A New York state lawmaker has been accused of firing three staff members after they urged him to take a stand against white supremacy in the wake of the mass shooting at a Buffalo supermarket.
Legislative Director Nicole Golias, Director of Community Relations Matthew Dearing and Communications Director Brendan Keany claimed they were all ousted from Democrat Assembly member Patrick Burke’s office on Tuesday following a heated disagreement about his handling of the 14 May massacre where a self-proclaimed white supremacist and racist allegedly murdered 10 Black people.
