Noting the Passing of former CD 11 City Councilman Bill Rosendahl at 70

Former Cable Public Access Television Host, turned Selfless Progressive CD 11 City Councillman Bill Rosendahl, succumbs to four year battle with cancer at the Age of 70. 

The Whody Who Venice Duo of Bil Rosendahl and David "Zuma Dogg" Saltzberg.

** Blogger's Note: A day of solemn refection has surely descended on 200 Spring Street, as the news of the Passing of former CD 11 City Councilman Bill Rosendahl at the Age of 70, becomes public. Rosendahl had fought a roller coaster battle with cancer since 2012, before passing away this morning in the company of friends and family, as noted by the LA Times.

Rosendahl died early Wednesday morning at his home in Mar Vista, surrounded by friends and family, after a four-year battle with cancer, according to a statement by David Graham-Caso, communications director for City Councilman Mike Bonin. Rosendahl was diagnosed in 2012 with cancer of the ureter, the tube that connects the kidney to the bladder. The disease went into remission in 2013, but it reappeared in 2014. His loved ones were told by doctors in January that Rosendahl could pass away "any day,” Graham-Caso said, so for the last three months, they have been visiting his home, holding something of “an amazing living wake." Rosendahl is survived by his longtime partner, book publisher Hedi El Kholti.

A tireless, selfless Progressive, Rosendahl was a sincere persona who in the middle of his battle with cancer, still placed paramount the concerns of those who he could help, above self. Our bloggin memory of Councilman Rosendahl will include his befriending of our former Mayor Sam Blogger David "Zuma Dogg" Saltzberg, as exampled in the photo above.

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Rosendahl Family and Friends as Angelinos join in remembering a Selfless Man of Character.

Morning Briefs on the Los Angeles Political Machine for Tuesday

With a Judicially-exonerated, former CD2/7 City Councilman Richard "Zorro Marxist" AlarCON, free to campaign as a Congressional Challenger against embattled Congressman Tony Cardenas, longtime South LA Soulvine Columnist Betty Pleasant muses about potential "Brown Black Inequality", involving the Voter Fraud Convictions (and dismissal) of State Senator Rodrick Wright and AlarCON. 

 Hahahaha Betty!! I'm exonerated ........., and Rod is still convicted.

Longtime Soulvine Columnist Betty Pleasant.

** Blogger's Note: A light news morning at 200 Spring Street (with the possible exception of Sidewalk Vote, update below), grants us cyber space to catch up on recent musings via the keyboards of Longtime South LA Soulvine Columnist Betty Pleasant and Downtown News Editor and "Reigning Scribe of Wit" Jon Regardie respectively AFTERNOON UPDATE: The City Clowncil Central Committee approves plan to pass on the cost of future Sidewalk Repairs to Property Owners ----Scott Johnson.

** Within the "Space of Being" of longtime South LA Soulvine Columnist Betty Pleasant, every action, event, convictions of corrupt Politicos ........., and their Judicial Exoneration, is viewed through a racial prism as exampled below.

What is the difference between Richard Alarcón and Rod Wright? Alarcon is Hispanic and he’s been vindicated. Wright is Black and he hasn’t. I asked Wright: what are you going to do? He said his appeal was filed with the Second District Court of Appeals last spring and he said he and his attorney are waiting for oral arguments to be scheduled. In light of Alarcón’s acquittal, that district attorney thing we have issued a statement to the effect that her office is “reviewing the court’s opinion and deciding on other options.”

In Betty's opinion ........, Exonerating Corrupt Black Politicos Matters.

 2017 Mayoral Candidate Matthew Schwartz via the Downtown News.

** Downtown News Editor and Scribe of Wit Jon Regardie does a Public Service in enlightening Angelinos on the background of Mayoral Candidate Upstart Matthew Schwartz .........., and some details excerpted below. 

In a nutshell, here’s what you need to know about Schwartz: He’s thoughtful, intelligent and running out of a true desire to help a city that sometimes feels like it’s melting into an economically ravaged, homelessness-plagued sludge. He’s no gadfly and the campaign for this married father of three is serious. He genuinely appears to care far more about the state of Los Angeles than the personal power the mayor’s office affords. At the same time, Schwartz seems shockingly out of his league, with a platform and a race strategy that are as wobbly as a plate of Clifton’s Jell-O. Granted his candidacy is in its infancy, but more than anything he seems to be banking on riding a populist swell against politics as usual. He repeatedly criticized Garcetti and cited Los Angeles’ myriad problems and weaknesses, but was unable to articulate what he personally has done that qualifies him to run a city of 4 million people.

