Scam Alert In OC
Ocean City Police Department
We have received several reports of a scam involving pizza flyers left on hotel room doors. The flyer appears to be an ad for “Romeo’s Pizza”, however, the business does not exist in Ocean City. We believe this is a ploy to get potential victims to place an order and provide a credit card number to pay for it.
If you have any information or would like to report that you were a victim of this scam, please call 410-723-6600.
Today's Big Story, Council President Jack Heath Rubber Stamps Another Massive Waterfront Taxpayer Giveaway
So let's start this off with the location. The two waterfront lots above are towards the end of Market Street near Rt. 13. Here's a number I want you to remember. In the 1970's the City of Salisbury paid $240,000.00 for ONE of these lots, (the parking lot).
The second lot has a pavilion on it. The proposal is to create an open air Bar/Restaurant/Beer Garden. When I read through the documents it became extremely evident that the Mayor, Council and Attorney purposely and carefully worded the agreement to leave out numerous commitment details. The one that made me most curious is, since this will be a completely outdoor bar/restaurant, how will they be able to remain open ALL YEAR ROUND? Will the liquor board really accept this? The Mayor and Council just sold this riverfront lot for $5,000.00!!!!! Let me spell that out, FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS.
When you look at the above document and you come to realize the City hid this entire RFP under yesterdays agenda with surplus bicycles from the Salisbury Police Department. Pretty slick, eh? Nevertheless, study the above paragraph. The crooked politicians involved KNEW this was in the works for Lord knows how many months in advance. How on God's green earth can anyone believe this entire project can be completed by August 30th, 2018? Permits, build out, health department reviews, construction and ultimately inspections, it's literally impossible. Clearly Mayor Day, (for his Good Ol' Boys) can make the impossible happen before his National Follk Festival in September, 2018.
OK, how many days a week will they remain open? Will the liquor board require, (like everyone else) they remain open most days of the year?
Then there's the following SECOND LOT, (below).
The City Taxpayers paid $240,000.00 for this lot on the river, cleared it, redesigned it to become a parking lot and then created sidewalks and curbing. So let's just say they had $400,000.00 invested into this lot. Are you serious, they just sold this riverfront lot for $15,000.00!!! YES, FIFTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS.
Here's the catch, just in case someone had some sort of heads up before last night's decision. Below you will see how the parties involved actually offered to pay $125,000.00, (which was a major steal in the first place) yet they got both lots for a total of $20,000.00. Oh hell yeah it was your election to lose.
You can GO HERE and start on page 51. Page 71 also provides more details. Look, I'm personally sick and tired of delivering all of you massive details, facts and documents only to watch you bitch and complain on a Blog and then do absolutely nothing about it.
So, the big question I have is, What are YOU going to do about this??? Maybe if we get a few more thousand ECI and MS13 members moving/renting more Salisbury properties there won't be any registered voters to give a crap anyway. It's up to you to change it. The entire City Council rubber stamped everything last night without any questions being asked.

Elijah Cummings blames Trump for political climate
Rep. Elijah Cummings, Maryland Democrat, is certainly no fan of the Trump administration, but he said Sunday that the Red Hen owner should have served White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
“As far as the restaurant incident, I think the restaurant owner should have served her. I really do,” Mr. Cummings said on CBS-TV’s “Face the Nation.”
At the same time, he blamed the increasingly vicious political climate in large part on President Trump.

Maxine Waters holy war against Trump: ‘God is on OUR side!’
Maxine Waters wants more people to harass Trump administration officials in public spaces.
The California Congresswoman went on a shouting rampage during a toy drive outside the Wilshire Federal Building on Saturday.
After claiming Trump is”sacrificing our children,” referring to the illegal immigrant kids separated from their “parents” near the border, Waters again called for the president’s impeachment, triggering loud applause from the baying mob.
“History will record while he tried to step on all of us, we kicked him in his rear and step on him,” she yelled, whipping up the crowd.
“If you think we’re rallying now, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet,” she warned.
“Already, you have members of your Cabinet that are being booed out of restaurants,” she continued as the crowd erupted, “who have protesters taking up at their house, who say, ‘No peace, no sleep. No peace, no sleep,'” she continued.
“And so, let’s stay the course. Let’s make sure we show up wherever we have to show up and if you see anybody from that Cabinet in a restaurant, in a department store, at a gasoline station, you get out and you create a crowd and you push back on them, and you tell them they’re not welcome anymore, anywhere,” she yelled.

