“Goodbye, city I own!”

New York businessmen and 16-year-old rich, white kids who think they're gangsters regularly scream these words—but for once a 24-year-old girl was screaming, and that girl was Sydney Leathers, Anthony Weiner’s notorious former misstress who face-palmed his mayoral campaign when she leaked sexts he had sent her.
