Re: “Can Burlington Mayor Miro Weinberger Survive a Social Media Scandal?”
Thea, the top law enforcer in our city, with a masters degree in criminal justice, LIED UNDER OATH. The deputy, his replacement, conducted unlawful search of the chiefs critics and the mayors political opponents, IN VIOLATION OF OUR FOURTH AMENDMENT RIGHTS. You think this is about anonymous twitter feuds?
And yeah, unlike these snowflakes, I troll using my own name.

Kurt Wright will get to play Mayor, after all.

Re: “Can Burlington Mayor Miro Weinberger Survive a Social Media Scandal?”
Of course Joan Shannon defends the ex-chief and the soon-to-be ex-mayor! She has been Del Pozo’s most vocal booster since her council president days! Joan Shannon, a real estate agent, sold a house to Inspector Brandon "Racial Profiling" Del Pozo, a controversial candidate for chief of police whose purchase of the house was contingent upon confirmation by the very council Shannon presided over.
Her last-minute recusal notwithstanding, her enthusiastic support as influential council president ultimately helped secure both Del Pozo's confirmation - which to this day she still defends as "the most inclusive process" ever - as well as the hefty commission fee she collected from the $660,000 transaction which to this day she has failed to fully disclose to her constituents.

Re: “Acting Chief Had Her Own Fake Social Media Account — and Has Been Replaced”
Miro is right that Jan Wrights situation is very different than Del Pozos straight-forward lying. Lori Spicer - friended or tried to friend a number of people who are organizers or supporters of local labor movement, renters rights movement, police accountability, and other racial, economic or social justice movements, myself included.
As we only started the effort to identify others, its too early to tell how many, but given the facts even those only loosely or infrequently involved in these working-class political organizations received requests from this Lori Spicer, it could be dozens or even hundreds of Burlington-area residents.
Since Jan Wright conducted these surveillance and infiltration attempts, in her capacity of LEO, under false pretenses, we could make a strong case that our rights to be free of unreasonable searches have been violated. If this was done systematically as part of BPD internal initiatives, we could be looking at civil rights class action against the city for violations our 4th amendment rights.
Stay tuned.

Re: “Dems Endorse UVM Student for Ward 1 Burlington Council Seat”
Thank you all for coming out! The Burlington VT Democrats establishment showed us all tonite what disenfranchisement, marginalization, patriarchy and White Supremacy look like at the local level. The white men running the show threw all our votes away, keeping ZERO proof that their nominees in Wards 2, 3, 4 and 5 actually won the majority of their respective caucus votes. HOWEVER, unlike them, the majority of rank and file Democrats support our cause, and over 80 of them signed our petition supporting Proposition Zero. WE ARE THE MAINSTREAM, AND WE GOT THE #RECEIPTS. https://www.facebook.com/btvrising/posts/3…