Another ECI Update
An inside staff member contacted me today to inform me that ECI is STILL in LOCK-DOWN because they are so under staffed.
For years SBYNews has been trying to inform you just how critical the situation has been with ECI not having anywhere near enough staff. It has been a very risky situation there for far too long.
Nevertheless, we need to put pressure on our legislators to make this a priority as inmates will only be able to take so much of this before there's some kind of major situation.
Anti-Trump restaurant owner who booted Sarah Huckabee Sanders says she'd do it again
Not only does the owner of the Red Hen restaurant have no regrets about kicking out Sarah Huckabee Sanders, she insisted Saturday she would do it all over again, saying people need to “uphold their morals.”
Stephanie Wilkinson, owner of the 26-seat eatery in Lexington, Virginia, said she asked the White House press secretary to scoot after receiving a call from her chef at about 8 p.m. Friday alerting her to Ms. Sanders’ presence, then conferring with her staff.
“I would have done the same thing again,” Ms. Wilkinson told the Washington Post. “We just felt there are moments in time when people need to live their convictions. This appeared to be one.”
Ms. Wilkinson cited the press secretary’s work for the “inhumane and unethical” Trump administration.

Why Cheap Beer Is Still Awesome (And 5 You Should Enjoy This Summer)
Everywhere you look these days, attention is being paid to craft beers — heavy, hoppy small batch brews made by independent companies with artisanal recipes, new combinations of ingredients, and unique flavor profiles.
Cheap, old school beers — the kind your dad used to drink while grilling some brats or watching the World Series — have come to be looked down upon by some as boring, bland, water-downed corporate swill — the “fast food” of brews.
While craft beers can be tasty, there still a place in a man’s fridge, and definitely his koozie, for cheap beer. Today I’ll talk about why the old school stuff should still be celebrated, and make 5 suggestions to enjoy (unironically) this summer.
Let’s see what your Pops knew all along.
A Very Brief History of “Cheap” Beer
When I talk about “cheap beer,” I’m talking about any domestic beer sold in large quantities, and made by Coors, Miller, or Anheuser-Busch (known as “the Big 3”). These three brewers sell the vast majority of beer in the US and their brands include: Coors and Coors Light, Budweiser and Bud Light, Busch, Natural Ice, Michelob, Miller High Life, Miller Lite, etc. Beyond those, these brewers also still manufacture a number of what would be called “nostalgia brands” like Hamm’s, Pabst Blue Ribbon, Rainier, etc.

A Comment Worthy Of A Post 6-29-18
I can't dare communicate with you via email or identified comments lest my employment with the City of Salisbury be terminated by the quasi-socialist and controlling government of our town. The Daily Times has repeatedly shown it's true colors as a vehicle for the young socialist movement overtaking our community. They have been provided with important information about the present administration and they have declined to publish it for fear of being ostracized by the city administration. Are we living in Russia or Salisbury? So let's address just a few of the issues that you won't hear in the disappointingly biased local media:
- Why is the police department significantly understaffed but has no one hired to attend the next police academy? Has Barbara Duncan and the political elite created a workplace where no one wants to go?
- The Recruitment officer at SPD has always been a lieutenant or sergeant but for the past two years has been filled by a corporal; yet, he has the same job description as his higher paid peers. Is that lawful or fair to pay someone a significantly lesser salary for doing the same duties? Is this part of the recruitment problem?
- There was an internal SPD employee survey done some time ago and the results were damning. There was essentially a vote of no confidence by SPD employees and yet, Mayor Day has chosen to continue with her incompetent "leadership". The Administration promised to release the comments of that survey to all SPD employees, but after realizing the unequivocal negativity, has refused to publish them. That's lying to your people; but it goes untouched.
- The Salisbury Fire Department is paid to eat and sleep. The city also pays a substantial amount for paid firefighters to be enrolled in the Law Enforcement Officers Pension System despite the fact that they have no authority to enforce the laws at hand.
- There is a female employee who has worked at SPD for 44 years, starting as a secretary but presently doing accounts payable, human resources and other important functions. She makes less than $40k per year, less than $1k per year of her service.
Maxine Waters: People Are 'Going to Harass' Trump Administration Officials at Restaurants, Stores, and Gas Stations
Saturday on MSNBC, Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) suggested people harassing, and protesting members of the administration of President Donald Trump at stores, restaurants, and gas stations was the new reality for the United States of America.
Waters was referencing White House press secretary Sarah Sanders being asked to leave a Red Hen restaurant in Virginia this weekend.
Waters said, “I have no sympathy for these people that are in this administration who know it’s wrong for what they’re doing on so many fronts. They tend to not want to confront this president or even leave, but they know what they’re doing is wrong. I want to tell you, these members of his cabinet who remain and try to defend him, they won’t be able to go to a restaurant, they won’t be able to stop at a gas station, they’re not going to be able to shop at a department store. The people are going to turn on them. They’re going to protest. They’re absolutely going to harass them until they decide that they’re going to tell the president, ‘No, I can’t hang with you.’ This is wrong. This is unconscionable. We can’t keep doing this to children.”

