Omaha has sworn in John Ewing Jr. as the 1st African American Mayor in the city's history!

Finally ridding the city of an evil mayor who ruined the city.

I only wish Mayor Ewing the best. He has a tough job ahead.

I may no longer be a resident of Omaha, but I consider it to be my home town. Now only if the Democrats could win the state back? It would return to a great state!

I live here, and I'm surrounded by MAGAts.

But I'm certainly glad to see a POC as Omaha's mayor.
