Fantastic interview by @MelendezSalinas & her #Salinas Underground co-host of Supervisor Candidate @WendyRootAskew.

Wendy was unimpressive. I thought I was listening to a repeat of the movie Valley Girl - it was that light-weight.

Wendy repeatedly passed the buck, through non-

responsive answers to great questions. At one point Salinas Underground asked about the job she thought the county was doing (Askew is @JaneParkerMC's aide) and Wendy went on a long riff about all the challenges the county faces without acknowledging any of the issues

she absolutely knows are affecting the county's functioning.

Askew went on to say that she wants to give a shout out to how well they have been doing at the County because she felt like they were focusing too much on the negative.

sure the one Black woman running had NO support in her Democratic run for this same seat in the primary)

There are zero calories here , on Wendy's part ... "right?"

"I mean, right?" "Right"

There is no meat on this bone.

Let's not kid ourselves, @FelixKSBW - we both know, and we both can prove that the City of Salinas City Attorney is acting as a defacto "board member" of the city council via his advice that is above their competency and while breaching duties to remain counsel for the entity. Image
And the same can be said for Les Girard, and prior to that Charles McKee, because of the manner in which they insert themselves in decision making while hiding behind attorney-client privilege, illegally, attempting to claim public record memorandums they issue our elected are
advices. Their advice, when they breach the (Entity Client >< Attorney ) bubble and give advise illegally, thereby making the work product a public record.

The records will show that Les Girard knew of the Conflict @AdamsSupervisor had by employing Det. Archie Warren's sister

Here is an @latimes article that was Public Relations driven. Mike Kanalakis was sheriff (and a corrupt one at that) and he was in the election fight of his life. Or as Kano saw it, life and death, because Kano LOVED glad-handing and freebies.

I had just put Scott Miller into Image
the 2010 @MCoSheriff's race and Kano, as Sheriff Kanalakis was called, was punishing everyone. Kano was afraid of my truths and what I knew about his past conduct so he largely kept his Miller attacks to political ads making Miller look bizarre. (notice I do that here on Twitter
now as an Ode to Brandon "Thailand" Gesicki's style of politicking. (The one thing Joe Livernois over at @VoicesofBay got wrong is, its Gesicki and Plasha Fielding Will who don't want their names mentioned ever - and Livernois and others cater to them, I don't give a shit)

@B1968Big @TajhaLanier @stevemcshane @kimbleycraig @reym12 Jim Pia is scared. He told me so. We met at the sign installation with all the politicos wanted to take credit. Pretty sure this was long before Kelly McMillin was sued twice for sexual thuggery. We walked back to city hall together and I told him, it’s bad and I told him I had
@B1968Big @TajhaLanier @stevemcshane @kimbleycraig @reym12 gone to the FBI in 2021 after a host of people who were credible in the past, came to me to ask for help in laying out some details. One of them being award winning journalist Royal Calkins.

Jim just said “oh man, I’m a short timer” - meaning he is retiring in a few years. He
@B1968Big @TajhaLanier @stevemcshane @kimbleycraig @reym12 doesn’t want to hear that level of bad news because he is so close to being done. Gunter was corrupt. There is no 1/4 corrupt or 1/2 corrupt. Gunter was provably corrupt. And I liked Joe. We always got along but in his last two years he grew more secretive - then dies on me.

This guy has the intelligence of Kelly McMillin, and there is nothing there but a dude who likes the sound of his own voice.

Fun fact: fmr. @CityofSalinas mayor @CASenCaballero loved Kelly McMillin!

How does MAGA slip in?

It’s shocking the lack of ethics that exists within @SalinasPD.

When I say this I’m talking about leadership and that begins and ends with a Chief.

Kim Craig, @CityofSalinas’ right wing Mayor is outted by her neighbor (quite innocently) as residing in “her” home with
Bobby Richardson, who fits the textbook definition of common law partner under California and federal law on Willow Street in South Salinas.

Craig was so alarmed that this truth was revealed she sent me a threatening letter on City letterhead to no longer speak about her South
Salinas residence. The panic of Craig was inspired by the fact that Craig had just run for Supervisor against Glenn Church and Regina Gage and lost spectacularly BUT Craig used her North Salinas condo to qualify as her domicile for legal purposes even though she was living on

Tell the @ksbw audience how it is that @CityofSalinas Mayor, @kimbleycraig & Salinas councilman @stevemcshane were allowed to direct @SalinasPD resources to a Church function in December, @FelixKSBW?

@MollyMGibbs @TessKenny12 @mcweekly @WorkLight_CIC

@JoshCopitch
* the @CityofSalinas is a legislative body, setting broad policy. Newly hired City Manager Steve Kerrigan would need to sign off on any of this crap.

That’s a scandal. It’s also worthy of a credible DA investigation, @JeanninePacioni.

I’m sure Civil Rights supporter
* @WendyRootAskew would agree.

Wouldn’t you, @supervisoraskew?
