***** The Case Of The Missing $24,877.17 Sarai Rivera Campaign Funds *****
Rivera emptied out her campaign account recently and
OCPF is looking for answers as to exactly where did the money go to.
OCPF has audited and requested a response from Rivera, which as of today, no response has been provided by Rivera.
There are only 4 permissible destination options allowed for surplus campaign funds to be given:
1. MA general fund.
2. General fund of any town/city.
3. Scholarship fund (subject to restrictions)
4. Charitable or religious organization also subject to restrictions to ensure no personal benefit to the candidate.
Answers are needed and OCPF isn't going anywhere...

***** Overwhelming Opposition To DOT Traffic/Pedestrian Game Plan That Negatively Affects Surrounding Neighborhoods *****
Those in favor of this abortion plan don't live in the neighborhoods with some not even living in our city.
It is very important we all now get involved and email our elected city council and school committee members to get on board helping to improve this crapass offering by the MA DOT.
Please take the few seconds it takes to email the following:

***** State Auditor Diana DiZoglio Fighting State Legislature Seeking Full Transparency & Accountability *****
Senate President Karen E. Spilka and Speaker Ron Mariano are on the wrong side of history as are most of our cities and towns local state delegations.
The peoples votes and their ballots cast actually matters regardless of how much these two anti-democratic shysters, including their groveling lapdogs in both branches of the state legislature, claim otherwise.

***** Oakham Fire Chief Timothy Howe Sounding Alarm Bells Against Battery Storage Park That's Also Threatening City of Worcester, Massachusetts and Boston's Drinking Water Supply *****
Our City Council and City Manager Batista need to immediately post haste start addressing this issue in order to protect our city's water supply.
Our local state delegations need to step up as well in these regards.
Though actually expecting the majority of them to do so is still probably a pipe dream unfortunately.
Todays battle is in Oakham where mega corporations want to site a huge, potentially deadly, battery storage complex adjacent to the aquifers that provide our drinking water will be won and lost in the court of public opinion.
Worcester MUST do all it can to help Oakham out and assist in stopping this horrendous proposed project that threatens all of us here in the city, out in Oakham and all the way to Boston.

***** Tone Deaf Governor Maura Healey Sh****ng On Voters & The Ballots They Cast *****
Government always works best and is more efficient coming from the voters and the votes they cast regarding ballot initiatives.
In this instance voters absolutely and resoundingly rejected the punitive cudgel the MCAS Standardized Testing represented.
Maura Healey and Lt. Governor Kim Driscoll now ignoring the will of the voters and their ballots is abhorrent, unacceptable, untenable and anti-democratic.
They both support underfunding our public schools while issuing unfunded mandates that are non-sensical
Our locally elected school committees know exactly whats best for our students versus an outta towner disengaged administration that fails our schools, students, teachers and families.
We all, and our students especially, certainly deserve better than this abject bu****it.

***** Checking Some Of The Main Streets & Side Roads DPW Commissioner Westerling's DPW Did A Decent Snow Removal Job *****
Not being able to check all quadrants completely, anecdotally, the snow removal and after treatment is a huge improvement over the past few years.
While no snow removal/cleanup is ever perfect, anyone having issues or complaints are encouraged to call the DPW Hotline at 311 or 508-929-1300 to register a complaint and or seek service.

***** Houston We've Got A Problem On Campaign Finance Reporting From The Jermoh Kamara Chaos Team *****
This is all just plain wrong and not who we need in our local government.
If it's not Khrystian King totally ignoring OCPF edicts...
Former D2 City Councilor Phil Palmieri suing a Little League program for kids to settle old political scores while trying to screw the kids...
Or former D4 City Councilor Sarai Rivera emptying and closing out here campaign account of $24,877.17 and does not list exactly where the money went in direct violation of OCPF rules...
Where did that money go to?
Now we have City Council candidate Jermoh Kamara not listing receipts for the month of November but listing having received $8,715.67 without listing donors in direct violation of OCPF rules and regulations.
These are the very same people chastising others for their perceived wrongdoings, unfounded btw, and yet hold themselves to a different standard while violating OCPF rules and regulations.
We'll keep shining the light on them and more and we also appreciate all the tips sent our way.....keep em coming!

***** The WRTA Is Incapable Of Providing Consistent Bus Services To Bus Riders Counting On The RTA to Get Them To Work & Back Home *****
This is an outage and damn disgrace that in New England's 2nd largest city we have a micky-mouse WRTA operation that cannot operate regular hours in a snow storm.
We should be better, much better than this crapass bu****it we are provided with by todays WRTA.

A Winter Storm Watch is in effect from Tuesday morning through late Tuesday night. Snow accumulations of more than 6 inches is possible for the WRTA service area.

Please be advised that WRTA will utilize snow routes in the event of poor road conditions. Delays should be expected. Alerts on the status of snow routes will be updated on our website.