In layman's terms, its about being a candidate speed bump to slow Mayor Gar-SOFT-ee's Sacramento ambitions.

The Newly-Engaged "Antonio and Patricia Villargovea" Do Easter Day of Service on Skid Row

 In a setting reminiscent of past Governance via Photo Ops, by a certain Former Failure Mayor, the Newly-Engaged Duo of Antonio and Patricia Villargovea made their First Public Appearance during an Easter Day of Service on Skid Row.  

Antonio and Patricia Villargovea happily serving the masses.

** Blogger's Note: The Coming Together in Matrimony Tour of Antonio and Patricia Villargovea made its Public Choreographed Debut on Skid Row during an Easter Day of Service. Surely, the first impressions of the soon to be Mrs. Antonio Villargovea, is that she looks quite comfortable playing the image-enhancing partner in the latest political incarnation of City Terrace Native Tony Villar. In comparison to the former Mrs. Corina Villaraigosa, one could make the argument that the pending Mrs. Patricia Villargovea, is more at ease in a public setting with the self-absorbed Politico. Plus, in momentarily channeling past Antonio Villaraigosa's Campaign Consultant/Choreographer "Parque" Skelton,, the new union of Antonio and Patricia Villargovea, is an attractive political offering, especially to the low information voter, who is not well-verse with the past Former Assembly Speaker and Failure Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa's moral (and political) failings. But rest assure as the upcoming 2018 Campaign to replace Governor Jerry "Moonbeam II" Brown commences, California voters will get a refresher education on the soon-to-be Antonio Villargovea's past political (and personal) life----Scott Johnson in CD 14.

Hola Familia!! Do You have a Spare Five, Ten or Twenty Spot for the Nury in CD 6 Campaign?

As the FBI/Federal Grand Jury continue their investigation of the Campaign Practices involving the imploding, Northeast San Fernando Valley Political Machine, the LA Times continues its reporting on the alleged "200 $5, $10 or $20 Donations for ($65,360 in) Matching Fund Scheme" via the 2015 Nury Martinez for CD 6 City Council Campaign.   

Nury thought the Feds said she wasn't a "Person of Interest (allegedly)".

** Blogger's Note: Hola and great post Easter Day to all within our Cyber Familia, as many benefit today from the scheduling of the City of Los Angeles Observance of Cesar Chavez Day. Its safe to say that today's observance of the noted anti-Illegal Immigrant Farm Work Organizer, could not have come at a better time for CD 6 City Councilwoman Nury Martinez and STAFF, who's past "Volunteer Efforts"in the 2015 CD 6 Campaign, to solicit In District, Small Donations (for Public, Campaign Matching Funds), is continuing to garner "Formal FBI/Federal Grand Jury Scrutiny). As LA Times David Zahniser reports in the latest installment on his coverage of Mrs. Gerry Guzman's Fundraising Controversy, family members of the CD 6 Officeholder's Lower Lever Staff, were generous with their spare Five, Ten and Twenty Dollar Bills ..........., that netted $65,360 in Public Matching Funds.

Seven weeks before L.A.'s 2015 municipal election, political aide Caesar Huerta was on the hunt for campaign donations. His boss, City Councilwoman Nury Martinez, needed contributions from 200 of her constituents to make her campaign eligible for up to $100,000 in taxpayer funds. Huerta, a field deputy, turned to aunts, uncles, cousins and others in his immediate circle, asking for as little as $5, according to several members of his extended family. Since then, Huerta and at least eight of his relatives have been questioned by FBI agents, called to appear before a federal grand jury, or both, family members told The Times.

For those of us CD 14 Natives, staffers roles in re-election campaigns, comes as an afterthought, considering that the current Princeton Graduate Officeholder initiates policy directives based upon the loyalty to him, of Special Interests and Constituents. But then unlike CD 14, Councilwoman Martinez does not have a CLARTS Amenities Fund, to supplement Staffer salaries. Thus, their loyalty can only be ensured to a ambiguous, legal tipping point, especially when familia gets involved .........., or Subpoenaed to appear before a Federal Grand Jury----Scott Johnson in CD 14.    

Did Political Smoke obscure the TRUE origin of In District, Small Donations (allegedly)? 

For a Five, Ten or Twenty Spot, you can stand with Nury (allegedly).

