She said she wasn't gonna talk about bikes for once so that's what you get. Next time we'll probably have to hear about what her cat had for breakfast.
Hey shithole losers. The markets aren’t done yet with the Trump crash.
We still have a 400% tax hike on imports for every nation but Russia. We still have 125% tax on imports from China. We still have auto and parts tax hike adding $7000 to the cost of a car. For all of these reasons, all the forecasts on Wall Street are still for a big, beautiful Trump recession.
Nothing will change in 90 days. Trump will either crash our economy further or cave again like a little bitch. Either way, the world thinks we are a joke, and all civilized nations will seek long term to divest from the US and reduce their exposure to the batshit crazy shithole losers running the place.
China will probably dump treasuries and the 25% of the US mortgage market they own, driving rates through the roof.
It’s springtime and US farmers have already spent the money to plant this season’s export crops. They are fucked. Say goodbye to red states. Frankly they deserve it.
Sounds like jackasses who don’t know what this blog is for. Really wish WC would ban you freaks. And I mean on both sides of the aisle just go away.
Back to the point of this, how about blakespearKranz favorite Brian Grover of Fox point Farms fame advertising an Airbnb on the project but no permit. That guy thinks nothing can touch him. He’s in for a rude awakening without BlakeSpear and Kranz there to protect his entitled rear.
Bruce speaking out against SEN means they are closer to him and the MAGA boys than he wants people to know. SEN's also been going after Bruce .... just like Natalie did immediately following his statement. WHAT A COINCIDENCE! NOT! 🤣🤣🤣
Bruce better watch his shit and figure out how to pick a real city manager.
We all know he’s better than Kranz regarding the manage Ruth issue, but he’s doing nothing as far as budgeting for the city properly and correcting the sinking ship.
NGL it's kinda amazing that our council is controlled by a few hate filled MAGAtts. Mainly a Carlsbad wacko and some others who've lived here less time than my cat.
The complete partial birth abortion shit show at Slumshine Gardens is beautiful. Looks like a 10 story beautiful concrete parking structure is taking shape. No windows just fenty dens.
Wait til Fail Gardens gets it's new 10 story fenty dens. Gonna be epic!
Why does The Shyndler continue to try to make East Encinitas a thing? And why was she wearing a lab coat to the meeting? Was she handling dangerous chemicals out in the parking lot prior to speaking? And if so, can we look forward to the additon of a hair-net, gloves and ventilation as part of her costume additions the next time she shows up and wastes everyone's time?
JIm complains that they shouldn't make a decision about Luke's district when he's not there but JIM! You jerk! YOU BROUGHT FORWARD AN AGENDA ITEM ABOUT JOY'S DISTRICT WHEN SHE'S NOT THERE. Such a hypocrite
HYPOCRITE: Joy is out, let me bring forward an agenda item in her district, Oh wait, an item came up about Luke's district while he's out? Clutch pearls, this is SO inappropriate! Oh, wait the people in this neighborhood WANT the roundabout? I don't fricken care, because I don't like Tony Kranz
Kranz failed for 12 years in getting anything good for Leucadia.
Jim comes out with a big F U to Leucadia!
Bruce is supporting huge staff operations budget bloated with excess staff recommended by The Jazzercise wreck manager. All while the city cries poor and has zero money for projects.
They’re fighting over scraps on who gets to submit stupid useless grants.
What they should be focused on is deleting the unnecessary 40 excessive full time employee positions at City Hall and taking all of that money and fundng the needed projects.
As Greg Lafave explained and showed, the city is awash in revenue.
The Jazzercise instructor will never be a competent city manager. Never.
Encinitas is continuing to head into the dark abyss. The wrecking Ball continues.
Wow-,Bruce continues to support the Jazzersize Wreck Manager directing Blakespear and her gimp’s City Hall bike trap designer Abe continue receiving his huge salary and pensions while he continues to fuck up the roads and create more hazards for residents and students trying to get to school.
WTF Bruce?!
Correct your mistake,
The jazzersize instructor is not and will never be a real city manager. Absolutely zero budget and financial know how.
What she is good at is increasing the huge staff operational costs and continues to sync the city into abyss.
The road deaths and destruction continues with the families pain and suffering And the last seats keep mounting, of course.
Encinitas is heading into bankruptcy territory. 🤮
The only hope is for the other council members to overrule Bruce and get going and firing the Jazzercise instructor and getting a real city manager.
By the way, you should also get rid of the gaps City Hall head bike trap designer.
I guess Bruce likes Blakespear's gimp's road designs.
He is keeping the same Blakespear road designer kept in place by the AZ Jazzercize Instructor. Bruce has asked this AZ Jazzercize instructor to prepare his budget and implimentation plan for this upcoming year. ....
Ready team, start the music... and a one and a two, boom pa boom pa... that right girls, kick those knees higher......
The peasant tax payers are left arguing over whether they can volunteer their time and can step up and submit for shitty grants managed by a defuncted MPO (SANDAG) while the millions of tax dollars we pay for maintenance of our stairs, streets, and storm drains, and police services through the sheriffs contract are diverted the AZ Wrecks Manager blowted City Hall staff with huge unfitting salaries and even bigger pension contribution.
The City will not get better until this City Council appoints a real City Manager.
Luke - When you get back from Vaca., you need to step up and take control of the situation.
We see Bruce's judgement is off, and the other CC members need your leadership.
You wanted that roundabout for ages? What happened to your boy Kranz, why couldn’t he stand up for you and get it done for his block? Blaming this on the new Council doesn’t fly. Tony had 12 years. What happened, Tony? Why cry about it now and everyone knows you’d be using the two ladies to write that grant for you lazy gonna be lazy always.
Of course, the street stairs are closed. They’re gonna start closing roads cause this city does not believe in preventative maintenance..
What Bruce is proposing with his Jazzercise instructor is to just continue to spend an excess on huge budgets for staff raises and pensions.
It’s not going to get any better until the other council members convince or out vote Bruce, to put the Jazzercise instructor back in the parks and wreck department and hire a real city manager:
Get the millions that lady showed the city has neglected to collect in rental taxes and it would be a start to fund these basics. Start with Grover and his illegal vacation rental.
Months ago someone predicted Luke'd be skipping meetings for lacrosse games. Good call. Dumbass shoulda just let Jim tank the item but Luke chimed in anyway. Now he directly pissed off a buncha Leucadia voters just to spite Tony. Classic Rachel hate motivated fuckup.
Kranz sold out to the BIA, damaged all of Leucadia by installing a bifurcating fence, and did absolutely nothing for pedestrians, bicyclist, or motorists in his own community except implement deadly road conditions with Dr Worley, Brodee, and Ryan all dead as a result. Show what was the city payout on Dr Worleys death?
He went backwards on projects and couldn’t even move forward a quiet zone.
Even the gimp owner established a quiet zone in her neighborhood for decades now.
Kranz is and always will be a loser. He should move back to Minnesota.
Now he whines to the new city council for those gs he made worse. What a loser.
Kranz''s best part of his comments were when he acknowledges that he is hated in Encinitas for being a BIA whore and selling out and making his own neighborhood of Leucadia much much worse during this 12 years of destruction on the City Council.
At least , he even knows he's a loser. I'm not convinced that BIAspear understands what a loser she really is by also being a BIA whore.
That might even be worth watching the replay to hear him say those words not that it salvages his well deserved crappy reputation. He is no comeback kid, Gonzalez is going to have to find another shill to put up for mayor.
Check out the news today. The Gonzo and predator's buddies at Qcom are getting popped by the po po too.
Soon many of the freakshow will be behind bars.
I can't wait until BIAspear, Kranz and other freakshow are behind bars for their crimes against citizen's public health, liberties, and livelihioods during the dark COVID years.
America has the best system of justice in the world. I trust judges and juries. Anyone who gets convicted probably deserves it.
Now your turn.
Say that about Trump, Peter Navaro, Papa Kushner, Steve Bannon, Roger Stone, Mike Lindell, Rudy Giuliani, Paul Manafort, Michael Flynn, Papadoupoulis, and the piece of shit domestic terrorists from Jan 6. I’ll even add anyone convicted for rioting after the Floyd murder.
Calling in would've been the responsible thing to do. Too bad he couldn't be bothered to do it! He also should've sent his letter to Bruce or Kathy and not his sidepiece to read into the record. Assuming he even wrote it.
The council is suck in the weeds talking about art and finger painting, when nothing is mentioned about the overall financial health of the city.
How are the revenues compared to the expenditures forecast over the next 10 years?
