WILL WE SEE SOME SUDDEN RESIGNATIONS IN COSTA MESA?

Now that the City has hired a private investigative firm--Talon Executive Services--to do some work for the City, will some haters and bigots suddenly decide it's time to leave?

Here's the link to Talon.

Take a few minutes to look around Talon's Website.  You may note some interesting areas of claimed expertise.

Is Talon any good at what it does?  We'll have to wait and see.

NMUSD WANTS CITY TO PAY HALF OF COST OF COPS ON CAMPUS

How about having the NMUSD stop paying full salaries to two superintendents--one who is actually working and the other who is on leave to fight criminal charges up in Los Angeles?

Then, use that money to help pay for the cops on campus.

BTW, Katrina Foley was the only school board member who didn't want to keep paying the super who's in legal trouble. The rest treat the NMUSD as some sort of private club  and they circle the wagons to protect board members and staff that they work closely with.

Katrina's a lefty on most issues, but she often (but not always) comes across as a fiscal conservative. 

So, maybe there's hope with some sort of twelve step program to wean her away from the liberal joy juice.

COP UNION NOT HAPPY ABOUT POSSIBLE REDUCTIONS IN CMPD

With fewer out of town cops on the force trying to buy councilmembers to do their bidding, there will also be fewer cops to hook A-Frame  signs, such as the one pictured, behind their Cadillac Escalades to drag around town to try to smear a candidate and embarrass him in front of his kids.

Why, it may mean that the voters of Costa Mesa will get to have an election in which we won't see as many candidates selling their souls to out of town unions in order to get campaign support and money.
