Is it true that this site is curating content for the purpose of favoring Janeese Lewis George? I’d be curious to know what posts that have been removed actually said.

Of course, it's true. Jeff systematically deletes posts that are critical of JLG, even ones that are demonstrably true and/or merely point to news coverage from the likes of the Washington Post. He doesnt provide any warning or reasoning other than he declares the deleted posts, writ large, to be "nonsense"

Can you seriously read this thread and think that I "systematically deletes posts that are critical of JLG"? There are lots of posts critical of her. Several with which I disagree. You seem to think that outright lies should be ignored. I disagree. Too bad for you, my opinion matters more.

The post that I deleted that had links to the Washington Post supported JLG.

Too bad for you, you have to worry about the nitty gritty of election law.

Have you filed the complaint yet? I'm getting tired of waiting. I'm planning on framing it.

You and Trump like to mock election law. You see where that's gotten him. Laws are laws, regardless of whether you choose to respect them.

I'm not mocking election law. I'm mocking you. If anyone is making a mockery of the law, it is you who is making baseless legal threats.

BTW, when you draft your complaint will you be sure to mention the multiple anti-JLG posts that you've made? Those should be reported as campaign contributions as well according to your logic.

You sound completely unfamiliar with the concept of an in-kind contribution.

This poster is a really upright concerned citizen who is concerned about manipulation of social media. Let's look at the poster's own history. For instance, this poster started this thread:

https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/1204112.page

It seems to be completely innocent, asking:

"Anyone have a readout from the education debate tonight?"

But, almost immediately the poster posted a response attacking Janeese Lewis George. The poster would eventually post over a third of the posts in the thread. That includes a post attacking JLG to which the poster replied giving a "+1". How pitiful do you have to be to "+1" your own post?

Moreover, the poster referred to the DC Council as the "City Council", suggesting a lack of familiarity with the District's institutions.

Given this poster's manipulation of social media by sock puppeting posts, the poster should probably complain to the FCC about themself.

Well that's funny. Is it the same.person who posts police union tweets?

Except it’s not funny because it’s not true. The person complaining about Steele’s in-kind contributions and the person posting about deleted posts are not the same people. Steele seems to think they are, and wants you to think so as well. But it’s two different people. You’d think that would be readily apparent to a website operator who could simply analyze the ISP address data and see they are different posters.

You are the one who is confused about this. You think that I am referring to you, but I am not. I was referring to the poster to whom I replied. That is a poster who said, "You sound completely unfamiliar with the concept of an in-kind contribution." That was not you.

But, since I have your attention, you have been threatening to complain about me to the FEC. Has it occurred to you what the "F" in "FEC" represents? In case not, let me help you out. The "F" is for "Federal". Here is the mission of the FEC:

"The Federal Election Commission (FEC) is the independent regulatory agency charged with administering and enforcing the federal campaign finance law. The FEC has jurisdiction over the financing of campaigns for the U.S. House, Senate, Presidency and the Vice Presidency."

Can you tell me where the DC Ward 4 Council election fits into that mission?

The hilarious part of this entire thing is that you and the sock puppet poster both think you are threatening me when you clearly don't have the slightest clue about what you are talking. Neither one of you is serious. I wonder what you think you are accomplishing with this behavior other than making yourself look foolish.

Washington Post endorses Lisa Gore for Ward 4:


“In Ward 4, incumbent Janeese Lewis George (D) ran, and won, on defunding the police in 2020 — and now is running away from that position. “It wasn’t the best verbiage used,” she said this past week. Shifting along with public sentiment, she voted in March for the Secure D.C. law but led efforts on the council to water down key provisions. Last summer, she was the only member to vote “no” on emergency legislation to address the crime wave and fought efforts to expand pretrial detention for adults accused of violent crimes…”

I almost always vote the opposite of the Washington Post editorial board. No exception here. Aren't they run by some suburban Republican?

Is that a joke? David Shipley is in charge. He used to run the New Republic which is extremely liberal

Really glad to see the Washington Post bringing facts. There’s been a lot of obfuscation from her and her supporters about her record. While she may not be saying the radical slogans she has not changed one bit on the substance of her policies.

Two of the three (felder and branch) people WaPo endorsed supported diversion over detention programs for youth. These endorsements are really all over the place. Seems like gore endorsement was more of a gift to the mayor

Link? There’s a new article out about the race but no endorsement that I can find.

Felder and Branch both worked for the mayor.

The theme of all of the endorsements are moderation over extremism.

Her entire candidacy was based on defunding the police. She ignored her constituents’ demands to do something, anything, about crime for four years. Now she says the issue was the “verbiage”? Ok.

That's the part that really mattered to you, but there's plenty more that I appreciate from her. But go on, keep repeating your lines until JLG gets reelected.

She's awful and Todd sucked too....Maybe I should just write in somebody's name. I thought she would at least have common sense.

What? Her signature issue has always been defunding the police. It was the whole reason she was even in office. It was the center of everything she did.

It’s bizarre that she now suddenly pretends otherwise. It would be like Grover Norquist suddenly saying he doesn’t care about taxes anymore.

Does she have kids? Sometimes I think that makes a difference.
