TKC BREAKING NEWS!!! COUNCIL LADY JOLIE JUSTUS LAUNCHES EMERGENCY ORDINANCE TO LOOT 90-MILLION BUCKS FROM KANSAS CITY TAXPAYERS IN SERVICE OF NEW AIRPORT UNSIGNED SHORT-TERM 'DEAL' FINANCING!!!
One of the biggest deals in Kansas City history is under discussion without a contract or signatures on the dotted line.
To wit . . .
COUNCIL LADY JOLIE JUSTUS SPONSORED AN ORDINANCE FOR KANSAS CITY TAXPAYERS TO FINANCE $90-MILLION WORTH OF NEW AIRPORT WORK WITHOUT A DEAL SIGNED BY MOST AIRLINES!!!
It's also worth noting that this "accelerated effective date" ordinance means that most of the oversight governing KCMO contracts is not built into this pile of cash. It's pretty much like giving away and EPIC sum with only the promise that they'll get it back with reasonable terms. Not so long ago this kind of legislation was called "emergency" ordinance but this blog smacked down City Hall so much on the tactic that they changed the name . . . Nevertheless, it's still an emergency ordinance when it comes to the the rules that govern the policy.
And so we ask . . .
WHY CAN'T COUNCIL LADY JOLIE JUSTUS WAIT FOR FEBRUARY 25TH WHEN HER "DEAL" WITH ALL THE AIRLINES WILL BE SIGNED?!??! OR DOES THIS RUSH LEGISLATION TACITLY ADMIT THAT WAS JUST FAKE NEWS?!?!
To be fair, the airlines have promised to cover this cash once their BILLION+ agreement is signed but they're only willing to commit for 9-years at a time whilst it will take KCMO generations to pay back this kind of money.
For those who care at all about Kansas City flirting with bankruptcy thanks to this bad deal.
REMIND MAYOR SLY & COUNCIL THAT THEY PROMISED THE NEW AIRPORT WOULDN'T COST TAXPAYERS A DIME AND NOT THAT TAXPAYERS WOULD HAVE TO FRONT AIRLINES MILLIONS OF BUCKS AND THEN HOPE TO GET PAID BACK!!!
In every sense of the word this is BETRAYAL of the local democracy and the voters will on the airport.
Here's a link to contact info for Mayor & Council . . .
Check the ordinance proof, with TKC highlights that makes this bad deal a part of City Hall policy . . .

I guess she really doesn't want to be mayor after all. Not if she puts her name on this kind of garbage.
ReplyDeleteBusiness as usual in Kansas City. What's 90 million dollars between friends?
DeleteYou can keep your doctor!
DeleteSo is the newspaper going to report this or I guess the UMKC basketball team fighting amongst each other is more important. This is sad when a blog has better information on a deal worth this kind of money.
ReplyDelete^^^ that's because most people just want the airport to get built, they don't care how it's done and it might not be important. Let's get this thing taken care of and not waste time arguing over and over again. It will cost a lot of money but it's much better than what we have now!
DeleteMost people name them that shouldn’t take very long
Delete9:26, translated:
Delete"Will you just bend over and spread your legs and quit arguing? This rape is just gonna happen. Will you stop yelling?"
Wow. "Dad, I know I spent millions at the strip club. Can I have millions nore?"
ReplyDeleteIf any more proof was needed that this clueless clown car is off the rails, here it is. City Hall just can't get enough of your money!
This is like building an airplane while you design it. Just won't fly.
ReplyDeleteThe Heir apparent to SLie. Probably has already been fitted for clown suits. If you'd like to help but can't afford much send her bow ties in lieu of cash.
ReplyDeleteHAHA! WTF!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHow do they get away WITH THIS SHIT!
The predicted KCMO train wreck is officially underway.
ReplyDeleteAnd it doesn't appear at the moment it will be in slow motion.
Maybe they forgot to add the bowling pin jugglers and fire breathers section into the design or something?
ReplyDeleteAnd a twerk and jerk section?
ReplyDeleteJolie eats a lot of pussy
ReplyDeletebowling pin jugglers and fire breathers
ReplyDeleteHAHAHA hahaha that's funny so true. Step right up to the greatest show in the universe the world class Slick James Family Circus.
Fuck this town is messed up.
ReplyDeleteMaybe they can use broken and replaced antique iron water pipes in a modern art sculpture for the new airport mall.
ReplyDeleteQuaid at 9:25 is dead on the money.
ReplyDeleteThis is just so rigged, so corrupt and so "in your face peons" that it's laughable.
The K C Star, who gets tax breaks out the ass from their butt buddies at City Hall, has abrogated ANY journalistic responsibilities in lieu of hoped for invitations to tony cocktail parties, where Tony will never be invited, to clink cocktail glasses with the swells who loot the city's economic future for short term gain and sinecure.
Here is a list of "Journalistic Ethics and Goals".
1)TRUTH AND ACCURACY -The Star and local TV Stations are a light year away from that on this issue. Obfuscation and spin are the guiding principles on this issue.