What operations costs are going up and how much of the huge tax revenues collected on some of the highest priced property in the country being budgeted to maintain the existing infrastructure?
I didn't hear or see one comment or goal related to completing a Long Term Financial Plan, and we know why......
Bruce put a Jazzerize Instructor in charge of developing a budget and plan to right the City Hall. Secondly, the Assistant City Manager, Jace doesn't even have a college degree. for god sakes, you could have taken a class or two in accounting and received some sort of degree before being appointed to the Ass City Manager position.
Sad Sad conditions down as City Hall. D Street Stairs closed. Beacons beach eroding daily. All the $70 million sand pump and pushed with the deisel bulldozers in front of the seawalls is more than 1/2 gone, and roads look worse than San Diego with no plan moving forward.
Luke- Please come back from vacation with renewed energy to take the reigns. Bruce is clearly not up to the task. 😢
Kranz is “sad“ that people hate him. No self reflection as to why. He claims it was politics, he can tell himself that. The reality is his years of prioritizing trophy projects over basic safety, leaving a wake of horribly designed projects over his 12 years, and acting out his history of belligerently toward anyone who disagreed with him. No one started out hating him because “politics,“ he got them to that place. He can’t own that which is why a majority of voters gave him the boot.
Tony was surprised by the reaction from the Graves twins and their coven. Being startled is normal when that batch of harpies starts violently shaking, their eyes rolling back in their heads and they hiss like alley cats. It's not because they hate you Tony, it's because they're fucking mental. They also hate you of course but that's not the root of the issue.
Yeah anyway Kranz lost the vote stop blaming others for the atmosphere Kranz created for himself. That he was "surprised" tells us everything about the delusion that is Kranz world.
Kranz was in local politics and totally understands people disliking him, but the level of irrational hate both Rachel Graves and Natalie Settoon bring to the city council meetings is what he was referring to. Those two are out of control and somehow they are pulling the strings of Luke, Jim, and San Antonio
As if we needed anymore proof, last night sealed the deal. Bruce is so weak. Jim is the only one with the balls to lead us forward. O'hara for Mayor 2026.
Bruce showed again that he's the only newly elected who actually cares about Encinitas and puts it first. LukeJim's top priority is following his teams goal of getting revenge on the previous admin. Same as what Trump's doing in Washington.
No revenge. Point to Kranz's "improvements" and name one that did not make the area worse. One. Looking out for residents is more like it.
If Ehlers thinks he can buy votes from the planned comeback that Gonzalez promises, he can't buy the votes. If he thinks they won't go nasty hard to unseat him in 2026 because he played nice with them, they will go nasty hard.
Luke, Jim, and Marco protected residents. That is not hate, that is not revenge, that is simply not throwing our good money after bad.
Rootless, lifeless, metropolitan drones who have a permanent thousand yard stare due to an existence void of any meaning other than waiting for the next iphone version.
Sorry not sorry your boy Kranz didn't get what he wanted. Couldn't get it done in 12 years sitting on the bench now you guys want to pitch a toddler tantrum? Get a clue y'all look ridiculous.
Tony lost because he got tired, complacent, and lazy. He fell into the trap that he could coast on the power of incumbency. He got arrogant in thinking that he didn’t have to work for votes. He didn’t campaign or raise money. When voters see that you aren’t hustling for their vote, why would they believe you are hustling to represent them?
Bruce is also a strong candidate. He also had somewhat the power of incumbency coming from a council seat. And Bruce was willing to show up for shaking hands and kissing babies.
The MAGA dummies are grossly misreading a mandate if they think Tony’s loss was in any way because of his positions or policies. It wasn’t.
Don't forget the anger management issues. More than a few have felt physically threatened. Add in complacency and laziness that btw he brought with him, he didn't become those things after election, and you've got a real piece of work that needs to stay home and tend bees.
I remember one meeting around the Housing element when Tony didn’t get his way and Blakespear was on the opposite side of the vote. He said something personal and way out of line. The crowd booed him loudly. Blakespear handled it beautifully. She stepped up and stopped the crowd from booing. She basically said I’m a big girl, and I can take it, I got this.
With the DOW down 1200 again, an explainer for the shithole losers:
Two rules in international trade:
1.) Businesses like predictability.
2.) Risk has a price.
Businesses are constantly making investments with a business case. Do we invest in additional production capacity? Do we invest in automation? Do we invest to add manufacturing in the US? Do we invest to build inventory?
Each of these investment possibilities has a business case. The business case includes assumptions about what prices will be, what sales will be, what profit margins can be expected, what customer demand will be.
What Trump is doing with on again, off again tariffs is creating chaos. It’s impossible to make any assumptions for any business case. If I’m Nike, I don’t know if shoes are going to cost $100 or $250 with a massive tariff. Obviously how many shoes customers will buy depends on price, so I don’t know how many to make. And with an unpredictable and mercurial government in the US, investing in US manufacturing is risky. Will they change the rules again because they don’t like a Tweet we made and try to shut down our factory?
Risk has a price.
With uncertainty comes risk. If we assume tariffs are a short term problem and invest in continuing to make and ship products in quantity to the US and we’re wrong, then we will have a glut of product. We’ll have to pay for additional warehouse space and maybe slash profits or even sell at a loss to purge inventory.
If we cut back on production assuming the tariffs will hit, then we will have to pay to renegotiate our shipping contracts because we won’t be hitting our volume obligations. We may start laying people off. If we are wrong, we’ll be short staff and have to hire and train people again.
All of this uncertainty and risk gets priced in. If we are going to continue to do business with America, and we now know that America is capable of such uncertainty and risk, then we need more money to guard against losses stemming from the chaos.
No matter how this tariff BS ends, you, the US consumer will be paying more for products. Businesses will price the risk, and raise their prices as insurance against the chaos. And they have a long memory. They will remember for decades that the US is always just one election away from the shithole losers throwing their business plans into chaos again. So those price hikes will be permanent.
8:55 simple profit taking from DOW being up 3,000 yesterday, this is nothing new. Apparently you haven't been investing enough to see real volatility. I'll take a 3,000 up day and 1,000 for 66% net gain any day of the week.
Tomorrow will be an up day going into the weekend, always is after a down day. I guess I'll have to rub your nose in it again.
This quote speaks to you.... "The only people who worry about day to day volatility are the people who shouldn't and can't afford to invest in the market" - Warren Buffet
Work on paying off your mortgage, then maybe invest when you have some money and you're not so stressed about day to day market activities. You wouldn't last a day on Wall Street.
If you nervous sell the covered calls and grab some premium douche bag.
8:55 More bull shit eh? You can't even pay off your mortgage and yet you wanna tell everyone how the economy works. LOL. You must be pretty narcissistic to think your opinions regarding our economy is of value.
This is same guy who told us yesterday that this was a dead cat bounce then did a 180 and told us it was a bull trap. You don't know what you're talking about.
This is the same guy who tell us Blakespear is the GOAT. 🤣
Tony gets voted out yet continues working for the residents. Meanwhile Luke couldn't be bothered to show up and sends in a F.U. note to the residents. I never coulda imagined these fucktards would inadvertently make loser Tony into a hero.
Calling it now. Next election Chris or June are going to replace failure Luke. Luke's handlers smell what's coming so watch for when they start preemptively attacking challengers.
"Continues working for the residents?" That spin won't fly. Kranz was mean as usual and won't say why he didn't get this done the 12 years he was in office. Blame game as usual.
Your Luke lies are just that. Let's see the clip of him saying what you claim he said. We'll wait. And wait. So predictable. You get zero traction because it never happened and everyone knows that.
9:32 the clip of him saying it is here (you'll have to copy and paste the URL because we can't put hyperlinks in comments) https://www.instagram.com/reel/DGRJ1fszF3B/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
You're sending us to a spun up Instagram? Is this like that new Barth-Gonzalez fb page that tells the reader "you don't have to watch the meetings, we that for you?" Howzabout the source statement? Oh that's right it'd reveal you as a liar.
