Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan and police chief Carmen Best are at odds over the city's handling of the self-declared autonomous zone set up by protesters spanning several blocks surrounding a police precinct.
Best has accused the mayor of shirking her responsibilities as an elected official and allowing protesters to oust police officers from a precinct located inside the 6-block radius now deemed a "cop free zone."
**SNIP**
Attempts to identify the leaders of the organized demonstrations and negotiate a deal to allow officers back into the area have been unsuccessful.
Best and Durkan appeared at a joint press conference on Thursday, and was asked by a reporter if they had faith in each other, Komo News reported.
“Yes, I have faith in the mayor," Best said. "I’m standing right next to her giving this briefing."
“I have confidence in the chief,” the mayor said. "We’ve been asked in other forums, 'Are you going to resign? Is the chief going to resign?' The answer is no and no.”
But the local news outlet reported observers typified the exchange as tense and seemingly forced.
The two city officials have repeatedly given diverging messages over the ongoing situation in Seattle, compounding speculation of rising tensions behind closed doors.

What decisive city governance! Maybe they could run a country next!
“Attempts to identify the leaders of the organized demonstrations and negotiate a deal to allow officers back into the area have been unsuccessful.”
Leftists may despise each other but they’re always willing to put their differences aside and work together in order to further their agenda.
Schumer and Pelosi
Cuomo and Deblasio
Durkin and Best
F’n idiots.
Who are you going to call, NOBODY!
Are either one of them Lesbians? The White Lesbian always defers to the Black Lesbian, it’s the Law you know.
If the Atlanta Police Chief was a Black Lesbian instead of a White Lesbian, she would still be in her Job.
Welcome to the real world.
Says the person occupying real estate that was taken from others.
Well maybe you ought to call the cops. Oops! Nope. Can’t do that. Ah, you’re probably some privileged white b!tch who had the nerve to own stuff. Consider it having been donated to ‘’the cause’’.
Mayor Jenny is.
I’d venture to say you’re right. A couple of carpet munchers. The most oppressed (and privileged ) minority in America is a female black lesbian. They’re untouchable. They walk on water.
What kind of idiot take valuables into a zone run by anarchists/socialists who don’t believe in private property?
the police would not have numerical superiority
if they went into CHAZland
police are concerned about safety
their safety
Why do they hire token black lady police chiefs, then crap hits the fan, and subsequently act surprised at the police tactics and results?
Still sticking with the “protest” label. Even after the riots morphed into open insurrection.
I’d like to follow up that the mayor is a complete nut-bag. Just an idiot.

I don’t see the issue......
Either all property is part of the collective or it is part of the survival of the fittest. Of course the random brain synapses telling her that property exists are not real anymore for that moment in time has passed. She is living in her fairytale nirvana moment, and yet complains? C’mon it’s not like somebody stole your stuff, your reality doesn’t allow for that possibility.
Have a great moment!
