Comments for Washington, N.C., Deserves Better Than This

Small cities rarely make headlines. Their struggles - fiscal mismanagement, leadership vacuums, the slow erosion of public trust - play out in school gymnasiums and wood-paneled council chambers, witnessed by a handful of residents and largely ignored by the world outside.

I despise what is woke. It makes me real mad that they breath the same air as me and mine.

Woke: At least you did not lie about your alias.

We regular folk who live in the City of Washington appreciate real elected leaders, who are smart, and care about not defrauding their constituents by using higher taxes to fund pet projects that are purely self-serving, at least in a political sense, or worse.

For you who are "Woke," we understand that you appreciate the subterfuge of obfuscation, mendacity and fraud. We hard working, real folk just are not that way, the way of the "Woke."

BRABO, FRITZ AND DAVIS are liars, frauds, criminals. Fritz hates the republican party. He used the party to get elected. He hates Trump, and all the local republicans. He played you. Brabo is an absolute disgrace. The only sitting mayor in the entire country suing their own city. And Davis is a proven habitual liar and fraud. He's unhinged, and clearly mentally unstable. The whole city has turned on these three. They are the most hated three people in the city of washington. Whoever Anthony votes for is fine with me. I trust his judgement more than I do any MAGAT.

Strong piece. I've lived here my whole life and I've never seen a council member treat a city employee the way Perreault/TYRE has treated Mr. Roberson in those meetings. Whatever your politics, that man deserves respect. Forty-plus years of service and this is what he gets? We can do better.

To the new City of Washington Council majority: You should take your time; catch your governing breath; better learn your jobs, and do not rush into making a terrible decision that you can not extricate yourselves from without further damaging your terrible financial position.

We city of Washington residents just can't catch a break when it comes to governing with some modicum of good sense. We need the new board majority to stick together and make a stand, a stand that even Government Man could be proud of.

DO NOT hurry yourselves into making an egregiously stupid decision!

This is egregious that the conservative city council would hire a far left loonie toon for the city’s top position and likely a dei hire ensuing from his first police chief hire
