Socialist Shitbird Clayton Tucker is Simultaneously Afraid of the Weather Being Too Hot AND Too Cold

Local socialist worm and thrice-failed political candidate Clayton Tucker has shown us he’s afraid of a lot of things over the last couple years: honest work, paying his own way, and living in his own place. But this takes the cake.

The same idiot who thinks the world is going to overheat from global warming in 10 years and kill us all (yes, Clayton, that’s what “existential” means):

…is also simultaneously petrified that we will see another once-in-100-years cold snap. He also apparently thinks a couple of dozen ill-cut logs will save him:

Clayton forgets that it was his demand of adding unreliable solar and wind to the grid that fucked everything up in the first place.
Lemme guess: grandpa’s land and trees, grandpa’s truck and mom’s fireplace?

Wow! Impressive! We are well into the cold part of the year and have had numerous cold snaps already and you’re posting pics TODAY of cutting a few logs. Bravo. Do mommy and daddy have a fireplace in their house (where you live upstairs) so you can burn those, or are you just going to pile them on top of yourself for warmth?

Don’t evil fireplaces spew CO2 into the air and kill all of us?? That’s what your fellow greentard morons in California tell us.

Here are the FACTS: climate-related disasters killed FAR fewer people in 2021. In fact, it was 98.7% less than a century ago:

The fact that Comrade Clayton is so scared of the grid failing tells me that the grid will be perfectly fine this winter. That is because Comrade Clayton is 100% wrong on every fucking topic he opines on:

I also thought of something else recently: Comrade Clayton lives in the upstairs bedroom at his parent’s house, right? His parents live at 208 S Western – right by the public library, City Hall AND the police station. It occurs to me that this douchebag probably never lost power at all last February! The hospitals, fire departments and POLICE STATIONS are all considered pretty important and were spared the rolling blackouts that the rest of us (like me) endured. I bet there is a pretty decent chance that his parents’ house is on the SAME power sub-grid as those others.

How about it Clayton? Did you even lose power once at mom and dad’s house? I’ll bet you A HUNDRED DOLLARS that you didn’t, you wannabe working man.

In fact, you posted tweets every single day between February 10th and February 19th! Hard to do without power, I would think. You must have had plenty of time on your hands. Shouldn’t a “rancher” be out at his “ranch” taking care of things instead of posting drivel on Twitter?

You wanna see prepared? It’s called the Rule of Threes (have a backup for your backup) – and it got me through that freak once-in-a-lifetime cold snap without harm and without crying for Ted Cruz or government help.

Unlike you, I don’t just talk about solar panels and not own any. I’ve been solar-powered for ten years:

I also have a backup generator with a massive tank:

…and when that son of a bitch genny shit the bed on day 5 at 6am in zero-degree weather due to a frozen gas regulator, I also had many cords of wood ready to go to heat the house while I thawed that bitch out:

It was fucking mayhem out here in the boondocks – things failing left and right, running around at 2am in the pitch dark freezing cold keeping shit running, keeping the animals alive, going out to manually switch over from grid to genny over and over.

Not ONCE did I think “man, I wish Senator Cruz was here to do all this for me – what a dick he is for heading down to warmer weather”. That’s because I’m not a pussy who expects The Government to take care of me. I do that shit myself. I don’t give a fuck if Cruz flies to Tahiti – what difference does it make in my life?

Do you know how sad it is that you are 31 years old and crave TWO sets of parents to take care of you? Your actual parents, who provide you with a roof over your head…and Big Government, who you want to hand you free shit for life. Grow a dick, man. Grow some balls too, while you are at it.

Man was not meant to suckle mommy’s tit through dentures.

Know what else? I paid for all this shit myself! Mom and Dad didn’t give it to me, like someone else I know.

Crazy, right?

New Assistant City Manager To Be Paid 30% HIGHER Than National Average

Boy, City council and Finley REALLY know how to pinch the pennies! Remember all this when you pay your electric bills every month – the bills that just went up on November 1st of last year because City Government has to feed that rapacious monkey known as Fat Nerf Job Salaries.

Ryan Ward

The City recently hired Ryan Ward as the new Assistant City Manager (ACM). I requested salary details since Finley didn’t want to provide them last week to The Dispatch. Turns out Mr. Ward will be paid $110,000 per year. If that seems high for an ASSISTANT City manager in a small town in Central Texas, you are correct. It is 30% higher than the national average.

