TKC EXCLUSIVE!!! MISSOURI HOUSE DISTRICT 40 CANDIDATE WILL ROYSTER ASKED TO STOP CLAIMING COMBAT COMMISSIONER CREDENTIALS!!!



At this moment, the local political game in KC Proper is all about picking up endorsements. In the District 40 Missouri House Race this has involved a great deal of controversy.

THERE IS NOW SOME SIGNIFICANT DEBATE OVER DISTRICT 40 CANDIDATE WILL ROYSTER'S CREDENTIALS AS A COMBAT COMMISSIONER FOR JACKSON COUNTY!!!

First enacted in 1989, the Community Backed Anti-drug Tax is utilized to "COMBAT" drug use and drug-related crime in Jackson County . . . And it's usually a political nightmare.

Take a look at the ad and the credential in question:



What makes all of this interesting and newsworthy is that County legislator Dan Tarwater, who is the Chairman of the Anti-Drug committee, recently wrote a letter which claims that Royster has never served in that capacity and asks Royster to refrain from making such assertions in the future.

Check it:



Remember that not so long ago Royster had similar trouble with the AFL-CIO endorsement that TKC reported exclusively.

In this situation RATHER AWESOME TKC TIPSTERS explain: "What happened is that in 2006 Kathryn Shields appointed him during her lame duck period and he was never confirmed and Mike Sanders quickly rescinded the appointment after he took office. He never served a day as a commissioner."

The endorsements that JJ Rizzo has picked up don't seem to be marked by such controversy and a recent nod by The Carpenters District Council seems to be just a run of the mill political favor.

Meanwhile, Royster's problems when it comes to endorsements and attacks on his record seem to indicate that double checking friends, connections and resumes is a must for any candidate hoping to attain elected office in Kansas City.

    and tony called Henry Uncle Guido, not step-dad. "Tony, give Uncle Guido a hug and then go to bed, he came by to help Mommy with something in the basement, next to the old mattress and jar of oleo."

  17. He has assisted, organized northeast clean ups. Helped to get money to the Northeast Community through Jackson County for Old Northeast Inc. when the city cut funding completely. Helped constituents time and time again with city services that they didn't know they were eligible for. etc. etc.

  19. what cleanups? When? under what official capacity?

    The city cut funding because Old Northeast wildly mismanaged funds for years. Really, you think JJ was responsible for getting COMBAT money, the same COMBAT TKC hates, the same COMBAT run by a woman Henry Rizzo was having an affair with? The COMBAT JJ's dad controlled?

    Helped constituents with services they didn't know they were eligible for?! He's a regular boy scout! Give the boy a hand!

    Sounds like you have done some REAL good for NE JJ! I know you posted that because its so vague and un-helpful no one else would even notice it happened, if it actually did.

    But i am open-minded sexually, so i would still like to take you to dinner for trying to answer. Maybe it could be fun....

    make a legitimate case as to why JJ will make a better candidate. What has he done for NE, and what will he do? Specific concrete things, no vague, pretty clouds in the sky answers.

    ReplyDelete
  26. what did Royster make up?

    Is he not the only union member running for the 40th district seat?

    Was he not appointed to COMBAT?


    (Let me help answer these for you:

    He is a union airline pilot, member AFL-CIO. Never used their logo, never said he was endorsed by them.

    He was appointed, just never confirmed by legislature.)

    Lets deal with facts, WHAT DID ROYSTER MAKE UP?

    ReplyDelete
  27. 1:40pm - Go to both websites, northeastforroyster.com and johnrizzo.org and you can compare the 2, its VERY simple, from that comparison Will has tons of experience and service listed, and LOTS of specific ideas to make the area better.

    JJ has incredibly little listed, and nothing specifically to the northeast where he has or will help the area. If he is the better candidate with better ideas, he hasn't figured out what those are yet.

