Should Zoning Ordinances Be Used to Regulate the Number Of Charter Schools in a City?

By Friends of Cushingberry


The growth of charter schools have created a wild wild west for venture capitalists and financial managers who manage them at the expense of the community. The result of the grand experiment of alternative education with public funds is neighborhood blight and marginal educational results.



Case in point is the Benton Harbor School District which was presented with a form letter from the Michigan Department of Treasury to cease and desist being a high school or, the school district will be dissolved. In Benton Harbor and most cities in Michigan, there are more charter schools than kids in a neighborhood. Schools of choice allows the Department of Treasury to move the children to different school districts in Michigan. It allows wealthier districts to select the athletes and top students from other districts and leave the others to rot. What you end up with is a lot of empty buildings and money wasted with the same educational results. 

Gov. Gretchen Whitmer
State of Michigan

As of June 4th, Gov. Whitmer ordered that the high school and district remain intact.

The use of zoning laws to limit the number of schools that use public funds in a city would allow for better management of educational resources and, assist in bringing accountability to education.  The successful use of State zoning laws allowed cities like Detroit to limit the number of Marijuana provisioning centers in the city.  If you feel like a law like this would help contact State Senator Adam Holler or any member of the legislature to express your concerns. Especially State Rep Isaac Robertson (D-Detroit) who loves to hear from his constituents.

The damage of emergency management by State appointed to public schools can be reversed one step at a time through zoning.  Our children are worth more than $7500 a piece or $8500 if your child is eligible for special education. 

Laws can be changed by changing your elected officials. Some cities in Michigan are having elections in August and November of 2019.  New and progressive candidates like Scott Hughes who is running for City Council Ward 1 in Lansing Michigan is a person who will make that change. 

Ask those questions of the candidates for office and make sure to show up and vote in person or by absentee/early ballot.

Why You Need To Show Up and Vote in November 2018 - Stopping Lame Duck Voter Fraud In Advance

by Richard C. Clement  - Policy Analyst C-Systems Tech Group and 
Co host on Break It Down With Cush on www.gospel1440.com Saturdays from 12pm to 12:45pm

If elected Bill Schuette and the current Supreme Court have a plan to change the results of the Voters after the November 6^th election.  In the December 2018 lame duck session, the Michigan legislature led by Senator Rick Jones(R) will impose laws that will reverse the results of the votes on all proposals and issue blanket pardons for everyone involved into the Flint Water scandal.

If you needed a reason to vote for change in the legal system a vote for Samuel Bagenstos and Megan Kathleen Cavanaugh in the Michigan Supreme Court will effectively stop them in advance.

On his first day at work Bill Schuette tried and failed to remove 54A District Court Judge Hugh Barrington Clarke from office after being appointed by Gov. Jennifer Granholm to an open Judgeship. All other governmental appointments are just a signature and a rubber stamp process honored by everyone.  Schuette took legal measures to remove Judge Clarke to the Ingham County Circuity Court, the Court of Appeals and, the Michigan Supreme Court where all of them ruled in Judge Clarke’s favor.  In their written decision, the justices all stated that the charges brought by the Attorney General were frivolous and a waste of money.

In 2011 Schuette used the vast resources of the Attorney General’s office by to charge a Lansing Michigan resident Shekina Pena for Voter fraud. Ms. Pena owned a marijuana business on Michigan Avenue and presented customers with a slate of candidates for Lansing City Council. A  candidate who was not on the list called Senator Rick Jones who called Bill Schuette to prosecute her.  The case was presented to a Jury of her peers and they found Ms. Pena innocent of all charges.

Bill Schuette help direct the voter fraud effort to keep the Emergency Managers in place by going to the supreme court winning a legal to insert the manager law as a budget item preventing change through the ballot process. This method of Voter Fraud by legislative means was approved by the current Justices of the Supreme Court in direct contrast to the right to have your vote counted. In 2011 Gov Snyder went to the Supreme Court to impose a tax on retirees pensions to finance projects like the Karagondi/Flint debacle, salaries and, expenses for State appointed employees. Current and Retired first responders and civil service employees financed this with lower health care costs and reduction in services.

All the public servants needed was an Attorney General and Supreme Court Judges that would have taken the employees’ side by defending the state constitution regarding pensions and the will of the people by their vote.  Instead a perfect storm of one party rule along with concurring Supreme Court justices allowed the Michigan legislature to pull off the biggest Ponzi scheme ever inflicted upon public employees.

After spending millions of taxpayer dollars fighting attorneys like Dana Nessel the relentless attacks on Marijuana was so deplorable, petitions to recall him from office for insubordination to patients and falsification of documents in the Flint Water scandal, were approved by the Midland County Election Commission.

To correct these problems a vote for Gretchen Whitmer will unleash hidden figures that will bring transparency and efficiency to State Government. Having a Microsoft Man as a Lt. Governor in Garlin Gilcrest the following changes will happen.

• The emergency manager will be removed as a line item veto
• The courts will have pro people justices, 
• NO marijuana business in Michigan would have to close down because of the reefer madness mentality of an appointed Sgt. Don Bailey and, 
• Information transparency will be reformed with the honorable use of technology for the people instead of against them.

Therefore from now until November 6^th 2018 at 8:00pm you must show up and vote at your City Clerks office or in person at your polling place. Our future is in the balance!

Break It Down With Cush on WMKM 1440AM Saturdays from Noon until 12:45PM

Breaking News!!!!!

