Morning Briefs on a Fear-mongering Political Machine for Friday the 13th

 Its time to DENOUNCE the pandering hypocrisy of LA County Board of Supervisors Sheila Kuehl and Hilda Solis, who continue to engage in "Trumped-up Fear-mongering", while remaining SILENT regarding recent documented Acts of Hate and repugnant attempts of Cultural/Ethnic Cleansing ....., by a certain, "Non-White Racial Group".

 LA County Board of Supervisor Hilda Solis espousing "Trumped-up Fear mongering".

** Blogger's Notes: On this Friday the 13th before the Inauguration of a certain Republican President-Elect next week, LA County Board of Supervisors Hilda Solis, Sheila Kuehl (aka. "Minister of Propaganda Zelda Goebbels"), in cooperation with certain organizations have issued a Directive to be on the watch for a rise in Hate Crimes (via "Jock-booted Trumpsters"?). Indeed, 2015 saw a rise in Hate Crimes in Los Angeles County with African-Americans being targeted in 58% of the cases according to the Daily News. But while Supervisor Solis and the "Minister of Propaganda Zelda Goebbels", engage in "Trumped-Up Fear-mongering", with insinuations that the Campaign rhetoric of President-Elect Trump is the reason for the rise in Acts of Hate, the TRUE facts, as documented below, are that a certain, "Non White Racial Group" is the responsible party-----Scott Johnson.

"F_ _ _ White Art", as spray-painted on an alleged, White-owned Boyle Heights Art Gallery.

From Highland Park, through Elysian Valley, to Boyle Heights, the alleged ramifications of Gentrification has motivated passionate discussions regarding the future "identity" of communities. In Boyle Heights, the Push Back against Communal Change has devolved into overt Acts of Racial Targeting as the picture above documents, LAPD is currently investigating the explicated content as a Hate Crime.  

An alleged "Gentrification Fence (as insinuated by, NOW Congressional Candidate Maria Cabildo)" installed by a White, Boyle Heights Homeowner.

Former East Los Angeles Community Corporation (ELACC) Co-founder, NOW Congressional Candidate Maria Cabildo was expose for her "thoughts" regarding the fence pictured above. The gentrification fence is very horizontal, ubiquitous in Echo Park, but a new comer to #boyleheights I believe that this is the first such fence in #boyleheights. As luck would have it, I drive past it every single day as I travel down … to see my ailing Pops. This fence says, ‘i like the housing stock here but my neighbors are not people I want to interact with (did RACE play a factor?).’ Fences in Boyle Heights are porous.” 

The Firebombings of African-American Families within the Ramona Gardens Housing Development.

Many within the Los Angeles Political Establishment have remain/were SILENT when African-American Families were targets of multiple Firebombing Attacks within the Ramona Gardens Housing Projects. Its been a open secret for decades that Latino Street Gangs and their African-American counterparts, have sought to keep Public Housing segregated in respective areas of control. In 2015, African-Americans where the targets of 58% of all Hate Crimes reported in LA County, mostly via Latino Street Gangs.

Video from a Protest of Boyle Heights Art Gallerys,that espoused Cultural and Ethnic Cleansing.

We ponder if Supervisor Solis and "Minister of Propaganda Zelda Goebbel's" "Trumped-up Fear-monging" of pending "Jock-booted Trumpster Hate Crimes", would mirrored what has TAKEN PLACE in Boyle Heights where street protests sought to intimidate Art Gallery Owners (and Whites), with chants of "GET THE FUCK OUT OF BOYLE HEIGHTS". We dare say if a "White Mob" was marching in a Latino Neighborhood, chanting and racial profiling in seeking to expunge a certain ethnic group, the US Justice Department, FBI, District Attorneys Office ......., along with Supervisors Solis and Kuehl, would be DEMANDING Hate Crime Prosecutions.  

KCBS/KCAL Report on Hate Crime Investigation involving the Boyle Heights Arts District.

Lastly, we invite Supervisors Solis and Kuehl to find the HATE in the video above as those who oppose Gentrification in Boyle Heights, are open in expressing their thoughts about integration of other ethnic groups ........, and maybe cease in exploiting the fears of those seeking a better life, for self-serving Political Motivations----Scott Johnson in Boyle Heights.

Boyle Heights ELACC Cabildo joins CROWDED 34th Congressional District Candidate Pool

Former East Los Angeles Community Corporation (ELACC) Executive Director, LA County Supervisor Hilda Solis Chief of Staff and Mayor Eric Garcetti-appointed Planning Commissioner Maria Cabildo, has becomes the TWELFTH Candidate seeking to replace pending California Attorney General (but still) Congressman Xavier Becerra.

Former State Senator Ron Calderon with, NOW, 34th Congressional District Candidate Maria Cabildo.

** Blogger's Note: If there was ever an anointed QUEEN of the numerous Boyle Heights "Connected Non-Profits/Community-based Organizations (CBOs)", it would be none other than the Founder and President of ELACC Maria Cabildo. Her energy in transforming ELACC into THEE "Connected Non-Profit" of Boyle Heights, is allegedly match by a Political Ambition that had her rumored to be a future CD-14 City Council Candidate. But then when you have a chance to become "Congresswoman Cabildo", dreams of a future Third Floor Office at 200 Spring Street can wait ----Scott Johnson.

