Will the City Council vote on Tuesday?
What was said concerning cap?

Thanks in advance

BUT Christine Essel starts by condemning all sales and alleges they sell to schoolchildren, then states, “The City Attorney who’s backing me, Carmen Trutanich, a supporter of mine, I will work closely with him when I get to City Council to make sure we shut down all illegal facilities.” By “illegal” she clearly means ALL, the same as Trutanich and Cooley.

Don, pls. post the link and circulate ASAP.

What’s the old adage? “Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.” (As I said, ignore Sheftel, ZDogg – who talks in his blog of an alleged citizen’s action committee, which is really a lobby for IBEW/D’Arcy who controls the DWP union (and is intent on ramming through Measure B under a different name via Essel, over citizen ratepayer watchdog groups). Remember, he’s the one who brought us Carmen FALSETanich.

I can’t believe this community has been complacently sitting quiet during this election so far or backing the wrong horse.

She told the SOHA (Sherman Oaks Homeowner Assn.) meeting at the last debate before the election on Nov. 18th that she strongly supports Cooley and Trutanich on this, in so many words. She’s part of their clique all down the line, which is WRONG on this issue, WRONG on the Controller issue, WRONG on AEG. She obviously has no problem with someone who cynically lied to get the community’s support, money and votes as with Chick and many other people and groups. Someone who has accumulated more negative press and anger from the betrayed in a few months in office than any other pol in city history.

Check out the YouTube of CD2 Election Debate/ SOHA, Nov. 18th, in 5 parts (of about 8-10 mins. each, I don’t remember which one has the Trutanich support quote, but you’d do well to post and share it). The whole debate is about 1 hr and WELL worth listening to even if you don’t live or vote in CD2. Trutanich’s allies have declared war on Koretz all down the line and he needs the community’s help.

I don’t know what Krekorian’s position is frankly, but he’s a man of his word and the fact that Essel has $500,000 in Independent Expenditure money for her despite a total lack of experience, and against Krekorian (the bulk from the Police Political League and the IBEW/D’Arcy, against DWP ratepayers) says a lot. As does the fact that Koretz is supporting him while those playing ball with Trutanich are not. Paul needs and DESERVES the help unlike the cynical user Trutanich.

(This may explain why Essel’s been parading around former CD2 candidate/opponent Sheftel, the med cannabis shop/candy shop owner, and why she so actively courted Zuma Dogg: taking a page out of the Trutanich playbook (they both like Cooley are Shallman clients) to dupe the community into thinking they have her support while IN FACT saying in so many words she’s a staunch ally of Trutanich who endorsed her.) No time to lose in posting the video and letting people hear the truth for themselves.
