"PAYTO PLAY" GANGSTER DEVELOPERS LED BY REX JENSEN SENDS A CLEAR MESSAGE THAT NEAL'S JUNTA DOES NOT WANT A BLACK MAN AS A SARASOTA COUNTY COMMISSIONER
"DESPITE NEAL'S JUNTA IT IS NO BRAINER THAT ATKINS IS BEYOND A DOUBT THE MOST QUALIFIED TO BE ELECTED SARASOTA COUNTY COMMISSIONER IN 2022
SMITH IS JUST ANOTHER NEAL AND HIS JUNTA GANGSTER PAY TO PLAY DEVELOPERS LACKEY MANAGED BY SLEAZY DIRT BAG POLITICAL OPERATIVES
Seidman
Pat Neal and his "Pay to Play" gangster developers are echoing what Carrie Seidman stated in 2019, "denying a Black man from serving on the Sarasota County Commission repeats historical racial injustices and black voter suppression and sends a clear message to the Black neighborhood that, once again, the white majority controls its fate."
REAL SICK S*** PUT OUT BY SICK PEOPLE--ON ELECTION DAY WE WILL FIND OUT HOW MANY SICK PEOPLE GO ALONG WITH THIS SICK S*** FROM SMITH'S SICK OPERATIVES
Recent campaign contributions from Neal and his gangster cronies are funneling $thousands to Smith's political operatives Mac Stevenson and Stafford Jones for flyers, which paint Atkins as an angry Black man to be feared and disturbing looking like Willy Horton in a hit piece put out in the 1988 presidential campaign.
The picture of Atkins is not a picture of Atkins with his fellow former fellow City of Sarasota mayors; Not a picture of Atkins of his wife of 43 years; Not a picture of Atkins with his three children; It is not a picture of Atkins with his 98 year old mother; Not a picture of Atkns at his 40 year SHS reunion, which was the first segregated class at SHS.
The local political fossil Neal
NEAL AND HIS"PAY TO PLAY" GANGSTER DEVELOPERS HAVE TAKEN OFF THEIR MASKS
TAKE OUT ATKINS
Neal's and his "Pay to Play" gangster developers and their cronies led by Rex Jensen have taken off their masks and have come out in the open funneling thousands of dollars to an architect from Siesta Key, Mark Smith to take out Fredd Atkins, who they can't stuff in their pockets.
Culverhouse
Neal's JUNTA led by Jensen's recent campaign contributions to Smith paints what Hugh Culverhouse Jr. called Sarasota after Neal and his cronies disenfranchised Atkins and over 8,000 other Blacks in 2019; "A mean-spirited, racist town, a place to avoid."
Benderson's Promenade & proposed hotels on Siesta Key
If you like Gary Kompothecras hotels on Siesta Key--you will like Mark Smith; If you like Randy Benderson's Promenade Project on Stickney Point -- you will like Mark Smith; If you like Rex Jensen's Miakka developments -- you will like Mark Smith, if you like Carlos Beruff Long Bar Pointe development -- you will like Smith.
SMITH BEING MANAGED BY NEAL'S POLITICAL OPERATIVES
Smith is being handled by the usual Neal led JUNTA dirt bag political operatives. Those operatives are the political frauster Bob Waechter, longtime Neal political hit man Mac Stevenson and Neal's bag man in Tallahassee, Stafford Jones.
This outrageous evil racist attempt by Stevenson and Jones on behalf of Smith to make Atkins look like an angry Black man to stroke fear and anxiety among white voters is outrageous.
Ziegler
ZIEGLER WANTS NOTHING TO DO WITH SMITH CAMPAIGN
The flyers sent out by a Neal political operative in Tallahassee, Jones and another dirt bag Neal political operative in Laurel Park, Stevenson are so hateful and evil that the Vice Chairman of Republican Party of Florida (RPOF) Christian Ziegler wants nothing to do with them.
For example, Ziegler called this reporter and stated he had nothing to do with the flyers sent out by Jones and put together by Stevenson. Ziegler also stead he has nothing to do with Smith campaign against Atkins.
The PAC called the Better Leadership Fund out of Tallahassee managed by Jones have put out the hit piece on Atkins. Jones's managed PAC has paid Smith's political operative Stevenson $7,400 to put out political hit pieces on Smith's Republican primary opponent Lourdes Ramirez and Atkins.
SMITH IN BED WITH FLORIDA'S SLEEAZIST DIRT BAG POLITICAL OPERATIVES
SMITH IS JUST ANOTHER NEAL AND HIS JUNTA GANGSTER PAY TO PLAY DEVELOPERS LACKEY
Stevenson has long history of using dirty, dark PAC money out of Eric "The Prince of Dirty Dark PAC Money" Robinson office in Venice to manage political campaigns. One of his managed campaigns is for Smith, who is a handpicked candidate for Neal and his fellow "Pay to Play"gangster developers.
