Zahra Wets Bed. Again.
Fullerton Councilmember Ahmad Zahra has been on a roll lately. And by roll, I mean getting humiliated by a council majority that is sick and tired of the immigration fraud, plagiarist, serial liar, and busted woman batterer. Well, no Kitty Jaramillo and no mayorship for you, Ahmad. No stipend-paying, do-nothing wank at the Orange County Water District, and no more idiot Walk on Wilshire.
We’ve seen his own flailing effort to create a controversy over Councilwoman Jamie Valencia’s campaign contributions, going so far as to basically accusing his own City Attorney of incompetence in the matter. And that’s not the only unforced error made by this little fellow.
Back in January Zahra decided not to re-appoint his Planning Commissioner Arif Mansuri, a gentleman FFFF has noted as a diligent and intelligent representative with actual professional credentials. Zahra instead appointed a young guy named Adrian Meza.
Never heard of Meza? I didn’t either so I did some research. The guy is one of those identity politicking “progressive” types, without any discernable ability who hang around politics for critical self validation – just like his apparent mentor, Ahmad Zahra. Meza says he is a Digital Marketing Specialist, whatever that means, and works for a company that arranges egg collection and surrogacy for gay people. What this has to do with experience in land use and planning is beyond me.
More importantly, Meza is a member of the that preachy and self-righteous crowd that doesn’t do an awful lot of thinking for themselves. Naturally he has been a writer of some kind for the Fullerton Observer that touted his video about how bad Fullerton’s roads are. The video recommended new taxes, of course, and even spent time wedging in support for the Trail to Nowhere with a hat tip to the community disservice of FFFF.
His bio on linkedin suggests he is still a Parks Commissioner (his first listed title!) and and even lists his efforts for the Observer as some sort of real job. Other stuff is part-time work in municipal park departments. Of course, like Zahra, he describes himself as a “videographer” with one amateur attempt listed. Man, talk about fluffing. We do have another Zahra on our hands.
Anyway, this selection has come to grief, apparently because Mr. Meza doesn’t currently live in Fullerton. as required by law. WoW. That’s embarrassing. How is it that Zahra didn’t know his guy doesn’t live here? And an even better question would ask whether Meza has been on Fullerton’s Park and Rec Commission while not a citizen of Fullerton. That would look bad. The question deserves an answer from Zahra; if Meza was willing to be on our Planning Commission illegally there’s no reason to suppose he had no qualms about being a Parks Commissioner while living, say, in Anaheim.
Of course no one will get an answer from Zahra about this, because no one will ask. Hopefully one of the other Councilpersons who ratified the nomination will try to find out. But I doubt it, Fullerton being Fullerton.
“My commitment to transparency and integrity guides my decision-making process, ensuring that the interests of the community are prioritized at all times. Whether attending city council meetings, organizing community events, or liaising with local agencies, I am dedicated to fostering collaboration and driving positive outcomes for our city.”
What a load of bullshit.
AI? That’s so bad.
Well, it’s funny. Does that count?
“As a proactive leader, I have collaborated with fellow commissioners and city officials to address pressing issues and implement impactful initiatives. Leveraging my strong communication skills, I engage with residents, stakeholders, and community organizations to gather feedback, assess needs, and champion inclusive policies.”
Good God, what drivel.
It’s hard to imagine this isn’t satire. But I know it isn’t.
What did that little dweeb ever lead? He met once a month with park employees and rubber stamped their bullshit.
I’m sure he wasted everyone’s time, too, verbalizing that mental diarrhea.
Like his mentor, “AI” Meza’s a complete fraud. Does anyone know when Zahra appointed him to the Parks Commission?
…and the next Ahmad appointment chicken dinner is Vivian Kitty Jaramillo…cue the Return of the Jedi soundtrack because Jabba awaits.
He should appoint that old know it all Karen Loreda to replace yo Adrian.
Ahmad thinks he’s a god. He will anoint his pal Scott Markowitz.
He should appoint Maureen Hilton.
Maureen would be a million times better choice than Meza or Jaramillo!
Boy Toy.
Uh oh, Mr. Meza made some updates on his Linked in profile. Suspicious much? They say they don’t care for the FFFF but are constantly on here reading it.
Such as? Looks the same to me.
Hehe. Made you look.
Yep. Fullerton being Fullerton.
Yeah hello, its Adrian here. I do live in Fullerton but in politics the only way to stay in, is if you have money. I.E. if your parents have money, you have a career of your own, or you are bought out by landlords; being a 20-year-old from a low-income family where I moved out to live in Fullerton. I know first-hand how expensive (and how terrible the living situations) apartments here in Fullerton, because of this I decided to finish my schooling to finish my career in Digital Media and Marketing. Ill be back, trust me I am an honest person who wants what’s best for Fullerton and its residents.
The options were:
1. Suffer from financial stress because of high cost of living and not be 100% there for the residents
2. Wait for a landlord to come and buy my vote and go against the voices of the Fullerton residents
3. Leave, finish my sixth degree and focus on myself and wait to be back and not be able to be bought out
I chose the third. I truly do not see a Rep vs Dem, Minority vs Majority. Whats been an issue is just low income individuals not being able to climb the corporate ladder and now have to work two jobs JUST to live paycheck to paycheck, that is not acceptable and if you ask yourself why that is, America has a huge cost of living. 78% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck and majority of that comes from landlords increasing rents when no improvements have been made no need to be made.
As the Father of Capitalism said: “Landlords… love to reap where they never sowed.” AND ““The rent of land… is a monopoly price. It is not at all proportioned to what the landlord may have laid out on the improvement of the land.”
Trust me ill be back to fight for the Fullerton Residents
Of Sweet Baby Jebus. We’ve had enough little wannabe political parasites.
Anyhow, you’ve been replaced by young Elijah Manassero, so your services, such as they are, aren’t required any longer.
But do let us know when you get your seventh degree.
