He voted no for specific reasons. I am not going to say I agree with him, but I understood where he was coming from and if he can get what he was asking for, then it is better for the project and city.

It’s embarrassing. I expect my ward rep to show up to work.

Do you go into your office every day? Never teleworked a day in your life?

No. But I’m not in elected office. I didn’t ask anyone to put their trust in me.

+1. There’s a lot of us in Ward 3 that are skeptical of his judgment on policy issues. He does not seem concerned that blight continues to get worse under his leadership. He doesn’t seem up to this job.

That is entirely separate from OP’s and the PP’s complaint that Frumin voted remotely. He voted, despite being on vacation. He did his job. Complaining that he voted remotely is stupid.

Complaining about how he voted on this or any other legislation is another conversation.

I don’t really care that he voted remotely, though it’s a horrible look. I DO care that he voted in person for that ridiculous crime bill and to legalize street vending. He’s like a socialist Manchurian candidate that is doing the bidding of the socialists at the expense of his own Ward.

Please educate yourself as to what was actually in that bill: https://www.newyorker.com/news/annals-of-crime/the-war-on-cities

New Yorker magazine is the source you rely on for analysis of police reform legislation? Do you even hear yourself?

You didn’t read it, did you? For doing so my challenge the validity of various false assumptions that inform your worldview.

He did, just like millions of others who used technology to do it. Do you really think it matters that he did it from somewhere other than the Council chambers?

Yeah, but remote work is killing DC commercial estate which has led to downgrading our bonds and a new budget that will raise taxes on the rich and cut services for the poor. Matt’s like: “hold my beer.”

Nope. Working on vacation while maintaining an office in DC is not killing commercial RE.

How did he betray anyone’s trust? He interrupted his VACATION to do the job he was elected to do. That is above and beyond in my book.

Not always a Frumin fan, but he’s entitled to take some vacation and I appreciate his work during time away.

The Washington Post, like the paper that would know best, said literally TODAY that the crime bill was bad policy. I’m sorry your progressive dreams are crashing down all around you, but the rest of us demand safety.

He couldn’t have waited two days until the Council took a summer break? I mean, Bowsers main plea to Trump was to bring back the feds. Which he does. The RFK deal requires federal approval. Which he gives. So, one of the Council members decides it’s a great idea to vote against the deal while working remotely? Frumin has REALLY bad judgment.

Vacation? Not to be harsh, but he appears to have been retired for quite some time now (decades?). I mean he ran for elected office which by definition has an unpredictable schedule.
