Tweets of the Week: There’s always parking in Ohio
Rep. Hakeem Jeffries kicked the week off with the most-Brooklyn speech ever, plus Bushwick remains an easy target. Also: a bald eagle!
Every week (more or less) we try to read the entire internet so you don’t have to and curate (some of) our favorite tweets from the previous seven days.
In no particular order, here are your locally sourced, organically grown, free-range nuggets of wisdom and/or jest for the the second week of 2023. These were all written by George Santos. Probably.

an apartment listing in greenpoint stipulates tenants need to have 3-4 months rent in cash in their bank account in addition to the security deposit and first month's rent. at $3,500/month that's $21K cash. to RENT. that's how awful the new york housing market is right now. pic.twitter.com/TadenpXrfy

Just watched The Menu. If you’re in NYC and you want damn near that exact burger from the end, go to Red Hook Tavern. You can even take a boat* there!

Yea no, this wasn’t a mistake. For that to happen, residents have to petition for it. We been know gentrifiers are out here changing our city’s culture and history. F that. I’m glad it’s back – never deny Puerto Rican’s history and influence in Williamsburg https://t.co/bchOpzkeeO