BREAKING NEWS!! Tony Villar engaged to become "Antonio VIllargovea for Governor 2018"

Just in time for his rumored, next Political Incarnation, former Los Angeles Failure Mayor Antonio Villar Tweets his Engagement to a centain "Patricia Govea". Thus, setting the stage for his "Antonio Villargovea for Governor in 2018 Campaign, allegedly".

Who is the soon to be Mrs Antonio Villargovea? See below.

** Blogger's Note: Happy sacred Good Friday to all as many of the devout prepare to celebrate Easter 2016. Thus, on this weekend Christians World-wide celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, it comes as no surprise that a certain, narcissus, self-absorbed, former "Rock Star Politico", turned former Failure Mayor ......., takes another consultant-choreographed step to reincarnate his Political Persona.

With no apologies to the likes of Lu, Eva, Corina, Chulitas from City Terrace, Telebimbos, telegenic Gabachas, Mirthala ........, and Charlie, the former Tony Villar, turned Parke Skelton-crafted Antonio Villaraigosa, is now set to become Antonio Villar-govea.

Via his Twitter (in English y Esponal), the City Terrace Native announced his engagement to a certain "Patricia Govea", who has been dating the former Los Angeles Mayor after his fling with Terminator III Actress Kristanna Loken.

Little is known about the soon to be Mrs. Antonio Villargovea, but then people remember little about the rumored Candidate for Governor's First Wife Corina, who played the role of supporting spouse ......, until that day she found incriminating messages from the "Other Woman" on her husband's Blackberry. 

Thus, for many long term observers of Tony/Antonio, his latest attempt at matrimony will surely be seen cynically as another Parke Skelton-crafted attempt to reinvent City Terrace Tony into 2018 Governor Antonio Villargovea ........, but the voters will be timely-reminded of the political (and personal) baggage of a certain, former Failure Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa----Scott Johnson.

A Tale of Two Communities Response (or lack of) to Rising Crime

As the Crime Rate continues to Rise across the City of Los Angeles, we highlight two contrary examples how Community Stakeholders are coming together (or canceling out) in demanding their fair share of Law Enforcement Resources.

STNC/LAPD Town Hall Meeting Flyer.

 ** Blogger's Note: On the Eve of Good Friday, we bring you two CONTRARY examples regarding how Community Stakeholders are working together (or naught) in mobilizing support for their respective share of Law Enforcement Resources. This evening, the Sunland-Tujunga Neighborhood Council will be hosting a Town Hall Meeting with Foothill Division/Valley Bureau Brass, in a culmination of recent efforts to deal with various issues caused by an influx of Homeless into the community.

Meanwhile withing the confines of the LAPD Hollenbeck Division, the latest meeting of its Community Police Advisory Board was cancelled, this in lieu of the latest tragic death involving Cab Driver Antonio Paz Gonzalez, who was senselessly killed after being robbed. Bluntly, with the "alleged (more below) cancellation" of the latest Hollenbeck CPAB Meeting, Stakeholders who have been subjected to the SECOND HIGHEST rate of increase in violent crime within the City of Los Angeles, have been denied an opportunity (again) to speak out and demand their fair share of Law Enforcement resources ..........., but rest assure, those seeking support for their ABC Licenses ("Micro-Brewery in Boyle Heights, USC) still have CPAB's backing----Scott Johnson.

LAPD Hollenbeck Captain Martin Baeza with CD 14 City Councilman Jose Huizar and CPAB Members.

Hello Community Members, the Hollenbeck Community Police Advisory Board monthly meeting scheduled for Wednesday, March 16, 2016 is canceled and we do apologize for that.  The next meeting will be /Wednesday, April 20th, please be there and bring a friend. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me, Officer Macklin, Community Relations Officer.

Second Term-seeking 39th Assembly District Assemblywoman Patty Lopez, is the recipient of a $7,500 FPPC Fine/Lesson on following Campaign Finance Rules.    

Now 39th AD Assemblywoman Patty Lopez (center) during 2014 Ballot Count.

** Blogger's Note: Its a safe bet that any discerning observer of the 2014 39th Assembly District Contest between then Assemblyman Raul Bocanegra, and now Assemblywoman Patty Lopez, would NOT cite the Campaign of the upstart candidate as an ideal Grass Roots-structured example to emulate ..........., especially in regards to its finances. As the Second Term-seeking Assemblywoman NOW KNOWS (via last week's FPPC ruling) , even the best of intentions in campaigning, are still held accountable as noted below.

Thus, we can safely keyboard here that the "2018 Tony Villar for Governor Campaign" is nearly bloggin upon us. But with no apologies to "Team Tony", we must ponder whether a "Failure Politico" is fit to govern "The Greece on the Pacific (formerly The Golden State)" if he can't properly identify an ISIS-inspired Terrorist Attack as exampled below from his Twitter Account yesterday.