According to The Dispatch last week:

The midpoint of that range is $84,540 – which is a hell of a good STARTING salary for a small town in a state that has a much lower cost of living than, say, California or New York (or Austin, for that matter). I guess Finley (who has never worked in the private sector) doesn’t see it that way. Instead, they will START Mr. Ward at $110,000 per year.

[Don’t forget the bennies, either! According to Finley himself on many occasions, the cost of those generous government benefits (medical, retirement, etc) is roughly 40% of an employees salary. That means Mr Ward is now a permanent $154,000 line item in the budget every single year.]

I’d be surprised if Mr Ward didn’t also have a generous car/phone/travel allowance as well.

Here’s the weird thing: Ward left his previous job in Santa Fe County after less than two years AND he was making $104,000 there. Why pull up stakes and uproot your family for a measly $6,000 pay raise? I’d make a small wager that Finley promised him a quick raise after 6 months or so. Even money says we see Mr Ward get a bump in salary before the year is out. Any takers??

According to his LinkdIn profile, he has jumped around a lot (5 jobs in the last 10 years) with a short stint in the private sector:

He spent 12 years with the Texas DOT (2000 to 2012) then jumped ship to work for the City of San Angelo (December 2012 to July 2017).

He then jumped to the private sector for a very short time (18 months) when he worked for NTT DATA Services in Austin. Then he jumped BACK to the public sector with the City of Austin as “Division Manager, Right of Way” – for just barely over a year – where he was making $122,000 per year (according to govsalaries.com).

Then he skedaddled off to New Mexico just as the pandemic hit in March 2020 where he didn’t last two years – and is now returning to Texas.

I’m also wondering why Finley had to look in New Mexico for an ACM? There are 20,000 people in Lampasas County and by his own admission he had 30 applicants for the job.

Then again, Finley has had very shitty luck with his ACM picks thus far. Pick #1 (Gary Cox ) was a buffoon who wasted a ton of money (recycling program, overpriced A/V system for City council that he signed off on) and then got fired resigned after a rumored prank about Goldfish crackers. Not exactly a stellar career here in Lampasas

Then Rickie Roy was made ACM, but I’m not sure Finley had anything to do with that. Roy was already a proven winner (public works) who moved up through the ranks and then inexplicably resigned.

Then Finley was tasked with finding a replacement – who was apparently hired but then quickly quit and decided to take another job somewhere else! Strike two!

So this will be Finley’s third swing with the ACM bat. Can’t wait to see how it turns out!

2022 Will Be Epic

If you love watching slow-motion train wrecks, 2022 will be a great year, I predict. Look at all the eggs City council has in the air – more than a few will go SPLAT!

  1. Hostess House remodel refresh. Clearly, City council learned nothing from the $1.5 million Old City Hall renovation fiasco and will be launching an encore performance over the next year. When the City took over the Hostess House, they lied and said the HH needed a few “minor repairs”. Now, they are planning on spending over $1.4 million – and another elevator will be involved! We know how well that turned out last time.

2. Skate park and pavilion. This is another project that has already doubled in price before ground was even broken (from $200,000 to $400,000 just for skate park). The pavilion will cost at least $175,000 (I’ll take the over on that, too).

Janet “Crazier” Crozier, the local recycling/gardening loon is also trying to attach $10,000 worth of water tanks to this project, in what is a VERY questionable use of HOT funds (yes, I’ll be making that case later this year with a lawyer, if need be). The Community Gardens spent a grand total of only $35 on water last year (their water bill is subsidized by the taxpayers) – yet still demand the taxpayer fund a $10,000+ idiotic rain catch system.

3. New Assistant City Manager. Ryan Ward was hired to be the new ACM. He can never take the place of Rickie Roy, of course. Rickie was taken from us far too soon. Rest assured I will put Mr. Ward through the wringer this year. I am still waiting to hear how much they are paying this guy – the City could not be bothered to divulge that to The Dispatch last week. I doubt he could be any worse than Gary Cox, however. We’ll see.

4. Business Park Phase One Two. This is the granddaddy of City boondoggles. This phase of the boondoggle will assure the LEDC and City will have wasted at LEAST $6 million on this thing before it is all done. LEDC head moron Misti Talbert just signed off on another $1.5 million in borrowing for this goat pasture (Mike White’s words, not mine).

The entire premise of this Business Park is idiotic and built on faulty logic and assumptions. It will be a failure, as it has been for the last 17 years. I predict many, many additional costs to pop up over this year. They will all be documented here in great detail.

