​The very words of Chairwoman & ANC8A Commissioner Holly Muhammad and the very Commissioner who represents eight year Ward 8 resident Tom Donohue.  Toms request?  "please forward me the link to the Zoom meeting" a request only Ms. Muhammad could complete.

How did we get here?  It started during the July 13, 2021 - the public AMC Commissioner meeting which was broadcast on the Zoom platform.  See Commissioner More and Commissioner Muhammad were going round and round in circles about the method Moore was using to sign into the Zoom meeting - for whatever reason Moore was unable to login using her normal provided link which will automatically give Commissioner Moore the panelist the access she needs in order to be heard and seen during the meeting.  At about 9pm, Commissioner Moore was trying to address a matter that was currently under discussion her only ability to communicate was via the  chat box.  Ms. Moore was hardly able to perform her duties since Ms. Muhammad refused to simply upgrade whatever login Ms. Moore was using in to panelist so Ms. Moore could properly represent her constituents.  Commissioner Muhammad refused to grant Ms. Moore the access explaining that Ms. Moore gave out the very link intended for her which had the access to someone else.  At this point the simple fix so the meeting could move forward would be for Commissioner Muhammad to simply upgrade Ms. Moore's access with the push of a button.  At this point several constituents were complaining and just asking Commissioner  Muhammad to simply allow her the access she needs.  Tom joined the collective voices already asking for her to simply upgrade her access and upon seeing his chat box messages, Chairwoman Mohammad without cause or warning or discussion with the other commissioners the Chairwoman ejected Tom from the publicly held meeting which prevented his re-admittance. 

This is where you can pick up the email chain back and forth which starts with Tom sending the ANC Executive Director a letter requesting an investigation ...  that's where we the email comes into play.  Review the following email string starting from the bottom to the top as the top is the most recent email.

As a follow up to Ms. Muhammad ejecting me from Tuesday night meeting 4 of of the 7 Commissioners want a special session to vote removing Chairwoman Muhammad out from her Chair position. The Vice-chair is the one who has to call for the special session however accordingly to the below texts from Commissioner Moore the Vice-chair is friends with the chair and refuses to call the meeting. When the Executive Director of the ANC’s was asked he affirmed that the VC has to call it. I’m exposing this injustice call upon the Mayor to find reason why Gottlieb Simon has not responded to any of my emails or requests for a copy of the zoom meeting. The first image is text between me and Commissioner Moore (The commissioner who the Chair refused to upgrade status to so she could be seen and heard about a matter happening in her SMD) The other images are of emails between the Chairwoman and my ANC elected Commissioner.

I will add, I have never been a member, affiliated, supported or have any connection to the proud boys in Charlottesville or anywhere else nor have I, do I or want to with them or any white supremacy group or any other hate group.
​
(These are just some of her emails and she refers to other emails from the past when I was Seeki g her support for the two stop signs by Boone Elementary which she refused to support until projects she wanted done were advanced first). These emails and such can be found at http://tomdonohue.pw/tomsthoughts/category/holly-muhammad

I ask for my neighbors support. I am not the only one who Ms. Muhammad has ejected from ANC Meetings when she didn’t like they were saying via chat. Her bigger than anyone else attitude must end and replaced with someone who cares about the issues and people over themselves. The Mayors office should seek further into how my requests and communications have gone unanswered by the Executive Director of ANC’s.
​
Due to her refusal to call a special session, the ViceChair should also face a vote of removal.
