“Serious crime spiked again last year to levels unseen in nearly two decades, according to internal NYPD data obtained by The Post — even as Mayor Eric Adams has repeatedly claimed that “crime is down” in the Big Apple.“
“For the second year in a row under Adams, overall crime was on the rise — driven by a historic surge in assaults, which neared 28,000 for the first time in the city’s publicly recorded history, according to the police department’s rolling report.“
But to soy boy pussies who live in a small town in mom’s upstairs bedroom, the country is “doing just fine!” under Biden. Of course, some people on the border might disagree…
You know what would make a GREAT reality TV show? I would pay big money to see this: put Comrade Clayton in a “Black Lives Matter” t-shirt with his stupid fake cowboy hat on and let him loose on the South Side of Chicago at around 11pm on a Saturday night. We could give him a clipboard and have him ask all the nice black males how much their lives have improved under Joe Biden.
THAT would be hilarious. Unfortunately, the “season” would only last about 22% of one episode and then be cancelled because comrade Clayton would be on a gurney or in the morgue before the first commercial break. Stupid asshole.
They play other games to manipulate the data, too:
I don’t typically read The Radiogram since it is a repository for Ronnie Witcher’s terrible grammar, fourth-grade spelling and liberal retardation. But that doesn’t stop me from folding it up into a square and using it as a coaster for my beer every Thursday at Memo’s.
The EDC has three members whose two-year terms are about to end and all three have indicated they would like to continue serving. They are Fin Erwin, Misti Talbert and TJ Monroe.
However, we understand that there are several other citizens who have indicated their desire to serve on the EDC board. The EDC does not appoint its own members as the EDC is a function of the City of Lampasas and has little independence. The board did agree to recommend that the City reappoint all three of the current board members, but that is something the Lampasas City Council will have to decide on.
Isn’t that nice? The LEDC board (Misti, TJ and Fin) “recommended” that City council reappoint Misti, TJ and Fin! Now you see why I call them “inbred.”
Let’s start with TJ Monroe: she has been on the LEDC board since at LEAST February of 2013 – almost TWELVE YEARS! She may have been there longer, but records online do not go back that far. Suffice it to say she has been there since the earth cooled.
TJ has been on the LEDC long enough and made enough horrible decisions as both mayor, council member and LEDC board member that she definitely deserves the boot if other people want a shot. City council should give her her pink slip, pronto. Time to go play bingo, spend time with the grandkids and do your embroidery. You’ve fucked things up enough, lady.
That $971,000 was pilfered over TWO AND A HALF YEARS AGO. Yet the “Business Pork” STILL sits empty. Talbert has been a failure both as a mayor and president of the LEDC. If she owned a funeral home, nobody would die.
Between her longevity and incompetence, Misti Talbert ALSO deserves to be removed from the LEDC board if others want to apply in her place.
Now why would they select a seemingly random guy to be on the LEDC board when they had at LEAST five other perfectly willing candidates who actually took the time to fill out all the bullshit paperwork???
Because Fin Erwin is….wait for it…married to Misti Talbert’s sister, Haley Gibson! Did I tell you the LEDC was rife with nepotism and inbreeding, or what?? I’ve warned ya’ll about it repeatedly for years now.
The best action City council can take on this matter? Removal of Talbert, Monroe and Erwin on the grounds of incompetence, malfeasance, nepotism, and general retardation. They need to select three fresh bodies from the pool of recent applicants.
Hell, let Mike Irvin run the whole fucking LEDC by himself. He’s done more for the City in the last 5 years than these retards have managed in two decades.
I have no opinion either way on the hiring of an EDC Director except the one I have always held: we don’t need one and it’s a massive waste of money. But one thing that IS certain is that Potato Head has been wrong about EVERYTHING she has opined upon for the last 10 years or so. We have covered that extensively on these very pages. From the severity of Covid to masking to vaccinations to Ivermectin, she has been 100%, unwaveringly WRONG about them all. The only thing Potato Head MIGHT be good for on any board is to do the opposite of what she ‘thinks.’
I have zero doubt she will weasel her way onto one of these boards eventually. She has nothing else to do.
Another gem from the minutes is the fact that even though they budgeted $30,200 for Business Pork signage almost a YEAR ago, they STILL managed to go over budget by 23%! Actually, by LEDC standards, 23% over budget is a HUGE savings compared to the last 20 years of bungling and money wasting.
Truly, the beating heart of the Democrat party is mentally ill women. There can be ZERO doubt about this….
