READY for the Closeup with $30-$34M from Milwaukee's $394M American Rescue Plan




              L-R:  Wesley Jackson Jr., homeowner, and Tom Barrett, Mayor of Milwaukee

July 18, 2021


MILWAUKEE || Press Conference || on Sunday Morning, July 11, 2021 - one week ago, at the home of Wesley & Juanita Jackson
homeowners on the northwest side of Milwaukee, the mayor of Milwaukee, and a media staff person held a press conference.  
What was the urgency?

What was so urgent for Tom Barrett, Mayor, and Jeff Fleming, Communication Director to visit this family on a Sunday morning to highlight a repair started last year - a repaired roof in 2020 and yet repairs?  Did this interfere with Mr. & Mrs. Wesley Jackson's Sabbath Day? 

"Tom's at it again, with smoke and mirrors and using the African American face for his con game", said Mary Glass, Chief Visionary Officer, Milwaukee Professionals Association LLC.

His smoke and mirrors tactic included Milwaukeeans Wesley and Juanita Jackson, faithful homeowners, and taxpayers for 27 years.  

Wesley Jackson spoke of being blessed by the Lord and was very appreciative of the city stepping in with a program last year (2020) to repair his roof.  He shared how his fixed income inhibited him and his wife from the repairs.  The Jacksons yet have "repairs" in the living room due to the rain damages that must be fixed.

Barrett and Jeff Fleming, Communication Director were at the home of the Jackson on a Sunday morning with a cockamamie backdrop of homeowner Jackson's home while the main reason was to introduce his unauthorized method of taking - "stealing American Rescue Funding - $30-$34 million from the $197 million from the first year of the $394 million allocated to Milwaukee.  Something fishy here.

"I view housing as one of the most pressing issues that the city of Milwaukee faces right now," he said at a news conference.

“This is the first installment of what I plan to have as a multi-year approach, and clearly there are other needs that we have,” Barrett said. “And so part of it is balance.”

"If housing is so much of a priority, where has Tom Barrett's efforts been when it has come to the homeless under the viaduct in 2019 downtown in District 4 - right before his DNC convention that he and Alex  Lasry, Vice President of the Bucks disrespected Milwaukeeans.  Tom and fellow disgraceful elected - Tony Evers, Mandela Barnes, Chris Abele, Gwen Moore, Tammy Baldwin, county Board of Supervisors, and the Common Council to name a few ALLOWED WisDOT to come in with an Eviction notice to kick the homeless out before the "guest came to town".    Why were these folks - encampment/Tent City there in the first place since Tom is so concerned about the homeless"?

The Press Conference was Barrett's way of pre-showcasing the discussions he and his cabinet have come up with to bring on board monopoly-oligopoly Caucasian cronies, outliers, and sell-outs/Oreos.
Sell-out Oreos are African Americans seeking favor and some just following blindly.


ARP Close-Ups
The American Rescue Plan demands the fingerprint/footprint of the citizenry like Wesley and Juanita Jackson.  The funds have specifics and NO-NO spending.

Barrett used the backdrop of an African American senior homeowner on Sunday morning, July 11, 2021, to unveil his this-n-that unauthorized spending of American Rescue funding.  
Barrett has NO shame.

His dismal leadership and unsafe outreach for the COVID-19 Pandemic towards African Americans and other People of Color has been seen in his Tuesday and Thursday Pandemic briefings inept - Fox6 live.

Barrett is too often seen covering for Kirsten Johnson, Commissioner, Milwaukee Health Department - Johnson usually absent - his covering seen to be below expectation of the top city official - mayor.

He and David Crowley, County Executive, have deliberately failed to include African Americans and People of Color journalists for Question & Answers.

Kirsten Johnson was not prepared for this position given its scope and scale.  Also, Johnson came in firing folks - after Dr. Jeanette Kowalik was forced to leave the city - a very bad situation.  Tom's disarray of new staff at the mayor's office was seen to include Jeff Fleming and the chief staff position at the mayor's office was believed part of the problem.
 
Yes.  

Mary Glass, Chief Visionary Officer, Milwaukee Professionals Association says, "the Close Up of Barrett" is smoke and mirrors to gain points against the backlash of his "BUCKS FEVER" but NO real COVID-19 Pandemic focus in Milwaukee, especially for low vaccinations in African American and People of Color neighborhoods - zip codes - especially when the DELTA VARIANT was/is on the increase.  

He can be seen UNTRUSTWORTHY by his ill-preparedness of what he verbally mentioned at the shameless press conference on July 11, 2021. 

"Wesley Jackson, 27-year homeowner - 1994-Present -
was window dressing.  Barrett and Jeff Fleming, Communication Director were at the home of the Jacksons on a Sunday MORNING for the press conference. Something fishy here".

The Press Conference was Barrett's way of pre-showcasing the discussions he and his cabinet have come up with for spending over $34 million of Milwaukee's American Rescue Funds.
