TKC EXCLUSIVE AND BREAKING NEWS!!! KANSAS CITY INSIDER: CITY HALL TARGETS WHITE WORKERS FOR FURLOUGH WHILST PROTECTING MAYOR & COUNCIL MONEY!!!



This blog has always been about alternative perspectives and today we're featuring a story that's too hot for any other local media outlet to touch . . .

To wit and just moments ago . . .

A KANSAS CITY INSIDER LEAKED EXCLUSIVE DOX REVEALING THE DEETS OF UPCOMING CITY HALL FURLOUGHS AND CHOICE EXCLUSIONS!!!

Now, the contention here is that the furlough is basically just going after white people . . . I'll let the AWESOME TKC TIPSTER make that case but behind the scenes we've talked about this story given that our blog community was FIRST TO BREAK CITY HALL FURLOUGH NEWS. The truth is that there are several well-educated and upper-management women & people of color who will also be impacted by this 12th & Oak strategy which seeks to penalize the most educated and elite working at City Hall whilst special interests protect their rank & file workers. We're really talking about city hall sacrificing white-collar workers and administrators who know how this town works better than anyone else.

Moreover and more importantly . . .

MAYOR & COUNCIL FORGOING FURLOUGH PAY CUTS HAS EVERYONE AT CITY HALL SEEING RED AMID BUDGET HARSH TIMES!!!

We also talked about frustration with politicos and their generous salaries and now those complaints are reaching a crescendo.

Nevertheless, here's a broader explanation that offers an ALTERNATIVE perspective . . .

Insider: KCMO Race Based Furloughs

Out of 5600+ employees, City Hall has gerrymandered their "involuntary furloughs" - suspensions - so they only impact 15% of the city workforce. 850 out of 5600 workers - those 850 overwhelmingly white BTW - are losing a week's pay as a result of council's irresponsible spending. They blame covid, but who was it that made bus rides free, saying they'd figure out later how to pay for it. Well, it appears 850 already overworked city staff will be paying for it. And YES, as you'd expect, it does NOT APPLY to council or the mayor. And for THAT, they are saving a paltry 1.2 million out of a 1.7 billion dollar budget.

Perhaps the original idea had merit. Save 2.2 million in staff furloughs. Still a HORRIBLE IDEA to screw 5600 employees for couch change, but they were immediately confronted with "If black lives matter, why is the largest minority employer in the region furloughing black people??". As with everything, race was injected from the start. Suddenly the gerrymandering started.

At first they exempted those under 20k and part time employees. That eliminated a good number of the black workers.

Then they exempted Fire, Water, Aviation, Health and municipal judges (really-with all these dismissed charges, we still need judges?).

Wow, that took the savings down to 1.7 million and also excused a pretty fair number of minorities. And THEN local 500 speaks up and points to their contract. Now they are excluded. That eliminates virtually all field workers - the bulk of African-American workers as well.

SO, what's left?

The college educated, mostly white, admin and middle/upper management. Skilled workers. You know the ones who COULD go somewhere else, but work for the city out of civic responsibility OR because they are invested in the pension system. SO, let's AGAIN screw the white guys for a million bucks.

Most of these folks haven't seen a real pay raise in years and if they do, it's capped at 2%. In fact they just did a major audit dealing with all of them who hadn't received raises for years and were owed back pay. BUT, they fixed all that. NOW, they all lose at least 1% of their pay with the door open for more to come.

Did they PLAN to be racist? One has to wonder considering the blatant racism in their parking ticket policy and other council decisions aimed clearly at benefiting primarily the African-American community. BUT, they love to speak of "implicit bias" - The bias you don't see. Your blind spot. Seems to me that at the very least, THIS is implicit bias. I know for damn sure, any policy that only impacts 15% of a workforce is NOT FAIR and equitable. I question if it's even legal.

You really need to peek into this. This is not just "things are so bad we're going to have to furlough". This is "here's another chance to screw those white folks," there are also a several highly skilled people of color caught in the explosion. A million bucks?!?! I can find a million bucks worth of waste at City Hall in 5 minutes that nobody would even notice . . .

  1. at the very least, the council and mayor need to donate their pay for December. What they're doing with the furloughs is horrible.

    1. It's hard for me to feel sorry for people at City Hall but after this, I can see where they're coming from. The budget is a bad situation all around but once again we see everybody playing politics with this and passing the buck.

      That's not leadership. If we were really talking about saving the city some cash, we would have a serious conversation about all of these subsidies and tax breaks that continue to go out to big companies.

  6. How about letting everyone keep their job and pay check with a pay cut by a certain percentage of all employees who work for the city including the Mayor and council.

    Instead of making some suffer make everyone suffer.

