Now, do you want to know what else you won’t see the MI-GOP apparatchik do? You won’t see any within the Party give the Nerd’s mentor, this doddering old Leftist tool, a boot ride out of the Party.
Oh, lookie here at this headline. The Donald sure knows how to make things happen. Within a week’s timeframe Trump, has ’em jumping through hoops on the deplorable treatment of our Veterans with a simple poke at the war zero who screws over anything and anyone for personal gain, and now, the Undocumented Democrats.
The Bee-esS is so thick in our alleged two party system one needs wings to stay above it. Michigan Republicans, which hold every lever of power in Lansing, have sat around with their collective thumbs up their posterior for damn near a half decade on this illegal alien issue.
Luckily for Little Ronna, she has someone who is her mental midget equal. Yes, Brandon, we get the “Mexican immigrants” drift your race hustling, vote buying, MDP/DNC sleaziods parrot because if the gatecrashers voted Conservative, your Party would have the borders sealed tight in a heartbeat.
The ball is now in the Governor’s court, so to speak. The report is not public yet, but the press release is out. It only took the State independent review team 18 calendar days to figure out what everyone knows: Wayne County is in a ‘Financial Emergency’. Here is the money shot from the Michigan Department of Treasury press release:
The team’s extensive report indicates that numerous conditions led to the determination that a financial emergency exists in the county. Those conditions include the following:
The county’s last four annual financial audits revealed notable variances between General Fund revenues and expenditures as initially budgeted, as amended, and as actually realized. In addition, County officials underestimated actual expenditures in three of the fiscal years by amounts ranging from $16.7 million to $23.7 million.
County officials engaged in unbudgeted expenditures in violation of Public Act 2 of 1968, the Uniform Budgeting and Accounting Act.
Although there was agreement among county officials that existing detention facilities are inadequate, there is no consensus about whether to complete construction on a new jail or to renovate existing facilities.
According to the county executive’s recovery plan, unfunded healthcare-related liabilities were estimated to be $1.3 billion as of the last actuarial valuation with funding set aside for this purpose of less than one percent of liabilities. Healthcare-related liabilities represent 40 percent of the county’s long-term financial obligations.
The Governor now has 10 days to take one of five actions: do nothing, conduct another ‘neutral’ evaluation, arrange a consent agreement, impose an emergency manager, or file the County for Chapter 9 bankruptcy in U.S. Bankruptcy Court.
Emmet County commissioners are apparently out of touch with the electorate.
I Could have predicted this.
Perhaps I would have; if I lived in Emmet County. However, there should still be nothing surprising about an apparent divergence of priority between the voters and the elected numbskulls who ‘serve’ them. The same type of thinking that drives the nonsense in DC can be just as bad locally, and have a more immediate financial effect.
Reading the bills, or allowing a real debate to happen before committing millions of dollars extracted forcefully from taxpayers should be paramount. The latter option was never allowed to happen however. A year ago, Emmet County commissioners jacked the electorate without the chance to object, leaving them to foot the bill for a $15 Million boondoggle.
