Was the Bloomington Indiana council elected to preside over international affairs? Do they presume they have any authority to negotiate with foreign nations, or to give ultimatums on behalf of the federal government? Was this a completely symbolic action that was an utter waste of time which could have been better spent working for the people who elected them?
I hope the mayor reminds them of the scope of their civic role and scolds them for wasting tax payer money.
And stop letting potentially anonymous people (trolls) speak over zoom. Who didn’t see that result coming a from a mile away. If anyone from Bloomington wants to be heard they can make their way to the city council meeting to stand up front and speak in person.
