He is still disbarred-for now, but that won’t last for long either.

I believe this is the same thing ex-acting Sheriff Galinsky is suing the County for. She will probably win too.

Jarimillo convicted of corruption charges in the Carona scandal and did local time.

Whoever failed to do their job and advise Jarimillo of his appeallate rights is not being sued. Chances are he or she will walk away totally unscathed. This should have gone through human resources too and been checked with a fine toothed comb. The innocent taxpayers get screwed again while the ACTUAL VIOLATORS who FAILED US are not named or punished.

The whole system is a scam.

How can so many posts waste time….make a living….bk is good.

You know, it is funny you should mention this today. I was thinking about two cases today, the OC social workers case and the $12 million judgement that San Diego lawyer Shawn McMillan got against OC, and the Michael Kerkeles police/DA corruption and misconduct case in San Jose, the case where the cops and DA fabricated fake evidence and then committed perjury in court. Nothing happened to any of the parties in either of those two cases of egregious and outrageous abuse of government misconduct. No one was fired. No one was disciplined. And who pays?? You, me, the public, and what happens next?? More of the same because then the Bat Signal goes up that no matter how much misconduct you engage in as a government employee, no matter what a civil court rules in terms of liability, the government employee will face no discipline and will view that as a green light to do it over and over and over again. And criminal charges are RARELY brought.

I predict that he fat deputy that shot an unarmed innocent Marine will be held liable for millions in civil court (no criminal charges), and that he will get promoted. In government the Peter Principle works at full force, incompetent people are the ones currently employed, they then hire other incompetent people (while competent applicants are DQ’d, never hired), and then the incompetent employees get promoted and hire more incompetent employees. Rinse, repeat cycle, rinse, repeat cycle over and over.

The first thing I started to think of at the end when Stockman said the money MUST be removed ($100 max contributions) was the Citizens United SCOTUS ruling.

CU said spending unlimited money was a 1st Amendment right, and that included corporations, 90% of Americans disagree with the CU ruling by the SCOTUS. Stockman proposed a constitutional amendment to cure the big money spending problem, and under CU I don’t know if such an amendment would be ruled constitutional, not under the SCOTUS’s current make up.

Like Bill Black said, we need to change the make up/philosophy of the SCOTUS if they keep making rulings/law like CU. Corps are not people and they should not have a right to spend unlimited amounts of money, neither should public (or private) unions, no artificial entity should have that right.

Why would OCSD care if turns out to be an unjustified shooting and the family wins $10M in court? OCSD and the cop who killed Loggins won’t pay a nickle of the judgment. The OC taxpayers will foot the entire bill. So why would OCSD change their ‘shoot first’ policy? The killer gets a few months of paid admin leave and vaca time. The Sheriff gets her full budget for the next fiscal year. All compliments of the taxpayer.

What a f’ed system, eh?

Yep. David Stockman is the real deal. He has no loyalty to any of these political clowns. He’ll even go after his old boss, Ronny Reagan. At the end of the video Stockman said in order to solve the problem we have to take all the big corporate and union money out of politics. And he’s not naive. He knows that the chances of that happening are slim and none.

You would never see a guy like Stockman appointed to a cabinet level position again, Rex. No doubt he is viewed as a pariah and traitor by the big dem and repub powers in Wash DC. I have no idea what motivates the guy. My guess is that he is just a good, decent human being who adheres to a moral compass. No wonder he has been ostracized by the DC crowd.

Don’t leave out that there would be no $74K per year parking lot attendants either.

hey Beelz, that David Stockman interview was awesome, and so on the money. Int he end, minute 34-35, he said the exact same thing that the other Moyer interview said, with the two authors of Winner Take All Politics, that MONEY MUST be taken out of politics, not just Big Business but also public unions.

Public Sector employment in many locations has morphed from on;y filling appropriate jobs to widespread make-work positions for the marginally employable ….. all at huge and unnecessary cost to taxpayers.
