BREAKING NEWS!! Assemblyman Matt "Da-PERV-neh" to Resign

Former "Shermanator (Congressman Brad Sherman Staffer)", turned Assemblyman Matt "Da-PERV-neh", announces his Resignation from the California Legislator, affected at the end of the Month.

Another "Shermanator" announces his intentions to walk away from Public Office.

** Blogger's Notes: Surprise, surprise (NAUGHT), another San Fernando Valley State Democrat Officeholder of ILL-REPUTE, has announced his RESIGNATION. 

West San Fernando Valley Assemblyman Matt "Da-PERV-neh", joins former Northeast San Fernando Valley Assemblyman Raul "PERVY-negra", in cutting short their appointed term in office ......., after MULTIPLE allegations of Sexual Harassment/Inappropriate Conduct, as reported by the Sacramento Bee.

The Los Angeles Democrat was accused Monday of pushing Sacramento lobbyist Pamela Lopez into a bathroom at a Las Vegas hotel last year and masturbating in front of her. Jessica Yas Barker, a former employee who worked under Dababneh in U.S. Rep. Brad Sherman’s district office, said he created a hostile work environment full of sexual and derogatory remarks. Dababneh denies the allegations. In an interview, he said he took the charges personally and was leaving office to focus on clearing his name. He added that he did not feel pressured to resign, but said the claims against him had knocked him off his feet. After spending more time with his family this week, he said, he realized that “the passion to serve in a public capacity isn’t there” and “I’m ready for a change in my life.”

Can you say D-E-N-I-A-L? 

What is NOT in denial, is the fact that soon-to-be EX Assemblyman Da-PERV-neh's "extra-curricular conduct", was a subject of speculation (and concern) by those within local Democratic circles, from the VERY beginning of his Officeholder tenure, as reported previously here at Mayor Sam.

We should note that the OFFICIAL HAZER of Assemblyman Matt Dababneh (and fellow SHERMANATOR), announced the TERMINATION of his 2018 State Treasurer Campaign two days ago-----Scott Johnson.

HOT Briefs on the Los Angeles Political Machine (and Beyond) for Monday, 12-4-17

The recent sale (and slashing of staff positions) at the LA Weekly, is the latest example of a rapidly-changing "State of Journalism" in Los Angeles, as longtime Print Mediums and Cyber Entities are forced to either evolve ..........., or continue to devolve into irrelevancy as "Objectivity in Local Reporting (especially on political issues)" becomes secondary ......., to the Agenda of the Establishment. ** BREAKING NEWS!! Assemblyman Matt Dababneh outed by Lobbyist Pamela Lopez as the "Bathroom Officeholder".  

Is a once "Weekly of Record", now merely a Weed Leaf Directory? 

** Blogger's Notes: With NO apologies to "The Old Gray Hag Resister on Spring Street (aka. Los Angeles Times)", we must declare that the "State of Journalism" in Los Angeles, is now in crisis mode. As the LA Times continues its devolution into a merely a Fishwrap of Disinformation (and alleged UNDERTAKER of Inconvenient News) , the once "LA Weekly of Record", is providing the latest "Guttings for future Wrapping", via the slashing of a majority of Staff Positions at the longtime Culver City Print Entity. There was a recent time, when the local Political Establishment would cringe in waiting for the latest damning Exclusives from the likes of Alan Mittelstaedt (who moved on to the, NOW-defunct City Beat), Jeffery Anderson, Christine Pelisek, Patrick Range McDonald, David Zahniser, Jill Stewart and Hillel Aron, but the recent sale and gutting of staff .........., leaves Aron as the only Staff Writer to lament on a VERY possible "Weed Leaf Directory Future".  The Weekly's tribulations, is the latest saga playing out withing the local Print and Cyber News Community following the Unionization-induced Demise of LAist , the pending sale of the Eastern Group Publications and the CONTROVERSY afflicting the litigious Hews Media Group (as objectively reported by Aron).   

What latest News (involving Sacramento Politicos engaging in Sexual Misconduct) has the LA Times hidden away (again) within its Imploding Catacombs of Subjective Reporting?

