    1. How many meetings has Jim missed? 0
      How many meetings has Joy missed? 10+?

    2. Joy was dealing with a dying husband and is now a widow.
      How dare she miss a meeting.

      Jim attacks her shamelessly every meeting for no reason every meeting.

      Now the asshole is attacking city council from National City where he wants to ship poor Encinitas residents to. What a POS.

  2. It's not that he's busy. It's that he's rude, inconsiderate, arrogant and unaware of how tired people are of his BS.

  3. It is the lack of respect for his fellow council members along with the lack of respect for residents that is so jarring at every council meeting.

    2. Rachel lives in Carlsbad yet still keeps plaguing our meetings

    3. Rachel owns two homes in Encinitas, she has a vested interest in our city. Mali? Has nothing.

    4. Mali likes to play games She just likes to play games with others emotions.

    5. Out of town developers own homes in Encinitas too, they have vested interests in our city. Just like Rachel, who lives off of disability, but lies about it. WOnder of social security knows about her assets and the homes she owns?

      Delete
    6. Why does someone that owns two homes in the city and is extremly financially and personally involved with the councilmen refuse to live here? Its sketchier than Mali showing up for public comments every few months by far.

      Delete
    7. undeclared income and assets, multiple homes, court documents from a recent trial regarding a quilting business where Rachel admitted under oath she wanted to be paid under the table so as not to impact her disability payments...And I just discovered a handy fraud reporting page on the SSI website where I'm sharing some pretty interesting info about Rachel Graves Hill

  14. National City wants and deserves local control too. If another town suggests putting their homeless in beds in Encinitas, wouldn't you want one of our councilmembers to speak up and ask them not to do it? Oh, I guess only OUR local control matters?

    1. Exactly. The councilmen are saying Encinitas is home to a group of selfish shitbags and those are their supporters.

    2. National city opened up their beds to take overflow. The guy can rant in the parking lot in his car or just go home with his tail between his legs or maybe go to Carlsbad and lick his wounds with the Mali Woods Drake Shook dregs.

    3. SDRM opened their beds, not the people of National City.

    3. Bruce and his boys want to ship the vagabonds away to camps.

    4. That is not practical at this time. We have no place to house them. They need help now. Vista needed beds. Think about the people who would die on the streets while we waiit out your plan.

      Delete
    5. Jim scolding the visiting council member while reminiscing about his date night with Rachel at the Carlsbad council meeting. What a dick and hypocrite. Bruce letting Jim rant and denigrate someone personally while kicking out someone who doesn't appreciate Encinitas offloading their homeless problem on his home town.

      Delete
    6. There are many options besides shipping poor and ill residents 30 miles away. They wouldn't make the dbags who vote for the councilmen happy though, and that's what's important.

    7. You care more about control than you do for the unhoused.

  16. The council member is running for mayor in national city. What will their voters say when they found out he came to Encinitas to lie to help out our disgruntled politicians? That replay is going to be available tomorrow. He better hold on for a bumpy ride. Brook no liars, anywhere.

    1. What did he lie about? Please be specific.

    2. Were you not watching the meeting? Ehlers’s enumerated each of the four lies and corrected while the dude stood there.

      Delete
    3. 8:10 were your ears closed? Or are you just posting at someone else’s direction per your usual?

      Delete
    4. Do you mean something like claiming we have shelter beds when we only have a few for a specific segment of the population ( female domestic violence victims by the CRC) ?

      That's not exposing a lie, its saving face.

      Or do you mean saying its a temporary solution when SDRM has no agreement with Escondido, and is supposedly in the process of looking at land?

      That's kinda the truth, if temporary means years to never. As mentioned, their agreement with Oceanside failed quickly.

      I would call Bruce's comments making excuses and saving face. I would call Jim's comments being a defensive angry ahole.

      Delete
    5. Didn’t they talk about Vista coming back online? Maybe go watch and report back after the replay tomorrow. Be honest while you’re at it if you can.

    6. But Jim still had it right. It’s clear as a reinforcement he were called in and Joy cued him up. Make a mistake he was there politicking

      Delete
    7. Make no mistake….

