If the DC Council Chair, Kwame Brown, wasn't embroiled in his own scandal(s), would CM Barry still chair the Committee on Aging and Community Affairs given all of CM Barry’s intolerant statements? An “intolerant” should not have oversight over these agencies (among others):
Commission on Human Rights
Office of Human Rights
Commission on Latino Community Development
Office of Latino Affairs
Commission for Women
Office on African Affairs
Office of Asian and Pacific Islander Affairs
Office of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual and Transgender Affairs
Kwame should take CM Barry's committee and set up an Econ Dev Committee while he's at it.
Tom Sherwood, the "resident analyst", didn't know that Dan Bongino had won the Maryland Republican Primary for the US Senate race or even that there had been a primary? Really? Mr. Sherwood was either clueless or rude, but one thing he was not was nonpartisan.