  29. Tony omitted the bottom part of the letter from DAMN Tarwater which CCed JJ Rizzo - which is an Ethics Violation...not that anyone would care that Danny is using his office to try to please Henry...errr, I mean JJ.

    ReplyDelete
  30. JACO Charter says that the Legislature has 14 days to revoke an Executive appointment. The legislature never revoked Royster's appointment. So he's correct in saying he was appointed. Henry Rizzo pushed Mike Sanders to try to get Royster off the commission because Rizzo knew Royster would call for an outside certified accounting of COMBAT funds used at Old Northeast, where Henry installed JJ in exchange that gave JJ a resume bullet for COMBAT money. The COMBAT Commission was restructured, and Sanders appointed his own slate of commissioners. Royster was appointed, but never served. His claim is valid.

    ReplyDelete
  31. Funny it doesn't state that though. It clearly states that he was a commissioner. Which he was not, it doesn't state that he was just appointed. It was recinded or rejected.

  34. I just saw the ad in the Northeast News for JJ Rizzo. Why would a candidate spend money on an ad to convince voters that he lives in the district? I think the whispers are true: that JJ does not live in distict.

    ReplyDelete
  35. 3:01, yes, it says "appointed". Let JJ explain why his daddy put forth so much effort to try to remove Northeast's only appointed COMBAT Commissioner appointee. We know why: because Royster would have exposed the misuse of funds and people would have gone to jail...in some cases (Henry) they would have gone to jail again.

  38. I really liked the family album ad by JJ Rizzo. I think that every candidate should run for office based on how many family pictures they show. Maybe WIll Royster could show pictures of the granite monument in Concourse Park that was dedicated by the City to his dad, Or he could show pics of some things NAMED after his family - a couple of schools, a historic skyscraper, a post office, and an entire neighborhood, for example. JJ, what's your family known for?

Screw your skyscraper! (another HOT phallus!)

    ReplyDelete
  41. 3:01, the Rizzos don't state their income taxes that they take in the form of kickbacks from hand-out bids to their buddys; but its true. So if you just investigate, you'll find the truth. I know Royster was appointed because I saw the letter of appointment, as did the Northeast News, which published a story of the appointment, as well as the later disestablishment of the COMBAT Commission. Royster was a commissioner who never got to serve.

    ReplyDelete
  42. 330 The reason Royster never got to serve as COMBAT Commissioner is because daddy Rizzo was going to take away Mike Sanders gambling "comps" if he didn't do something to keep Royster from looking into the scams Rizzo had going with COMBAT money. Like his girlfriend getting paid over $100k for doing nothing; and for paying another $100k in salaries to two employees at Old Northeast so that JJ could have something to put on his job description. Oh, yeah, JJ backrupted Old Northeast and left the community without a CDC. Love ya, JJ - love your "work".

  46. JJ is just a wuss do-nothing who runs for office every 2 years. At least Royster has a clear record of serving his country, community, and getting things done. and he has a clear plan to continue improving the 40th district. Rizzo? I can't believe anyone who is reasonable and honest would think its time for ANOTHER Rizzo in office. Royster, may be he is slightly crazy, but he cares and is effective at helping his neighbors. Maybe you have to be slightly crazy to actually be willing to do the right thing.

    ReplyDelete
  47. This is bullshit. I am sure that somewhere in the County Courthouse there is a team of Mike Sanders hacks writing offensive comments on this blog about Will Royster and Chris Moreno.

    Sanders hates Chris Moreno because Chris Moreno will never submit to Sanders' corrupt dealings. That is why Sanders is trying to keep Moreno from getting political consulting contracts, even though Chris is the hottest commodity in Midwestern political consulting.

    ReplyDelete
  50. Most of the current elected people in Jackson County are the problem, save a rare few like Theresa Garza Ruiz. There is a reason big labor is pushing through negative press and ANY obstacle to get this "independent" board set up to negotiate labor agreements - they know they are about to lose their whole team! They've never pushed for this before because they helped seat everyone on the legislature, they had their control! Now they are about to lose it, and are trying to work in a loophole so they can maintain their control.