I sent Luke an email well over a week ago to his city council email address and got an out of office reply that he won't be back until April 16...3 weeks off? What gives? That's unusual.
You care because why? A trip to the other side of the world warrants more days away, if you must know his business. If you have an emergency, call 9-1-1. Another nothingburger, try again.
I care because he's our representative and both Marco and Jim cited his absence as a huge factor in their votes, which screws the majority of my neighborhood who have wanted this roundabout for years. And don't blame Tony because he got it approved, Bruce approved it on planning commission and funds kept getting diverted to other more important projects. And that's fine, those other projects really were more important, but now we had an opportunity to use SANDAG funds for this and Jim used it for his own political theatre
What’s with the CO2 lady? Sounds like a Brando commercial up there. CO2, it’s what plant crave. Hey, CO2 kook, go suck on your tailpipe if you think co2 is so great, nobody trying live in a greenhouse.
She’s basically showing shitty PowerPoint slides she copied from the internet to a drowning person about how water is needed to make plants grow and sustain life.
10:32 DOW was down 1,000, not 1,600. That's simple profit taking from the previous day when we were up 3,000. I remember you stating that this was a Bull Trap, boy were you wrong, if it was a bull trap the market would've been down more than 3,000, which it wasn't.
Furthermore gold set a new all time record high today and was up $112. Oil was down $2 back to 5 year lows, that's great news for our transportation sector.
Yesterday the DOW was up 3,000. Of course there was some profit taking today, there always will be after big up days, that's why the market was down.
I'll take 3,000 points up and 1,000 down any time.
I wouldn't be surprised if tomorrow was an up day heading into the weekend.
Over all in the next 90 days this market will be setting new records and I can promise that.
This quote speaks to you.... "The only people who worry about day to day volatility are the people who shouldn't and can't afford to invest in the market" - Warren Buffet
Work on paying off your mortgage that you told us you have, then maybe invest when you're not so stressed about money.
2:41 The markets did significantly better when Trump was in office compared to Bided, that's a fact.
When Biden was in office we saw two years of market decline. In November of 2021 the NASDAQ was at 16,000 and cratered, it took till December of 2023 before the NASDAQ was at 16,000 again.
Bottom line Trump has been historically better for the markets and will be again.
Joy took time off for an emergency, the illness and eventual death of her husband. But Luke skips out for a vacay when he knows we're already down one council member? Completely irresponsible and selfish
They get to take vacations. This item was added after Luke had left, by Ehlers, under pressure that he sadly caved to from Kranz. Spin again. Do better. Facts matter.
11:36 the Birmingham item was added after Joy left when her husband died and not one person on the council mentioned her last night or said they shouldn't vote on it without her there like they did for Luke
Oh they'll be back they're only beginning to circle as part of their comeback tour. The Stones are a new addition to the audience. Ask city hall who is taking their instructional classes on how the place operates. You guessed it among the Kranz crew isMali Woods Drake is front and center taking notes and laying plans. Farhad's another one inching his way closer.
Good on Luke for admitting he has a problem and getting help. Taking these steps shows how brave he really is. Luke we're all praying for your recovery and casting out those demons! 🙏🏾
So let's talk Grover. Why does he have an unpermitted short term rental? Kranz looked the other way that's why. Grover is all over social media kinda hard to miss.
If we agree that the Save Encinitas Now Instagram account routinely posts dehumanizing and disgusting content, then why is Luke Shaffer following the account with both his personal and his campaign account?
Follow-up question: why are Jim O’Hara and Marco San Antonio also following the account?
Final question Bruce:
Why is your campaign account following this disgusting source of garbage?
3:53 you are asking the wrong person but I get it you want Tony back in office so want to use what someone else does against Bruce. Weird. You could ask the offenders, but that doesn't serve your purposes.
Stop with your nothing burger arguments. No one cares who follows who. Kind of like when you kept claiming you were gonna turn in for living in the wrong district and it disintegrated before everyone’s eyes find something real or get over the fact that you now have to use the front door.
No. I don’t care what anyone does at the national level as long as they don’t bring it to their job here. I just don’t care and obviously neither do most of the voters. Gonzalez wore that one out and it got him nowhere.
Hilarious how you care so much about who our new councilmembers follow—but look who Joy supports. Same people crying “misinformation” while quietly endorsing it. Hypocrites.
Most Encinitans have lost the battle in their search for unbiased information about events in the city, because there's no local press anymore, other than the Coast News. No UT coverage, No North County paper. Just a bunch of blogs, Facebook sites and Instagram feeds that have become the domain of extreme folks on both sides. And worst of all, most of it is just people talking S@#$ about people they don't even know, on a personal level. Sad times.....
Last time I checked, this is a free country. Councilmembers can follow whoever they damn well want to.
It’s honestly embarrassing you got your feelings hurt over a single Instagram post. Bad on Bruce for trying to stifle free speech just to keep a few miserable voices happy.
Save Encinitas Now is a valid and growing source of local news. Of course, people submit content—and yes, it gets shared elsewhere like at council meetings, on Nextdoor, Facebook, and beyond. Oh wow, someone sent a clip to SEN and then shared the same video at a council meeting!
There’s no big “gotcha” here, moron. Just truth.
And the best part? The more you whine; the more engagement SEN gets. Over 2 million views and climbing. Keep it up—it’s doing wonders for reach. 😉
Nothing like sound of hubris. Were you typing that all with one hand or dictating? I’ve seen SEN, at what point will the mission be over and the city saved? Or is the plan to just keep going on being uber karens who are acting a little drunk on privilege?
As does your crew. How is vandalizing Tesla’s and putting up signs with the F word while families are driving by constitute cool under the first amendment? Both sides are idiots
Second, profanity is absolutely protected speech under the first amendment. I’d wager you have heard whatever word was on that sign come out of your own mouth.
The great George Carlin was very good at being the court jester—making people laugh while forcing the powerful to reexamine serious issues.
He had a bit about “Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television.” He got arrested and charged in Wisconsin for performing the bit. As the Supreme Court clarified the law in other cases, they actually wrote about Carlin’s comedy bit and arrest.
Here's an easy test to figure out if a page or account is run by clowns with a MAGA agenda.
✅ Has a noticeable MAGA agenda. ✅ Openly supports MAGA candidates. ✅ Is anonymous but the local MAGA's aren't whining about it. ✅ Blocks anyone who disagrees with them but MAGA's aren't whining about it. ✅ Spreads lies while claiming to be truth but MAGA's aren't whining about it. ✅ Openly defended and supported by the MAGA's. ✅ Directs people how they should vote.
The test works for SEN, EKIR, Insider, Uncensored, this blog, etc.
What did you expect from a mid twenties tranny who never has had a real job and wanted to be a school board trustee for tweens? Good gawd the people dodged a bullet right there. He's a bugman that will ruin peoples lives. He should be doing hard time in Blythe picking strawberries for the next 30 years. He deserves to be well, we'll leave it in Blythe
Everyone need to SLOW THEIR ROLL! I need a round-a-bout in EAST ENCINITAS! Let's do one with lots and lots of signs in the name of safety. And might I suggest a cat sanctuary in the middle of it? Scissoring Hill 92024 needs representation and this is a step in the right direction. - The Shyndler
You sound so ignorant. Not a shindler fan but your sex obsessions just makes you sound like a real ignoramus. Love to see you say that out loud at a council meeting. Coward ignorant.
6:40, Charlie is wise. That’s why Berkshire Hathaway sold stock like crazy as soon as Trump was elected and built the largest cash position in the history of the firm—$334B.
6:36 and today the DOW is 200 and the NASDAQ is up 140.
If you're a Progressive Dem loser, like you are you'll bitch and gripe and protest.
If you're a winner you'll buy equities at a deep discount and make a lot of money in the next year.
Biden's market crashed in November 2021, NASDAQ went from 16,000 to 10,000. It took until December 2023 for the NASDAQ to hit 16,000 again. Biden destroyed our markets.
Biden's market crashed in November 2021, NASDAQ went from 16,000 to 10,000. It took until December 2023 for the NASDAQ to hit 16,000 again. Biden destroyed our markets.
6:47 Charlie's Berkshire Hathaway set record highs under Trumps last Administration and took a two year hit under the Biden Administration. I'm sure Berkshire is loading up right now.