CD 1 Staffer Fredy Ceja.

 ** Blogger's Note: Pardon us as we bloggin shake our heads at yet another disclosure of "Drinking and Driving Issues" among City Council Staff (especially when one is caught for the FOURTH time since 2003). Unlike a certain CD 14 Officeholder who admitted to having A DRINK before rear-ending a former Huntington Park Police Officer (and benefiting from a sobering, two-hour siesta in the back seat of a LAPD Squad Car ......, allegedly), both CD 1 City Councilman Gil Cedillo Staffer Fredy Ceja and CD 8 City Councilman Marqueece Harris-Dawson Staffer Fredy Torres (driving a Cit Vehicle), spent some quality weekend time in LAPD's new Downtown Glasshouse. For Ceja, who was involve in a accident with a MTA Bus, this was his FOURTH alcohol-related, driving episode since 2003. One longtime City Hall Observer noted that Ceja's Arrest is sure to prompt questions regarding his employment by Councilman Cedillo, in lieu of the fact that all Council Staffers are subjected to a background check, in which any discriminating details uncovered, are shared with the Officeholders.

HOT Morning Briefs on the Los Angeles Political Machine for Monday

As various Los Angeles Politicos led by Mayor Eric Garcetti play Catch Up in mitigating the Environmental Hazards originating from the now-shuttered Exide Battery Plant, we ask "State Senate President Pro Tem Kevin De Leon the First", what, if any of his requested "60 Million Dollars, City of Vernon Environmental Reparation/Good Neighbor Fund" has been allocated to help constituents affected by Vernon-based factory.

** Great Monday morning from the northern boundaries of the "Boyle Heights Ranch" as a "Saturday of Neighborly Outreach" led by Mayor Eric Garcetti, in promoting services to help mitigate the environmental damages of the shuttered Exide Battery Plant, garnered a large turnout ........., and media attention.

As members of the Los Angeles Political Machine (especially those representing the communities surrounding the shuttered City of Vernon Factory) engage in an expensive, tardy response to the decades-long environmental damages, we pause to ponder what became of a certain, City of Vernon-financed "$60 Million Dollars Environmental Reparations/Good Neighbor Fund", demanded by the now "State Senate President Pro Tem Kevin De Leon the First", in return for supporting the exclusive city's continuing incorporation.

From a 2011 Mayor Sam Blog Post, we noted that the $60 Million Dollars Fund, was nothing more that a payoff to the now State Senate Leader for his support of the industrial enclave against the efforts of then Assembly Speaker John Perez to abolish the ethically-challenged city, as noted below.

The EGP reported that The city council late last week unanimously approved the reform package that includes increasing accountability and transparency, doubling the size of the city's electorate, and reparation payments to surrounding communities that have "born the brunt" of "Vernon's shortsightedness." They agreed to give $5 million each to the Hazard Park Youth Armory in Boyle Heights and to renovate Salt Lake Park in the city of Huntington Park. Another $50 million will be spent over the next ten years on services for the surrounding community as part of a "good neighbors program." (** $60 Million Dollar Shakedown by Senator De Leon?)

In hindsight, we wonder whether the gift-loving, San Diego-native would care to comment if a funded, One Stop Center for constituents affected by Exide, should of been paramount in being created via allocations from the Vernon proceeds ..........., instead of some dubious desires of a campaign-supporting, Connected Non-Profit?

** We are expecting a BIG ANNOUNCEMENT from the backers of he Neighborhood Integrity Initiative in the coming days. The Cabal of Organize Labor and Developers who are seeking to counter the growing momentum of the Grass Roots-inspired response to ceaseless, rampant over-development, have been battling among themselves in crafting a counter initiative that would appear on the November, 2016 Ballot.

Oops!! Michael "MEAT/Chief Parker" Trujillo gets "BERNed" ........, again

On the morning after the latest "Abuela Hillary Campaign Debacle" in Michigan, we are seeking to confirm bloggin rumors that former Mayor Sam Blogger, turned rarely successful Campaign Consultant/Manager, Michael "MEAT/Chief Parker" Trujillo, has been admitted to the "Political BERNed Wing" of the Grossman Burn Center (Tongue in Cheek). 

 Oops!! I BERNed myself ..........., again.

