Kennedy Sisters Have Cage Rattled
On Tuesday George A. Bushala returned to the Fullerton City Council Chambers to address the the issue of Ahmad Zahra’s Marriage Fraud to gain permanent residency status. That was entertaining as Zahra got into a huff, interrupted, cried, got up and left the room. Then Bushala expanded on his thesis, noting that Zahra gets away with his behavior thanks the connivance of the fake news Fullerton Observer, a self-styled newspaper that is incompetent, always prejudiced, and that has gone out of it’s way to insinuate libels against people just like him.
In a high state of pique the Kennedy Sisters published their usual blog recap of public comments; but they let their self-righteous hosannas get the better of them.
First they recount an entire dialog between Zahra, Fred Jung and the City Attorney – none of which actually occurred.
A sense of irony being nothing if not completely missed by the Kennedy Sisters, Bushala’s speech is followed by one of those obnoxious “Editor” notes that are the hallmark of the Observer. This one is so faint it’s almost impossible to read, but really it’s just a lame daisy chain of excuses, self-righteousness and pro-Zahra bullshit that ends with an accusation that Bushala spreads falsehoods and she (which ever sister scribbled this) won’t tolerate it!
The Observer is “news of the people by the people,” donchaknow, the activist Mother that begat all sorts of save this and thats. They strive to get the truth out, so long as “truth” is compatible with their own warped, worldview. We all saw how mightily the Kennedy Sisters avoided the the story of the fake Markowitz candidacy. In fact Sharon seemed to involve herself in the cover-up by coaching the hapless Diane Vena.
And thus the circle is closed as the Kennedys perform yet again the very thing of which George Bushala accused them.
The facts are clear. There are no falsehoods related about Zahra. Everything Bushala said was a matter of fact, and FFFF has copies of the documents to prove it. If one wishes to question Zahra’s motives for running down to Little Rock, Arkansas to marry a female citizen, one is not spreading falsehoods, but rather is positing the most likely scenario.
The Kennedys believe “Dr.” Zahra is honorable and transparent – despite all the evidence to the contrary. This utterly slavish devotion renders them incapable to see their own culpable participation in Zahra’s lies. From his assault and battery case, to his Observer-enabled plagiarism they’ve been in lockstep with this Middle Eastern miscreant.
News “by the people” means:
1) The right kind of people
2) Amateur hour. And the idea that anybody can do it.
3) Lot’s of mistakes, errors, inconvenient embarrassment are written off as the cost of doing amateur businesss.
George Bushala: “Hello, Mayor Jung and council. George Bushala here, and I’m here tonight to address two interconnected issues that have significant implications for our community. Firstly, I’d like to bring attention to Mr. Zahra’s past actions. When he arrived in the United States in the mid 1990s, he settled in Little Rock, Arkansas where he married an American woman named Michelle Salmon. This is noteworthy, given that Mr. Zahra has publicly claimed to have always known he was gay. While his personal life is not our concern, it’s intriguing that a gay immigrant would marry a female US citizen. This raises suspicions about the motivations behind this marriage. Soon after Mr. Zahra relocated to Los Angeles, leaving his wife in Arkansas, a few years later, he conveniently divorced Michelle.”
Councilman Zahra: “Uh, Mr. Mayor I believe this is a personal nature and it’s slanderous and not city business.”
Mayor Jung: “We’ll hear the public comment.”
George Bushala: “I have a right to speak.”
Fred Jung: “I sit when everybody comments my way. Council member Valencia does the same.”
Councilman Zahra: “But this is a personal, this is-this is a personal accusation.”
Mayor Jung: “They have a right to make public comment. Ask the city attorney. I will ask him now sir, on your behalf.”
Councilman Zahra: “They are invoking my sexuality. They are invoking- so you know, you are um liable of slander if this is the case, because this is – this has nothing to do with my sexuality.”
George Bushala: “I was not finished, actually. I was not finished as to why this is related.”
Mayor Jung: “Mr. City Attorney?”
City Attorney Dick Jones: “He can speak.”
Was that so difficult, Saskia?
“slander”?
Calling it slander means he’s saying it’s false or misleading which means he’s calling George a liar which would be… slander.
Nobody wants to think about Zahra’s sexuality. It only matters because he has identified his “brand” as queer-Islam, and that makes his marriage to a woman in Arkansas even more of a deception.
City Attorney Dick Jones: “He can speak.”
Mayor Jung: “Indeed.”
George Bushala: “May I please reclaim some time as well please?”
Mayor Jung: “Go ahead.”
George Bushala: “A few years later, he conveniently divorced Michelle once his residency had been established. This sequence of events appears more than coincidental. It suggests a case of marriage fraud, a serious federal offense. It’s disturbing to think that Mr. Zahra’s first action in the United States was to violate federal law. Many people in Fullerton have been taken in by Mr. Zahra’s persona, particularly the publishers of
the Fullerton Observer. This brings me to my second issue, the Observer’s consistent dissemination of misinformation and bias reporting. The publication has a history of ignoring critical stories such as Mr. Zahra’s Assault and Battery case, and the recent Scott Markowitz fraud case in which Sharon Kennedy seemed to be coaching and exonerating one of the individuals involved. Upon closer examination, it becomes clear that the Fullerton Observer prioritizes political bias and personal opinions over factual
reporting. The publication is notorious for its lack of editing, poor writing and snide innuendos. The editor’s comments inserted into letters to the editor are particularly egregious, comically the Observer even misidentified me as my uncle demonstrating the depths of their journalistic incompetence. Furthermore, the Kennedy sisters have consistently blurred the lines between reporting and manufacturing news, often characterizing their own activism as grassroots movements. This blatant disregard for
journalistic ethics is appalling, especially considering that they lack any resemblance of ethical standards to begin with. On a personal note, I’ve experienced the Observer’s malicious behavior firsthand during the December meeting. The Kennedy sisters attempted to shout me down before being escorted out by the police. For years, the Observer has engaged in gossip mongering.”
