Chaos….Tah Tah’s weapon

Okay, so Tah Tah Deja vu took it upon herself to rearrange the Tribal government organizational structure.  She just decided to change things the way she wanted.

She made the Comptroller, the Human Resources Director and the Tribal Administration equals. The directors and Comptroller are managed by the Tribal Administrator.  The Vice Chairman is the elected official in charge of operations.

They all collaborate to run the government.  Of course, no one knew anything about the switcheroo but her. There was no Council vote to approve it. So it was not true. It was all in Tah Tah’s head. And it sent shockwaves through the building paired with a lot of anger. Another day of chaos, running down rumors and canceling them.

Tah Tah’s audacity and mendacity is toxic. She plans to run the Tribe. Her Linkedin page says she’s the CEO of the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe. Guess she forgot to tell Brian Weeden. Ahem

By then, she was stoking another bonfire.  Another unauthorized action concerning one of the new hires she proudly announced during the Wednesday Council meeting.  That Comptroller could come in mighty handy for someone who can’t do basic accounting who is desperate to produce a budget. Tah Tah’s mendacity makes it impossible for anyone to work with her. We’ll see.  Again Marie is such a liability its not even funny.

She is so disruptive it’s hard to imagine having a day of productivity with a Treasurer trying to do everyonee else’s job while empowering herself at the Tribe’s expense.

Nowhere in sight !

A lot of confirmation of what everyone in the Tribe knew.  Yvonne Frye Avant resigned from the Gaming Commission. She hasn’t been around much. You may recall that Yvonne had trouble finding specific minutes per the FBI request. The Council replaced her with Council Secretary Cassie Jackson.

The episode at the Housing Commission meeting was a part of the discussion in public comment,  but so was Treasurer Marie Stone. ‘Why is Marie the Human Resources Director? She’s gotta lotta work in finance.  Why isn’t she handling finance?’ That was Kimmie Frye’s question. You could feel all 57 Tribal members on the zoom call lean in. Everyone wanted to know what was Tah Tah Deja vu doing?

As the Council meeting started, the Chairman was constantly looking for the ‘Treasurer” who did not respond when votes were called. She was very busy getting ready for her big reveal. So when she got good and damned ready she announced that the  Human Resources Director had been hired along with a Comptroller who would be on the job in two weeks.  Really? There were Tribal members who applied for those jobs that were on the zoom meeting, but never got a letter saying they had not been hired (let alone interviewed) until that evening.

But to show how determined Tah Tah Dejavu is to keep stalling, she’s bringing the very expensive Rewind Audit Team to the Sunday meeting…..to discuss the audit. The same audit as last time…that ate up 2 hours of the General Meeting.  Councilman Aaron Toby wasn’t having any of that.  ” Why the audit at this point? ” he said that it was obviously irrelevant.  So her plan to bore people to tears with the same audit report was cut short. They have 30 minutes.

Here’s the thing. We all know she has NO BUDGET to present. And six months of torture is enough.

Tribal members have a lot on their minds and Sunday is their time to have that dialogue. The Elders for one has serious issues to hash out.The budget allows the government to move forward.  It’s outrageous that one person is holding up progress and $15 million. We have the chance to jump-start and establish our economy. We need a budget to legally move forward.

We talk about a lot on this .com. Stuff that’s uncomfortable.  But if we told you everything we knew….you would lose your mind.

 

 

Times Up…

We waited a couple of months, silently to see if certain people would get their mind right.  And she didn’t.  You know who. Tah Tah Deja vu has done it again.  Wrecking havoc now with the new Tribal Council that’s trying to actually work. Course she’s not alone in the “don’t wanna have a council meeting cause people will ask about my gigantic salary” category. It’s a salary she can’t justify because she cannot do her job.  She doesn’t like being the treasurer just the salary. She likes power and revenge but not responsibility.  She sabotages meeting quorums feyning illness while her brand new Audi is seen parked at a familiar place where she’s partying.

TT Deja vu does her ominous threat dance around certain people. Hea yah, hea yah, hea yah…. “It’s me Tah Tah!”

She is back to terrorizing just about everyone in the government center because she covets the Human Resources post….of all things.  She rolled up on Denise and Armani who were laughing about her inability to figure out the most basic duties of the Treasurer.  She got Armani fired. Meanwhile, she opens people’s mail (we got that from three different staffers and Department heads).  She hides people’s keys, lies, and has returned to sending wacky emails that make no sense.

But it’s just not funny because she has no idea how to allocate the $15 million we received from the federal government.  She’s the one authorized to make those expenditures and avoids it like the plague. It’s the damnedest thing. Thus the stalling and excuses and the Tribe getting nowhere fast.To top it off, she wants to borrow more millions from Genting rather than spend the interest free money we have!  She knows how to spend that $7k she gets every month but can’t fulfill her duty to the Tribe.

Tribal members are taking note.  They are angry not only about her salary but the lack of action by the negligent council leaders. It’s about the lack of accountability with fewer and fewer meetings you see.  It got so bad Wednesday night that Carlton Hendricks Jr. had to call an emergency meeting because all of a sudden too many people were sick to have a quorum.  So the emergency meeting was called. There were 50 tribal members on that zoom call and council members interested in doing their jobs moved forward with some budget issues. That was after absurd group texts about who was in charge legally.

Here’s the thing. Congress just passed over a $1.2 trillion dollars infrastructure legislation Friday. The President will probably sign it into law this weekend. That has more millions for us to establish our TOTAL LACK OF INFRASTRUCTURE! Then there’s millions more ahead in the Build Back Better legislation that will pass before the new year.  So are we going to wait around for Tah Tah Deja vu to figure it out?

The first allotment is already in jeopardy because of her incompetence. We stand to lose more than money with the stranglehold Tah Tah Deja vu has on certain people.  There’s nothing she knows that we don’t know.  One thing for sure…the delaying tactics won’t work for long. Those days of pure unadulterated lunacy are gone.
