The “Artful Dodger” and the Frye’s Revenge— Cut off the head of the herrin’

Cedric Cromwell is such a Trumpster Clone you can’t stand it.  Narcissistic, greedy, no interest in helping our people.  How do we know.? There’s always something shady going on when he’s involved. The only good thing is that the outcome of his ridiculous

Cedric always seems out of place. Here he’s got the alien sunglasses on and the crazy bolo as Natives scowl behind him. He just never fit in anywhere. The Tribe wants someone they can be proud of, not a failure who is the laughing stock of Indian Country.

schemes, are losing propositions.  Let’s start with this years home coming.  You couldn’t call it a Pow Wow.  Oh whatever.  Call it the Indian costume party or such and such  It’s always some kind of imitation. The only thing that is genuine is the youth competition. Cedric has been successful at downgrading the Pow Wow…very successful at that. The once much anticipated Mashpee Wampanoag Pow Wow has become an event attended by those who expect some kind of spectacle.  And Cedric provides it every time.

Anyway, Cedric always starts groveling around when things are looking bad.  He had hip replacement surgery.  Now a days it takes a short time to recover.  Of course, he comes in, on a walker with the big bodyguard looking nasty..well he starts something with Joey Dias and he’s run out of there. But luckily for Cedric, the torrential rain came and everyone broke camp.

But Cedric’s reprieve did not last long. A petition was circulating at the Pow Wow  for the next 2 days that is pretty kicking your a– in nature. It’s not the amount of money (like $11K) involved but it’s where the money was stolen from and by whom.  His  wife, the First Lady  was ordered to reimburse Indian Health Services ( because she was double billing) on travel and other nafarious things.  Ahem…..well, she never did it.  Ya can’t steal from the FEDS.  Not $10.

So here’s Cheryl Frye ( Cromwell), who’s not an ” Indside Frye” but an ” Outside-Frye” still acting  like she’s on the dole instead of

Cheryl’s in the booby trap. Out of poverty, she thumbed her nose at her detractors, put her kids in private schools and lived the high life, only to be revealed for who she really is and always be.

someone who’s combined income (with Ceddie) is somewhere between $400K -$550K (that we know about) still lookin’ for an extra dime here and there. The Inside  Fryes know Cheryl didn’t protect them from the firing squad, but what she didn’t count on was that the remainig Fryes were in places that knew where the money was funny. Oh yes. Very funny. So the petition is all about Cheryl and her failure to repay IHS like she shoulda. Think about all those contrived awards she got from IHS.  Apparently they’ll know what  a crook she is now.

The Frye insurrection is a two edged sword.  They’re worried because they know a whole lot and they have to answer why they never said anything. That also goes for the finance people who came before them and Mark Harding…ahem.They forget that they were going right along with everything before all their relatives got fired. A small contingent of “Inside Fryes” (qualified) stepped up.

They want to FRY Cheryl and REMOVE Cedric. Yes, get him outta there.  To do that the Council, has to decide the corruption issue of malfeasance because they have to vote on the removal of anyone.The petition means the council has to have a  special meeting on this subject to hear the complaint. They have the proof on Cheryl and the “Inside Fryes” have enough on Cedric to be dangerous. Sort of like Michael Cohen on Trump.They could also remove Treasurer Gordon Harris too because he was coimplicit.The Fryes have been chatting this up for a month or two. They have meeting on Rt. 130 regularly. and they’re not the only family mad about our latrine status. Everyone is mad about being scammed.

Gordon Gordon Gordon…the reluctant, resentful Mashpee Wampanoag. Acceptance is a big problem for you too. Hiding the truth,thinking he’s smarter than everyone. Well, you have some serious questions to answer also.

It’s obvious that Ceddie and Cheryl know this  because they started canceling council meetings again. Of course this is what happens when you have a dictatorship.  Things are out of control.  And when you have someone like Shovel Ready Ceddie in charge, he doesn’t have the decency to resign.But the jig is up.  Everyone is tierd of being pimped out.