2)FAIRNESS AND IMPARTIALITY - Note the aforementioned symbiotic relationship with City Hall by way of Tax Breaks and crony, corrupt relationships.
3)INDEPENDENCE - (See number 2)
4)HUMANITY, JOURNALIST SHOULD DO NO HARM - 4 billion dollars, euchred out of taxpayer pockets is a hell of a lot of harm.
5)ACCOUNTABILITY - If you are still hoping for accountability from the biased, agenda driven, Progressive news outlets in this Democrat town over the damage they have done in our freshly remembered past, with respect to 18th and Vine, the KCSD, the racial divide, the sewers, or, just the general day to day good stewardship of our tax monies spent by our politicians, you're spending too much time getting fucked up with Quinton Lucas.
The local and national Main Stream Media is a disgrace.
Tony is our last hope Obi Wan Kenobi.
9:26: Since the plans for the new airport have not even been finalized, how can you say for sure "it's much better than what we have now!"
ReplyDeleteAre you gopher's little helper?
ReplyDeleteThe taxation in this city is horrific. Kansas City you have the power to stop it, it's just a matter of if you want to or not.
Get out and vote but do your research first. Hind sight is 20/20 can you see what has happened and are you willing to stop it?
^^No. Because you pussy bitches don't know anything about municipal finance, city planning, business development, or basically anything. Listening to you idiots nash your teeth and rend your garments day after day is funny though. Oh so upset!! The corruption, my God!
ReplyDeleteAh yes, the traditional regard of City Hall for those it swindles. Let's hear more.
DeleteAnd it's 'gnash', you genius you. :)
You ARE gopher's little helper!
ReplyDeleteIn St Louis there is a fight over the privatization of Lambert. Opponents are next trying to get state legislature involved bc they feel board of Alderman approach had left them out of it. Could there be a similar strategy for new KCI concerned citizens?
ReplyDeleteWhy not pay for the airport out of the project bonds instead of this way?
Thanks,
Radish
10:43: Could we just Nash Rambler our teeth?
ReplyDeleteOk 10:43, ya dumb cunt, tell me how the proposed single terminal airport that we all be presented is a decentnairport worth billions of dollars.
ReplyDelete^^OK 10:50 ya dumb motherfucker, I'll tell ya. You use a space bar & question mark to your awful post. There. Now go away child, adults are talking.
ReplyDelete^^Ha! 10:50 got knocked the fuck out!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDelete10:43
ReplyDeleteOk, that's cool.
Give we plebes at least a cursory overview, a thumb nail, laymen's sketch of the how's, why's and economic efficacy short and long term of a 4 billion dollar replacement of an airport that we all admit ain't pretty, but sure as hell gets the job done.
Don't tell me that there are too many variables, that our actuary skills are not in your league, or, that we are not smart enough to understand "high finance" and we should just shut up and pay the bill.
If in fact, it is logical to build it, why is it, there is so much back room under the radar agreements and why the change in nomenclature and obfuscation?
Enlighten us oracle.
Now if some dumb cunt wants to give a clue that the modernization of the airport does not include tearing down any of the existing terminals, I will STFU.
ReplyDelete10:58 u are not an adult , you are an irresponsible fuck that think typos from cell phones make a difference and has a little Jester that likes to yell knocked the fuck out every time u speak. And certainly anyone can take shortcuts with language and ask rhetorical questions when this whole airport has been a shortcut for politicians and lawyers with very little credibility.
ReplyDelete10:58 all u proved is that not only do u try to answer rhetorical questions, u could not not answer them if u tried.
ReplyDelete11:07A u and ur master are a worthless pieces of shit taking up space.
Where do I get my Clay Chastain's, or any other white taxpayer candidate's yard sign?
ReplyDelete@11:17AM that's all well and good, but the fact you used "cunt" in your sorry-ass post renders everything you just said null and void. Know what I mean Verne? So again, you fucking child, go the fuck away.
ReplyDelete@11:36AM-from your mom's bedroom. She's fucking him.
ReplyDelete@9:57 is the Delivery Boy hat supplies Councilwoman Justice with dead stray cats to satisfy her unnatural dietary habits!
ReplyDeleteWhat did you think, that any self-respecting woman would let that hog get near to her?
Look up Tony's ass. The Clay Chastain signs are up there.
ReplyDeleteWhile you're there, kick Tony in the butt. You'll break chuck's nose.
@10:50 & @11:07, nice try, but your ass is the one on the canvas.
ReplyDelete^^Nah. Chuck and that sorry-ass stupid dave got knocked the fuck out. Would agree with 11:07AM.
ReplyDelete12:02 u dumb fckn cunt I will use the word whenever and to whomever I want and maybe u shouldn’t make assumptions about who u r speaking with ya dumb pseudo feminist pc bitch.
ReplyDelete12:02 u may as well be a white person lecturing a black person not to use the word nigger.
ReplyDeleteDumb cunt
I'm a lesbian. But I wouldn't vote for her- no way, no how!
ReplyDelete^^^Thanks for the response. Is special-ed closed today because of the rain retard?
ReplyDeleteMaybe u should hop a plane to England, hang out in the pubs, and try to lecture everyone not to use the word cunt, you fool.
