TKC BREAKING AND EXCLUSIVE NEWS!!! RECALL MOVEMENT AGAINST COUNCILMAN JERMAINE REED BEGINS!!! CHECK OUT YARD SIGNS IN KANSAS CITY'S 3RD DISTRICT!!!



Voters in Kansas City's 3rd District have moved into action against a Kansas City Councilman.



TODAY YARD SIGNS HAVE APPEARED URGING THE RECALL OF KANSAS CITY COUNCILMAN JERMAINE REED!!!



There are 39th & Paseo and a few other locations as well . . . Expect more.

Check the e-mail blast touting the "Recall Reed" movement . . .

"Let's get behind this initiative. Kansas City has suffered from poor, uncommitted leadership long enough. Here's our chance to get it right! Tell Jermaine Reed "I got the power!!!". This was his statement to me in August 2011 at the 3rd District Meeting with his assistant standing nearby in response to the decision to place the east patrol police station in the Wendell Phillips neighborhood. I told him this action would be a financial hardship to many. I told him that this neighborhood had no input in the decision. I told him that our senior citizens live there and life might be lost as a result of the move. His response was "I got the power." 

"He makes $65,000/yr to disenfranchise the same base that voted him in office (I did not vote for him but others did.). Take your power back at the voting booth!!! We deserve better leadership! I'm signing the petition, will you? "

Here's what's really important . . .

BECAUSE OF LOW VOTER TURNOUT IT WILL TAKE LESS THAN 2K PETITION SIGNATURES TO KICK COUNCILMAN REED OUT OF OFFICE!!!

This goal could be met easily by a few people standing outside of a grocery store over the weekend in less than a month. Given the unseasonably warm weather . . . I think the numbers could add up in a matter of less than 3 weeks.

Councilman Reed has faced a myriad of challenges in the 3rd District and he was always the second choice of Kansas City voters. This effort seems to reflect a very real level of frustration from voters over the priorities of Councilman Reed and his attitude in general - A subject that has elicited negative comments from a diverse group of Kansas City voters.

DEVELOPING . . .

  3. And just WHO do these folks think that better representation would be?
    You can't beat something with nothing, and you'd better not vote to change things without knowing wht the new thing might be. And in the 3rd District, the old grifters are never far from the trough.

  6. Come on PEOPLE!! The man has been in office for 8 months. Give him a chance to be successful. You also need to take a look at the conditions that allow for a recall. You can't just recall an elected official because you disagree on one issue or project.

    Why not recall Mayor James and Councilwoman Curls? They both support the location of the Poloice facilities at 27th Street?

    Why not fire the Police Chief and City Manager? They both support the location of the Poloice facilities at 27th Street?

    have these idiots ever heard of the concept of the construction of public facilities acting as a catylyst for the redevelopment of a community? Sheesh!!

    1. You aren't serious... Are you? This guy won by default and has been fumbling mess since he's been in office. Do I think this recall is necessary? No. But maybe this will bring his little has back down to earth.

    Is there a criteria for recall?

    Since he ran unopposed and the lady said she didn't vote for him, well shut the pie hole until next election.

    Get an opponent and start the campaign today.

    If not Reed, who will mouth the words of Al Brooks?

    1. Ass shit get your freaking shit correct, Mr.Reed ran against the incubent Sharon S. Brooks, and Riley, Lyman & Henderson all supported him 110%. Henderson is upset with Miles . Joyce Riley is known for her 23rd street marches that started when Rachel's son got killed. Rachel was planning to run in 2015 but has been meeting with Fletcher's people Pat Clarke,George Gates,Marvin Lyman,Henderson Bell. Fletcher had a major meeting following the Urban Summit to develope this plot. Sly James,Michael Brooks are all aware that action was being taken. Lyman,informed and got Syl's okay,cause it may throw shade on him cause of Lyman's involvement. Here where it might get real messy, Lyman may run,he's currently Syl's campaign Treasuer,he will have to quit so there will be no conflict of interest. Whatever dipshit runs has to give the seat up in 2015 but they will run for 3rd district at large.

  8. Who will replace him?

    A recall won't really work until we have somebody worthwhile that will step in.

