After she loses in the next city election/ Even then, she will have to be dragged out if she is not reelected.

Mayor pushes for an "integrated force", gets an incompetent as a result. Incompetent screws up. Police cheif wantting no part of backlash, throws incompetent under the bus. Mayor being upset with her pet project being outted, fires police cheif. All quiet on the democrat front.

The plot thickens.
What a disaster.
Sadly an innocent woman dies because of multiple layers of incompetence.

The list is long for the Dems to take Hodges' place. The next in line for police chief is part of the diversity game.

I am not sure what sort of a critter a Medaria Arradondo is, but it doesn't sound very Police Chiefy.

Wow. Phony is exactly right.
These protesters though. They scream for change, but who do you imagine they will vote for in the next election?

I am not a fan of the Mayor but where is SECURITY? Even College football coaches always have four of five state troopers surrounding them after the game. What a disaster!

That was a heart-warming, uplifting video. Messy Betsy, the natives are restless, and they're beating on the drums. Maybe she should resign, and apply for the job as President of Evergreen State University, I think they may have an opening soon.

Not to sound too misogynistic, but I don't see them as ideal people for that line of work and it seems they are where they are for purely politically correct reasons.
No different than female Generals IMO and I really wouldn't want one commanding a combat division.
Chief Katie Holmboe gold hill oregon. Oregons second female chief of police and as far as i know the longest running. Damn fine lady.