One Year Later…

Funny how things change in a year. You’ll never, EVER hear any apologies or admission of being wrong from the lefty idiots like Bruce Haywood, Potato Head Stephanie Fitzharris or Clayton Tucker. They don’t care and have zero pride or shame. They’ll just keep voting for idiots who wreck things and leave a swath of destruction in their path – like Joe Biden.

Look At This Fucking NERD!

BAHAHAHAHAHA. I guess the Bernie Sanders splinter group has splintered even further into THIS nest of Marxist roaches:

I think if my son was excitedly jabbering in a soprano voice at a socialist rally while holding a Big Bird doll, I might just die of shame. Right after I beat some sense into him.

Our Revolution Texas is now broken down further into Our Revolution North Texas. Not sure why local doughboy Comrade Clayton is shilling for these fellow dorks because according to him, he is leaving Our Revolution Texas to go and “organize” with a new group of shithead commies called “TradeJusticeEd”.

“Organize” is Tucker-speak for “loaf around chanting slogans and continuing to live off of my parents at their house at 208 South Western in Lampasas”.

Comrade Clayton wants SO BADLY to be this guy:

Image
This is NOT my truck. I am posing.

“I’m a rancher! I’m a farmer! I’m a cowboy!”. Yeah, you’re a cowboy like George Bush was a cowboy. Only without the connections, money and family name. Oh, and without your own apartment.

The sad reality is THIS little guy with the fupa:

Hey man! Save some chicks for the rest of us!

Look Comrade Clayton, I get why you are angrily yelling and demanding free shit all the time. Every Dad who finds out he’s having a boy gets excited about the idea of throwing the ball around in the backyard, teaching him how to tie a tie, and giving him advice on girls. Then you came along and were a constant source of disappointment to your old man, which left you angry and bitter.

The old man better forget about grandkids too, unless Robert Francis O’Rourke figures out a way to impregnate your rectum.

Will this socialist roach make another run at City council in a few months? Please god, let it happen.

P.S. – the more all of you Google “Clayton Tucker Lampasas Texas” and click on any Lampasshole search results, the higher Comrade Clayton Tucker of Lampasas Texas climbs on the results list. That means more time and money Comrade Clayton Tucker of Lampasas Texas has to spend scrubbing all these blog posts demonstrating what a fuckup he is.

Rhonda Witcher Ends The Year The Same Way She Started It: A Fear-Mongering Moron

It seems like just yesterday I moved to Lampasas, read the local Radiogram for the first time and asked the bartender at Lucky Ranch: “Does a retard write this thing? I’ve seen better grammar, sentence structure and factual information from a third grader”.

Not long after, I unknowingly ran into Rhonda Witcher herself at The County Seat – and got into a shouting match about socialism and Big Government with her. I remember being absolutely shocked to find a big-government moron liberal in a small town in Texas. After all, I moved here to get away from that kind of shit.

I had no idea it was the same chick who wrote the Radiogram. After I found out, I made sure to get the Radiogram every single day, correct all the spelling, grammar and factual errors in red pen and then drop it off at the radio station. I did this for about six weeks, because I am an asshole that way.

Yes, this is a true story.

Well, over the last 10 years, I have become somewhat desensitized to Rhonda’s stupidity. I was unsurprised to see her fall for all the Covid nonsense. I was even more unsurprised she was still falling for it 18 months later. But her headline yesterday takes the cake. Rhonda, you are a town treasure. You are a village idiot of biblical proportions. Here is what panic-porn peddler Rhonda had to say about the OMICRON variant yesterday:

Yes, you need to watch out for that Omnicrom variant – the one that doesn’t exist because “omnicrom” is not a Greek letter. It is gibberish straight from the brain of Rhonda Witcher. And by “brain”, I mean a single wrong fact rolling around in his empty skull like a BB pellet in an empty tuna fish can.

The Radiogram prints more garbage after that:

Dr. Bhavna Lall, an internal medicine physician and clinical assistant professor at the University of Houston’s College of Medicine, said “It’s really important that people do the measures we already know work getting vaccinated, getting their boosters if eligible, wearing masks indoors, testing before gathering, and practicing physical and social distancing,” Lall said Wednesday. “We have the tools that we know work, so we want to make sure people use them right now.”

Wrong, Sugar. Literally NONE of the things you listed works. Not one. Not masks, not the vaccines, not social distancing…nothing. Even that pudding-brain Grandpa Joe was FINALLY forced to admit yesterday that “there is no federal solution to the virus”. In other words, all the bullshit we foisted on you was a colossal waste of time. The virus is gonna virus – as I said repeatedly last year.