    8. 8:01 Jim and Bruce accused the councilman of "campaigning". If that's what he's doing, wouldn't he be speaking on a subject his constituents SUPPORT? Seems like a bad idea to do something National City residents are against right at election time.

      My favorite part was Jim telling everyone that he had spoken at another city's council meeting as an Encinitas council meeting, but he had a "good" reason, then launching into an angry tantrum about this guy doing the same.

      The councilman didn't lie. He stated that the councilmen refused to apply for a grant to address homelessness (true), they refused to supply partial funding for the safe parking lot (true), have completely failed at supplying sufficient affordable housing (true), and are for some reason backing out of Buena Vista (true).

      Bruce responded with some half truths, Jim had his usual tantrum, and Luke and Marco stated their usual babble.

  17. Here is some great news-

    https://www.instagram.com/reel/DedO9c4DoH7/?psln=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==

    Big Service cuts the Metrolink. Another super low ridership wasteful program.

    I can’t wait to hear about the huge cuts that are coming and North County transit, disasters, coaster. That entire coaster program never met any of its goals and has super low ridership and has been just a polluting machine and death machine the entire time.

    They should end the entire coaster program, sell off the trains to some functional alignment and start using the public transit dollars on something good for those that need like flexible fleets - Pulled clean ride hailing/sharing programs. ✅

    Good times are coming, it’s another technological disruption, which is improving our mobility. ❤️

    Get those Beach crushing pollution machines off of our beautiful beach.

      It’s great news. There should be big sevice cuts to the coaster. 👌🏾🙏
      That thing is putting like 50 trips a day with super low ridership route, which is completely unnecessary and very wasteful and produces massive carcinogens for the kids to breathe while they’re on recess at their school.

      This is great news for everyone. That is unless if you’re a union slug working on old diesel engines or something or sitting there pulling a few levers. Sitting on your ass all day running over people on historical pathways to the beach. 💀💀💀💀..

      So maybe there’s two people that will lose their jobs and they’ll be hundreds of kids that won’t get cancer. 👏👏❤️❤️

      And are amazing beaches will be so much better without that polluting train running over people every month. 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌎❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️

    It’s extremely sad that the continued clown show results in deaths to our family members. 💀💀💀💀💀🩸🩸🩸🩸🩸💀💀💀💀🔥🔥🔥🔥💀💀💀.

    How embarrassing to have Encinitas City staff just winging shit left and right. At least we have a good council member with Mr. O’Hara calling them out for their incomplete reports that are spreading bullshit and causing harm in the community. Glad at least council member O’Hara lessons to professional residence that have a lot more competency than apparently our staff.

    Some serious heads, need to roll and not more residents heads. Those keep rolling all the time😭. it’s about time for some staff to leave.

    - City Council- take needed action. Get rid of the incompetence, And higher competent staff.

      Staff faces were classic. They knew they were spewing bullshit but they couldn’t control themselves and it just kept flowing…. It was tough to witness such diarrhea of the mouth. I was in the audience and felt like handing them a roll of toilet paper to wipe up the mess.

      I think honestly Jim went easy on them. If I was a council member, I would’ve scolded the shit out of them. I’m surprised they weren’t fired on the spot .

    3. What made you so upset 7:59? OHara actually making staff answer questions? or perhaps the council tabling decisions until they had all the information? or wait - was it calling out the national city council member for campaigning in Encinitas and lying about our homeless housing situation? No it had to have been then OHara and Ehlers calmly but firmly calling him out on his real purpose for being there then, having him removed when he tried to hijack the meeting.

      Which part about your “shit show“ that the rest of us were glad to see bothered you the most? How fast do you think Rimga would vote as “staff recommends and pressuring the others to vote with her, Blakespear style? Then she’d put out newsletters crowing about her “unanimous” council like it was a good thing.

      You can call it a shit show, but those with objective eyes in their heads are thrilled to see decisions hashed out in public, not behind closed doors. Witness what Blakespear just did to Esther Sanchez in Oceanside. Sneaky sneaky as always.

  26. 824. We can't provide sufficient affordable housing for all. Rimga, Brad and space chick will use the exact same deceptive message that was used in the last election. Build more density and homes for all. That is the message the developers and rich created to deceive. Freakshow parrots the message. Freakshow works for the rich.

