I ♥️ New York (my 1,500th post)

As a native New Yorker, I am so proud of my home state, especially now. (I moved to NC 20 years ago, but I spent over 40 years in NYC where I was born and raised.)

I heard the indictment news at 5:30, and like everyone here on DU I'm absolutely delighted. I've been reading the many threads and posts about it for the last 3 hours.

I called a friend, a fellow NY native and staunch Democrat, and we rejoiced together. We hope this is just the beginning, that GA will follow with indictments now that NY has led the way; followed by any other states investigating him, and the DOJ.

There are so many posts here celebrating the indictments, and I wanted to chime in but decided to save my 1,500th post for something special, like giving praise and appreciation to New York.

I LOVE NY.....and I'm SO proud!

On my 2017 visit.

Stayed in the Pennsylvania mid town.

Shame they tore down an architectural masterpiece.
