A mass shooting on the 4th of July in Philadelphia with fireworks in the background a few hours after a mass shooting in a Jewish suburb by a Trump supporter really adds to the rising fascism vibes.

WOW @MayorWu look at the GREAT 👀 example you’re setting to your peers… now they dont have to answer or acknowledge constituents.. you people must not want to be re-elected! #bospoli #mapoli #scum #SCREWWU #WuTrainWreck
