Questionable Statements

On April 16, 2020, Shea was widely criticized by the public for his use of social media to promote law enforcement officers' efforts to obscure their identities under the guise of mourning officers lost to COVID-19. ^[1]

On June 9, 2020, Shea was widely criticized by the public for claiming that concrete test pours were being used by George Floyd protestors as disguised potential weapons. ^[2]

These are both referenced to tweets with no substantive measure of constituting 'wide criticism'; any public figure receives similar responses on Twitter. I highly doubt these statements comply with Wikipedia guidelines and am thus removing unless the editor can explain or find a credible source for such statements.