    1. It doesn't matter what any of them say, they're all approving developments, including Bruce, Jim & Marco.

      Local control sounds like a nice idea, but they're nowhere close to achieving that and have no plans for getting there.

      If you're voting for Bruce, Ed & Marco because they'll save us from overdevelopment, you've been had. Same with last election; the councilmen played you, and this is why the main accomplishment they now claim is paving slightly more roads than past councils have.

      Delete
    2. Many of us voted for them because we could no longer tolerate the way the City was being run. Unhoused population increasing, dirty streets, deceptive development messages, infrastructure being ignored,dangerous cycle traps(.2dead), treating the unhoused like pets with no concern about open drug use and more.

  27. 910. They are also transparent and they educate the public about the truth regarding Ca Law. Bruce went to Sac. The only thing Rigma sees is a job in Sacramento and she will do everything in her power to accommodate the State. We don't want to see that ever again

    1. That is simply not true. Jim, Luke & Marco have absolutely no experience; they are unable to explain CA law because they're the ones the need the explaining.

      Bruce spins a nice story, but it isn't necessarily "the truth".

      Bruce went to Sac with his handlers as a political ploy. He was campaigning.

    2. You are entitled to your opinion as I am entitled to mine. We can't vote for Blakespears people. They are too closely aligned with the money makers and attorneys who make money from development. Do you really believe they care about the poor?

      Delete
    3. Do you believe LukeJim cares about you or even holding those seats? There's a lot of stances and posturing. Once thing is sure, development will continue until all the lots are gone. Right now, local control isn't happening.

      Delete
    4. Development can work but we need to return to developing in a sustainable way. We can change the outcome at the State. The first step is people need to organize and march right in Blakespear office and say, " enough ". Not just a fee people but 100K. Right now we have an organization that plans to target at the State level. It has been reported that Blakespear earned a 0 in local control. She is not fighting for the residents and agitators are reading a script written by private equity/ tech. Listen we can all be fooled.

    5. March into Blakespear’s office, because she alone controls the entire state govt.

  28. We were all fooled when Bruce Ehlers promised not to appoint someone to his vacant seat after becoming Mayor. He lied. And then that for replacement Bruce demanded that they would commit to not running for the seat in the next election cycle. The appointee was Marco San Antonio, who of course is running for the seat. More unkept promises, just like the promise to stop developers-- even if Luke had to pick up a rifle to stop them. How's school going? Maybe he will get a second PhD in anger management. Staff can't stand Jim, because he is a jerk, and there's no fixing that. They will still be here long after Jim is turned out.

  29. Why did tech start YIMBA? 2010 tech boom and housing was expensive in SF. They desperately needed housing to recruit workers. To protect corporate profits and to gain political influence, YIMBA was born. Most politicians will align with tech if given a chance.

  30. Should be tons of heads rolling down at City Hall today after that fucking pathetic performance last night.

    Blakespear’s traffic engineer that Ehlers kept on his team did not look very good last night and who is that babbling idiot next to him between Abe and the lady dressed for a funeral.

    It shows the residents are by far more informed experts and have more experience than staff. Staff sounded like pure ignorance. I count at least five firings from last night that should happen.

    3. It's possible people want San Antonio out because he's completely incompetent and never should have been there in the first place. Appointed. Not elected. And appointed by the Mayor who whined and cried and complained when the previous Mayor made appointments to vacant seats. But Bruce Almighty has such integrity- he PROMISED not to appoint anyone if he won. And then he PROMISED that he would insist that any appointee he selected would have to commit to only serving out the term, and NOT running in the next election. And here we are. Maybe that is why no one respects San Antonio. He's a tool and a stooge. He looks uninformed, uneducated and disengaged.

      Delete
    4. Sure, some people may not like him. The problem with Brad is that he is endorsed by Cathy Goat. He also seems mad. Please don't be so naive as to miss the connection between the land use opportunities, agitatators and maybe a personal fight between ? and ??? Be futuristic. Let me ask you? Is Brad going to put his armor on and fight ICE?
