Delco Sues Marple Over Park Rezoning — Charlie Alexander has let us know that Delaware County has filed its suit against Marple Township for rezoning the county’s Delco Woods park to exclusively open space.
Check out Charlie’s site for details.
Councilwoman Schaefer Questions Hunt Contract — Delaware County Council is proposing to amend a contract to Lewis M.Hunt shoveling the Chester dentist/funeral parlor owner more tax dollars to reserve three beds in a community living arrangement for county residents if needed.
It’s agenda item 9-O and is scheduled for approval today, May 15.
Councilwoman Elaine Paul Schaefer had some questions at yesterday’s work session. She wanted to know the the relationship was between Hunt and the agency supposedly doing the work. Watch it here at about 1:16 or just click on agenda 9-O.
Watch it Elaine. You keep asking questions you will end up voting for Trump.
Really.
Hey, start asking questions about Delco’s Children and Youth Services.
Sharon Devaney Bank Account Hacked — Charlie Alexander of Marple and Sharon Devaney passionately spoke about the illegal alien crisis in Delaware County, Pa. at the May 1 County Council meeting and a day later at a United4Delco event
Since then, Charlie has been stalked by a blue jeep and The Philadelphia Inquirer appears to be preparing a hit piece on Sharon.
Now we hear Sharon’s bank account at Wells Fargo has been hacked and looted.
Just coincidences, we are sure.
That was sarcasm.
Sharon and Charlie are directly over the target.
You are not paranoid when they really are out to get you.
Sharon Devaney Bank Account Hacked
Divisive Elaine Paul Schaefer Of Delaware County Pa — Delaware County, Pa., Councilwoman Elaine Paul Schaefer left council’s May 1 meeting early to attend an event concerning antisemitism.
It was announced at the night’s beginning she would be leaving at 7:30, which is an hour-and-a-half after the meeting’s start.
When she arrived at her other event she reportedly told her audience: I’m very sad to say I’m late tonight because I was at a council meeting at which there was an angry mob of 150 people. And the hate speech we’re hearing now, which is probably the reason, which is directed at immigrants. It is really just characterizing our incredibly vibrant, wonderful immigrant community as just not human. It’s really hard to hear.
We actually like Elaine. We wouldn’t vote for her but we don’t think she is a bad person.
She is fibbing through her teeth, however.
She left the meeting five minutes before her announced departure time. This was four minutes before public comments.
Check out the video. She gets up at 1:25:28 and is completely gone in 10 seconds. Public comments don’t start until 1:29:30
Whatever the reason she was late, it was not due to an “angry mob.”
We strongly urge the councilwoman to realize that dishonesty — even thoughtless, unintended dishonesty — is the major cause of divisiveness.
We strongly also urge her to understand why the citizenry calls illegals “illegals.”
Illegals are those who enter America in violation of its laws.
Immigrants are not illegals. Immigrants come to the United States legally.
Refugees are not illegals. They enter the United States legally.
Joe Biden is reportedly bringing murderously antisemitic Hamas-supporting Palestinians from Gaza to the United States as refugees.
They would not be illegals.
They would be murderously antisemitic supporters of Hamas, it is true, but they wouldn’t be illegals.
Why Biden wants them here is a different subject. Perhaps the councilwoman should broach it with her group concerned about antisemitism.
Councilman Kevin Madden also left early, at 7:45, as had been announced at the meeting’s start. Perhaps he was not late to his other event and felt no need to concoct a phony excuse.
Blue Jeep Stalking Charlie Alexander–Charlie Alexander, whose ChucklesSport site leads the chronicling of Delaware County, Pa.’s chapter in America’s illegal immigration invasion drama, appears to be being stalked by a blue jeep.
The Marple man even got its picture.
It’s pretty solid evidence that Charlie is over some kind of target. This kind of effort isn’t wasted on crazy cranks.
Delco Prepares Extending Solid Waste Authority Until 2074
By Sharon Devaney
Delaware County (Pa) Council, May 1, passed first readings of ordinances that would extend the Delaware County Solid Waste Authority until Jan 1, 2074. The extension is needed for the authority to incur debt said County Solicitor Jonathan Lichtenstein.
In other business, the Council passed 33 consent items including an application to the FY2r Enhanced Collaborative Model Task Force to combat Human Trafficking in the amount of $750,000 for three years from Oct. 1, 2024 through Sept. 30, 2027; and to accept $748,500 HealthChoices Reinvestment dollars from the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services for the implementation of the Integrated Clinical Services Team.
Council appointed Mathew McGlaughlin and Jamal Johnson to the Economic Development Oversight Board to a term ending March 31; Councilwoman Christine Reuther to the Economic Development Oversight Board for a term ending March 31; and Sustainability Manager Rebecca Yurkovich to serve on a temporary basis as designee to the Board of Sustainable Energy Partnership of Southeast Pa in case of the unavailability of the appointed board member and the county sustainability director.
Illegal Crisis Explained At United4Delco Event — Charlie Alexander and Sharon Devaney have become the faces of the illegals crisis in Delaware County, Pa.
They were United4Delco‘s speakers, last night, May 2, at Gatsby’s Bar and Grill in Aston.
Sharon’s story is well known to our readers. She has also told it many times at Delco Council meetings despite sneers from councilmembers.
At about 8 a.m., April 10, 2017, Sharon’s Toyota Camry was t-boned at Lawrence and Ellis roads in Haverford Township, Pa. She was left crippled. Her daughter was with her and would have likely been killed if it was her door that was hit.