The cat ladies will be the last to come to their senses. They will have to go through many stages to come to terms with being wrong. However, many of them will never admit it and advance to ‘crazy cat lady’ status for the remainder of their lives.
Let’s check in on the average female voter, shall we?
KAMALA VOTER: "I don't really trust the Republicans right now. I like to go to the strip club and stuff. I think they're going to close down the strip clubs."
“Request for possible action regarding draft RFQ (request for quote) for broker representation for Business Park”
So let me get this straight. They’ve spent the last TWENTY YEARS dicking around in every other way imaginable to fill this thing:
#1 – Junkets to California – yes, this really happened. A bunch of council members and hangers-on actually got on a plane and flew to California for a free vacation economic development excursion. Of course, nothing resulted from it.
#2 – the “weekly RFI (requests for information) from the governor’s office.” I think we can safely say after 19 years of “getting weekly RFIs” and having zero tenants to show for it, that this avenue is and was totally useless. I called them on this exact bullshit nine months ago:
#3 – Blow money on numerous videos, emails, digital ads, print ads, social media, etc. (Neon Cloud, Site Selection and Flyerview) – cost of over $15,000 in one year alone and WELL over $50,000 since inception. Results? Zero tenants.
So after failing in so many different expensive and spectacular ways over the last 20 years, Finley and the LEDC have come up with the genius idea to hire a commercial broker who “specializes in commercial development.“
This ought to be fun to watch!!
Current number of days the $7.2 million dollar “Business Park” has been completely empty and devoid of tenants: 7,487
Lenox also has an average income over over $110,000 per year. It’s where rich, lily white elitist twats go to get as far away from the border and brown/black people as they can.
Also:
#1 – you don’t NEED to “cross a desert” to become an American. You need to get in line and go through the proper channels…not sneak through the bushes or dig under a fence. You dumb twat.
#2 – they are not “becoming an American” and assimilating. They are running around with towels on their heads and demanding the rules be changed for them.
I once again send my prayers to heaven that Carol Garner Doughty get carjacked, beaten and raped by an illegal. THAT is true justice. THAT, unfortunately, is they only way dummies like her will wake up to reality.
The current budget hasn’t been officially “approved” yet, but I reminded them that, according to the City’s own charter [SECTION 6.02]:
The budget shall be finally adopted not later than the fifteenth (15) day of the last month of the fiscal year. Should the Council take no final action on or prior to that day, the budget, as submitted, shall be deemed to have been finally adopted by the Council.
So it’s now in my possession.
CITY EMPLOYEE SALARIES – TOTAL
Current budget salaries: $7.313 million
New budget salaries: $7.793 million
Change: UP 6.5%
CITY EMPLOYEE BENEFITS – TOTAL
Current budget benefits: $3.186 million
New budget benefits: $3.676 million
Change: UP 15.4%(!!!)
My god. The cost to the taxpayer for all the cushy benefits just went up over FIFTEEN PERCENT! Almost a HALF A MILLION BUCKS. That’s your gold-plated health insurance, dental, eye, life insurance, DOUBLE matching on retirement contributions, etc.
Must be nice! But Ryan Ward will STILL tell you how underpaid he is! Speaking of Dwight Schrute himself, let’s look at the City Manager’s expenses, shall we? As far as I know, it’s still just Finley and Dwight on the payroll. So these are for two people.
City manager department salaries and benefitscurrent budget: $381,889
New budget: $399,338
Change: UP 4.6%
Only a measly 4.6%? Must have something to do with highly-paid Finley retiring in a month and the new guys making less.
Some other random departments:
City secretary department: UP 13%
IT Department: UP 9.3%
Parks & Recreation: UP a massive 42%! Looks like a few new hires – salaries and bennies up big. Only way to see that is hiring a few more guys.
Police Department: UP 7.4%
Fire Department: UP 20% (!!!) (I even removed large capital expenses like last year’s $800,000 fire engine, etc)
Some hella big increases in there! Certainly not the kind of budget made up by anyone who is maybe expecting a recession in the next year.
You know what WASN’T increased a single penny? The salaries at Hannah Springs pool! That will be EXACTLY the same. You know the Hannah Springs pool? The one they can never attract enough workers for? That one.
Total operating expenses for the City (this includes electric fund) is now just a hair under $37 million at $36.712 million. Previous was $33.910 million – for an increase of 8.26%. Not exactly austerity.
More to come when the ACTUAL line-item budget is approved after next council meeting.
This might be the 27th time our fake rancher has posted this exact same blurb.