Lucinda Williams, City Clerk: “And that’s your three minutes.”
Mayor Jung: “Thank you, sir. Alright, any others on?”
The Observer predictably followed their usual pattern of printing comments online not made by Zahra but attributed to the City Attorney, deliberately misleading their readers, including individuals like John Hoogerwees, Vince Bike, Karen Loreda, Dianne Vena, and Kitty Jaramillo. Will they correct this before publishing their “newspaper”? No.
I’m unsure about who to trust for accurate information, the Fullerton Observer or Friends For Fullerton’s Future (4F). Both sources seem to have conflicting reports and opinions. Who am I to believe?
FFFF tells the truth. End of story.
For council meeting or votes, watch recap of meetings which are online. For everything else, read up on both and others and decide who is more credible these days.
Ha! I found the answer to my question. The Fullerton Observer has not only removed George Bushala’s transcript from their online edition but also scrubbed the “Editor’s Note.” One has to wonder what could possibly motivate such a decision. Perhaps they realized their transcript was full of misinformation and decided to pull the plug, or maybe they were “somehow” pressured to sweep something under the rug. Either way, it’s a classic move in the world of media manipulation, hide the evidence and hope no one notices. It’s a shame to see such transparent censorship, but at least now it’s clear who was telling the truth and who was fabricating a narrative for their biased readers to swallow. The idea that if your last name is Bushala, you must be telling “mistruths” is laughable, but it seems the Observer is all too willing to constantly perpetuate that baseless and defamatory narrative.
Zahra, “they are invoking my sexuality, so uh you know they are liable for slander if that’s the case.”
City Attorney Dick Jones, “he can speak”.
The quote in the Observer from Zahra was misattributed to Attorney Jones. Think they (the sisters) will change it? No. Think they care? No.
This post is a little self serving. You guys accuse Kennedy for making their own news. This is the same. Bushala had one of his kids call into a meeting to read a prepared statement. While there may be truth to the statement, it isn’t anything new. Zahra’s reaction isn’t anything new. This isn’t news.
FFFF isn’t an objective news outlet. Neither is the Slobserver.
It isn’t new, but it’s fun. Life needs a bit of humor to remain interesting, and Ahmad’s a joke.
Damn, I missed out. I knew I should have gone Tuesday night.
BTW, the Observer now simply using “Diane” when recounting her nonsense.
Funny.
Typical Observer, not crediting ‘Diane’ fully with a public comment by omitting her last name. But unfortunately, it’s business as usual.
The Sisters have to protect her from her stupid self.
Observer uses AI to transcribe meetings, and it’s a well-known fact that AI ALWAYS adds or changes the meaning of words and cannot do a straight transcription. It’s journalistic malpractice to use these tools and present the result as a real transcription.
The Kennedy’s are incompetent.
They need ti use AI because they have no staff to speak of. They’re not news anymore. They’re a tabloid hiding behind the virtues of journalism, which they are not anymore.
Thank you George Bushala for getting the truth out about Fullerton’s own “George Santos.”
Mr Santos is the former New York congressman who is proudly gay, but his origin story included marriage to a woman and all manner of fabrications to build up his resume and background.
Some of his false claims:
-Jewish descendant of holocaust survivors
-Played volleyball while at Baruch College
-Worked on Wall Street for a large financial firm.
The local and national press was criticized for not vetting Santos before he became a congressman.
Maybe councilman Zhara is a gay man, who married and divorced a woman, married and divorced a Latino man, was a Doctor of Pathology at 23 years of age, performed brain surgery, drove Penelope Cruz around Beverly Hills, and then became a Fullerton filmmaker.
That sure is a wild origin story.
Maybe Zhara should run for Congress.
Besides being a Pathology Doctor and a filmmaker, Zahra is also an author and an expert on water and hydrology. How do I know this? The Fullerton Observer is well aware of his accolades.
Is that guy single?
Can someone post the time when Zahra got up crying from the Council Meeting? I would love to have a good laugh today!!
Jellyfish have more spine than Zahra.
Ask Saskia about her failed marriage and her time spent in Kentucky.
Sounds exceptionally boring.
Failed marriages are a dime a dozen. Ask Zahra, he’s pretty keen on who to marry, and when to marry.
Can someone here tell me what qualifies her to head up the Observer? Does she have a degree in journalism or even English?
Yes, I can, she worked at a golf course in Carmel and a Starbucks once, and ran her own dare care business for six months. Trust me, she’s highly qualified.
Will the Kennedy siblings write the same editorial about Bushala and Jung again for the thousandth time? Someone call the Whambulance!
