@RyanXOfficial It’s not a deflection or a ruse. It’s a moment to take a breath. In my experience, that usually helps me hear others better, and I hope that it helps others also. — PolitiTweet.org

@AJealousMonk That officer has been taken off the streets and an imvestigation. I condemn the conduct as I did publicly Sunday. I have zero authority to impose discipline or any remedy within the department until the city charter is changed by the voters — PolitiTweet.org

Sam Liccardo @sliccardo

@andrewhake The city charter doesn’t give me authority to fire anyone outside of my own office. California law restricts how cities can deal with discipline and termination, and the law doesn’t allow it to happen that quickly. https://t.co/QzSdgu1qqh — PolitiTweet.org

I took a knee w/ protestors—as a man of great privilege—to express a simple message: I hear you. We must listen to the calls for change + reform from the masses, & identify the few who wish to inflect harm on our beloved San José. #ICantBreathe https://t.co/PfUSkdjTvb — PolitiTweet.org

@KevinLiao_ @sjpdchief Kevin, don’t you work for the California legislature? The answer is that state law (PORAC) makes it impossible for any city in California to do so without extensive process & hearings. He is under investigation and has been taken off the street pending review — PolitiTweet.org

@rickyealcaraz Hey Ricky, we do very little weed cleaning or sidewalk repaving anywhere in the city because of budget constraints. If you’re willing to join us in community cleanup, I’ll be there with volunteers at a couple of sites —just send an email to [email protected]. Thanks! — PolitiTweet.org
