Casals-Muñoz on the outside again in GOP prez primary

Okay, so Ladra’s been busy and begs for scraps of forgiveness from the political junkies that need her particularly sarcastic java. But I’m baaack. And in a new venue, tracking a new scent. Or several ominous odors, as it were. Despite the barrage of distractions, both random and deliberate (more on that later), there has […]

Trying to be impartial despite haters

Trying to be impartial despite haters

Yes, Ladra is back. I’m preparing a few posts on things going on in Hialeah, Miami Lakes, the county, Homestead and elsewhere. (More on that later). Ladra has been absent for a while because, let’s say I’ve been distracted. In addition to having to work on my actual paying job in social media and media […]

Political payback: rewards & revenge

Political payback: rewards & revenge

Some have been promoted. Others have been punished. But make no mistake about the changes going on at Hialeah City Hall and in the city police department: The political payback and retaliation has begun with employees who were involved in the city’s mayoral and council elections last month. Those who supported and helped su alcaldito Carlos […]

Political con artist’s AKA unveiled

Political con artist’s AKA unveiled

You heard it here first. Actually, months ago. Ladra is not just a public watchdog. She’s a political psychic. Back in April, when a Miami Lakes dentist sued Constant Contact about an email he says defamed him to find out who the signed author “Sandra Lopez” really was, Ladra came right out and bet it […]

Kissing the ring at the swearing-in

Kissing the ring at the swearing-in

The swearing-in ceremony at Hialeah City Hall Friday was more like a circus or a carnival than a solemn, vow-taking induction for a new (same as the old) government body. From the Mariachis to the teary-eyed thank you from Su Alcaldito Carlos Hernandez when he mentioned his financial backer, Roberto Cayon to the three-part harmony from three female judges who swore in […]

Su alcaldito’s reign of terror begins

Su alcaldito’s reign of terror begins

Hours after he felt the confidence boost of his election — through fraud, lies and trickery — to the mayor’s seat he has exploited for months, Hialeah’s alcaldito Carlos Hernandez again abused his power Tuesday night. From a booth at Flannigan’s. And he may abuse his power against employees he will likely now target because they supported former […]

Martinez concedes, but it ain’t over

Former Hialeah Mayor Raul Martinez conceded early Tuesday night as soon as the absentee ballot machinery of su alcaldito Carlos Hernandez showed it had almost a 4,000 vote lead. A suspicious 4,363 vote lead counting ABs and early voting numbers.“Se acabo,” Martinez told supporters as he made his way outside to the TV cameras. “It’s over.” He […]

Election Day turnout low in Hialeah

The election in Hialeah is today but the results have likely already been decided. Voters trickled in one and two at a time Tuesday morning at three of the bigger polling places: The Salvation Army, the Moose Lodge and the JFK Library. And that spells doom for former Mayor Raul Martinez, who is in the […]

ALF voters "assisted" in electing

One of the most outrageous things seen during the pretty riduculous Hialeah elections came Friday when a group of elderly and confused residents from an assited living facility on West 18th Avenue were driven to the early voting site in a chartered school bus and were “assisted” in voting by people working for or supporting Su Alcaldito […]

AB fraud machine caught on video

The video doesn’t tell the whole story but begins to peel back the onion on the absentee ballot fraud that is going on in Hialeah, perpetrated by the campaign for su alcaldito Carlos Hernandez and his campaign manager, AB Fraud Queen Sasha Tirador. Taken by Political Cortadito cameraman Raul “El Toro” Torres and posted on […]