Scared of the masses showing up and demanding a vote Cedric is trying to figure his next move because he can’t keep canceling meetings.  As things get worse, his supporters will flake off and try to save themselve.  But the fact remains that he does not have the votes. He is actually bringing the families together again which is a good thing.  The family that was rewarded and then turned out is the one that could mobilize the core of the Tribe.

Course there are council members that will do that and with proof of theft and malfeasance, say goodbye Mr. Chairman, the First Lady.and Gordon Harris. There are also council members who have participated in the scheme who are turning a blind eye to the corruption.  Well that’s not acceptable is it? The Vice Chairman Jessie Baird neglects her duties has missed  numberous meetings making her eligible for  removable and is on the record saying that she does not come to council or Sunday meetting because she doesn’t want to be criticized.  Well, step  aside girl. give your big fat check (over $100K) to several needy families.  Your’re supposed to resolve our problems and do some damned work. It’s amazing that she never comes to work or council meetings but she get over $10 K a month.  Boy what we could do with that!

Let’s take a look at those minutes….oh, no minutes? Right. Do you realize we have a government that has  no record of what the hell they’re doing? Kinda like Trump who probably sold us  into slavery to the Russians, Indians and all. We’d probaly be in another circus like Squanto had to endure in Great Britan. I digress.

The Town of Mashpee the “Benevolent Benefactor!”

Mashpee Wamps are known for testing people and breaking them down. Mullon is the latest example of a lifeline thrown to us because of Shovel Ready Ceddie’s failure to deliver. May the Creator be with you David Mullon. The ones in charge are not our sharpest knives in the drawer.

The irony of all this is too much.  Cedric clearly went to the Town and begged.  Okay.  We get that, but it’s not for us, it’s for him to keep getting a check you see? Okay but the Town is not pure in this deal either.They know Cedric is incapable of handling this. The Town is going to hire a well qualified attorney in Native American law, David Mullon,  who has worked for the Oklahoma Cherokees and was Attorney General to the Muskogee Creek Nation. He also was staff dirrector to various committees dealing with Native American issues so he knows his way around the Congress and the Republican members during his tenure in the early 2000’s.His job is to  to push our legislation through to preserve our reservation status.  Okay, we’re for that and it can be done, but by a lone advocate in this dysfunctional Congress? Pretty tough. Normally it takes an army of firms to tackle something like this. And  all of of legislative sponsors are pretty unpopular. But that’s expected to change soon.  Mullon is 67 years old with credentials in Indian Country and a good reputation in DC. But, many of the members he worked for and with are gone.  But here’s the bigger question…what’s in it for the Town.  Why are they pulling out the respirator for the town’s poor pitiful namesake?

They don’t like us all of a sudden. And Cedric didn’t help matters by failing to at least talk to our occupiers, nation to nation. No he was gettin’ that check and such. Now its all gone to hell and the town sees where this going.  The BIA is going to drop us like bad breathe. And guess who else has disappeared? Genting.  Why arent they hiring the lobbyists? Cause they are out.

And the Town.  Well, the Town does not want us on their welfare rolls. It’s all very bad PR for the Town. Treating the Greeters of the Pilgrims like begars.   We have no way to pay the taxes when the Trumpsters yank our LIT and we’re once again without a reservation. It’s worth it for them to make a run at salvaging our dignity.

After 6 months of languishing, the bill is coming up in committee Tuesday and guess who’s testifying? Cedric.  You ought to have Earl Mills or someone real Mashpee testify so we would stand a chance.  But no, he’s got to get up there lookin’ like Dent surrounded by you know who…will he have his walker?

What the hell did they do with half a billion dollars? What did they do with the $175 million dumped into the Gaming Commision slush fund this year? It’s so absurd you wonder how and why Cedric dares to show his face.Too sad for words
