Fighting words from Alvarez

Just like they said they would, members on the Three Valleys Municipal Water District in Claremont called on Director Xavier Alvarez to resign on Wednesday. And, surprise, it passed on a 6-1 vote.
Alvarez, who pleaded guilty to a federal charge of falsely claiming that he won the Medal of Honor, opposed it. BTW: He never served in the military.
But before the vote, Will Bigham reports that Alvarez had a few things to say. Among them, he called Pomona Councilman Marco Robles, who said that voters are fed up with Alvarez, corrupt and accused him of misusing public funds.
Bigham reports: "In a public statement shortly before Wednesday's vote, Alvarez called Robles corrupt and accused him of misusing public funds. He also minimized the impact of a potential recall campaign."
"I'll be the last man standing," he said to Robles.
Alvarez also took shots at his board members, accusing them of arriving at meetings intoxicated and seeking reimbursements for nondistrict events such as birthday parties. And then Alvarez wrapped up his comments with going after Brian Bowcock, the board member who initially pushed for the resolution calling on Alvarez to resign.
"You are a disgrace to the human race," Alvarez told to Bowcock.

Where did he get the uniform and medals from. Shouldn't the local American Legions and VFW's asked him point blank about his so called service to our country. What a slap in the face to Veterans through out the San Gabriel Valley and our troops currently fighting over seas. You rat!
might be a halloween costume. sure is scary
Guys... the pic is obviously a cut and paste of his face on another person's body! Come on!
Never the less we all are aware of what this man did.
His actions are a disgrace to all veterans and military families who have loved ones over seas and else where. This guy looks like a walrus.
Time to hit the road, Alvarez.
He looks like a Mexican version of Captain Crunch
i resent the comparison.
As a walrus i too am offended.
The bow tie and glasses make him look a little like Irkle.

Either way he is a joke and a disapointment to the position he was elected to.
What rank did he attain in the military