Congressman: U.S. is Heading Towards a Second Civil War
Polarized political environment increases threat of violence
Republican Congressman Steve King warns that America is heading towards a second civil war as a result of the increasingly polarized political environment gripping the country.
“America is heading in the direction of another Harpers Ferry. After that comes Ft. Sumter,” tweeted King, with a link to an article about how “Occupy” protesters shut down an ICE office in Portland, Oregon.
Harpers Ferry is a reference to the Battle of Harpers Ferry, when Gen. Robert E. Lee’s Confederate army invaded Maryland in September 1862 and defeated Union forces. Ft. Sumter refers to the second battle at that location during the Civil War when Union forces attacked Confederate forces.

LINE CROSSED: Tom Arnold Vows He’s Going To Stalk And Harass Barron At School
It has been surreal watching so many unhinged liberals start taking disgusting shots at Trump’s family. You can at least make the argument that his adult kids are fair game but the shots we have seen at young Barron Trump, Melania, and others have just been despicable.
When did this become OK?
Trump’s election automatically meant that children could be treated like trash now?

Rep. Barbara Lee accuses Trump administration of 'criminalizing' illegal immigrants
Rep. Barbara Lee, California Democrat, accused the Trump administration Sunday of “criminalizing” illegal immigrants.
Ms. Lee, who joined a congressional delegation that visited intake and detention facilities Saturday near the border in Texas, described the conditions as “tragic.”
“I mean, these people are being criminalized,” said Ms. Lee on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
David Urban, a former senior advisor the 2016 Trump campaign, countered that the adults have been jailed because they violated U.S. law.
“To address the point that the congresswoman raises: They’re in jail because they’re criminals,” said Mr. Urban. “They broke the law by crossing the border illegally.”
He added, “That’s why they’re in jail. You come to a facility, you come to one of the ports of entry, you apply for asylum, you do things right, okay, you’re not going to break the law. You cross the border illegally, you’re going to be in jail.”

A Viewer Writes: ECI Question
I spoke to a friend of mine who told me that ECI has been on lock-down since Thursday June 22nd, 2018. This person was not allowed to go visit her spouse this past weekend.
Apparently, they are still currently on 'lock-down' after she called in yesterday. They will also remain on lock-down and no one will be permitted visitation this coming weekend as well.
She has no way of communicating with her spouse or checking on his status. Phone calls are not permitted either. No explanation was given or will be given by ECI. This seems a bit shady.
Just curious if you could find out what is really going on. From what I understand, 'lock-down' means no showers, no mail, no calls, nothing. Not sure why. Thus is really stressing her out as well as his family members.

Illegal Aliens: The New Black Vote for Democrats
As an African-American, I cannot remember a better time in history to live in the United States; and thanks to the policies of President Trump, many other Blacks are starting to feel the same way. The 60-year gig is up for the power-hungry Democratic Party that has been running a massive scam on Black people since the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King. Thank God -- Black people are finally starting to wake up and unplug themselves from the Liberal Matrix that has ruled their reality for over a half a century.
First it was the hilariously viral YouTube sensations “Diamond & Silk” supporting Trump during his 2016 Presidential campaign.
Then, it was Kanye West shocking the world with his vehement support of President Trump on TMZ Live, touting all the wonderful things that Trump has done for the Black community. Remember, this is the same guy who said back in 2005 during the Hurricane Katrina catastrophe that President Bush “doesn’t care about Black people.” He has now woken up to the Democrat scam and is making an effort to wake his fellow Blacks up to it.