  55. Actually in the mix of it7/13/10, 6:26 PM

    Toadstool/bystander - I agree with you 100%, and I know Royster does too. The issue is the Rizzo clan has held up this seat for 25 YEARS! Henry ran UNOPPOSED from 1985 until 2002, when former mayor Charlie Wheeler kicked him out, but couldn't last because he was in his 80s. John Burnett was willing to fight the fight for as long as he could, but ALWAYS against a Rizzo. If this crooked family would just let Northeast go (they truly have all moved north of the river) and then a business owner or doctor would be willing to actually run. But Rizzo stay in power because their process works; behind the scenes bully tactics and threats and personal attacks. Who wants this? Will Royster is a retired navy pilot who dedicated his life to his country, and then to his community. ANYone who has actually worked with him who also cares about the NE knows his heart. He might rub someone the wrong way every once in a while, but they can never legitimately question his desire to make the neighborhood a good place to raise his kids, and for his neighbors to raise their kids. He was willing to get in the ring and endure the nasty Rizzo attacks because he cares, but I guarantee you he wished he didn't have to. If the Rizzos leave, then I would hope you would see a new generation of people willing to step up. Maybe the newspaper editor will actually cover whats best for NE, and other candidates for other offices won't be afraid to have something to say about who is fighting for NE.
    If you look at Will's record, his resume, what he has done, and what he is proposing to do - he exceeds your description of a qualified servant. Rizzo just can't give up his control, and is a below-the-belt fighter, and the average guy on the street, who does care, doesn't want to endure that.

No normal person would take the crap Rizzos are throwing at him. Maybe he isn't so crazy, but just not afraid to stand up to bullies.

I think Michael should spend less time trying to get "even" with Will, and spend more time looking into all the questions about JJ. Does he live in district? Where does he really work? What does he really do? How has he helped the community. We know what Will has done, so now let's see what JJ has done. Michael, go find out and report!

It might be overlooked on a typical resume, but when you're promising to represent people in Jefferson City, minor things like that make a difference.

  86. elbryan; go through his resume, i think you'll find it very impressive and accurate. while you are at it, go through JJ's resume (THAT won't take long!). its worth noting Royster was appointed to COMBAT, its shows that someone else thought he was a leader in the neighborhood and was worthy of serving. As far as the rest of his neighborhood credentials, if you think there are questions, look into them. He even lists the years he has served. I guarantee you Rizzo is trying to find ANYTHING and will be emailing it to TKC to post, like the rest of this crap, all meant to distract from the fact that JJ isn't qualified, ESPECIALLY when compared to Royster.

    The point of stating he was appointed is to show all across the board, governments have seen Royster as the right neighborhood leader who is fit to serve the community in a myriad of functions. The fact that a corrupt county executive found a loophole to not allow Royster to actually serve is another issue, which can be tied back to Rizzo directly (which coincidentally, the only times Royster's record of service to his community is EVER questioned, is when a Rizzo is involved. how stupid are you to not see that?)

  89. He never claimed he was appointed, but rather a commissioner. That is a blatant lie. Never served a day and claims he was a commissioner.

  91. 11:15; not a lie, but pretty shady.

    So today I read the article in Northeast News, and I rode my bike around the neighborhood counting yard signs. Here's my report:

    1) Emily Randall wrote the article. Someone had mentioned tension between Bushnell and Royster... I don't think that is demonstrated here.

    2) I counted 30 Royster signs and 9 Rizzo signs. Many of the yards with Royster signs had signs for other races. Rizzo yards were dedicated soley to the District 40 race. I didn't ride to Columbus Park, where I'm sure Rizzo has more support.

    Extra fact: It only takes about 450 votes to win a primary in District 40, and Rizzo has only come close ONCE in all the times he has run for this office.