AND NOT A WORD FROM SHT
ANDERSON RATHER CHASE PROUD BOYS THAN "PAY TO PLAY" GANGSTER DEVELOPERS
Anderson
Zac Anderson and others at the Sarasota Herald Tribune (SHT) would rather chase Proud Boys who hang out at the Hollows than take on the "Pay to Play" gangster developer Pat Neal, who controls Sarasota County government and the Sarasota Couty Republican Party (REC) corrupting Sarasota County.
For years Anderson and his cronies at the Sarasota Herald Tribune have failed to take on Neal who controls Sarasota County government and the REC corrupting Sarasota County. Local Judges, County Commissioners down to the Sarasota County Charter Review members are all stuffed in his pockets.
STEVENSON USES 19 YEAR STEP-SON TO MOVE DIRTY DARK PAC MONEY
WHILE ALLEGEDLY MANAGING MILLION DOLLAR PAC'S - FREY WAS MOONLIGHTING AS A SECOND BASEMEN FOR POLK J.C
Stevenson's devious political actions have included using his 19-year stepson Skylar Frey as a front in moving Dirty Dark PAC money to attack opponents of his clients and provide funds for his consultant company, Political Insights. The UNITED CONSERVATIVES FOR FLORIDA PAC created in 2016 has Frey as Chairperson and Robinson as Treasurer and Register Agent.
The PAC remains active with Frey as Chairperson and Robinson as Treasurer and Register Agent with over $165,000 in contributions in 2022.
The PAC exemplifies how corrupt local and Florida politics have become in that Frey's address listed on the PAC is a Winter Haven address that Frey has not lived there for over two years. Frey, who has never met Robinson also admitted he has absolutely no idea who contributes to the PAC's or where the expenditures go.
So while over $1.4 million in contributions and expeditures have been flowing in and out of the Robinson and Chairman of the Republican Party of Florida Joe Gruters' accouting office in Venice, the Chairman of the PAC's has no idea where the money is coming from or knows where it is going.
Robinson
Robinson states he does not manage the two PAC and has nothing to do with putting out the attack ads. Robinson says, he puts the PAC's together, deposits the money from contributors into the PAC's and then moves it to the entity he is instructed to move it along to.
BY THE WAY, STEVENSON'S STEPSON SINCE REGISTERING IN SARASOTA COUNTY IN 2014-FRYE HAS NEVER VOTED
AND NOT A WORD FROM THE SHT
SMITH'S HIT MAN MAJOR TIES TO NEAL'S JUNTA/TAKES $67,000 FROM JUNTA IN 2022
Benderson with two County Commissioners he has in his pockets behind him
In 2022 the UNITED CONSERVATIVES FOR FLORIDA PAC that Stevenson's stepson is chairman, there is $20,000 from Randy "Siesta Key Promenade" Benderson, $15,000 from Neal, $17,000 from Jensen and $7,000 from Larry Lieberman, who is a Carlos Beruff's BRO in that Long Bar Pointe destruction of Bay-habitat in Manatee County. Mosaic Global Sales threw in $10,000 to protect their phosphate interests.
The PAC that Stevenson's stepson is chairman, there are 29,240 in expenditures to Stevenson in 2022. In the same PAC, Stevenson received $21,000 in 2020. In 2018 Stevenson received $39,000.
In another PAC (UNITED CITIZENS FOR FLORIDA) chaired by Stevenson's stepson and Robinson just moves money around there are over $488,000 in expenditures. In 2022 there are only two contributions totally $6,500. One of the two contributions is a $5,000 kiss from the gangster Neal--THE ONLY EXPENDITURE IN THE PAC IS $5,000 FUNNELED TO SMITH'S HIT MAN, STEVENSON.
AND NOT A WORD FROM THE SHT
Jones
SMITH AND NEAL'S BAG MAN JONES MASTER OF CREATING PHONY PAC'S
Jones has replaced Robinson as the major bag man for Neal and his JUNTA moving dirty dark money for their lackeys like Smith. Jones also put Stevenson's recent hit pieces out on Hagen Brody, Dan Lobeck and Lourdes Ramirez.
Smith and Neal's bag man has managed over 100 PAC'S in the last ten years, while moving millions of dollars from one PAC to another in order to essentially corrupt the political system in a devious way.
Jones has been described by Daniel Roth of the Tampa Bay Times as, “A master of the dark arts of creating phony political committees with dubious names like “Citizens Alliance for Florida’s Economy,” or “The Responsible Government Leadership Committee.”
AND NOT A WORD FROM THE SARASOTA HERALD TRIBUNE
SMITH'S CONTINUES TO GET THOUSAND DOLLAR CHCEKS FROM NEAL'S CRONIES
The latest campaign contributions to Smith by Neal, Jensen and the other local overseers of the local political scene to Smith are outrageous, as the white elite good ole boys push their Siesta Key water boy.
