Oliver’s Twist
A few days ago Mr. Peabody brought up the case of Oliver Montecristo and his mom, Jinan, both of who popped up over the summer crying foul. Why? Because the City had the audacity to charge them “excessive” rent on the space outside their restaurant in downtown Fullerton.
Oliver has taken to insulting Mayor Jung and councilmembers Dunlap and Valencia for their persecution of “Les Amis” and perforce, their anti-small business bias.
At first I couldn’t figure out what the deal was. Fullerton Boohoo, led by the Kennedy Sisters certainly climbed on the bandwagon quickly shedding tears, so they said. The sweet young rosebud, Elijah Manassero thought he knew a good thing when he saw it, to attack Fred Jung in order to help out Connor Traut. The narrative was great: Jung beats down the little man. News at 11.
The tender sprig even came up with a fun graphic: Les Amis bound like Prometheus by red, well, yellow tape.
The problem for Jinan and her cub Oliver’s narrative is that they have been determinedly dodging rent due to the City for 15 years while they were also squatting on public property without agreements or permits in place.
Isn’t that a terrible look for anybody, let alone people who get up in public and attack their landlords? And why oh why had the City allowed these scofflaws to stay in business on our property and to continue to grab more public real estate without permission?
Questions.
Then a commenter suggested a cozy relationship between 5th District Councilman Ahmad Zahra and the restaurant located in his district. Hmm. A little checking revealed Zahra political fundraisers held at…Les Amis. What a coincidence. Here are a couple of images from a Zahra campaign fundraiser:
Zahra once held a “Pride Celebration” fundraiser of some kind at Les Amis that featured Robert Garcia – another fellow grifter, just like himself.
It looks like Zahra may well have persuaded impressionable Oliver to start making a nuisance of himself. Doc Zahra has certainly pitched the “Les Amis as victims” to young Elijah who has taken up the cause with liveliness.
It appears that Les Amis has become a hub of local Democrat activity on misappropriated property. And look who the most recent beneficiary:
Makes you wonder about the integrity of all concerned.
Unfortunately, this ploy of Zahra/Traut, whose ultimate goal is to attack Jung, has backfired badly. The ugly truth about Les Amis is now out of the bag and the good folk of Fullerton are entitled to know exactly when they’re going to get paid for the property Les Amis is squatting on.
If they have been such horrible tenants, why did the city keep renegotiating with them?
This is a weak attempt at silencing small businesses who call out the fact you’ve held water for blatant cronyism for 10 years.
This is pathetic
Wow, quick response.
I’ve changed my mind. Jinan and Olly are great tenants. They just don’t pay their rent and can’t stay on their own property. Other than that they’re splendid.
I don’t know why the City hasn’t seized our property back from the illegal encroachments. I know! Let’s ask tender young Elijah, or his mentor Dr. Zod.
Silencing small businesses? How about the small business pays its bills after 15 years, ya chowder head.
Must be Elijah or Oliver.
You truly are an idiot. Because some council members like Charles and Zahra and other leaders of the death cult that calls itself the “OC Democratic Party” like Trout and Quirk-Silva were engaged in obvious quid pro quo relationships with Les Amis.
“If they have been such horrible tenants, why did the city keep renegotiating with them?”
LMAO
What are you, new?
Oh, wait……
The question is half good.
Bet ya a falafel sandwich, Les Amis has hosted at least one Shana fundraiser on said public owned patio?
I do seem to remember that. If you can find a picture, please send our way.
So Jinan owes us between 30-40K over the years, she got it whittled down to 6k (probably the work of Eric “Love it and Leave-it” and she still won’t pay.
With amis like this who needs enemies!?
Come on now. She and Oliver are victims of circumstance, the circumstance being they’re deadbeats.
Typical Democrats. They never pay their bills, play the victim, and blame others for their absence of personal integrity and accountability.
If only they’d kept their mouths shut. This is what you get when Zahra whispers his sweet nothings in your ear.
Why does the City allow Mario Marovic to squat in the City’s “bump out” instead of evicting him which it has every right to do?
Because Dick Jones & Co. probably haven’t even read the Florentine lease.
So the son of a deadbeat is defending his deadbeat mom…and the king of deadbeats Ahmad is voting on their priveledged to be deadbeats on city property because they host his fundraisers for free and provide free food to his donors and he fails to declare on his donation forms…and the transparency deadbeat Elijah Manassero hasn’t written an open letter or cried out for more accountability on social media because his master Connor Traut had a political fundraiser there as well (with presumably the same sweetheart arrangement in free food and free space rent)…shocking! The hypocrisy!
We don’t know if Les Amis made an in-kind donation to Traut and Zahra.
Zahra and Traut either got one or they had to pay a campaign expense to the restaurant.
Either way, it’s a public record. I can check.
Pay up !!
Connor Traut would kill his dog and prostitute his mother if it meant climbing one more step up the political ladder. He is despicable and a serial abuser of the weak and disenfranchised.
Butt, he’s such a nice and likeable guy.
Troutlet is another Brandman. Brandman was his “mentor” and hero which tells you all you need to know about him.
Quid pro quo in action. Traut, Quirk-Silva, Charles, and Zahra are all hacks with no marketable skills, so they prowl in politics.
How old is that photo of Ahmad with Robert Garcia? He has gained a lot of weight since. Ozempic is covered by most insurance policies. Food is not your friend Ahmad.
The “les Amis, treated like le enemy” graphic is confusing. Why is the stick figure guy in BDSM? Is that the les Amis social or happy hour?
Oliver was an “intern” over the summer with Sharon Quick-Silver. Now he’s a realtor, so he says – founder of “Montecristo Estates.”
Swear to God I’m not making this up.
Does Montecristo Estates sell bridges? Cause the family lies and cheats just like Zahra.
Maybe he can sell a house and pay off mom’s debt to Fullerton.
Don’t they live in one of Bushala’s properties? Renters. Maybe he can sell Bushala’s apartment.
Hey Oliver, the next time Zahra and Traut whisper in your ear that they have something in their pockets that you’re really going to enjoy, they aren’t talking about money.
Isn’t “Bernard” the guy who fell out of an airplane?
Isn’t that Bernard fraud also a restaurant owner and a hip hop star too? Gotta love the pathological serial liar. Just like his handler Ahmad Zahra.
Oliver’s knickers may be in a twist pretty soon. Mom’s too.
The only man in the photos is the dude in the dress.
True. Traut and Zahra are more creature than human.
Brandman, Trout, Zahra, Young Elijah, Oliver Montechristo.
I’d love to see Traut and Zahra brutalized in the Octagon — would pay BIG $$$ to see that!
