Sometimes the best place to look is under your nose;

So someone tipped me off that the sudden change in the board at Mt. Pleasant Cemetery had to do with the forced sale of Gage Brothers to a competitor in Minnesota. Read the comments from the above post. WOW!

Complicated. I encourage everyone to read all the posts from the beginning (if you FF thru the deer pics and remodeling projects 🙂 there is some juicy stuff in there, like this;

Oct 27

I’m posting this morning about my conversation today with Kayla Kleman in the department of consumer affairs in the attorney general’s office.

Her response was that all complaints were forwarded to the new board for response to all of your complaints.

My previous letter of August 29th states that she sent the complaint to the previous board and they did not respond in 20 days. She would not send me anything in writing. Please contact Marty Jackley and ask why this problem is being pushed off on the new board!Call 1 800 300 1986. Remember he said he would help if enough people were involved. NO HELP SO FAR!

Funny how Marty gets in front of the camera a lot these days trying to track down cartoon porn, drug dealing prison guards and extensive fraud throughout state government, but when there is obvious tax fraud, malfeasance, and disappearing funds the AG office goes radio silence to protect certain folks. Reminds me of Marty covering up the sexual harassment scandal at DCI and claiming Pat and Gant did nothing wrong in the SOS office because they didn’t steal money from the petty cash draw (just historic flags and intellectual data, no biggie) all the while our current mayor was playing server musical chairs with Dakotawusscollege.

I guess if I was the NEW board of Mt. Pleasant, I wouldn’t want Marty’s help, I would go straight to the Feds. If you think you are going to get any help from Pierre you would probably have better luck finding the LOSER that stole your Christmas Wreath.

I would see if you can get a retired attorney to help you navigate this fiasco and sue the former board and get your money back.

This is a classic case of established rich folks in town taking regular folks to the cleaners and suffering no consequences. No surprise, this state is so corrupt I’m not surprised it hasn’t collapsed on itself.

1st Amendment abortion Larry Rhoden Marty Jackley South Dakotans

Rhoden and Jackley apparently don’t know what the 1st Amendment is

So Larry and Marty think they are cracking down on crime;

Governor Larry Rhoden is urging Attorney General Marty Jackley to investigate a new abortion ad campaign, appearing at gas stations across the state.

The ad campaign is being broadcast by Mayday Health, advertising abortion pills at 30 gas stations in 20 South Dakota cities.

Governor Rhoden specifically cites SDCL 22-17-5.1 and SDCL 36-4-8.

“All ad campaigns, no matter what the issue, need to follow state laws and fair trade practices,” said Jackley. “We will review these ads and determine if any laws have been broken. If laws have been broken, we will take appropriate action.”

The advertisement doesn’t perform abortions or dispense abortion pills it simply advertises a website where you can get help. They have a 1st Amendment right to advertise and the laws referenced above are about performing or assisting in abortions. Last time I checked a billboard can’t perform abortions.

While I know Rhoden is this stupid, I would think Jackley would know the US Constitution and Free Speech Rights. They could ask them to cease and desist, but they don’t have to comply. If they try to indict this organization it will be laughed out of court. They will likely get a stern letter from Jackboots and pull the ads. They have already served their purpose and by announcing this potential indictment you just gave them more press then they know what to do with. Idiots.

My bigger question is if the media will do a counter story about the 1st Amendment violations? You would think a news organization would be protecting their advertisers.

Marty Jackley Open Government Open Meetings South Dakotans State Funding State Legislature

South Dakota closed government, ripe with corruption

Our AG recently said that state government needs to be more transparent in the wake of all the rats stealing from the citizen coffers. If you think this is just a handful of bad actors, I can guarantee there are probably hundreds of state employees stealing from us. Why? Because, first off, it is RICH coming from a guy who helped cover up a DCI sexual harassment case, EB-5 and Gear-up. This is the guy promoting open government? LMFAO!

With one-party rule basically controlling most of the offices in South Dakota who is going to investigate wrong doings or lack of open government? Good question.

I keep telling people that OPEN government saves taxpayers money because it roots out unethical, fraudulent and corrupt actors. Open government is also more efficient because you don’t have to play the hiding secrets game so things get done much more quickly.

I don’t have much confidence in our AG telling us he is working towards a more open government, coming from a guy who has a Cummins Diesel engine attached to his paper shredder.

EB-5 Gear Up Marty Jackley

Should the Gear Up & EB-5 program investigations resume now that Jackley is AG again?

No better time then now to investigate Jackley and his role in both of those scandals. I suggest a bipartisan legislative group employ independent counsel to re-open the investigations. I started thinking about this after someone recently sent me this photo of Mike Myers and Lora Hubbel ‘shooting holes’ in the 5-foot branch theory that Richard Benda shot himself.

The Authoritarian Right Wingers really had quite the week pushing their Wacky Radical agenda onto a majority of Americans and South Dakotans that don’t support their ideas;

JACKLEY GETS NOMINATED AS THE GOP CANDIDATE FOR SD ATTORNEY GENERAL

If there ever was a time I wish Jason Rumblestrips didn’t hit and kill Joe Boever, it is NOW. The SD Dem Party must dig deep to find someone to run against this guy. Remember, this is a person who covered up Gear Up and EB-5, and probably numerous other things, and if you think he has changed, you are mistaken. He has an axe to grind, and it won’t be pretty. Ravnsborg may have been a liar, a dope and a killer, but he isn’t a Marty.

NOEM SAYS IT IS A TRAGEDY TO ABORT A BABY CONCEIVED BY RAPE OR INCEST

In one of her more bizarre incidents, Noem said on Face the Nation that victims of rape and incest should be forced to have the child conceived in violence. It was probably one of the most despicable things I have ever heard her say. When she claims to be for Freedom and Liberty then turns around and forces raped children to have a child produced by their attacker, you have to wonder what is going on in her head. Cue the circus music.

ROE VS. WADE OVERTURNED

I even tell my single male friends that this decision will have further implications in the Supreme Court. They are coming for your contraception and partner rights. A majority of Americans support safe and legal abortion clearly showing our SCOTUS is extremely out of touch with Americans.

A TRUMPLICAN GETS NOMINATED AS THE SD GOP CANDIDATE FOR SOS

It’s one thing for this Stop the Steal supporter to get nominated as SOS, but her extremist views on voter registration, religion and all things wacky to the right should scare the Hell out of us. I BEG the SD DEM Party to find a strong candidate to run against Ms. Johnson. What is even more strange is that they booted an incumbent who has done a fairly decent job. My feelings are they booted Barnett because he was trying to make voting easier in SD by supporting online registration and voting by mail. Even the Republicans in this state hate moderate Republicans.

GUN CONTROL TAKES A STEP FORWARD AND A STEP BACK

While the President did sign a bi-partisan bill for more gun control, it was watered down by the Republicans involved in the negotiations. It also did not help that SCOTUS said it was A-OK to carry a concealed weapon Federally not allowing states to regulate the 2nd Amendment. A majority of Americans support comprehensive gun control.

PRIVATE RELIGIOUS SCHOOLS CAN RECEIVE VOUCHERS

This is only the case in states that have a voucher program. I am vehemently against vouchers. I have argued that if property tax payers can receive vouchers when choosing to send their children to private schools then I should receive a voucher for choosing NOT to have children. I especially think it is reprehensible to fund religious schools with money meant to go towards public education. The SCOTUS got this one wrong on many levels, as well as their ruling on prayer in schools. SCOTUS is virtually ignoring 1st Amendment rights and Separation of Church and state.