Of the recent $29,900 raised by the good ole white boys, who run Sarasota politically there is 26, $1,000 checks sent to Robinson's Venice office. Robinson stuffed the money into the go along get along Siesta Key architect's Smith's campaign coffers.
Jensen pumped in another eight, $1,000 checks to make it fourteen, $1,000 checks to stuff Smith in his pocket. Jesen is the same "Pay to Play" developer, who last week received approval from Sarasota County Commissioners he has stuffed in his pockets with over $100,000 in previous campaign contributions to continue raping Sarasota County by placing 5,000 homes on undeveloped pristine land in east Sarasota County.
By the way, Smith has raised $69,950 from only 62 contributors, while in the same period of time--ATKINS HAS RAISED $33,O39 FROM 231 CONTRIBUTORS..
Also, in this recent high jacking of the Sarasota Commission race for Smith are $200 checks from Stephen, Jackson, Jeffrey and Annette Boone of the lily-white honky Boone law firm in Venice, which was capped off by a $500 check from the Boone/Boone/Boone law firm.
Not too long ago there was an ordinance on the books in Venice that a Black could not be on the streets after sunset. By the way, it might be still on the books.
TWO GULF COAST BUILDERS EXCHANGE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
There are also eight, $1,000 checks from the members of the Gulf Coast Builder Exchange (GCBX) for their Siesta Key flunky in the recent Neal's JUNTA KISS to take out Atkins. By the way, if you ever go to a GCBX social event finding a Black face in attendance is a hell of a feat.
In that recent Smith report there are $14, 000 in expenditures to advertising outlets in Tallahassee and Washington D. C to send out hit pieces on Atkins, like the Horton flyer.
There is also a $2,500 kiss to Stevenson at his office in Laurel Park to go along with the other $2,500 to Stevenson from Smith campaign coffers being managed out of the Robinson/Gruters accountant office in Venice.
AND NOT A WORD FROM THE SHT
Waechter
SMITH SHOWS NO SHAME IN RECEIVING $4,000 FROM WAECHTER ARRESTED AND CONVICTED OF ELECTION FRAUD
In the recent Smith finance report there are two 1,000 checks to Smith from the DOCUMENTED racist Bob Waechter to go along with the two previous $1,000 contributions to Smith from the CONVICTED election fraudster.
Waechter, who has been arrested three times with one political fraud conviction has left a trail of outrageous lies, manipulating his way into becoming a pillar of a corrupt political system financed by multimillionaire developers like Neal, Beruff, Benderson and a few others.
Waechter has been the Neal hit man leading to just about every local politician in Neal's JUNTA'S bag, That include judges, sheriffs, the state's attorney, county commissioners and just about every other politician in the area stuffed into their pockets.
WACHTER'S RACIST REDISTRICTING MAP IN 2019
Neal's political operative drew up a map for Sarasota County Commissioners Nancy Detert, Al Maio and Mike Moran to put on their white sheets to deprive 8,000 Blacks from voting in 2019.
Also, this trio of Detert/Maio/Moran with the white sheets on, but not hiding behind a mask in broad day light deprived Atkins to take on Moran for the Sarasota County Commissioner in 2020 by approving Waechter racist map.
Waechter, who is a long-time political operative for "Pay to Play" gangster developer Neal, tried in 2020 to hide behind a mask to create a map that disenfranchised Atkins and over 8,000 other Black voters in Sarasota.
Even when it was uncovered that Waechter used the name of Adam Smith to hide the author of this racism map, Detert, Maio and Moran still voted to disenfranchise 8,000 Blacks.
The Waechter map deprived Atkins becoming the first Black man to serve on the Sarasota County Commission not in the pockets of the Neal's lily-white JUNTA.
AND NOT A WORD FROM THE SARASOTA HERALD TRIBUNE
IN 2022 THE SARASOTA COUNTY COMMISSION RACE BETWEEN ATKINS AND SMITH WILL DECIDE IF NEAL AND HIS WHITE JUNTA CAN DENY A BLACK MAN TO SERVE ON THE SARASOTA COUNTY COMMISSION
SMITH IS ANOTHER NEAL PAY TO PLAY GANGSTER DEVELOPERS LACKEY MANAGED BY SLEAZY NEAL DIRT BAG POLITICAL OPERATIVES
IT IS A NO BRAINER THAT ATKINS IS BEYOND A DOUBT THE MOST QUALIFIED TO BE ELECTED SARASOTA COUNTY COMMISSIONER IN 2022 OR ANY OTHER YEAR
Fredd Atkins's campaign for the Sarasota County Commission will decide if Pat Neal's "Pay to Play" gangster developers will once again deny a Black man like Atkins from serving on the Sarasota County Commission as they did in 2019 and tried to do once again in 2021.