  9. Thge long list of 3rd District souncilmembers have done such great jobs. Just look around the east side. And lots of them still have their fingers in the pie: Sanders Brooks, Riley, and Hazley, for starters.
    Their whole idea of what elected folks should do is to make sure they "get their fair share".
    It's been a losing strategy for decades, but they just have no idea what else to do.

  17. Orphan, Reed did not run unopposed. He ousted Sharon Sanders-Broooks, not because he was so well supported but because she was so much despised. So he won by being the lesser of two evils... or the evil of two lessers, however you want to say it.

  23. Reed is ineffective in part because he is never around! He only works for the camera, he asks foolish questions and makes stupid statements during committee meetings, is thoroughly unprepared, and doesn't work on constituent issues. He is pompous and self-serving. If he'd quit traveling on the city dime long enough to stick around a while, he might learn something.

    ReplyDelete
  24. Even as what's left of the east side slips further underwater, all these folks can ever do is to fight among themselves over who is going to run everything. No plan, no expertise, no experience, no ability to run so much as a one-car garage, but nothing but ME, ME, ME!
    It's hard to believe that there is such a concentration of self-important nobodies, but the results speak for themselves.
    Would the last person leaving the 3rd District, please turn out the lights.

  25. Let me just some it up. Just typical nigga shit. That is why their shit looks a mess and that is why all of the money goes up North. So who are they gonna put in there. Michael Fletcher? Sharon Sanders brooks?

  29. Typical Kansas city blacks don't know when they have a good thing. If they can't use you for their personal monetary gains they will try and destroy you. Crab syndrome at it's finest.

    1. You apparently don't know what your talking about. What good thing? Jermaine is Alvin Brooks puppet and John Miles "yes, man.". He's also in with Karen Curls. They think they run the whole damn state. Jermaine doesn't live in the district; wasn't eligible to run for Council to begin with. So, he's no good for us!!! He's disconnected from people he was never connect to begin with. You obviously are misinformed.

  36. With twi nyreders every week of the year and over 90% of them in a fifty-block area on the east side, what these folks choose to spend time on is trying to shake down the taxpayers for more money and threaten a newly-elected councilman with a recall.
    Great priorities and a very good example of why the east side continues to empty out and deteriorate into a third world country.
    Oh, and by the way, it's everyone else's fault!

  37. Very typical behavior of niggers still trying to act like or emulate humans. It's just not there. Niggers are a sub-species and always will be.

  38. I am going to help Jermaine on this issue, not because I think he is doing anything close to a good job, nor do I think he is capable. There has been no real progress in advancing the 3rd District in years, so the 3rd District should just "suck it up", let him hang around until the next election, then do what they think is best. We will see what the people learned from the political process at that time. So relay this message to Jermaine, I told you I do not attach other people children, I help them...I will be your life line to over coming this situation. This is just a spanking from your elders, Man up, Be your own man...STAND ON YOUR OWN!

    1. You sir, are part of the problem. Clearly, by your own statements you have a lack of confidence in him!!! Because you are beholden to some failed thought process, you'd rather support political deception over political transparency? Herein lies the problem in the 3rd District!!!

      Delete
  39. Typical behavior indeed; except this happens within all races! However, the reason this is SO important is that that failed politicians are pushing their agendas through Jermaine Reed. He's nothing more than a pawn, at best. Alvin Brooks will never be a successful politician on his own. So, he's using Junior to push his failed politics. Alvin Brooks needs to retire and leave the new generation of leaders alone. Everything he touches turns to stone!

  40. @9:26 Jermaine, man up? Good luck with that!

  41. I have no clue about how well Reed is taking care of business, but I do know why the forces behind his recall are after him. Brooks helped them waddle up to the feed trough, now Carson, his sister, and others hunger for the good old days.

    Oh and by the way, Moreno couldn't win an uncontested election. The only person that takes Chris serious is Tony (ok and Chris)

  43. I just moved to Kansas city from California. After reading these comments I am ready to head back on the first thing smoking. Where do I begin, how about the racist comments that were made on 1/20/12 at 6:22pm and 8:04pm also 1/21/12 at 8:26am. African American people are still being called niggers in 2012!!!!REALLY!!! Everyone can see the comments and Not do anything about it! This is why Kansas City is Nothing & wont ever be Nothing! How can you recognize something is wrong and Not do anything about it, if you can't do this in a blog how do you expect people to do anything for this run down city!!

  44. Smh! The things you read on the internet!
