Can't wait for the Netflix GG Allin biopic starring Zendaya in an Oscar-worthy performance
"Anthony Weiner, jailed for sexting child, eyes political comeback in City Council race for Carlina Rivera's term-limited seat (The Associated Press) "
As noted by a friend of mine, he 's lying already. From this AMNY link, Weiner is quoted as saying:
"Weiner said he is unfamiliar with the other candidates he could run against.
“I don’t know much about the field. I only recently met them,” he said."
He doesn't know who his Assembly person, Harvey
Epstein, is? Such a blatant liar per usual.