DeleteHey shithole losers. The markets aren’t done yet with the Trump crash.
ReplyDeleteWe still have a 400% tax hike on imports for every nation but Russia. We still have 125% tax on imports from China. We still have auto and parts tax hike adding $7000 to the cost of a car.

Nothing will change in 90 days. Trump will either crash our economy further or cave again like a little bitch. Either way, the world thinks we are a joke, and all civilized nations will seek long term to divest from the US and reduce their exposure to the batshit crazy shithole losers running the place.
China will probably dump treasuries and the 25% of the US mortgage market they own, driving rates through the roof.
It’s springtime and US farmers have already spent the money to plant this season’s export crops. They are fucked. Say goodbye to red states. Frankly they deserve it.

Rummor has it that Blakespear owns a couple of units. He must be turned in to the city.
Delete👆💯
DeleteHe was turned in, let’s see if Campbell does anything about it. Big test for her.
DeleteYES!!!!!! Ehler's finally calls out Save Encinitas Now for the jerks they are
ReplyDeleteBruce speaking out against SEN means they are closer to him and the MAGA boys than he wants people to know. SEN's also been going after Bruce .... just like Natalie did immediately following his statement. WHAT A COINCIDENCE! NOT! 🤣🤣🤣
DeleteBruce better watch his shit and figure out how to pick a real city manager.
DeleteWe all know he’s better than Kranz regarding the manage Ruth issue, but he’s doing nothing as far as budgeting for the city properly and correcting the sinking ship.
Nothing.
NGL it's kinda amazing that our council is controlled by a few hate filled MAGAtts. Mainly a Carlsbad wacko and some others who've lived here less time than my cat.