Mayor Sam's First EXCLUSIVE Female Politico HOT Briefs for Monday

With an alleged, certain OVERHEATED, coughing Female Democratic Presidential Candidate (on a breezy 75 degree day in New York City), as our inspiration, we PROUDLY proclaim our bloggin Gender Equality/Neutrality, in presenting thee first EXCLUSIVE, Female Politico Hot Briefs (noting the questionable political follies of our Sisters of Interest) for Monday. \

** Blogger's Disclaimer: The following is simply a bloggin exercise in granting equal access to ALL sub-groups of crony Politicos within the Los Angeles Political Machine .........., to our sardonic, discerning brand of political commentary. Unlike some within the Northeast San Fernando Valley Democratic Machine (especially Rosemary Jenkins), we endorse the right of ALL woman (including Immigrants such as Assemblywoman Patty Lopez) to seek (or retain) Political Office ........, and reserve the ability to deconstruct the political motives of those, who become mere tools of an increasingly, crony-exclusive Political Machine, as noted below----Scott Johnson.   

CD 6 City Councilwoman Nury Martinez celebrate (Democratic) Women Equality Day with fellow Northeast San Fernando Valley Political Sisters Monica Rodriguez and Wendy Greuel.

** Any objective, discerning political observer (and inspiring Political Candidate) in the Northeast San Fernando Valley (NSFV), should be able to ascertain the growing backlash against a Political Machine, that is currently under Federal Investigation, which may have prompted CD 7 City Councilman Felipe Fuentes to move up his "Council Resignation to Lobbyist Riches Date". That stated, we must STRONGLY question why former Board of Public Works Vice-President, turn CD 7 City Council Candidate Monica Rodriguez, would embrace the endorsement of the likes of  NSFV Machine Member CD 6 City Councilwoman Nury Martinez? From Rodriguez Campaign Website. 

“Councilwoman Nury Martinez has been an outstanding leader and I look forward to collaborating on the Council to advocate for our Northeast Valley districts.  As the only elected woman out of eighteen elected officials at City Hall, Councilwoman Martinez has been a champion not only for her district, but for families and children throughout the City,” said Monica Rodriguez.  “Our campaign is stronger thanks to Councilwoman Martinez’s support, and I look forward to joining her on the Council, advocating for the Northeast Valley’s fair share and putting our residents and families first.”

Maybe Nury can teach Monica the Campaign Money Laundry Practice of having Staffers hand out $20, $10 and $5 Dollar Bills to Family Members ........, for Public-financed Matching Funds Contributions?

Morning Briefs on the Los Angeles Political Machine for Tuesday

Its never to early to start speculating on those who would like to succeed CD 14 City Councilman Jose Huizar in 2020 (or earlier).

Former East Los Angeles Community Corp (ELACC) President, now LA County Board of Supervisor Hilda Solis Chief of Staff Maria Cabildo ......, with an Indicted Politico. 

The Power of Political Ambition.

Only in Council District 14, can we start speculating on who will replace the "Dear Charro, Princeton Graduate", even before he is sworn in for his last "Downtown Bought", extended last term.

One person who is already garnering attention is former ELACC President and noted anti-gentrification figure Maria Cabildo, who recently was named Chief of Staff to new LA County Board of Supervisor Hilda Solis.

Cabildo, who resides in Eagle Rock, was an ardent Councilman Huizar supporter during the last election proceedings and with the self-noting Princeton Graduate, now secure in a final term, the career change for Cabildo, is being seen as a political resume enhancer for a possible 2020 CD 14 Campaign.

** Its been awhile since Southwest Voter Education Voter Registration Project's Antonio Gonzalez merited bloggin interest. In the early days of this blog, the voting registration exploits of the husband of ex LA County Board of Supervisor Gloria Molina's Chief of Staff Alma Martinez, were all the rage among the supporters of then Mayor James "Poopy" Hahn. Now in 2015, Gonzalez is reaching back into his voter outreach bag of tricks, by offering a $25,000 Prize to a lucky LAUSD District Five voter, in an attempt to foster higher Election Day turnout ........, for Charter Schools-supported candidate Ref Rodriguez.

** When was the last time we checked in on the cyber astro-turf outpost of the political fanatics known as "Gatto Truthers"? With the "Infant Assemblyman", turned "Slobo Mikey", busy mulling over his pending 2016 State Senate Campaign defeat, by planning a possible 2018 Lt. Governor quest, his devoted cyber trolls found time to opine on the recent CD 4 Elections, which we are so glad to share .........., The big surprise in CD 4 was the showing of Steve Veres who many local Dems including these humble bloggers were pulling for since he got the Democratic Party endorsement with an impressive showing and lots of grassroots support.  Veres underperformed and we are not sure why since he had strong support from Senate Speaker Kevin Deleon; maybe he did not have the right validators in other parts of the district but of course that is just conjecture. 

Your thoughts ..............
