"This (Holmdel) official voted to have town pay for his home repairs, county prosecutor says"




Link to article on nj.com:




The Holmdel Committeeman voted with blatant conflicts of interest to benefit himself financially, just like many Lodi politicians do.


What the Holmdel Committeeman did appears really bad.  However, at least he never wrote about an obnoxious NJEA activist on his blog.  That would have been a lot worse.

Statement on Phil Murphy and his Administration’s continued efforts to get me suspended for truthful “blog posts” even though I am already off the board…


The decision by Elissa Mizzone Testa and Phil Murphy's administration further reinforces that New Jersey is the corruption state controlled by the NJEA. The decision says more about Elissa Mizzone Testa and the Phil Murphy administration than it does about me. 


I stand by my posts and my free speech rights. I am proud of what my blog has accomplished and the enemies it has made.


I have brought the highest ethical standards to the board. Testa's actions were a sad attempt to taint my name and accomplishments. 


My blog has exposed many powerful people and their corruption.   This was their way of getting revenge by interfering in a local election and stifling the free speech of a government watchdog.


The School Ethics Commission and its director Kathryn Whalen are a bunch of cowards. They never attempted to suspend me while I was on the board because they know that it would have blown up on them and made them look really bad.  It would have exposed them for what they are- a political arm of the governor that turns a blind eye to criminal activities of board members throughout the state.  Two national groups were ready to jump in to take on the NJEA and defend my free speech if the Murphy administration tried to penalize me for "blog posts" while I was still in office.  The School Ethics Commission did a complete reversal from it prior decisions and went against me as I was leaving the board.  Its penalty for "blog posts" would not affect me yet it would satisfy the Murphy administration and the NJEA.


If I was a board member taking bribes or placing unqualified relatives in six figure positions, the Murphy administration would be giving me awards.  Because I fought corruption, it says I should be penalized.