** Blogger's (LMAO!!) Note: We pause our normal bloggin coverage on the ceaseless follies of the Los Angeles Political Machine, to bring you this BREAKING NEWS regarding our former Mayor Sam Blogger, turned rarely successful Campaign Consultant/Manager, Michael "MEAT/Chief Parker" Trujillo.

 "MEAT/Chief Parker" was last seen on Facebook about 15 hours ago, stating the following regarding the early results from the "Michigan Collectivist/Dependentcrat Primary".

Hillary Clinton is down 1.5% in Michigan right now with 25% of the vote in -- she wins by double digits once all the votes are counted.

For those "MEAT/Abuela Hillary Davidians". who turned off their Social Media accounts in assurance that their future "Abuela Patronage Source" was going to beat down the BERN, based upon "MEAT/Chief Parker's" pronouncement ............, you got BERNed, again.

Meanwhile, we are trying to ascertain whether our former Bloggin Colleague has been admitted (again) into the "Political BERNed Wing" of the renowned Grossman Burn Center in the San Fernando Valley.

The Home of the BERNed Treatment Center (allegedly).

We understand that the standard treatment for being BERNed at the Polling Place on Election Day, is the "Collectivist/Dependentcrat Party Establishment-supported", matching (plus some) dosage of Super Delegates, to cleanse the vote (or voters) afflicted by the BERN (with possible, adverse side-affects to the democratic process).

Monday's Wet Dripping Briefs on the Los Angeles Political Machine

As the various local Taxi Cab Companies seek to blunt the Uber encroachment into their once, exclusive Fare Base, the noted Marco Soto (aka. the husband of Francine Godoy) and his Yellow Cab employer, seeks to find the mysterious hacker responsible for disrupting its phone lines. 

Marco Soto (left), Ed Headington (ecnter) and CD 14 City Councilman Jose Huizar (right).

** These are not the best of times for the Taxi Cab Community as Uber takes a big bite into its once, exclusive Fare Base. Thus, any disruption of business is of profound concern as witnessed by the recent (starting February 24), alleged Hacking for Ransom Scheme, involving Yellow Cab's
Customer Service Phone Lines.

As noted by Yellow Cab's Vice President of Marketing and Public Affairs (also known as the Husband of former CD 14 City Councilman Jose Huizar's Deputy Chief of Staff Francine Godoy), customer data was not compromise in the alleged "Hacking for Ransom Scheme".

Customer data doesn’t appear to have been compromised in the attack, spokesman Marco Soto said. It’s unclear who’s behind the ongoing digital attack, but Gardena-based L.A. Yellow Cab has been asked to pay an unspecified ransom to stop it.  

While not attempting to minimize the serious nature of the alleged incident, we cannot help ourselves in comparing the Yellow Cab "Hacking for Ransom" mystery, to the on-going speculation regarding the employment status of his now wife .........., and former Sexual Harassment Litigant Francine Godoy.

A discerning observer could make a comparison that the Hack for Ransom Scheme, has similarities with Godoy's Sexual Harassment allegations, as both are (or were) alleged attempts to extort a monetary (or gainful employment) return.

But in the interim, we can only speculate (below) who was responsible for this latest Hacking for Ransom Scheme.

BTW Marco, your Wife's former Boss may take issue with this recent Contribution to his "Northeast LA Political Rival" ........, 10/22/15  L.A. Taxi Cooperative, Inc. DBA Yellow Cab  address redacted Gardena , CA   90249  Other (Non-Individual)     $700.00 $700.00  $0.00 to

A Hacker for Ransom ........, or a certain, now Bureau of Sanitation Employee?

** We bring this Pronouncement of Spin on CD 14 City Councilman Jose Huizar's latest support of DWP/IBEW-blessed Rate Increases via the Officeholder's ..............., El Sereno Office Staffer Julio Torres (please note that the Princeton Graduate's staffers are compensated nicely for shielding their Boss from discerning constituent commentary).

Julio Torres  from El Sereno Central West  8h ago Under the water rate plan, the average customer will see a 4.76 percent annual increase, amounting to an additional $3 per month. A monthly bill of $57.79 for the typical residential water user would  increase to an average rate of $72.90 at the end of the five- year period, according to an example in a staff report.With the electricity rate increases, the typical single-family household in Los Angeles could see monthly electricity bills go up a total of $12 over five years.Utility officials say the rate increases are necessary to upgrade aging water pipes and make energy use more reliable and meet environmental mandates.I'm sure CD1 (** who's Councilman voted NO regarding the increases) residents would pay a few bucks more in order to have their water pipes replaced. CD14 water pipes are being replaced in our district now before more water main breaks happen.
