Afternoon Briefs on the Los Angeles Political Machine for Tuesday

For the gadflys and citizen activists who turned on Channel 35 today only to find an empty horseshoe, rest assure that your beloved 14 clowncil people are safely sequester in "Baghdad by the Bay" for the annual League of California Cities Conference. We will make sure to observed the next round of Officeholder Accounts disclosures to see who and where Special Interest money was spent in Frisco.

** While the clowncil plays by the bay, the Mayor Antonio Villar's revisionist history/new political incarnation tour once again makes a stop at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. in Washington D.C. While some in the President Barack "H" Obama White House are dubious of Mayor Villar's ethical standing (that comes from an internal source), this trying moment in their respective political history, brings these two progressives together in search of "new revenue streams of taxes" to forward questionable agendas. ** BTW, please link here to Ron Kaye's take on Mayor Villar's quest to "recreate his political persona through revisionist pronouncements".

** Breaking News!!: Speaker of the House John Boehner gave Mayor Villar the "cold shoulder".

** "Due on demand replacing due process"? that is the premise of former CD 4 City Council Candidate Stephen Box as he deconstructs City Attorney Carmen Trutanich's Administrative Citation Enforcement (ACE) Program.

** The Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) will meet next week to discuss whether to grant lawmakers who fail to check their campaign contributions, whoops!, were victimize by Democratic Campaign Treasurer Kinde Durkee, special considerations in replacing lost funds.