ReplyDeleteWait til Fail Gardens gets it's new 10 story fenty dens. Gonna be epic!
Why does The Shyndler continue to try to make East Encinitas a thing? And why was she wearing a lab coat to the meeting? Was she handling dangerous chemicals out in the parking lot prior to speaking? And if so, can we look forward to the additon of a hair-net, gloves and ventilation as part of her costume additions the next time she shows up and wastes everyone's time?
ReplyDeleteJIm complains that they shouldn't make a decision about Luke's district when he's not there but JIM! You jerk! YOU BROUGHT FORWARD AN AGENDA ITEM ABOUT JOY'S DISTRICT WHEN SHE'S NOT THERE. Such a hypocrite
ReplyDeleteLukeJim's a rude and entitled little troll. His political career will be little more than a footnote soon enough.
DeleteYou screwed our neighborhood Jim, we have wanted that roundabout for decades. F YOU.
ReplyDeleteHYPOCRITE: Joy is out, let me bring forward an agenda item in her district, Oh wait, an item came up about Luke's district while he's out? Clutch pearls, this is SO inappropriate! Oh, wait the people in this neighborhood WANT the roundabout? I don't fricken care, because I don't like Tony Kranz
ReplyDeleteKranz failed for 12 years in getting anything good for Leucadia.
DeleteJim comes out with a big F U to Leucadia!
Bruce is supporting huge staff operations budget bloated with excess staff recommended by The Jazzercise wreck manager. All while the city cries poor and has zero money for projects.
They’re fighting over scraps on who gets to submit stupid useless grants.
What they should be focused on is deleting the unnecessary 40 excessive full time employee positions at City Hall and taking all of that money and fundng the needed projects.
As Greg Lafave explained and showed, the city is awash in revenue.
The Jazzercise instructor will never be a competent city manager. Never.
Encinitas is continuing to head into the dark abyss. The wrecking Ball continues.
Sometimes when Jim talks you can hardly see Rachel's mouth moving.
DeleteLast I checked, Leucadia Blvd splits D1 and D2. Hygeia roundabout is as much D2 as D1.
DeleteAlso, many people in that area do NOT want another traffic circle.
Traffic circles are not roundabouts....
DeleteWow-,Bruce continues to support the Jazzersize Wreck Manager directing Blakespear and her gimp’s City Hall bike trap designer Abe continue receiving his huge salary and pensions while he continues to fuck up the roads and create more hazards for residents and students trying to get to school.
ReplyDeleteWTF Bruce?!
Correct your mistake,
The jazzersize instructor is not and will never be a real city manager. Absolutely zero budget and financial know how.
What she is good at is increasing the huge staff operational costs and continues to sync the city into abyss.
The road deaths and destruction continues with the families pain and suffering And the last seats keep mounting, of course.
Encinitas is heading into bankruptcy territory. 🤮
The only hope is for the other council members to overrule Bruce and get going and firing the Jazzercise instructor and getting a real city manager.
By the way, you should also get rid of the gaps City Hall head bike trap designer.
Very sad day and night for Encinitas. 👎
I guess Bruce likes Blakespear's gimp's road designs.
DeleteHe is keeping the same Blakespear road designer kept in place by the AZ Jazzercize Instructor. Bruce has asked this AZ Jazzercize instructor to prepare his budget and implimentation plan for this upcoming year. ....
Ready team, start the music... and a one and a two, boom pa boom pa... that right girls, kick those knees higher......
The peasant tax payers are left arguing over whether they can volunteer their time and can step up and submit for shitty grants managed by a defuncted MPO (SANDAG) while the millions of tax dollars we pay for maintenance of our stairs, streets, and storm drains, and police services through the sheriffs contract are diverted the AZ Wrecks Manager blowted City Hall staff with huge unfitting salaries and even bigger pension contribution.
The City will not get better until this City Council appoints a real City Manager.
Luke - When you get back from Vaca., you need to step up and take control of the situation.
We see Bruce's judgement is off, and the other CC members need your leadership.
Thanks,
- The Strong Women of Encinitas 💪🏾
You wanted that roundabout for ages? What happened to your boy Kranz, why couldn’t he stand up for you and get it done for his block? Blaming this on the new Council doesn’t fly. Tony had 12 years. What happened, Tony? Why cry about it now and everyone knows you’d be using the two ladies to write that grant for you lazy gonna be lazy always.
ReplyDeleteKranz has always been a fat lazy turd From Minnesota. Ask anyone that went to school with that transplant.
Deletehttps://www.encinitasca.gov/government/city-projects-initiatives/leucadia-boulevard-roundabout-at-hygeia
DeleteOf course, the street stairs are closed. They’re gonna start closing roads cause this city does not believe in preventative maintenance..
ReplyDeleteWhat Bruce is proposing with his Jazzercise instructor is to just continue to spend an excess on huge budgets for staff raises and pensions.
It’s not going to get any better until the other council members convince or out vote Bruce, to put the Jazzercise instructor back in the parks and wreck department and hire a real city manager:
* Of course, the D Street stairs are closed. They’re gonna start closing roads cause this city does not believe in preventative maintenance..
ReplyDeleteGet the millions that lady showed the city has neglected to collect in rental taxes and it would be a start to fund these basics. Start with Grover and his illegal vacation rental.
Delete👆💯 and lay off and cut budget for 40 full time employees.
DeleteMonths ago someone predicted Luke'd be skipping meetings for lacrosse games. Good call. Dumbass shoulda just let Jim tank the item but Luke chimed in anyway. Now he directly pissed off a buncha Leucadia voters just to spite Tony. Classic Rachel hate motivated fuckup.
ReplyDelete👆🏾 sober up Kranz and quit your whining. You should have done something good for Encinitas in your 12 years on CC.
DeleteKranz sold out to the BIA, damaged all of Leucadia by installing a bifurcating fence, and did absolutely nothing for pedestrians, bicyclist, or motorists in his own community except implement deadly road conditions with Dr Worley, Brodee, and Ryan all dead as a result. Show what was the city payout on Dr Worleys death?
ReplyDeleteHe went backwards on projects and couldn’t even move forward a quiet zone.
Even the gimp owner established a quiet zone in her neighborhood for decades now.
Kranz is and always will be a loser. He should move back to Minnesota.
Now he whines to the new city council for those gs he made worse. What a loser.
Kranz''s best part of his comments were when he acknowledges that he is hated in Encinitas for being a BIA whore and selling out and making his own neighborhood of Leucadia much much worse during this 12 years of destruction on the City Council.
ReplyDeleteAt least , he even knows he's a loser. I'm not convinced that BIAspear understands what a loser she really is by also being a BIA whore.
That might even be worth watching the replay to hear him say those words not that it salvages his well deserved crappy reputation. He is no comeback kid, Gonzalez is going to have to find another shill to put up for mayor.
DeleteCheck out the news today. The Gonzo and predator's buddies at Qcom are getting popped by the po po too.
DeleteSoon many of the freakshow will be behind bars.
I can't wait until BIAspear, Kranz and other freakshow are behind bars for their crimes against citizen's public health, liberties, and livelihioods during the dark COVID years.
Thank the lord light is beginning to shine! 🌎✌🏽
https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/2025/04/09/ex-qualcomm-vice-president-convicted-in-180-million-fraud-scheme/
America has the best system of justice in the world. I trust judges and juries. Anyone who gets convicted probably deserves it.
DeleteNow your turn.
Say that about Trump, Peter Navaro, Papa Kushner, Steve Bannon, Roger Stone, Mike Lindell, Rudy Giuliani, Paul Manafort, Michael Flynn, Papadoupoulis, and the piece of shit domestic terrorists from Jan 6. I’ll even add anyone convicted for rioting after the Floyd murder.
Say it.
What does a guy who scammed Qualcomm in a fraud scheme have to do with Encinitas?
DeleteWeak, 11:27. Luke did not miss the meeting for a lacrosse game. And calling in from vacation is the responsible thing to do. Try again.
ReplyDeleteI agree.
DeleteAgreed. Just sore Kranz whining....
DeleteCalling in would've been the responsible thing to do. Too bad he couldn't be bothered to do it! He also should've sent his letter to Bruce or Kathy and not his sidepiece to read into the record. Assuming he even wrote it.
Delete9:04 a.m. He would have called in; had he been made aware in time. Unfortunately, Bruce blew that for him.
DeleteDark days ahead for Encinitas.
ReplyDeleteBruce is OK on managed growth but clearly does not have a clue on how to lead a City.
First most important task is to hire a compitent City Manager - Huge Fail. F.
Get a load of the part 2 of the budget workshop here -
https://encinitas.granicus.com/player/clip/3459?view_id=7&redirect=true
The council is suck in the weeds talking about art and finger painting, when nothing is mentioned about the overall financial health of the city.
How are the revenues compared to the expenditures forecast over the next 10 years?
What operations costs are going up and how much of the huge tax revenues collected on some of the highest priced property in the country being budgeted to maintain the existing infrastructure?
I didn't hear or see one comment or goal related to completing a Long Term Financial Plan, and we know why......
Bruce put a Jazzerize Instructor in charge of developing a budget and plan to right the City Hall. Secondly, the Assistant City Manager, Jace doesn't even have a college degree. for god sakes, you could have taken a class or two in accounting and received some sort of degree before being appointed to the Ass City Manager position.
Sad Sad conditions down as City Hall. D Street Stairs closed. Beacons beach eroding daily. All the $70 million sand pump and pushed with the deisel bulldozers in front of the seawalls is more than 1/2 gone, and roads look worse than San Diego with no plan moving forward.
Luke- Please come back from vacation with renewed energy to take the reigns. Bruce is clearly not up to the task. 😢
So the Shyndler is expanding her grooming of children K-12 and has moved on to grooming the 13th grade (Mira Costa)?
ReplyDelete👆🏾💯
Delete**** City of Encinitas Real Time News****
ReplyDelete👆🏾 Watch the City's budget workshops videos. 😵💫😡
Encinitas future is looking grim.... into the financial abyss.
The voters are now praying they get a good court appointee to manage our City after the court appointed bankruptcy hearings.
Kranz is “sad“ that people hate him. No self reflection as to why. He claims it was politics, he can tell himself that. The reality is his years of prioritizing trophy projects over basic safety, leaving a wake of horribly designed projects over his 12 years, and acting out his history of belligerently toward anyone who disagreed with him.
ReplyDeleteNo one started out hating him because “politics,“ he got them to that place. He can’t own that which is why a majority of voters gave him the boot.
👆💯
DeleteTony was surprised by the reaction from the Graves twins and their coven. Being startled is normal when that batch of harpies starts violently shaking, their eyes rolling back in their heads and they hiss like alley cats. It's not because they hate you Tony, it's because they're fucking mental. They also hate you of course but that's not the root of the issue.
DeleteYeah anyway Kranz lost the vote stop blaming others for the atmosphere Kranz created for himself. That he was "surprised" tells us everything about the delusion that is Kranz world.
DeleteKranz was in local politics and totally understands people disliking him, but the level of irrational hate both Rachel Graves and Natalie Settoon bring to the city council meetings is what he was referring to. Those two are out of control and somehow they are pulling the strings of Luke, Jim, and San Antonio
DeleteAs if we needed anymore proof, last night sealed the deal. Bruce is so weak. Jim is the only one with the balls to lead us forward. O'hara for Mayor 2026.
ReplyDeleteYou're right Bruce looks like a pussy every meeting. How can he run a city when he can't even control his own meetings?
DeleteROFL Jim's not going to make it another term let alone a promotion.
DeleteGROSS. Jim doesn't even understand Roberts Rule of Order, constantly interrupting in such a smarmy condescending way
DeleteGet used to saying Mayor O'hara. He doesn't win in 2026 he gets to stay on the dais kicking ass for another two years. Zero downside to a run. GO JIM!
DeleteBruce showed again that he's the only newly elected who actually cares about Encinitas and puts it first. LukeJim's top priority is following his teams goal of getting revenge on the previous admin. Same as what Trump's doing in Washington.
ReplyDeleteNo revenge. Point to Kranz's "improvements" and name one that did not make the area worse. One. Looking out for residents is more like it.
DeleteIf Ehlers thinks he can buy votes from the planned comeback that Gonzalez promises, he can't buy the votes. If he thinks they won't go nasty hard to unseat him in 2026 because he played nice with them, they will go nasty hard.
Luke, Jim, and Marco protected residents. That is not hate, that is not revenge, that is simply not throwing our good money after bad.
Gonzalez is a fat retarded bugman
DeleteBugmen Def:
DeleteRootless, lifeless, metropolitan drones who have a permanent thousand yard stare due to an existence void of any meaning other than waiting for the next iphone version.
No vibe, no spirit, no energy.
Essentially a hollow man.
🙍♀️
Luke was in Thailand for a previously scheduled pillow fight.
ReplyDeleteSorry not sorry your boy Kranz didn't get what he wanted. Couldn't get it done in 12 years sitting on the bench now you guys want to pitch a toddler tantrum? Get a clue y'all look ridiculous.
DeleteTony lost because he got tired, complacent, and lazy. He fell into the trap that he could coast on the power of incumbency. He got arrogant in thinking that he didn’t have to work for votes. He didn’t campaign or raise money. When voters see that you aren’t hustling for their vote, why would they believe you are hustling to represent them?
ReplyDeleteBruce is also a strong candidate. He also had somewhat the power of incumbency coming from a council seat. And Bruce was willing to show up for shaking hands and kissing babies.
The MAGA dummies are grossly misreading a mandate if they think Tony’s loss was in any way because of his positions or policies. It wasn’t.
Don't forget the anger management issues. More than a few have felt physically threatened. Add in complacency and laziness that btw he brought with him, he didn't become those things after election, and you've got a real piece of work that needs to stay home and tend bees.
DeleteI remember one meeting around the Housing element when Tony didn’t get his way and Blakespear was on the opposite side of the vote. He said something personal and way out of line. The crowd booed him loudly. Blakespear handled it beautifully. She stepped up and stopped the crowd from booing. She basically said I’m a big girl, and I can take it, I got this.
DeleteThat’s why she’s the GOAT.
9:17 I think you mean that's why Blakespear is the PIG.
DeleteBruce should keep a spray bottle of water with him on the dais. Every time Jimbo starts acting like the obnoxious POS he is, give him a few squirts.
ReplyDeleteJim does need to get himself under control!
DeleteJim was great, called out Bruce for politicking. Let’s not act like Bruce hasn't been condescending towards the newbies.
DeleteThank you Jim, Marco, and Luke!
ReplyDeleteNotice ZERO comments on the sites that love 'em some Kranz in praise of Bruce. The thin skinned club can't even eke out credit where it's due.
ReplyDeleteWith the DOW down 1200 again, an explainer for the shithole losers:
ReplyDeleteTwo rules in international trade:
1.) Businesses like predictability.
2.) Risk has a price.
Businesses are constantly making investments with a business case. Do we invest in additional production capacity? Do we invest in automation? Do we invest to add manufacturing in the US? Do we invest to build inventory?
Each of these investment possibilities has a business case. The business case includes assumptions about what prices will be, what sales will be, what profit margins can be expected, what customer demand will be.
What Trump is doing with on again, off again tariffs is creating chaos. It’s impossible to make any assumptions for any business case. If I’m Nike, I don’t know if shoes are going to cost $100 or $250 with a massive tariff. Obviously how many shoes customers will buy depends on price, so I don’t know how many to make. And with an unpredictable and mercurial government in the US, investing in US manufacturing is risky. Will they change the rules again because they don’t like a Tweet we made and try to shut down our factory?
Risk has a price.
With uncertainty comes risk. If we assume tariffs are a short term problem and invest in continuing to make and ship products in quantity to the US and we’re wrong, then we will have a glut of product. We’ll have to pay for additional warehouse space and maybe slash profits or even sell at a loss to purge inventory.
If we cut back on production assuming the tariffs will hit, then we will have to pay to renegotiate our shipping contracts because we won’t be hitting our volume obligations. We may start laying people off. If we are wrong, we’ll be short staff and have to hire and train people again.
All of this uncertainty and risk gets priced in. If we are going to continue to do business with America, and we now know that America is capable of such uncertainty and risk, then we need more money to guard against losses stemming from the chaos.
No matter how this tariff BS ends, you, the US consumer will be paying more for products. Businesses will price the risk, and raise their prices as insurance against the chaos. And they have a long memory. They will remember for decades that the US is always just one election away from the shithole losers throwing their business plans into chaos again. So those price hikes will be permanent.
Wrong thread, loser.
DeleteWas it the wrong thread yesterday when you posted 20 times about a dead cat bounce?
DeleteOf course, some companies will look at the chaos and just decide it’s not worth it.

