TKC BREAKING AND EXCLUSIVE NEWS!!! CITY HALL INSIDERS PLEAD WITH 4TH DISTRICT COUNCIL LADY JOLIE JUSTUS TO COMPROMISE ON BROKEN LIQUOR CONTROL ORDINANCE RATHER THAN CONTINUE HER KANSAS CITY POLITICAL LOSING STREAK!!!



Kansas City Council member Jolie Justus has suffered one disappointment after the next since she took office and her latest legislative move shows insiders that she's having a hard time adjusting to municipal politics after she earned statewide accolades from progressives.

Given her currently hysteria in promoting Hillary Clinton for Prez . . . To the uninitiated, just as her political consultants claim, Council Lady Jolie Justus is still the champion of the local Democratic Party and beloved by all of Midtown Kansas City . . .



But we are initiated . . . And we realize that even the most powerful local politicos can quickly lose their influence when donors and patrons discover that they're unable to deliver. Example: Has anybody heard from former Council dude Russ Johnson lately???

But I digress . . .

The topic here is Council lady Jolie Justus and her doomed liquor control ordinance (#160281) that not only confronts a petition but also faces opposition from a majority on the Council, some of the top political consultants in Kansas City, the monied interests on Country Club Plaza and in the Crossroads along with a $50K campaign fund to start.

In fairness, the biz class hoping to destroy Kansas City's liquor codes are backed by a loyal clique middle-class bar owners with a penchant for spamming Facebook and the Kansas City Restaurant Association - A cheapskate group that rarely contributes much more than $500 to any given campaign.

Remember that our KICK-ASS TKC BLOG BROKE NEWS of the petition push back . . . And even Council Dude Scott Taylor has been using 4th District noob Jolie as a political punching bag.



For those who really want to delve into the issue, the KC Biz Journal wrote a balanced and definitive story on the sitch: The Crossroads' drinking problem

But the behind the scenes politics of this slap-fight are even more interesting . . .

To wit . . .

KANSAS CITY INSIDERS ARE CALLING ON COUNCIL LADY JOLIE JUSTUS TO COMPROMISE ON HER DOOMED ORDINANCE RATHER THAN CONFRONT ANOTHER EMBARRASSING PUBLIC DEFEAT!!!

Let's quickly assess the damage to the career of Council Lady Jolie Justus since she has been leading the 4th District . . .

SHE CRASHED AND BURNED WITH MAYOR SLY ON THE NEW SINGLE-TERMINAL AIRPORT SCHEME!!!



Despite backdoor efforts . . . The plan was abandoned after polling revealed the public just didn't want to waste the cash to be inconvenienced.

THE KANSAS CITY CITIZENS TASK FORCE AGAINST VIOLENCE IS THE MOST TRAGIC RUNNING JOKE IN THIS COWTOWN AMID BLOODY SUMMER 2016!!!



Low attendance along with no police or former police involvement have doomed this committee as nothing more than a soapbox for anti-gun talk aimed at destroying 2nd Amendment rights within city limits.

See the common thread???

Mayor Sly seems to be single-handedly ruining the career of this groundbreaking LGBT advocate and turning her into a corporate shill.



And so . . .

TKC IS FIRST TO REPORT EXCLUSIVELY THAT CITY HALL INSIDERS ARE REACHING OUT TO COUNCIL LADY JUSTUS IN ORDER TO PREVENT A TRAGIC 3RD STRIKE AGAINST HER FLEDGLING CITY HALL POLITICAL CAREER!!!

Sure, she wants to be mayor and we'll talk about that (again) later . . . But for now, let's all consider that compromise and deal making are the two mainstays of Democracy @ 12th & Oak . . .



Meanwhile, while we respect her penchant for lost causes . . . Realizing that she's on the losing side and looking for a compromise might be "the American way" for Council Lady Justus in much the same way that most of the stuff that U.S. consumers desire (up to and including Pokémon Go) was manufactured by toddlers and/or counterfeited more profitably somewhere in Asia.

You decide . . .

  1. I think the part about lost causes is correct. She can't seem to adjust to the fact that her actions are significant now and not just easily written off and ignored by the majority like in Jeff City.

  2. She's clearly thinking too far ahead, already focused on the mayoral race and forgetting that politics might change from now until then.

  3. I know she's on the Mayor's commission but has she really done anything about crime. Look at Brookside first. That's her biggest line of support and the people there are begging for more streetlights, more police and more attention to the shootings that are migrating over from Troost. Same thing in Waldo, just read the story below. And the Hillary stuff is just a non-starter for most people who expect their district councilors to talk about fire hydrants, pot holes, street lights not what they're watching on TV.

  4. Greedo's right about Justus, but she's just like most of the other celebrity wannabe local politicos who get elected to the council.
    None of them have the slightest understanding or appreciation of MUNICIPAL public policy, or even much interest in their responsibilities as elected city officials.
    They instead focus their attention on what they're going to run for next, or what no-show job they can land somewhere else in government, or how they can schmooze some contributors to hire them after they're term-limited out, or some other state or local issues over which they have no influence.
    The Hillary sticker on Justus in the photo is a perfect example.
    And only the names change, year after year.
    Sad.

  5. Since she has it so bad for Hillary, maybe Sly will take her DC with him. She lost me when she said it was ok to abort an 8 month old Fetus! BABYKILLER!!!

  11. This lady is blowing in the wind! She was not a good state Senator, did not get much passed or hitch her wagon too. Now not a good fit on the council. Maybe she should give up running for office.

  12. She was a terrible Senator and what a surprise she is an even worse Councilperson.
