The rise and fall of Monica Cannon-Grant

Tell 1: "The greatest gift Jesus gave us is the bullshit detector." My bullshit detector tells me that anyone who says that the greatest gift from Jesus is a bullshit detector is spewing bullshit.

Tell 2: Dianne Wilkerson was convicted in two decades for financial crimes. In the late 1990s when she admitted to tax evasion and then again in the 2000s. Ms Wilkerson clearly could not stop herself from committing financial crimes. Hard to take anything she says as credible.

Tell 3: Jamarhl Crawford using a website that would make Don the Con proud makes me wonder whether there is a bit of an Oreo in Mr. Crawford.

This is classic political assassination. This is also classic use and loose. The Gay rights movement began with loud people who were not proper folks. They were replaced by the folks who smelled better, talked nicer and acted with greater deference (i.e., nose browning) when the folks who had power saw potential money and votes. But only after eliminating the people who, like Ms Cannon-Grant, were no longer useful.

This also proves that the justice system of the US is still organized in a way that guilt and innocence are secondary. What matters most, as Don the Con has proven for decades, is that the money to manipulate the justice system is what matters most.

Even if Ms Cannon-Grant used funds in the same way that American leaders, including politicians, religious, academic and non-profits leaders use money not their own for personal use, but for supporting them in their "work," but transformed into a "respectable POC," or better, became a socially acceptable rainmaker (fundraiser), then there would never have been financial criminal charges. In other words, once she was no longer useful to those folks who already have money and power, it came time to get rid of her.

she has proof of Rollins' involvement with my pet Turtle which is fucking disappointing to say the least, considering he pushed that road rage story all day long.

And remember that Cannon-Grant is being tried and convicted in the media before she's had a day in court.

If only she was Sal DeMasi, a thieving scumbag who lied about dying to get out of the can and is now a lobbyist.

It's a scurrilous rag, and its graphic design and formatting is as ugly as its content. Nobody should be cooperating with them to report news. I think much less of Rachael Rollins and Jamahrl Crawford (a BPDA employee!) if they indeed did this in order to knock down a rival.

So many intriguing layers of drama right here in our bucolic coastal community.
