QuoteThe city of Jacksonville's chief administrative officer recently invoked a claim of executive privilege when a City Council investigative committee's attorney asked him to recount conversations with Mayor Lenny Curry, bringing to City Hall a claim more often found in conflicts between the White House and Congress.
Presidents have asserted executive privilege in the face of congressional investigations, most famously during Watergate, but it's a first in Jacksonville.

Obviously Curry and Hughes are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
But I'm not a judge, this isn't a court, and what the hell is going on?
Nothing says cooperation like, "I'm not prepared to speak with specifics about any of the conversations I had with the mayor because you work for a legislative body and I work for the executive."
The truth will come out. If Nate Monroe needs a meeting with his "Deep Throat" in a downtown parking garage, it will come out.

"I work for the executive."
Let's be abundantly clear, that carpet-bagging SOB works for the people of Jacksonville... not the Mayor.
