Thank You God!
What appeared to be a pretty tame fall City Council election may have just become a lot more fun.
Word on the street is that Jan Flory pulled nomination papers yesterday to run against Mayor Nick Dunlap in the 2nd District election in November.
Who is Jan Flory? If you don’t know, take a spin through our files, here. You’ll find all sorts of entertaining stories about Ms. Flory and even about her creepy/pervy son Mike, who used to be a Deputy District Attorney and even tried to be a judge once.
Jan Flory was elected to the City Council in 1994 and voted off in 2002. In those eight years she happily allowed an illegal water tax, voted for the disastrous retroactive public safety pension spike and supported the culture of unaccountability that has helped us get where we are today.
In 2012 she hauled herself out of the stable to try another lap around the track.
Her mission was to restore municipal authority to the Old Guard she represented, and to protect the Culture of Corruption at the Fullerton Police Department from any sort of reform. She informed us that the City Department heads were the “heart of the City.”
She put in her four years, patting her Chief of Police Danny Hughes on the fanny as they both walked out the door in 2016, a few days after the drunken City Manager, Joe Felz drove over a tree and tried to drive away. The ensuing cover up turned out to be expensive. Oops.
But Jan wasn’t done with us. Not by a long shot.
When an opening on the City Council occurred in 2019 guess who was there to snap up the job? After her appointment she rewarded the unemployed Ahmad Zahra for his vote with a paying gig at the Orange County Water District.
In this last stint Flory was happy to continue her love affair with unbalanced budgets and was one of the members of the Council, along with Jesus Quirk Silva, Ahmad Zahra, and Jennifer Fitzgerald who waged a legal vendetta against this blog and specifically against Joshua Ferguson and David Curlee. Of course that harpy-like mission cost the taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars, but didn’t cost the perpetrators anything.
Well, I sure hope Ms. Flory really does want to run. The entertainment value alone is worth it. Who her constituency might be is unclear. There aren’t that many elderly liberals left in Fullerton. She might get the support of the yellowing, and thinning Fullerton Observer crowd, but a humorless, stick-up-the-backside septuagenarian is not likely to appeal to anyone under seventy.
I’m seeing a Joe Biden scenario here. What happened to Jesus Silva?
He’s a babysitter at Parks Jr. High. Highest and best use.
Definitely a Biden scenario, which looks like elder abuse to me. I want to know who is behind Jan’s decision to run. Is it her creepy son? He has an elder abuse vibe to him.
Poor Jan has not known what’s going on mentally, in a very long time.
It’s not just being a little slow. It’s investing all her faith in her incompetent City employees, covering up for them, while at the same time having a nasty, condescending attitude toward the people of Fullerton. It’s limo liberalism without the limo.
Jesus H. Christ, this is like a Kafka story.
“I love and respect my son.”
Holy shit she’s still alive?
I think she was pickled in formaldehyde at some point. She climbs out of her bottle every few years.
Puff, puff, PASS the sales tax and vote for Flory!
Relentless ambition
Flory franchises failure
Fullerton suffers
Flory’s franchise of failure. Excellent.
She must almost 80. This is ridiculous.
Can we have a yard sign?
This is a sick joke, right? Tell me it is. Please. What’s next, digging up Don Bankhead?
The breast feeding comment lives on!
Well, you know, it’s sort of hard to forget a thing like that.
Man, that Ahmad is getting desperate. I wonder what his wife in Arkansas thinks.
They got divorced after Zahra got his Green Card.
Penalty
…
penalty for green card marriage
§ 1546(a). The Immigration Marriage Fraud Amendments Act of 1986 amended § 1325 by adding § 1325(c), which provides a penalty of five years imprisonment and a $250,000 fine for any “individual who knowingly enters into a marriage for the purpose of evading any provision of the immigration laws.” Under 8 U.S.C.
That’s it.
Michele Steel to the rescue!
Careful, I hear Castaneda is looking for a seat…….
We don’t need another unemployed artiste.
The Dems really, really, really want their 3-2 majority back. We can then rededicate Fullerton to bicycles and homeless encampments!
If Dunlap and Whitaker don’t get their act together, the Dems will do it.
Whatever happened to the $20M Pathways got from his old pal Chaffee on the BOS?
Homeless encampments are Fullerton’s future. Just ask Zahra and Charles!
Jan Flory endorses murder.