Ironically, an anagram (look it up, Rhonda) for “omicron” is “moronic” – which is very fitting for Rhonda and his Radiogram.

Even more ironically, Rhonda is about 117 years old, totally decrepit and a prime candidate to get killed off by Covid, according to all his fear-mongering…yet he still draws breath. Amazing! But don’t believe your lying eyes – just take Rhonda’s word for it and be VERY scared of the ‘omnicrom’.

Lefties and Marxists Shrieking About “Our Democracy”

What is behind recent pessimistic appraisals of democracy’s future, from Hillary Clinton, Adam Schiff, Brian Williams and other elite intellectuals, media personalities, and politicians on the Left? Some are warning about its possible erosion in 2024.

Others predict democracy’s downturn as early 2022, with scary scenarios of “autocracy” and Trump “coups.”

To answer that question, understand first what is not behind these shrill forecasts.

  • They are not worried about 2 million foreign nationals crashing the border in a single year, without vaccinations during a pandemic. Yet it seems insurrectionary for a government simply to nullify its own immigration laws.
  • They are not worried that some 800,000 foreign nationals, some residing illegally, will now vote in New York City elections.
  • They are not worried that there are formal efforts underway to dismantle the U.S. Constitution by junking the 233-year-old Electoral College or the preeminence of the states in establishing ballot laws in national elections.
  • They are not worried that we are witnessing an unprecedented left-wing effort to scrap the 180-year-old filibuster, the 150-year-old nine-person Supreme Court, and the 60-year tradition of 50 states, for naked political advantage.
  • They are not worried that the Senate this year put on trial an impeached ex-president and private citizen, without the chief justice in attendance, without a special prosecutor or witnesses, and without a formal commission report of presidential high crimes and misdemeanors.
  • They are not worried that the FBI, Justice Department, CIA, Hillary Clinton, and members of the Obama administration systematically sought to use U.S. government agencies to sabotage a presidential campaign, transition, and presidency, via the use of a foreign national and ex-spy Christopher Steele and his coterie of discredited Russian sources.
  • They are not worried that the Pentagon suddenly has lost the majority support of the American people. Top current and retired officers have flagrantly violated the chain-of-command, the Uniform Code of Military Justice, and without data or evidence have announced a hunt in the ranks for anyone suspected of “white rage” or “white supremacy.”
  • They are not worried that in 2020, a record 64 percent of the electorate did not cast their ballots on Election Day.
  • Nor are they worried that the usual rejection rate in most states of non-Election Day ballots plunged—even as an unprecedented 101 million ballots were cast by mail or early voting.
  • And they are certainly not worried that partisan billionaires of Silicon Valley poured well over $400 million into selected precincts in swing states to “help” public agencies conduct the election.

What then is behind this new left-wing hysteria about the supposed looming end of democracy?

It is quite simple.

The Left expects to lose power over the next two years – both because of the way it gained and used it, and because of its radical, top-down agendas that never had any public support.

After gaining control of both houses of Congress and the presidency – with an obsequious media and the support of Wall Street, Silicon Valley, higher education, popular culture, entertainment, and professional sports—the Left has managed in just 11 months to alienate a majority of voters.

The nation has been wracked by unprecedented crime and nonenforcement of the borders. Leftist district attorneys either won’t indict criminals; they let them out of jails or both.

Illegal immigration and inflation are soaring. Deliberate cuts in gas and oil production helped spike fuel prices.

All this bad news is on top of the Afghanistan disaster, worsening racial relations, and an enfeebled president.

  • Democrats are running 10 points behind the Republicans in generic polls, with the midterms less than a year away.
  • Joe Biden’s negatives run between 50 and 57 percent—in Donald Trump’s own former underwater territory.
  • Less than a third of the country wants Biden to run for reelection. In many head-to-head polls, Trump now defeats Biden.

In other words, leftist elites are terrified that democracy will work too robustly.

After the Russian collusion hoax, two impeachments, the Hunter Biden laptop stories, the staged melodramas of the Kavanaugh hearings, the Jussie Smollett con, the Covington kids smear, and the Rittenhouse trial race frenzy, the people are not just worn out by leftist hysterias, but they also weary of how the Left gains power and administers it.

If Joe Biden were polling at 70 percent approval, and his policies at 60 percent, the current doomsayers would be reassuring us of the “health of the system.”

They are fearful and angry not because democracy doesn’t work, but because it does despite their own media and political efforts to warp it.

When a party is hijacked by radicals and uses almost any means necessary to gain and use power for agendas that few Americans support, then average voters express their disapproval.

