		<description>They all knew.and.are playing voters for dummies. It’s part of the MAGAMeister agenda. Rivas is not a legitimate councilman and needs to resign or be recalled. It wouldn’t take much to do it. Ultimately the mayor will want to appoint another MAGA minion. We can’t let that happen. His only path is to appoint Tim Vanni, the people’s candidate.or be recalled or voted out himself. That’s politics. Thank you.</description>

		<description>No one states the obvious, he claims to live with his daughter and not his wife. Just to be on council¿ Couldn&#039;t watch the grandkids at the district 2 house? I don&#039;t buy it, not for a second. Liar.</description>

There is a 98% conviction rate for mail fraud. This dude is “known” to already live somewhere else. Dude is beyond cooked. Rightfully so, these politicians really think they are above the law even they’re little traumatized but crony friends.</description>

I have studied Greg&#039;s properties and reported about them...and his interests in the Rails to Trails and A new community center and park adjacent to the Rails to Trails corridor off of Henderson Avenue at Fourth Street called &quot;OVERLAND&quot;

He is scamming the city just like the rest of these republicans have for decades... Duran, PARA, endless grifters full of hate and racism trying to sue and destroy the town and its children. Send them all of to be slaves for fake Zionist wars... Vietnam or today its all the same, disempowered poor and ignorant brown people around these racists.</description>

		<description>Clearly Tim VANNI a world class Olympian should have beat this Adolfo guy who is afraid of going by his normal name, but Blessings of Liberty created an Astroturfed Mexican group called La Gente that was able to out organize the name and fame of Vanni.

34 year in law enforcement to just become a liar? Sounds about right. This is the same City Council that hasn&#039;t said anything about Meister also moving out of his District possibly, and also electing City Manager Richard Tree knowing he live outside of the city (this was brought up endlessly as an issue for Ridenour and a major point of contention between the Blessings of Liberty Hate Group and Mayor Martha Flores also)

These people are all followers and sick in the head from my perspective. We need people who want to lead, not these elderly people who should have better figured out their retirement and life... a real hobby.</description>

		<description>So it&#039;s okay to break the law?  Or, is it that the laws only apply to certain individuals?  He needs to resign, it&#039;s that simple.  

It&#039;s sad, that people are afraid to speak up for fear of retaliation and this went on for over a year.

Just remember, nothing stays a secret forever.  Let&#039;s hope that this is the end of deception by our council members in Porterville.  Lead with morals and truth and set your standards at higher standards that we expect from you.  We are watching each of you!</description>