8:55 simple profit taking from DOW being up 3,000 yesterday, this is nothing new. Apparently you haven't been investing enough to see real volatility. I'll take a 3,000 up day and 1,000 for 66% net gain any day of the week.
DeleteTomorrow will be an up day going into the weekend, always is after a down day. I guess I'll have to rub your nose in it again.
This quote speaks to you.... "The only people who worry about day to day volatility are the people who shouldn't and can't afford to invest in the market" - Warren Buffet
Work on paying off your mortgage, then maybe invest when you have some money and you're not so stressed about day to day market activities. You wouldn't last a day on Wall Street.
If you nervous sell the covered calls and grab some premium douche bag.
8:55 More bull shit eh? You can't even pay off your mortgage and yet you wanna tell everyone how the economy works. LOL. You must be pretty narcissistic to think your opinions regarding our economy is of value.
DeleteThis is same guy who told us yesterday that this was a dead cat bounce then did a 180 and told us it was a bull trap. You don't know what you're talking about.
This is the same guy who tell us Blakespear is the GOAT. 🤣
Tony gets voted out yet continues working for the residents. Meanwhile Luke couldn't be bothered to show up and sends in a F.U. note to the residents. I never coulda imagined these fucktards would inadvertently make loser Tony into a hero.
ReplyDeleteCalling it now. Next election Chris or June are going to replace failure Luke. Luke's handlers smell what's coming so watch for when they start preemptively attacking challengers.
Luke was toast the second he was recorded in a public meeting saying he wanted to shoot construction workers.
DeleteHe done, brah.
Then he made it worse the following week with his “It’s a conspiracy and I’m a victim” speech.
"Continues working for the residents?" That spin won't fly. Kranz was mean as usual and won't say why he didn't get this done the 12 years he was in office. Blame game as usual.
DeleteYour Luke lies are just that. Let's see the clip of him saying what you claim he said. We'll wait. And wait. So predictable. You get zero traction because it never happened and everyone knows that.
9:32,
DeleteEveryone saw it.
He said he personally would pick up a rifle and tell them you’re not bringing your trucks in here.
What’s the rifle for?
Who’s driving those trucks?

