The Gateway Pundit has reported extensively on allegations and investigations against Dolton, Illinois, Mayor Tiffany Henyard dubbed ‘the worst mayor in America.’

While investigations are still ongoing, Henyard decided spending on a lavish party that was sparsely attended seemed like a great idea.

Henyard reportedly spent $85,000 on a party that featured R&B singer Keke Wyatt and rapper J. Holiday in August that, according to media reports, only 70 people attended.

Records show Keke Wyatt was paid $30,000 to sing for 30 minutes. J. Holiday was paid $20,000 for a half-hour set. The township spent $6,600 to rent inflatable bounce houses. Other costs billed to township taxpayers include everything from comedians to a sound system, staff to equipment and bring the total to at least $85,769.

Henyard has been under FBI investigation for abusing her power after she shut down businesses that didn’t donate to her campaign.

In March, Henyard reportedly vetoed an investigation, unanimously approved by The Dolton Village Board, into allegations that she misused funds for lavish expenses and a costly $1 million security detail.

The village’s general fund, which pays the majority of its expenses, went from a multimillion-dollar surplus to a deficit of nearly $5 and a half million in just two years.

One of Henyard’s former assistants also accused Henyward of ‘unethical and predatory behavior.’

If you can’t party like a rock star on the taxpayer’s money, what good is it being Mayor.

Sounds like a Wallace and Gromit spinoff. “Party in the Henyard: Cackling Cukoos”

She’s been doing this sort of thing for dome time. Why don’t they get rid of her?

I seem to recall that in the late 18th century, towns and states, perhaps, coined or printed limited amounts of their own “money” to be used primarily in those areas? Later the C.S.A. did the same in the early 1860’s.
Is there still a legal option that the village board could use to print or coin more of their own local money to plug that deficit there?
Would that even work? for a while...?

That’s how the 3rd world arrives here.

Get enough like her in positions of authority and they will drag the entire system down. Ive read that’s what some of those nations are like; Every official from the dog catcher to mayor has to be paid off. Nothing can be done easily…graft everywhere.

This clip from the movie Lords of War comes to mind:

The article indicated the Mayor vetoed a bill unanimously approved by the City Council, they must not have the ability to override a Mayor’s veto.

The mayor is using the taxpayer’s money as her own personal reparations fund, so it’s okay if she’s partying like a rock star.

Very possible, her campaign slogan, “I can spend more than anyone”, vote for me.

She’ll start wearing a new wardrobe that looks like the suits Nascar Drivers wear, with all their sponsors with a sewn-on patch.

The city could be one of those places that don’t allow recalls of sitting politicians or the rules to recall a politician are so confusing that it makes recalling a politician nearly impossible.