ReplyDelete@1:19PM I'll make a pretty good assumption about ya! Here goes: White male, approx 57-72 years old. Fat, bald, unskilled, no college, no high school either, broke, no teeth or poor dental hygiene, divorced, estranged from family, lonely as fuck and sitting in a rancid diaper as we speak. That about cover it Cletus?
ReplyDeleteProjection is a bitch, but at least you have a mirror handy. ;)
Delete^^Daaaaang! 1:19PM got knocked the fuck out!!!! That is hilarious!!!!!
ReplyDelete11:29: Aren't rhetorical questions unanswerable by definition?
ReplyDeleteLOL! @1:30PM...that shit is funny, and likely true too!
ReplyDelete@1:48Pm I see what you did there and I like it.....11:29 doesn't though, and has absolutely no idea what you're talking about. +1000!
ReplyDeleteHey 1:19, if you're calling anonymous strangers on the internet "cunts" all day, it time to assess your life choices to see where you failed as a human being.
ReplyDelete10:43 We are waiting...
ReplyDeleteYikes the comments on this blog. Mercy. Pretty quickly descends into farce.
ReplyDelete"Yikes the comments on this blog. Mercy. Pretty quickly descends into farce."
DeleteThe content is the farce. Half worn-out cliches, half lies. The comments are only enlightening if you want to see what people are willing to believe, which is damn near anything
Hi Anonymous at 4:00 PM!
DeleteToo bad, then, that this crazy little blog is the only news outlet in the area worth the name.
Run along now and get Mayor Bullhorn another scotch. :)
The moron got sued for libel and lost, 4:24. His posts are disproved daily.
DeleteEnd of credibility.
Wishful thinking 5:25. He is doing actual journalism, in his way, whether you like it or not.
Delete@2:44PM-You are? Really? Really? You don't have a SINGLE other thing you could possibly do? You are waiting all day on a blog for an anonymous poster to respond to a bunch of retards? Really?!? OMG! You pitiful, pitiful, loser. How sad you must be!
ReplyDeleteSounds like Jolie is operating in desperation mode the same as Slie.
ReplyDeleteEverything will be okay once Kareem Hunt turns down his offer from the Browns and decides to run for KC mayor.
ReplyDelete4:00 YOU pay for the airport moneybags!
ReplyDeleteDoes Jolie really eat pussy?
ReplyDeleteNo. She devours tax money and excretes lies.
Delete90 plus the 40 million they already gave, I didn’t know we had that kind of money laying around, let’s just imagine if we had just a decent mayor and clowncil would the streets and infrastructure be falling apart like they are now?
ReplyDelete2030 Press release. Kansas City announces the opening of a new terminal at Kansas City international Airport. They are still in discussion on how to pay the 3 Billion dollar bonds voted on to complete construction. They are still in discussion to find a replacement for Southwest Airlines who pulled all but 3 flights a day from the airport over cost of operations, and American, Delta and United, are down to 2 flights a day.
ReplyDelete@4:20, for the answer to your question, see the post @12:04 above.
ReplyDeleteAlways love to see the comments about how much TKC is hated and dispised, they show up daily, year after year and from readers who have been keeping up with him since the start.
ReplyDeleteAs for the airport, it's out of control and needs to be brought under control.
Jolie can't be mayor if this is the slap shot way she is going to run our city.
ReplyDeleteI think that Jolie is just trying to do the right thing for our city. Voters approved the airport, it's something that we want done. Let's get it going and stop trying to sabotage everything good about this city.
ReplyDeleteToo late. The James/Justus clown revue has achieved great success in the fields of gross managerial neglect and civic incompetence.
DeleteDumbass @6:36, we're trying to save "everything good about this City"!
ReplyDeleteAnd as far as the voters "approving the Airport", the ballot vote authorized the Council to "accept design proposals for a new Airport Terminal".
So far there IS NO DESIGN, so the Council can take no action.
6:36 you want an airport and we want good streets and infrastructure, I think streets and infrastructure are more important. We also want that bitch sLIE to quit giving away all our money to developers.
ReplyDeleteWhere is Quinton Lucas on all this ? Where is that thoughtful deliberate college law professor on all this? He’s too busy pandering for the black workforce vote, he should be the check on Jolie with all this but he’s worthless.
ReplyDeleteIs there any proof at all that Jolie eats pussy or has ever eaten pussy?
ReplyDeleteAsk ur mom.
DeleteWill you listen to all these municipal finance experts! Why I'd be running for mayor if I were you guys! Oh, the knowledge!!!
ReplyDeleteExcept you guys are in over your heads counting your fucking toes.
Does not make the proposed airport a good airport 10:23. Talk about lawyers in over their head.
ReplyDeleteAs far as as sabotage 6:36, building the proposed airport will sabotage the city. Does not matter if a bunch of misinformed citizens voted for it with the illusion it would be good for the city, it was an illusion.
10:23 since you are one of the finance expert, you or one of the other experts tell us exactly how the financing works if you say this blog keeps getting it wrong.
ReplyDeletePlease stop this airport project and start over.