The driver of the striking car was an illegal alien from Trindad and Tobago. She was let walk away without arrest or any consequence.
Sharon says the woman still lives in the county.
Charlie, whose writings have spun the heads of Delco’s Democrats, explained what got him involved with the matter.
Actually, not that long ago he was a Democrat, he says. That began to change after Obama’s election, though. He says 2008 was the last time he voted D.
A few months ago, Charlie was told that plans were in the works to use the shuttered Delaware County Memorial Hospital in Upper Darby and Springfield Hospital to house illegals.
He called the county’s public relations department. When he described what he was trying to get confirmed or denied, initial friendliness turned cold. He was told to email his questions. Charlie did but got no response. He contacted them again without satisfaction. He wrote about it at his site, Chuckles Sports.
This begat a smear campaign with Delco officials accusing him of being a MAGA AI bot.
Charlie didn’t back down. He says his sources are reliable and in position to have knowledge of county plans.
He was told Delco planned to use the buildings at Don Guanella to house illegals.
Again, he said his sources were reliable and in position to know.
He says this was being orchestrated by non-governmental organizations such as HIAS, which started as Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society.
The county of course continues to deny it.
Charlie is not a keyboard warrior. He has gone on the scene to investigate support groups for illegals and reports of suspicious vans at locations suspected of being part of the transportation network for illegals.
Charlie spoke at Wednesday’s, May 1, council meeting and gave councilmembers a blueprint as to how to win trust, which is basically to start trying to solve the problem rather than defensively denying it exists.
County Council has only itself to blame when people believe the worst. Those who stonewall and gaslight simply can’t be trusted.
What is the big secret with Fort Orange Press, anyway?
Delco Must Act On Election Concerns — Delaware County, Pa., Council was schooled on trust, last night, May 1, when Joy Schwartz of Upper Darby pointed out the restrictions imposed by election observers at the county’s ballot counting center at the Wharf in Chester.
Mrs. Schwartz was an observer during the April 23 primary. She said observers’ were required to leave cell phones and purses in their cars, and they were confined to a pen far from the counting.
“We can see absolutely nothing,” she said.
The Wharf is where all ballots from mailboxes and dropboxes are processed. State law exempts it from the rules governing precincts. This means pollwatchers have no power or right to access.
County Council must change this.
Assuming it wants its elections to be trusted.
Carris Kocher of Concord pointed out that Delaware County has almost a quarter of Pennsylvania’s dropboxes.
This is more than Philadelphia and Pittsburgh combined.
There is little need for dropboxes. Mailboxes are accessible 24/7 and are ubiquitous. Dropboxes are a costly and unnecessary expense. They invariably create distrust, and complicate the logistics of the ballot stream pointlessly extending election night.
County Council should get rid of the dropboxes.
Barb Lewis of Radnor pointed out that the public is being kept from seeing the workings of the voting machines.
Good point. Why should the IP concerns of private corporations take precedence over election transparency? C’mon, Mr. and Ms. and Whatever Democrat. Answer that one.
Ms. Lewis wants to eliminate voting machines and return to handcounting, as did Mrs. Schwartz.
As does Scott Thomas of Marple. Thomas is a judge of elections. He says the machines are overly complicated.
Kathy from Haverford said there is plenty of proof elections are stolen. She also noted that Delco has yet to remove its restrictions from posting on its Facebook page.
If Delco addresses the reasonable concerns of the skeptics, the skepticism goes away.
Seriously, what is the big secret involving Fort Orange Press?
Delco Must Act On Election Concerns
Delco Spending $56 Million On Prison — The warden of George Hill Correctional Facility told Delaware County, Pa., Council, last night, May 1, that the prison’s budget was $56 million but it was just a peachy neat place now with teachers and nurses and such.
Delco is spending $13 million more on incarceration than in 2019. Warden Laura Williams, however, said wages are up for workers and everything is going great and they are getting rewards and honors and stuff.
Of course, not every one agrees about things going great. See here and here and here.
In fact, during public comments an African immigrant told council that he was unjustly fired as a corrections officer.
Also, Kimberly Brown of Colwyn said the raises disproportionately went to certain employees.
Also, Boothwyn tech guru Ed Trice described his “all-expense paid, 10-day vacation” at Hill, two years ago, when it was somehow thought he was involved in Flash Crash 2010. It wasn’t peachy neat.
Trice was there for other things and had not planned to speak . Ms. Williams’ presentation, though, inspired him.
There was a bald, blinding and necessary revelation in Ms. Williams’ too-long corporate spiel. It concerned the inmates at Hill with serious mental illness.
Pennsylvania has left just two long-term state mental hospitals. These are Norristown and Torrance near Pittsburgh.
Inmates with mental illness can’t move through the system until treated and these are the only places where this can be done.
The waits are long.
Councilwoman Christine Reuther said the state is spending less for mental health than it did in 2007.
In 1960, when homelessness and mass shootings were not major issues, there were three times as many incarcerated in mental hospitals than prisons in America. By Y2K, it was six times as many in prisons. The ratio has certainly gotten worse.
Delco Spending $56 Million On Prison
Ominous Warning For Delco Officials — Robert Mancini of Media told Delaware County, Pa., Council, last night, May 1, that he has filed criminal charges against one Delco official, April 23, and will be filing charges against another in two weeks.
He also said he is writing a federal complaint against one official “who is in the room” but won’t file it if this official resigns.
We await.
