ARROGANCE is Inappropriate - To our Elected, Appointed, Hired, and Donor-for-hire government representative

 


JULY 21, 2021

ARROGANCE is seen in our city-county-school-state elected and appointed, hired, donor-for-hire government representatives.

Some of you are career-minded - CIVIL SERVICE employees.  You work to/for retirement.

OPEN MEMO                  MILWAUKEE, WI


JULY 20, 2021



TO 
ALDERWOMAN MARINA DIMITRIJEVIC, CHAIR
PUBLIC SAFETY & HEALTH COMMITTEE

FROM
MARY GLASS - CHIEF VISIONARY OFFICER
MPA-LLC

RE
TRUSTWORTHINESS AND RECENT SNUB OF BARRETT & KIRSTEN JOHNSON

Chairwoman Dimitrijevic:

This is a time-sensitive ReQUEST FOR A RESPONSE from you on behalf of the legitimacy of our Public Safety & Health Committee for REISSUING THE MASK IN MILWAUKEE.

According to Tom Barrett Mayor in today's Briefing regarding the COVID VIRUS, a question was asked regarding the MASK RETURNING.  Tom Barrett threw the ball in your court.  

I remember you having to call a special meeting because Barrett "SNUBBED" YOUR OFFICE AND OUR SAFETY AND HEALTH COMMITTEE.

I ask for clarity and GOOD STANDING from you, your committee, and BARRETT.

BUCKS CRAZY
TOM BARRETT AND DAVID CROWLEY, COUNTY EXECUTIVE, HAVE FAILED THE CONSTITUENTS AND DISRESPECTED THOSE THEY TOOK AN "OATH OF SAFETY" TO SERVE.  

THEIR OATH WAS NOT TO BRING A TROPHY HERE TO MILWAUKEE AT THE EXPENSE OF EXPOSING OUR CITY TO THE "DELTA VARIANT".  NO, SIR.  

THIS IS A RICH CONGLOMERATE THAT HAS A "30-YEAR" GIFT FROM "IT'S CHEAPER TO KEEP THEM".  THE COMMON COUNCIL WAS IN ON THIS FLEECING OF MILWAUKEE TAXPAYERS.

THESE FOLKS HAVE INSIDE/OUTSIDE FANFARE THAT HAS BROUGHT 20-65K FOLKS INSIDE FISERV FORUM AND OUTSIDE FORUM WITHOUT MANDATE OF MASKING".

KIRSTEN JOHNSON WAS ASKED ABOUT THE SPREAD AND SHE TOOK THE COMMENT UNDER BREATH ABOUT THE HUGE GATHERINGS WITH "NO MASK".  HER ANSWER WAS SHE HAD NO EVIDENCE - AND, THAT IT TAKES ABOUT 2 WEEKS TO SHOW EVIDENCE.  YES.  WE WILL HAVE SPREAD.

TODAY, Dr. Weston, Medical College contact AT BRIEFING, said that the Delta Variant had increased 100%,  we have an 83% Delta Variant data rate IN WI.

So while, David Crowley-Milwaukee County Executive, Tom Barrett-Mayor of the city of Milwaukee, and Kirsten Johnson, Commissioner of Milwaukee Health Department tap dance to the success of the BUCKS, they have said, "Be damn" to Milwaukeeans.  They are GO BUCKS.  GO BUCKS CRAZY.
They are also wearing Bucks wear - conflict of interest. 

They are failing to act responsibly.  THEY HAVE ALLOWED THINGS TO GO HOG WILD.

May I have a right-back response as to your role - Public Safety and Health Committee?

WE, THE PEOPLE WILL NOT FORGET.

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.”

                               TENT CITY MILWAUKEE

"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.

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.

Speak Out - We Recognize GOOD and BAD STANDING in Spending American Rescue Funds without the fingerprint of the People and pandemic

 






JULY 16, 2021

CITY OF MILWAUKEE || The American Rescue Plan will take us to an opportunity of STRUCTURING and REFRAMING the fiscal layout to the 15 Districts of the city of Milwaukee, with a laser-focus on African Americans, other People of Color, and the Work Challenged core constituents.

Milwaukee Professionals Association LLC will spearhead daily due diligence for reporting to Milwaukeeans - the People - the Electorate.  The first two-year monitoring (2021-2022) for growth and accountability seeks the office first and foremost from the Lady with the white hair, Secretary of Treasury, Janet Yellin.

Due to by-design barriers of DISCRIMINATION, segregation, high unemployment/high under-employment, lack of health access, health crises, lack tracking and due diligence of the city of Milwaukee Health Department to outreach to African Americans, other People of Color and vulnerable populations, historic public policy restraints of transportation in Milwaukee, corruption in the use of federal funding, and elected, appointed, hired, donor for hire government representatives pitting People of Color against each other, MPA-LLC is proud to help ensure that those at the federal level are apprised for compliance and "worthy spending" of the American Rescue Plan.

We already see the mice beginning to nibble around the edges thinking they are privileged to reward certain cronies BUT HAVE FAILED to speak sufficiently with the head of the organization chart - The Electorate.

To automatically assign Employ programs $3.8 million.

To "prioritize" and "take American Rescue funds" in line with not in good standing cabinet members/departments, monopoly-oligopoly Caucasian cronies, and outliers.