Comrade Clayton is sitting upstairs in mom’s bedroom complaining on Twitter in the middle of a work day. A true socialist.
Things Clayton Tucker COULD be doing instead:
Create the website you promised you were working on NINE MONTHS ago to “sell meats locally.”
Stop wasting all your time traveling to idiotic conferences and actually raise some beef and sell to a local processor, like M&M. I know several people who do this. You are in NO WAY beholden to the “monopoly” you complain about.
Conversely, Amy and George Winters were hustling and pushing beef on what is traditionally the last big BBQ weekend of the year…
It’s like a guy whining that the NBA is “a monopoly” because he can’t get into the league when that same guy doesn’t even know how to dribble a basketball, because he’s been too lazy his entire life to learn.
So with all that handed to him, what did he do? Fucked around until age 34 on social media crying about how unfair the world is. He does nothing but tweet socialist shit, take pictures with goats and waste time at useless rallies and conventions filled with mentally ill men who dress up like women.
That’s not how you learn the ranching trade. That’s how you end up a fucking loser…as we can now see.
Then when his pockets are empty and his mom is his roommate, he complains about “Big Ag” ruining everything.
What a complete and utter ZERO.
Just to REALLY drive home what a loser Comrade Clayton is, lemme tell you about my nephew who will turn 24 next week. TEN YEARS younger than Comrade Clayton:
Ever since he started working as a boat hand in high school, he wanted to be a fisherman. My idiot sister insisted on useless college, so he did that. Total waste of about $200k, but my sister was robbed of brains at birth. I got them all.
He’s about 6’5 and 250 pounds. He played rugby and drank beer. He’s a good kid. Probably my favorite nephew. He also despises socialists, Joe Biden and anything associated with the “democratic” party. I taught him all that from an early age.
I also taught him about sound money and gave him a gold coin every other Christmas to save for the future. Gold was $300 back when he was born. It is now $2,580. That money is part of his down payment on the boat.
He graduated a couple years ago. Since then, he has lived with his parents – but he did this to SAVE MONEY in order to buy his own boat…not go to tranny conventions.
This kid gets up at 3:30am (not at 9:30am like Comrade Clayton), drives down to the docks and gets on the water by 4:15am. He’s out there until about 1pm then comes back to the docks and sells his catch to the waiting van.
I like to picture that van driving off to the local restaurant where an old lady and her loser 34-year-old son are having lunch. Mom shells out the $24 for two fried flounder sandwiches because the son is a freeloading socialist barnacle who is buried in his iPhone posting garbage on his Twitter page.
He does this almost every single day. Show me another 24-year-old who can get his ass out of bed at 3:30am every morning and do physical labor most of the day.
More often than not, after THAT he THEN goes out on his little small skiff he bought a few years ago and fishes some more. He comes home stinking like a whorehouse at low tide. He shovels in 8 pounds of food, including a lot of fish he brings home and prepares himself…then he’s in bed at 7pm for the next day.
Oh, he also has a girlfriend who doesn’t have a penis.
He’s essentially the anti-Clayton.
Two days ago, he OFFICIALLY bought the boat from that old buzzard with the white beard you see standing at the front of the boat photo. He is now his own man. He’s just proud as shit of himself. Rightfully so.
My sister and brother-in-law think he’s crazy. They’d rather he find a nice paper-pusher job. Maybe something like fake rancher or City Manager or ‘political consultant.’ Maybe he IS crazy. Maybe he’ll fail spectacularly. But I told him NOW is the time to fail – while you’re still young and can try again. No wife, kids or mortgage to worry about yet. The kid has some balls on him.
The sad part is that even if he manages to make a good chunk of change in the future, lazy do-nothing socialist cunts like Clayton Tucker and Kamala Harris will have their hands out to take 40% of it. You can be sure of that.
You don’t have to “HATE” Haitians to acknowledge the fact that dropping 20,000 of them on a town of 60,000, with the vast majority of them in need of extensive welfare and social services, is an act of warfare.
So – 7 million cars represents less than 1/2 of 1 percent of all cars in the world. The other 99.60% of the cars on the road will still be doing their thing.
Also, cotton requires a TON of water to grow – and previously comrade Clayton was telling us we are about to run out of water! It takes about 1,200 hundred gallons of water to grow a single pound of cotton
Vox = socialist rag run by dipshits without any science degrees.
But that’s all forgotten. He’s on to the new “crisis” and a new “solution” to his imagined crisis. All from the guy who can’t get his shit together enough to live on his own. LOL. Hilarious.