DeleteLame duck Luke.
DeleteTick tock.
Luke was on a planned vacation he alerted city hall to before he ran for D1.
DeleteI sent Luke an email well over a week ago to his city council email address and got an out of office reply that he won't be back until April 16...3 weeks off? What gives? That's unusual.
ReplyDeleteYou care because why? A trip to the other side of the world warrants more days away, if you must know his business. If you have an emergency, call 9-1-1. Another nothingburger, try again.
DeleteThree weeks is a lot of pillow fight.
DeleteA 3-4 week "vacation" without access to a phone. Bruce said he didn't know Luke wasn't going to be there. Sounds like rehab.
DeleteI care because he's our representative and both Marco and Jim cited his absence as a huge factor in their votes, which screws the majority of my neighborhood who have wanted this roundabout for years. And don't blame Tony because he got it approved, Bruce approved it on planning commission and funds kept getting diverted to other more important projects. And that's fine, those other projects really were more important, but now we had an opportunity to use SANDAG funds for this and Jim used it for his own political theatre

This won’t age well.
I’m going to repost this to rub your nose in it.
Today. . .
DOW down 1600.
You can rub all you like we're on the same side btw, but your long posts that take away from local issues discussions are not winning you any fans.
DeleteDid you watch last night's council meeting? Any thoughts there?
Four years I read comments here shitting on Biden and Harris.
DeleteWhat’s good for the goose is good for the gander.
And those comments were posted on the wrong site, too. Two wrongs don't make a right. Go away.
DeleteThe same cycle continues. Republicans wreck the economy, Democrats have to come in and fix it.
Delete10:32 DOW was down 1,000, not 1,600. That's simple profit taking from the previous day when we were up 3,000. I remember you stating that this was a Bull Trap, boy were you wrong, if it was a bull trap the market would've been down more than 3,000, which it wasn't.
DeleteFurthermore gold set a new all time record high today and was up $112. Oil was down $2 back to 5 year lows, that's great news for our transportation sector.
Yesterday the DOW was up 3,000. Of course there was some profit taking today, there always will be after big up days, that's why the market was down.
I'll take 3,000 points up and 1,000 down any time.
I wouldn't be surprised if tomorrow was an up day heading into the weekend.
Over all in the next 90 days this market will be setting new records and I can promise that.
This quote speaks to you.... "The only people who worry about day to day volatility are the people who shouldn't and can't afford to invest in the market" - Warren Buffet

Morgan Stanley is the next tent over. Enough on the market.....
Delete2:12, are you arguing that the markets have been generally higher since Trump took office?
Delete2:41 The markets did significantly better when Trump was in office compared to Bided, that's a fact.
DeleteWhen Biden was in office we saw two years of market decline. In November of 2021 the NASDAQ was at 16,000 and cratered, it took till December of 2023 before the NASDAQ was at 16,000 again.
Bottom line Trump has been historically better for the markets and will be again.
Jim's the same unlikable and pompous prick he's always been. If it wasn't for his wife he'd be on the street getting food from CRC.

DeleteJoy took time off for an emergency, the illness and eventual death of her husband. But Luke skips out for a vacay when he knows we're already down one council member? Completely irresponsible and selfish
ReplyDeleteThe opposite. Joy knew her husband was sick and dying. His dead now and she should be back to work if she’s gonna do anything.
DeleteOn the other hand looks enjoying good present time with his family that’s alive. I respect that. 💪
4:07 how compassionate
Deleteso his pleasure comes before community. Copy.
ReplyDeleteThey get to take vacations. This item was added after Luke had left, by Ehlers, under pressure that he sadly caved to from Kranz. Spin again. Do better. Facts matter.
DeleteThe item was added several days ago in accordance with the Brown act noticing requirement. This is literally his job. Facts matter.
Delete11:36 the Birmingham item was added after Joy left when her husband died and not one person on the council mentioned her last night or said they shouldn't vote on it without her there like they did for Luke
DeleteAdded after she left, not one hour outside the required noticing limit like with Luke. No apples to apples. Try again. Do better. Facts matter.
DeletePoor tony got the Catherine treatment at last nights council meeting. Boo hoo!!! If they both never return, maybe they each learned a lesson.
ReplyDeleteOh they'll be back they're only beginning to circle as part of their comeback tour. The Stones are a new addition to the audience. Ask city hall who is taking their instructional classes on how the place operates. You guessed it among the Kranz crew isMali Woods Drake is front and center taking notes and laying plans. Farhad's another one inching his way closer.