That reality apparently terrifies an elite.

It then claims any system that allows the people to vote against the Left is not people power at all.

Look How Much Money the LEDC Has Squandered Over The Last Six Years

Sickening.

That’s the only way to describe the utter waste of tax dollars called the “Lampasas Economic Development Corporation”. After seeing the latest figures (10/1/19 through 9/30/20), I decided to go over the previous five filings as well. The following totals are the amounts wasted by the LEDC in JUST the last six fiscal years (10/1/14 through 9/30/20):

INTEREST PAYMENTS: $327,173 That is money that goes straight into the pockets of the banks for the privilege of borrowing money to “improve” the ‘goat pasture’ (former councilman Mike White’s words, not mine) known as The Business Park. That is $327,173 in tax dollars that will not be used for parks, streets or swimming pools. It is gone forever. Misti Talbert and TJ Monroe (among others) are directly responsible for this.

LEGAL FEES: $93,237 How the LEDC managed to blow nearly a hundred grand on legal fees for a “business park” that has sat empty for 17 years is beyond my comprehension. Perhaps the idiots who run the LEDC can comprehend it (Talbert, Monroe, etc), but I cannot. Some lawyer out there has a nice new boat, no doubt. Citizens of Lampasas have nothing to show for it.

ADMIN/OVERHEAD: $72,000 The LEDC spend exactly $12,000 per year on administration/overhead. Year in and year out. It appears it is paid to the City – perhaps for consulting their accountants and wasting City time. But I really couldn’t tell you. More money vaporized.

ADVERTISING/PROMOTION: $31,389 The LEDC has somehow spent over $30,000 promoting and advertising their “business park”. What exactly are they advertising and promoting? A goat pasture (Mike White’s words, not mine) with tumbleweeds and cactus all over it? Whatever they spent it on, the ‘business park’ STILL sits empty after 17 years.

TRAVEL: $31,205 The LEDC has blown over $30,000 on “travel” over those six years. While $5,000 per year might not sound like a lot in the grand scheme of things, I have to wonder why it isn’t $0. Where exactly do these dunces need to travel to and why? What was gained by it? Clearly not any tenants for the goat pasture (Mike White’s words, not mine). Anyways, somebody got a lot of nice little useless junkets. The taxpayers got the bill.

FURTHERMORE – all this money is being thrown around with next to ZERO controls or oversight. I have covered repeatedly how Misti Talbert and TJ Monroe essentially oversaw their own activities by holding positions on the LEDC and City council (as MAYORS!) at the same time. It is a very incestuous and inbred group of dummies.

This group ALSO: (1) has no written whistleblower policies, (2) has no written conflict of interest policies and (2) has no written document retention and/or document destruction policy.

Add all that up? You have a small group of insulated, inbred, low-IQ people with next to zero oversight handling millions of tax dollars who are not accountable for their results. The predictable outcome is exactly the one that has been taking place over the last 17 years: millions of dollars wasted and nothing to show for it.

Disband the LEDC. Eliminate the Director of Economic Development position. Let the free market preside.

LEDC Non-Profit Filing Now Available For 2019/2020 Period.

The following numbers are for the fiscal year beginning on Oct 1, 2019 and ending on September 30, 2020. Numbers for the recently-completed year ending September 30, 2021 are not available:

LEDC skimmed exactly $348,835 in sales tax revenue during this period. That is $348,835 that never made its way into City coffers to be used for things like parks, roads, or swimming pools. It is a record amount (breaking last year’s record of $313,229). We are talking about handing nearly $1000 per day (every single day) to these clowns to play with.

$48,677 was spent on paying the interest for all of their borrowing for their business park project. That “goat pasture” (former councilman Mike White’s words, not mine) has sat unfilled for nearly 17 years now. That $48,677 is money that goes straight into the pockets of the banks.

$48,337 was spent on “grants and other assistance to domestic organizations”. No idea what this is – perhaps the “Life Safety Grants” they are giving out? By my count that adds up to only about $26,000 right now. Could also be for Lampasas Higher Education. Will request details.

$57,938 was spent on “contracted services” with no further explanation (I am requesting details). No doubt Pope Eckermann is involved there.

$12,000 was spent on “Admin and overhead” as it is every year. This is essentially a fee to the City for the use of their accountant, etc, as far as I can tell.

$121,979 on “other – program service expense” (Schedule O). I assume this is the cash they handed out during Covid to many undeserving “businesses’ like Wool & Vine. I’m looking into details there also – last I heard they were reimbursed by the Feds for that.
