This is a first. I am dictating using a program called Dragon 10 and I seem to have only had one wrong word typed in this first paragraph.
Noteworthy of the news this week was the coup in Roselle New Jersey where by a vote of four to two the Council voted to eliminate the chief financial officer position held by Adrian Mapp, and use the services of a part-timer supplied by Roselle Park. The Mayor of Roselle has been in political conflict with the Union County Democratic Party. Shades of Honduras or the New York State Senate or the election in Iran where there were more votes cast that were register voters.
The other interesting item was the judge's decision that the First Amendment did not apply to a blogger in protecting her source of information. I believe that this will soon be in the higher courts including the Supreme Court. In the meantime this is a landmark case
Nothing serious today just be careful and have a safe and happy fourth of July

This is how the county operates, Doc. They try to destroy an individual's livelihood if he doesn't "go along to get along." The fact that this deal was done without the foreknowledge of the mayor and 2 council members suggests it was done illegally. There are state laws in place for preparing shared services agreements and the Roselle council president ignored them as well as having secret meetings with some councilors and county officials in violation of OPRA laws.
ReplyDeleteAs you know the "Democratic machine" in Union County has gone after others before who dared to cross JG & CD. Hopefully, law suits will follow but this usually takes so long, a person is destroyed financially by the time the suit is settled.