Good on Luke for admitting he has a problem and getting help. Taking these steps shows how brave he really is. Luke we're all praying for your recovery and casting out those demons! 🙏🏾
ReplyDeleteTry again. Do better. Facts matter. You are a sad trumpy little creature.
DeleteKevin Sabellico and Jeremy Blakespear sure have a bunch of time on their hands.
ReplyDeleteSo let's talk Grover. Why does he have an unpermitted short term rental? Kranz looked the other way that's why. Grover is all over social media kinda hard to miss.
ReplyDeletepayday for a city worker that's why
DeleteQuestion for Bruce Ehlers:
ReplyDeleteIf we agree that the Save Encinitas Now Instagram account routinely posts dehumanizing and disgusting content, then why is Luke Shaffer following the account with both his personal and his campaign account?
Follow-up question: why are Jim O’Hara and Marco San Antonio also following the account?
Final question Bruce:
Why is your campaign account following this disgusting source of garbage?
Joy is the only council member not to be subscribed to this filth.
Delete3:53 you are asking the wrong person but I get it you want Tony back in office so want to use what someone else does against Bruce. Weird. You could ask the offenders, but that doesn't serve your purposes.
DeleteDo better. Try again.
3:56 Joy and Bruce. Facts matter, right?
DeleteBruce is subscribed to follow the filth. Go to their instagram account and look at the list of followers.
DeleteSave Encinitas now is good quality news.
DeleteAnyone saying bad things about it is part of the problem for Encinitas.
4:10, then you don’t mind anyone else talking about who is subscribed to receive their content right?
DeleteStop with your nothing burger arguments. No one cares who follows who. Kind of like when you kept claiming you were gonna turn in for living in the wrong district and it disintegrated before everyone’s eyes find something real or get over the fact that you now have to use the front door.
Delete4:29,
DeleteLet’s say someone in 2023 exposed the fact that all of the progressive city council members were following a local Antifa group on social media.
Would that have been worth a discussion?
No. I don’t care what anyone does at the national level as long as they don’t bring it to their job here. I just don’t care and obviously neither do most of the voters. Gonzalez wore that one out and it got him nowhere.
DeleteCorrect. I'm fascinated by the bugmen syndrome and therefore dug into it somewhat.
DeleteGonzalez is the personification of a bugmen.
Hilarious how you care so much about who our new councilmembers follow—but look who Joy supports.
DeleteSame people crying “misinformation” while quietly endorsing it. Hypocrites.
4:13- it’s public information… you can talk all you want.
DeleteMost Encinitans have lost the battle in their search for unbiased information about events in the city, because there's no local press anymore, other than the Coast News. No UT coverage, No North County paper. Just a bunch of blogs, Facebook sites and Instagram feeds that have become the domain of extreme folks on both sides. And worst of all, most of it is just people talking S@#$ about people they don't even know, on a personal level. Sad times.....
Delete👆 that’s why we are so lucky to have this blog for Encinitas real time news. ❤️
DeleteLast time I checked, this is a free country. Councilmembers can follow whoever they damn well want to.
ReplyDeleteIt’s honestly embarrassing you got your feelings hurt over a single Instagram post. Bad on Bruce for trying to stifle free speech just to keep a few miserable voices happy.
Save Encinitas Now is a valid and growing source of local news. Of course, people submit content—and yes, it gets shared elsewhere like at council meetings, on Nextdoor, Facebook, and beyond. Oh wow, someone sent a clip to SEN and then shared the same video at a council meeting!
There’s no big “gotcha” here, moron. Just truth.
And the best part? The more you whine; the more engagement SEN gets. Over 2 million views and climbing. Keep it up—it’s doing wonders for reach. 😉
Nothing like sound of hubris. Were you typing that all with one hand or dictating? I’ve seen SEN, at what point will the mission be over and the city saved? Or is the plan to just keep going on being uber karens who are acting a little drunk on privilege?
DeleteI think saving Encinitas now is awesome. Great current news.
DeleteIf you don’t like it don’t follow, or better yet block.
Or, you could try thinking for yourself......
DeleteSave Encinitas Now is a pile of steaming shit.

DeleteNo surprise that the SEN clowns are the same clowns on this blog.
ReplyDeleteSo SEN associating the downtrodden with rats is First Amendment.
ReplyDeleteBut criticizing them for it or calling attention to elected officials subscribing to that garbage isn’t.
The MAGA constitution has two directions.
Stuff we like, and stuff that makes us victims.
As does your crew. How is vandalizing Tesla’s and putting up signs with the F word while families are driving by constitute cool under the first amendment? Both sides are idiots
DeleteFirst of all, ALL cars matter.
Delete(See how stupid that sounds?)
Second, profanity is absolutely protected speech under the first amendment. I’d wager you have heard whatever word was on that sign come out of your own mouth.
The great George Carlin was very good at being the court jester—making people laugh while forcing the powerful to reexamine serious issues.
He had a bit about “Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television.” He got arrested and charged in Wisconsin for performing the bit. As the Supreme Court clarified the law in other cases, they actually wrote about Carlin’s comedy bit and arrest.

Here's an easy test to figure out if a page or account is run by clowns with a MAGA agenda.
ReplyDelete✅ Has a noticeable MAGA agenda.
✅ Openly supports MAGA candidates.
✅ Is anonymous but the local MAGA's aren't whining about it.
✅ Blocks anyone who disagrees with them but MAGA's aren't whining about it.
✅ Spreads lies while claiming to be truth but MAGA's aren't whining about it.
✅ Openly defended and supported by the MAGA's.
✅ Directs people how they should vote.
The test works for SEN, EKIR, Insider, Uncensored, this blog, etc.
👆 how gay. Sounds tranny gay not just fag gay.
DeleteHow stupid you both sound. One with a MAGA obsession the other with a sex fixation. Suspect you may be impotent amIright?
DeleteDuhhhhh
DeleteBe an adult and block the accounts, you don’t want to see.
Delete👆💯
DeleteKevin S is such a whiny little girl.
DeleteWhat did you expect from a mid twenties tranny who never has had a real job and wanted to be a school board trustee for tweens? Good gawd the people dodged a bullet right there. He's a bugman that will ruin peoples lives. He should be doing hard time in Blythe picking strawberries for the next 30 years. He deserves to be well, we'll leave it in Blythe
DeleteEveryone need to SLOW THEIR ROLL! I need a round-a-bout in EAST ENCINITAS! Let's do one with lots and lots of signs in the name of safety. And might I suggest a cat sanctuary in the middle of it? Scissoring Hill 92024 needs representation and this is a step in the right direction.
ReplyDelete- The Shyndler
You sound so ignorant. Not a shindler fan but your sex obsessions just makes you sound like a real ignoramus. Love to see you say that out loud at a council meeting. Coward ignorant.
Delete👆😂
DeleteMay day may day, I'm out of cat nip!

DeleteThere are a stunning number of parallels between Trump’s second term and Fyre Festival 2.
ReplyDelete👆Deflection rejected
DeleteLooks like the markets are gonna be up again today, I’ll run your nose in the gains when the market closes.
ReplyDeleteSo far another record day for Gold, 3,260 per ounce. GO Team Trump! MAGA
Implied open on the futures market is red numbers across the board.
DeleteIs there anything the cult won’t lie about?
👆 last two posts, deflection rejected
DeleteFocus on Encinitas.
Since April 3, the DOW30 has been:
Delete-1679
-2231
-349
-320
+2963
-1015
Just to get back to even, today has to be +2637.
That’s unlikely, because international trade policy is being run by shithole losers trying to Make America Alabama Again.

6:40, Charlie is wise. That’s why Berkshire Hathaway sold stock like crazy as soon as Trump was elected and built the largest cash position in the history of the firm—$334B.
DeleteHe knows shithole loser when he sees one.

6:36 and today the DOW is 200 and the NASDAQ is up 140.
DeleteIf you're a Progressive Dem loser, like you are you'll bitch and gripe and protest.
If you're a winner you'll buy equities at a deep discount and make a lot of money in the next year.
Biden's market crashed in November 2021, NASDAQ went from 16,000 to 10,000. It took until December 2023 for the NASDAQ to hit 16,000 again. Biden destroyed our markets.

Delete6:47 Charlie's Berkshire Hathaway set record highs under Trumps last Administration and took a two year hit under the Biden Administration. I'm sure Berkshire is loading up right now.
DeleteThis guy who was illegally deported is going to be rich.
ReplyDeleteHe’s going to be living next door to Shay Moss, Ruby Friedman, the management of Dominion Voting Systems, and the Sandy Hook families.
Turns out MAGA criminal behavior is quite lucrative for some people.
👆🏾 Last three reject.