    Cease any more tax handouts to developers and kill any toy train extensions, give the feds their money back.

  8. Screwing whitey has been pretty much the theme of the Q-ball administration so this is nothing new. Say, do you think that Rex Archer might get furloughed? He probably has a huge salary and he really has not done anything for it in all the years he has sat on his throne. Let’s cross our fingers.

Incompetent Dem politicians let the “peaceful protests get out of control and now they need money. Let these cities and thugs who destroyed them eat shit. They will be eating it again in November.

  14. The stupid Dem mayors and city councils broke their budgets a long time ago, and now they want Trump to bail them out for their stupidity. Not going to happen. And the Dems threw a bunch of socialist "pork" into their proposal that no one in their right mind would approve. Unweirdo.

  17. Black Lives Matter and Marxist radical Democrats like Quentin Lucas are currently trying to defund the police department.

    Teachers and fire department folks better watch their back as the Marxists Democrats will want to replace them next.

    Bolsheviks like Black Lives Matter and ANTIFA will install their own educational system to "re-educate" the citizens.

    Did you see where Black Lives Matter placed a guillotine in front of the White House and decapitated a mannequin of President Trump.

    They attacked Rand Paul and his wife who were saved by five very brave policemen.

    This is no politics as usual. This is a terrorist, Communist Democrat Party trying to seize power.

    2. 6:11 Personal attacks are a hallmark of DARVO -

      Definition of DARVO
      DARVO refers to a reaction perpetrators of wrong doing, particularly sexual offenders, may display in response to being held accountable for their behavior. DARVO stands for "Deny, Attack, and Reverse Victim and Offender."

      It was clear that the police and Americans get the job done when Democrats attack. Doesn't matter if it's DC or Kenosha.

  18. It's lights out unless Biden shows he can think on his feet, answer tough questions from reporters and go toe-to-toe with Trump. The Durham Report and the Republican Convention might be the final nail in Biden's coffin. Most blacks are not enthused about Kamala Harris, whose relative owned 200 slaves in Jamaica in the late 1800s, and like how Trump lowered black unemployment to record lows. Ironically, Obama still holds records for high black unemployment.

  19. 12:13, are you claiming that the layoffs are not only aimed primarily at people of a certain race but also at people who support a certain political party? That sounds like illegal discrimination to me.

  22. Reverse discrimination wins in some court cases. That's a fact.

  23. Everyone who has ever been through a layoff knows the most vulnerable people are middle management. If systems werent so racist, it wouldnt feel like an attack on college educated white people because others would also have that kinda upward mobility. But since they dont promote black people, the middle management chopping block is filled with whites.

    Never thought I'd see so many capes for middle management lol. You guys are true to the racism shit lol

    Also to 151p point: the 2 largest discrimination judgments in Jackson County are reverse discrimination lawsuits.

  34. So, the upshot of your complaint is that the white folks making the big bucks in their air-conditioned offices are asked to take a small hit (LESS THAN THE RAISE THEY GOT IN THIS YEARS BUDGET) and the ACTUAL workers don't get hit? Class, not race. Tears do not come easy on that one.

    As to the Mayor and Council? They cannot reduce their salaries by ordinance, but can -- and many if not all -- will figure a way to take a reduction.

    ReplyDelete
  35. The council should repay the millions they've given away to big business and luxury hotels. They are getting rich off of kc taxpayers.

  36. I guess this is more "social justice" by city hall.

    Sad.

    Maybe that's why the recall is going better than anticipated? I know I was happy to sign.

  37. Need to start recalling some of the council too.

  38. Phil Cardarella - 25,000 is big bucks? They get a 20 hour suspension. $50,000 is big bucks (when they could make half again that in private sector)? They get a 40 hour suspension. Little hit? 1% hit, yes. To people paycheck to paycheck, a day's pay is a big deal. And the 1.2 million they save? Something like .07%, so comparatively to what it's getting the City, it's a big hit. And, I'll drop dead the day council/mayor takes what they dish out.

    Fair & equitable isn't 15%.

    ReplyDelete
  39. That would be Phil Cardarella, husband of Katherine Shields. Does that mean she's giving her salary back? I can't wait to hear her convince the rest of them to do the same.

    ReplyDelete
  40. Katherine shields is the cheap skate loser moron that’s been pushing the furlough months before it happened, she wanted the little people to take the cut so she wouldn’t have to give up her money, Phil, you and your wife are millionaire douche bags.

    When was the last time you and miss piggy gave up money and had to miss meals? Thought so.

    ReplyDelete
  41. So they’ve figured out who’s getting screwed in the furloughs. Now someone needs to report on the 13 people who actually lost their jobs and how poorly they were treated.
