From the transcript

I guess I'm not hearing clearly from the municipal attorney that there's, um, maybe fully an appreciation for, um, us trying to separate out a preliminary review and get that basis of facts, because the problem is I don't— I no longer believe the accusation document knowing what I know now. I think it is flawed. I think the accusation document puts forward campaign activity which is totally separate from removal code to begin with. I think we, we have heard tonight and we have had information provided us that now has been entered into the public record that gives an entirely different representation of why travel was approved. Versus an accusation that was delivered.
