HOT Morning Briefs on the Los Angeles Political Machine for Monday

The once anti-establishment darling of the Los Angeles City Council, CD 4's David Ryu, is exposed by the Los Angeles Times in using his "power of office" to block a Bernie Sanders Rally at the city-owned Greek Theater, while a Fundraiser/Concert for his endorsed candidate Hillary Clinton, takes place tonight at the same location.  

Call CD 4 City Councilman David Ryu at (213) 473-7004 and inquire why he allegedly breached ethical standards in blocking the Bernie Sanders Campaign use of the Greek Theater.

** On the eve of the California Primary Elections, a once anti-establishment underdog, now CD 4 City Councilman David Ryu, has sadly shown his inner-establishment persona, when it comes to using his "power of office" to block a campaign event for the Anti-Establishment Democratic Presidential Candidate Bernie Sanders (allegedly). In a Saturday LA Times David Zahniser missive, the Hillary endorsing CD 4 Officeholder, is outed for interfering/obstructing negotiation between the city staff operators of the Greek Theater and the Sanders Campaign, regarding a proposed event at the location. According to the Sanders Campaign, Councilman Ryu's Office unethical meddling caused the proposed Saturday event at the Greek, to be relocated to the Coliseum .........., where close to 15,000 people indulge in "The Berning Man" festivities.

46th District Assemblyman Adrin Nazarian.

The out-going 43rd District Infant Assemblyman Lil Mikey Gatto.

** As the brief political career of an Infant Assemblyman, turned racial cleanser "Slobo Mikey" Gatto nears its appointed, termed-out sunset, the old racially-tinged habits of finding blame (especially within his Armenian constituents), spilled out onto the Floor of the Legislature last week. According to the Sacramento Bee (with video link), the former "Silver Lake, Stay at Home Officeholder" was his petulant self in attacking 46th District Assemblyman (and former Paul Krekorian staffer) Adrin Nazarian for lying regarding verbiage within a Bill regarding screening of rideshare (Uber) drivers, Nazarian, who is backing the main challenger to Gatto's endorsed candidate, took umbrage to his character being besmirched ........, to be continued.

USC President Max Nikias.

USC Community Outreach Employee Zul Surani.

** Memo to USC President Max Nikias and Board of Trustees, please consider drafting a directive to your community outreach employees about the pratfalls of becoming involve in communal politics (ie. Neighborhood Council Elections). Last Wednesday, Zul Surani was seen engaging in the electing of the new LA-32 NC Executive Committee, supporting those favored by out-going President Marleen Fonseca (formerly Terminated LAPD Employee "Marleen Caudillo"). Its blatantly obvious that there are those within your employment that have not learn the lesson of David Galaviz, who was much reviled (and rewarded) for exploiting the Youth Vote in Lincoln Heights for your Universities (and his) interest. Thus President Nikias, we STRONGLY recommend that your staff remain impartial in engaging ALL community members in the spirit of truthful Openness and Transparency and not seek out those who will sell out their neighbors for a "consulting check". BTW, please have Zul work on fixing the "Restroom Issue at Hazard Park", oriinating from your "Mission Accomplish Moment/Campaign Photo Op for Jose Huizar .........., to be continued.

On Deadline Morning Briefs for Hump Day

We are working with CD 14 Campaign Insiders (from which candidate we can't say) on a major Exclusive that will appear on Monday.

What information does our "contact" have for us today?

** Just when you thought "The Old Gray Collectivist Hag on Spring Street" (aka LA Times) had regain something called "Creditability" for its excellent Editorial on the Lavish Pay of the Los Angeles City Clowncil Central Committee, they promptly forfeited, with its endorsement for re-election of reigning Strongman CD 8 City Clowncilman Herman "Mini Amin" Wesson.

** Once again, the Money Interest behind the IE Committees supporting CD 4 City Council Candidate Steve Veres and CD 6 City Councilwoman Nury Martinez, are being shy about who is really bankrolling their over-inflated (allegedly) mailers produced by "Private Citizen/Campaign Consultant" John Shallman.

** HAHAHAHAHA!! Nothing like sharing a morning laugh at the expense of out-going CD 4 City Clowncilman Tom LaBonge. This because of the disclosure by City Attorney Mike Feuer that his attempt to overturn the contract recommendation of the Department of Recreation & Parks regarding the supposed new Greek Theater Contract with Live Nation, could have dire legal ramifications.

A Morning Brief on the Greek Theater Political Intrigue for Wednesday

As the politically-charged drama of who will become the City of Los Angeles Recreation & Parks-owned Greek Theater Operator, heads to the full City Clowncil Central Committee for a final determination, CD 15 City Councilman Joe Buscaino is the lone vote of reason in supporting the recommendations of Recreation and Parks Management.

Again, Clowncilman LaBonge (and three other Clowncil Colleagues) disrespects Recreation & Parks Management recommendations on a Griffith Park Icon.
