Tender Young Elijah Strays off Reservation

The sweet young “investigative reporter” Elijah Manassero has posted an “opinion” piece at the Observer blog. No investigative research was necessary for the Kennedy Sisters’ cub reporter. It’s all sanctimonious cant about how Fred Jung and Nick Dunlap have demonstrated “how not to run a city,” by delaying a necessary tax increase, and of course by getting rid of the ever incompetent Jennifer Fitzgerald lackey, Ken Domer.
Fullerton is in dire economic straits because of the Jung/Dunlap mismanagement, says the youthful bud Elijah, whose grand experience running anything other than his eager mouth is exactly zero.
But hold on a second!

It was just a few weeks ago that Shana Charles and “Dr.” Ahmad Zahra and Co. were touting Fullerton’s massive reserve funds, funs so well and amply stocked – $30,000,000 – that Fullerton taxpayers could easily cough up a tiny $200,000 to hand over to undocumented immigrants for lawyers, food and rent.

So which is it? Is it possible that Charles and Zahra deliberately lied to their acolytes? Or is the situation really as dire as the green sprout Elijah now asserts?
It seems both can’t be true.

Fullerton Boohoo is generally so stupid and so lacking in self-awareness that they end up arguing against what they have previously said. This sort of inconsistency is not abnormal for people clinging to ideology over practicality.
Haha. Cue young Elijah appearance at FFFF!
I predict that $200,000 issue is going to come back to haunt Sheena Charles.
Who let the roads get bad, Elijah? That.s 30 years of neglect, not five years.
And yet the finances are in rotten shape and both Jung and Dunlap bear that responsibility. In five years they have not addressed the structural deficits created by Fitzgerald, Flor, Quirk-Silva and Ahmad Zahra.
Fred thinking his record is deserving of the board of supervisors is the funniest part of this whole ordeal
And your slavish devotion to the immigrant fraudster, serial liar, and unemployed deadbeat Zahra is even funnier!
You got here even faster than I thought you would.
Haven’t seen Ahmad or Shana do much with their time. Well, if you don’t count politicing during council meetings and appearing at “community” events to snap a selfie pretending like they are doing something. They do post a lot about themselves and their opinions. Kind of like Elijah Manassero and his boohoo crew of 2: Anjali and Jozef (nice spelling shitface). Wonder who he learned that trick from? Dumb kid must be on the spectrum.
Tony finally got his majority. 5 years later, what has actually been done for this city?
They ran on opposing a tax measure. 5 years later, they’re asking voters for help after failing to fix the deficit
Elijah! Whose opinions are untethered from any practical experience. So you are saying there isn’t enough in reserves to cover the deficits created by Zahra, et al?
Good thing we didn’t waste any paying for illegal aliens’ rent.
