As a Councilman in #SouthBend, I know why @PeteButtigieg looked like a deer in headlights last night when talking about systemic racism in the South Bend Police. He tolerated it, he perpetuated it, and last night he lied to millions of Americans about it.
@LinseyDavis: "Mayor Buttigieg, under your leadership as Mayor, a Black resident in South Bend, Indiana was four times more likely to be arrested for marijuana possession than a white resident." Pete: "The overall rate was lower than national" Davis: "No, there was an increase."
.@GloriaBorger I’m watching @CNN’s panel on delay and was quite shocked just now to hear you assert that @PeteButtigieg has no plans! Several of the policies on his website are the most sweeping & comprehensive in the field. Please see this chat I just had with @JenGranholm! 🙏
Misconceptions also persist about @PeteButtigieg’s record in S. Bend. It’s not true that he hasn’t been dealing well with race issues. His efforts have been extensive & successful, despite being hindered by red state laws & policies. A list with footnotes:

The conflict-oriented national reporting on the recent shooting in South Bend has contributed to the ongoing frustration many Black South Bend residents feel about how Mayor Pete is being portrayed.
Good evening! I will begin live-tweeting the #DemDebate2020 at 9PM ET for @CourthouseNews but in the meantime, let's go over some policy points for each of tonight's contenders.
Tonight’s candidates on the debate stage are: @JoeBiden, @BernieSanders, @KamalaHarris, @PeteButtigieg, @MichaelBennet, @SenGillibrand (Kirsten Gillibrand), John @Hickenlooper, @ericswalwell, @Marwilliamson (Marianne Williamson) and @Andrew Yang.
But first, we'll revisit rules quickly: recall, candidates have 60 seconds to respond, 30 seconds for follow-ups. There will be no opening remarks to save time but closing remarks will be delivered by each.
