The LA City Ethics Commission says it cannot confirm or deny whether there will be an investigation of Mayor Eric Garcetti’s office, after an official endorsement went out yesterday of Democratic president candidate Hillary Clinton.

They both joined KCRW’s Steve Chiotakis on The Friday Mixer. Listen below:
