Hey Wamps out there….guess what we forgot to tell you ? We’re into Genting for $700 million not $600 million. Ain’t that something? That was the news last night laid on our awesome Mashpee 5 and their other salaried cohorts. And guess what happened next ? They voted to add $3 million to that ($360,000 in interest graciously withheld until March ). Here’s how they voted.
Yvonne Frye Avant, David Weeden, Winnie Johnson, Aaron Tobey — YES
Brian Weeden, Anne Marie Askew — ABSTAINED
Rita Gonzalves — ABSENT
Gordon Harris — SICK LEAVE (Ahem)
Carlton Hendricks, Jr — NO
Let’s talk about these votes. The ones voting yes are clearly in the pocket of Genting, America’s most wanted gaming monolith and predatory lender. They just go right along…skippin’ down the path to our ruin. What’s another $3 million? If Genting offered $25,000 at 50% interest, they would have taken it because they are so damned dumb they don’t think there are consequences for their irresponsibility. And the Tribe? To hell with the Tribe. Rita has had surgery and continues to deal with a tough recovery. And Gordon Harris…well don’t worry about him, cause he did his thing, and all bets are that the Tribe will never see him again despite the
fact that the Mashpee 5 and cohorts are still paying his salary($95K) for failing to deliver a tribal budget for 3 years, violating law. The silly ones are showing their lack of acuity and voting protocol once again. Brian and Ann Marie abstained. That means you’re not voting on the issue….but it doesn’t clear you of any wrong doing. They think they are cleaver but you abstain if you have a conflict. And Ann Marie has a conflict yes but she wins the salary (to do nothing) cause she knows what the final vote will be in the end. For Ann Marie, it’s about the money. They both should have voted yes because they weren’t fooling anyone. The orders are still coming from Cedric through Je$$ie. Scared as she is, her loyalty is still to Cedric, not the Tribe.
Aaron was a surprise. But maybe he’s reconsidering a run for something,
and getting paid. But it’s hard to justify taking money from the bad guys under these incredibly bad circumstances.
Carlton Hendricks, Jr. — NO. Hendricks continues to sound the alarm and challenge the bad deals, but they just won’t put The Mashpee First. Here’s what the $3 million is supposed to be spent on.
$1.2 million to Lawyers for LIT (complete failure) Still owed $1.5 million
$700,000 “Soft Costs” Gaming Authority (outstanding bills ha,ha)
$550,000 Taunton Payment
$500,000 Tribal Salaries (Really? The only people who produce or work are on grants or employed by IHS). It’s just a damned shame that during a crisis we’re spending like this. Not even a Federal Investigation can stop the madness. We’ll see how long that lasts.
We have no words for the above graft. It’s just too absurd. So the Trump Burn it Down on the Way Out is apparently in play.
But there was a point in the Zoom call that was pretty funny and so indicative of how simple our Doe Little Je$$ie can be. So David Pocknett was on the Zoom and as usual he had his Reel Wamps shirt on but Je$$ie blocked the video you could only hear him. So David being David asked why his video was cut off and of course Messy basically said the shirt caused viewers a lot of stress.
