A lot of volunteers who want to go out and get signatures when that time comes … Truly, the response has been much more than I could imagine," Ortiz said. |

| No shock that Nadeau only showed up at the sandwich shop during the lunch hour. That’s the only time she “serves” her food purveyor constituents - when it’s time to free graze. Good for them for not feeding her for free like many businesses say they had to do. |

| Can this spin off into a recall of Charles Allen, too? |

She’ll likely resign. She can’t take pressure.
The bigger question is how did she ever get elected in the first place? |

Today’s WaPo
The mayor and D.C. Council members go about their business within a well-guarded building and traverse the city in cars with official license plates that tell all comers who they are and why they should be left the hell alone. Do they know — do they care to know? — that Friday morning’s robbery spree comes with great costs? It’s more than a lost wallet, purse or coat. Those street robberies in broad daylight strike a palpable fear. It’s the kind of fear that makes a person — women and men of all ages — think twice before going out of the house. Which is the safest bus stop? What’s the best time to go to the supermarket or use an ATM? Where should I fill my tank? What do I do if …? Where should I run if …? What, oh what, can I say if …? How I would love to see one of our progressive council members come before just one day’s victims and tell them that the young suspects who violently robbed them should, if caught, be handled with great care because research on the brain has shown that people under 25 lack a fully developed prefrontal cortex needed for impulse control and a mature understanding of the consequences of their actions. Or so say justice reform advocates who argue for keeping young robbers out of secure detention at all costs. That philosophy carries the day in today’s D.C. Council. There is no relation between what’s being propounded in council chambers and what’s going down in the streets. Better to pay attention to the D.C. police alerts than what the council has to say. At least those alerts may help keep you alive. |