BREAKING NOONTIME UPDATE!!: Lobbyist Pamela Lopez reveals Assemblyman Matt Dababneh as the "SITTING OFFICEHOLDER in question regarding her Bathroom Encounter.  

** As we reported on Friday, the "Sacramento Whispering Network" is divulging the alleged IDENTITY of another "SITTING  OFFICEHOLDER" who was the subject of Lobbyist Pamela Lopez's GRAPHIC Bathroom Testimonial. Another Website (with a LEFTIST bent), has gone on the record in naming the Politico .........., but for questionable reasons, as excerpted below.

TGIF Briefs on the Los Angeles Political Machine ........ and beyond

In the wake of the graphic,"Bathroom-based Testimony" from Sacramento K Street Lobbyist Pamela Lopez, regarding Sexual Harassment/Inappropriate Behavior via State Officeholders and Staff, the Mayor Sam Blog has received a reliable TIP on the identity of the "Sitting Officeholder of Interest". 

Sacramento K Street Lobbyist Pamela Lopez testifying before Assembly Sub-Committee on Sexual Harassment. 

** Blogger's Notes: Dreading the whispers .........., we respect the stance of Sacramento K Street Lobbyist Pamela Lopez , who showed GENUINE courage in testifying about her alleged, Bathroom Encounter with a "Sitting Elected Official" last year, in NOT revealing the Identity the Politico involve .........., after all, the Whispering Network is multi-directional. Just by her testifying before the Assembly Sub-committee entrusted with vetting the past indiscretions, and hopefully, the entity that gives birth to needed reforms. Lopez will always be the "FACE (and voice)" that hopefully raises the decibel level of the Whispering Network (that has provided this blog with alleged IDENTITY of Lopez's Harasser), that should not be the recipient of a similar "Retaliation Network" .........., when EXPOSING those engaging in Sexual Harassment/Inappropriate Conduct-----Scott Johnson.

Our Bloggin "Top Ten List" regarding Assemblyman Mike Gatto's "BREAK A RIB HAZING" directed at Colleague Matt Dababneh

We invite your bloggin interaction as we present our "Top Ten Reasons" for Assemblyman "Slabo Mikey" Gatto's "BREAK A RIB HAZING" of fellow former Congressman Brad Sherman Staffer, now Assemblyman Matt Dababneh. 

What was the supposed funny background behind "Slobo Mikey's" "BREAK A RIB HAZING" of the West Valley's newest Assemblyman (by a mere 300 votes)?  

Was "Slobo Mikey's" "BREAK A RIB HAZING" a ritual of Legislature Tradition or do both have a "deeper relationship"?

Boy, a side of Assemblyman "Slobo Mikey" Gatto we never knew!

In all our coverage of a "Infant Assemblyman (prone to infantile behavior)", now all grown up as the "Slobo Mikey" of the California Assembly, we never thought that we would keyboard a missive on the newly disclosed comedic proclivities of the former "Stay at Home Lawmaker".

But with fellow former Congressman Brad Sherman Staffer Matt Dababneh (the newly bloggin bestowed "Mini Gatto" of the Assembly) sworn in as the West San Fernando Valley's 45th Assemblyman, "Slobo Mikey's" sense of humor made an appearance in a supposed Legislated Ritual of Verbal Hazing a new member's first Bill before the Elective Body.

"Slobo Mikey" wasted no time in taking to the microphone and did not beak his own rib in gently hazing "Mini Gatto" with the apparent help of Congressman Sherman's Staff via text.

In reviewing the video of "Slobo Mikey's" comedic utterance, its easy to discern some deeper meaning behind the soon to be State Senate Candidate's (allegedly) "OH! So Gentle, BREAK A RIB" utterance (wink, wink)

Thus, in the spirit of noting "Slobo Mikey's" now known comedic qualities (especially when it deals with a "close" political ally), we barrow from Late Night Host David Letterman's "Top Ten List" in keyboarding our own bloggin version of speculative reasons behind Gatto's "BREAK A RIB" comment.
