"My story is remarkable, but not uncommon," Walton told CBS Buffalo affiliate WIVB Wednesday morning. "And I just want to be the example for people like me that you can do whatever you set your mind to."
She ran on a progressive platform that included removing police from most mental health emergency calls, reallocating some police funding to other city services, creating the city's first comprehensive climate action plan and declaring Buffalo a sanctuary city for undocumented immigrants.

Sounds like the state of New York has just produced another AOC.

Of course I am no particular fan of Byron Brown. But, at least he was not one of these anti-police let-the-city-burn-down crazies. It may be odd to say that the best thing to say about a politician is that he is not an anarchist, but, these are the times in which we live. India Walton is no doubt from the Lori Lightfoot school of 'governance'. Disorder furthers the agenda.
Full disclosure: Byron Brown's nephew dates my daughter. Good kid.