We note self-proclaimed members of the Common Council seeking personal funding they call "DISTRICT FUNDING"

"To Mayor Tom Barrett and each member of the Common Council of Milwaukee, you MUST talk with and get the approval of the Core Constituents of Milwaukee, otherwise, you are out-of-order - not in good standing", said Mary Glass, Chief Visionary Officer, Milwaukee Professionals Association LLC.  MPA-LLC is based in Milwaukee, independent and represents public policy for Milwaukeeans - especially African Americans, other People of Color, Homeless, and Work Challenged.

Mary Glass, the Founder, brings to the table 50 years of hands-on research, outreach for educating the public, leadership, residential and commercial outreach, arguing the status quo, taking the hard decision to SPEAK OUT, and call a spade, a spade.  It is her promise to the People.

PROTECTION

The executive, legislative and judicial branches are responsible for the protection of the Electorate.

It is the Office of City Clerk that we have selected to be the "City Hall Recordkeepers" for the People during the process and procedures of the American Rescue Plan - about 6 years.


Jim Owczarski     - City Clerk

The City of Milwaukee Organization Chart and Census Map is to help the citizenry guide the legislative sponsors of the APPORTIONMENT Resolution and each stakeholder to be apprised of his/her role in the use of ALL federal funding - i.e., CARES, PPE, CDBG, HOUSING, TRANSPORTATION, EMPLOYMENT, and COVID-19 PANDEMIC, especially the American Rescue Plan.


=================
City Clerk Jim Owczarski and Inspector General Ronda Kohleim will be called upon for files, resolutions-bills-laws, and appropriateness of behavior of the Officers of the city of Milwaukee.  The information will be used for "evaluation" of behavior/use of the American Rescue Plan and adjoining funds like the CARES funding.

Milwaukeeans will pay over half-million-dollars on Morales lawsuit


                                                              ALPHONSO MORALES

 7-14-21


MILWAUKEE || EX-CHIEF OF POLICE  || READ UP.  READ UP.

$626K SETTLEMENT

The proposed final deal for the settlement of ex-chief of Police Alphonso Morales is on the table for final approval of the full common council on July 27, 2021.

IF THERE IS NO APPROVAL - Alphonso Morales is reinstated as the Chief of Police of the city of Milwaukee on August 1, 2021. 

The money total proposed is $500,000 for Morales and $126,000 for his attorney.

It sounds like the funds to pay for the settlement payment have not been thoroughly decided.  The funds usually come from a contingency fund.

NOTE


Cade Law Firm was hired by the city of Milwaukee to handle the conflict of interest details of the city attorney's office.

Tom Barrett, Mayor and Ashanti Hamilton, Alderman District 1 and Chair - The Judiciary and Legislation Committee are familiar with the case.  They both have law degrees.

 ================================

READ THE POINTS FROM THIS ARTICLE FOR INSIGHT INTO THE CASE.

For more info, ask Tom Barrett, Mayor @ 414.286.2200

Ashanti Hamilton, Alderman District 1 @ 414.286.2221.

============

The Fire and Police Commission has work to do to settle the dust in and around the reputation and decision-making of its group.  Given the NEW composition, the election of the chair and vice-chair are in order.

The stench of conflict with members, police department, NEW city attorney, carry-over city attorney staff, human relations office, mayor's office, common council, etc. weigh heavily in this over half-million-dollar lawsuit settlement.

The leadership of the Fire and Police Commission, which includes Leon Todd III, Executive Director, must provide a NEW slate with clear and accurate details of their worthiness for the stakeholders.  Working with the office of City Attorney Tearmon Spencer is mandatory.

It would help if the Core Constituents were informed about the intersectionality of the hiring of Cade Law firm for the Morales lawsuit.

JULY 1, 2021 – 9:15 pm Deadline

 

CITY OF MILWAUKEE || Core Constituents/Electorate at the top of the City of Milwaukee Organization Chart live in the 96.8 square miles radius and work, raise their family, go to MPS public schools, create small neighborhood businesses, and VOTE.

 

The American Rescue Plan delivered by the BIDEN/HARRIS administration is a “life-line” for Infrastructure change and it demands that your finger/footprint is on its spending.

 

It is the JUNETEENTH life-line message delivered FOR all in 2021.

 

It comes with $394 million for Milwaukee with ½ - $197 million in 2021 and ½ - $197 million in 2022.  You must earn this opportunity by getting involved and choosing for you and your neighbors of the 15 districts.

 

It comes with health care and the COVID-19 Pandemic DELIVERANCE.  Therefore, each of us will do our part and get VACCINATED.  

 

DO NOT allow this one-time opportunity to pass without you staking-your-claim by calling, sending texts, sending emails, sending faxes, sharing Zoom meetings, church, and neighborhood contacts.  By completing surveys of substance. 

 

This money is for Infrastructure CHANGES.  BIG MONEY calls for BIG IDEAS that will put us in the quality of life and economic development wealth-building pathway.

 

Tom Barrett has BIG TICKET spending that needs your scrutiny.  The Common Council has asked for $1 million per district.  You ask both the executive and legislative branches to give specifics of WHAT FOR.  Request specifics in the media for your review.  This is not automatic.  You need to give your OK.  Let’s GO.
