The U.S. Dept. of Justice, 2024: APD is in full compliance with constitutional policing.

@mayorkeller.bsky.social: It was an "arduous journey" but our police culture is "completely different" and "the change is real . . . Now is no time for turning back." It's time for "seeing it through."

"It was an all-out riot," NM Public Safety Secy & chair of the state corrections council Darren White said in 1999. The 2nd largest prison riot in NM history. Super-violent prisoners were sent to a medium-security (corporate) prison. And prisoners murdered guard Ralph Garcia. White for Mayor? Nope.

Jeff Tucker, the dipshit opinion writer at the @abqjournal.bsky.social, is actually asserting that the legacy of @mayorkeller.bsky.social can be found in Coronado Park. Yes, Jeff, you're right for once. Mayor Keller closed Coronado Park almost 40 months ago, and this is what he's turning it into:

Yes, #ABQ Mayor Tim Keller said "I don't want your vote." Guess he got upset. It is upsetting when Darren White says we should "unshackle the police" & "take the gloves off in dealing with the homeless." So yes, if you want the police to beat up the homeless, don't vote for Keller. Otherwise . . .

Trump's East Wing building will be 90,000 square feet. Cost: $300 million.

The jail buildings Day One Darren would need to fulfill his cruel Day One fantasy about the homeless would be about 900,000 square feet. Cost: about $900 million.

Darren White: There's no there there.

Mamdani got this from #Albuquerque and
@mayorkeller.bsky.social, who has built up the best 988 response system in the nation from scratch - w/ trained responders who have their own Academy and are as well-trained as our police. That's leadership. Tim Keller is an awesome Mayor!

The NYPD now responds to hundreds of thousands of mental health calls every year, slowing response times for other emergencies.

We can deploy trained public health workers and allow cops to focus on the serious crimes that too often go unresolved.

At today's debate:

Darren White:
"Mayor, I noticed today that you started referring to me as Day One Darren."

@mayorkeller.bsky.social:
"Day One Darren, the only thing you're gonna do on Day One is break a promise. You're just saying things that are illegal or ineffective or not doable."

If Darren White wins: A tense city lurching from crackdown to crackdown, with aggressive and cruel and militarized law enforcement and overcrowded jails.

If Keller wins: A collaborative community continuing its comeback - optimistic, forward-looking, growth-oriented, and proud.

So the runoff battle for #Albuquerque Mayor began in the closing statements of yesterday's debate. Let's kick it off with some metal lyrics:

Day One Darren’s promises rust
Tim Keller builds engines we all trust
Day One Darren’s words drift like weeds
Our MetalMayor turns grit to deeds

Does Darren White have Trump Schizo Disorder?

Darren White, October 26, 2024: "Wow, Trump made big gains in NM."

October 28, 2024: "The Trump Campaign has the link back up for tickets to Thursday’s rally."

But just a few months earlier, on March 7, 2024:

One major criticism of the @abqjournal.bsky.social debate yesterday: Why ask about the State Fair -- which is up to the Governor -- instead of asking where they all stand on a higher minimum wage in #ABQ? Which is highly relevant to our lives and which the Mayor for the next 4 years could impact.

Joe Monahan @newsguy44.bsky.social wrote in 2013 of Darren White's "heated," "vitriolic," "ad hominem" attacks on NM media:

“a wounded White & his allies have gone off the rails, publicly accusing us of being a liar, a whoremonger, a dastardly tool of the Dems & just an all around really bad guy.”

Good to see @mayorkeller.bsky.social show us his anger over candidates' red meat about homelessness.
Darren White is promising us he'd "unshackle the police" & “take the gloves off when dealing with the homeless” & to end homelessness on Day One. Day-One Darren & his B.S. make me angry too.

Darren White: no economic ideas or leadership capacity, failed on crime, delusional promise to end homelessness on Day One.
Tim Keller: best #ABQ economic leader ever, crime down 35%, & services, beds, & treatment w/ tough love for the homeless.

September 15, 2023: Darren White says APD officers should be forced to do overtime and to forgo vacations. Making our cops work 24/7. Exhausted police. Breaking our officers. Such strong, tough leadership, eh? What could go wrong?

Just became the first voter to vote at San Mateo & Osuna. Why'd I vote for @mayorkeller.bsky.social? I think Tim Keller's a good man, I trust him, he's a super-successful economic leader, he's for a $15 min wage, & he's made many effective moves to deal w/ homelessness & crime & will make many more.
