This town ain't wuffa sheet.
The bureaucracy is going to rally behind whichever gestapo groups will back them.
This Govt is not here for us. It's here for itself. Perreault tells us we should be grateful to the employees. Well I say they don't work for us, they work for the CityManager. It's a sad day in the world if we now have to give thanks & bonus points to someone who does the RightThing, over the lazy/selfish/biased thing. I expect excellence!

Taxpayers need to show up at both the city and county hearings on the budget / taxes. On the city council, we have two who promised us, and they need to be held to their promises. Did Brabo ever make a promise? On the county commission, we have three who vote for the taxpayers and four who have nothing but contempt for taxpayers - Rliberal RINOs andy Walker and Frankie Waters, and the two Democrats

What was done to take Nick Fritz off the board should shock the community to turn deciseviely against those responsible..

The A-holes wont even return phone calls or emails!
What they want from the constituents is to butt-out, except when the tax bill comes due. They want our $$ but not us.
The county is better than the City but still not good.
I recall Randy Walker saying they had a hearing on taxes and no one showed up. Well, its not hard to learn that WeThePpl will be ignored regardless. I'm not going to beg them to practice good govt.
I'm fed up with all of them, why do they circle the wagons against us?
So when we contact a U.S. Senator, we understand they are probably really busy...but what is the excuse for the officials of a town of less than 10,000.

Washingtonian, The thug-ocracy around Sadler and Tyre has made this town a pint-sized banana republic. Their goon squad sent to intimidate the customers and employees of Fritz' restaurant and then to go to Fritz' home in Smallwood to threaten his family was reprehensible. Their campaign on the internet to intimidate Joe Davis is reprehensible. It is still unclear what their approach to Perrault may be. They are trying to marginalize Brabo.

Citizens need to rally around the elected officials not subservient to Sadler and Tyre. We need an end to this era of dirty local politics.

That Sadler / Tyre political machine seems to be a blend of Tammany Hall and the Black Panthers, both crooked and vicious.

The Sadler clique seems to be going after those who won the 2025 city election. What they did to Nick Fritz is appalling. They are also clearly targeting Joe Davis in a different way. One wonders what cards they have played with Perrault to get him to participate in the attacks on Joe Davis? Brabo, Davis, and Parrault are all on the target list of this power mad group, and if they are smart they will all comprehend that they need to hang together so that they will not hang separately. The first part of that is for Perrault to recognize that he needs to get off of Tyre's bandwagon. They want to end his political career as much as they do those of Fritz, Davis, and Brabo.

"The Shadow," What do yu think we can do about it? From where I'm
sitting, it appears to me that the majority of the commenters on Beaufort County NOw, would rather talk about one of the other 50 states, DC, or even a foreign nation. The Cabal is currently trying to destroy Davis. Why? I guess because he wont obey.

Someone posted that the pressure on Nick Fritz was a possible boycott of his business, It was worse, a lot worse. It reflects the thug-ocracy Washington lived under until last December and that wants to come back to power in the worst way.

What happened at Fritz' restaurant was that some thugs showed up to harass customers. They were big burly guys of the same ethnicity as Sadler and Tyre. At first they just hung out in front of the restaurant intimidating customers. Then they started coming inside, raising a ruckus, and harassing his employees as well as customers.

What could Fritz do? If he took any action, they would undoubtedly scream "racism". Anything he did would hurt his business. Then, it got worse, the same thugs started threatening his family. No elected official signs up for that kind of treatment.

The head thug now seems to have left town, probably using his intimidation tactics on someone else. Washington has lost one of its best council members in some time.