Tune in every Saturday at noon, and listen to George Cushingberry Jr. discuss issues in politics, religion, and community uplift.  

Starting with 10 minutes of spiritual reflection, the next 35 minutes are spent discussing topics covering politics, education, criminal expungements and, community uplift efforts. 

During the week of October we will be participating in voting instructions on the November ballot. 

So what that the check box for straight ticket voting was removed!

To correct the problem start from the back of the ballot first because, in order to succeed, you must take the time to read the ballot.  

Starting from the back of the ballot first, you will vote for all of the proposals, judges, school board members, and a continuation millage for the survival of Wayne County Community College. Then vote for everybody with a Democrat by their name.

This election is so crucial to the future of Michigan. The job of an Attorney General was to protect retiree pensions from being used to build a failed pipeline and to cover up inequities in State Government.

Will the current party in charge (Schuette and Snyder) break the union on I-75 and I-696 with non-union workers?  Will the current court approve the move? Vote for Judges who will work for your best interests.  Vote yes on all proposals 1, 2, and 3!

By showing up and voting, it's to remember in November, the Lame Duck in December.

We are also on live on our Facebook page Cush Corner (Click the Link To Watch) 

Congratulations to Adam Hollier and Kicking Some Schuette Booty in November

By Richard Clement - The Committee To Elect George Cushingberry Jr.

After all is said and done, we want to thank everyone who voted for George Cushingberry Jr, in the Democratic race for Senate in District 2.  Although the result we wanted did not come out in our favor, it will be up to George Cushingberry Jr to determine the next move in politics. 

We also want to congratulate Adam Hollier on his victory and we hope the young man does well.  We wish him success in lowering insurance rates, reinvesting into Detroit City Airport, and stopping the attacks on the Detroit Public Schools.  This includes fixing the damn roads and legalizing marijuana.

When you come in 7^th place, if anybody showed up that supported marijuana in this August election did not vote for us. That was a loud and clear message to the campaign. We are glad that our program to turn up the turnout was a success. More people than ever came out to vote in the August primary in a long time and that is a great thing. This election cycle shows that organization beats money sometimes.  This election was a well organized a** whupping of poli-tricks and mudslinging. 

The result of all the tactics used such as a well-timed filing of a lawsuit was a dismissal by a Federal Judge of all sexual harassment charges against the City of Detroit days before the election. After further review of all the evidence presented by both sides, the City of Detroit was protected from a frivolous lawsuit. The facts reveal that after being terminated in January of 2017 for cause, the suit was filed in 2018 with the full intent of thwarting George Cushingberry’s campaign to the Michigan Senate. The mutually assured destruction game plan was a success because both George Cushingberry and accuser Cleo Wiley lost.

Mission accomplished. 

Zero Sum Game

Make sure you show up to vote in the November General Election starting September 25^th, until Tuesday November 6^th, 7:59pm.  A vote for Gretchen Whitmer is a vote against racial profiling and a rejection of Bill Schuette’s divide and conquer politics. All white females are not the same and Gretchen Whitmer is not Jennifer Granholm!  We need to build more bridges of unity instead of walls of separation.

Elect Dana Nessel - Attorney General 

Transparency in State Government is non-existent and, a massive open government task force must be assembled to right the wrongs of the past. Electing Dana Nessel as the next  Attorney General will give her the opportunity to investigate the insurance industry and, the bankruptcy filings for financial fraud.

I am glad that this is over with and will take some time (not much) to figure out the next moves. At this time options are being considered for the future by George Cushingberry Jr in politics and business.

Thank you for your support.

Sincerely, Richard C. Clement – The Committee to Elect George Cushingberry Jr.

City of Detroit Supports George Cushingberry Jr! He is Going On Offense With Endorsements!

By The Committee to Elect George Cushingberry Jr.

#WeToo are Voting For George Cushingberry Jr.

We support the Detroit City Airport Historical District Plan..  #FreeKDET

It is with great pleasure to report that the City of Detroit is standing behind former Detroit City Councilmember President Pro Tem George Cushingberry Jr. He will not need to hire a private lawyer to defend himself against frivolous charges. After further review of all evidence, Corporation Council Lawrence Garcia filed a response brief with the Court in late July, dismissing the claims of the accuser Cleo Wiley Hale as an abuse of the sexual harassment #MeToo movement. 

Endorsed and supported by the Cannabis Community  #VoteForCush

Strong evidence shows that she maliciously worked to sabotage the re-election campaign of George Cushingberry on behalf of other candidates and, is actively doing it again. She was responsible for the election of Virgil Smith,Roy McCalister and is currently working on the behalf of Adam Hollier. All for personal gain off the backs of Detroit taxpayers, former spouses and, others that are closely involved with her.

Adam and Scott are totally against pot!
Especially in Highland Park and Hamtramck
 Vote for George Cushingberry Tuesday Aug 7th and November 6th.

We are fully expecting representatives from the female Sexual Harassment Golddiggers Union sponsored by "Progressives" PAC money to step up and attack our city in the next few hours in the information warfare world.  Just don't let them date any of your brothers, uncles, or any other male in your family. Just let Uncle Pookie,  Cousin Mike, your son or, brother come home all dinged up behind some drama, then it is a different ballgame.

The best defense of the people's money is to go on offense and cast your vote for George Cushingberry as your next State Senator.  It is your job to fight back in the information war by showing up and voting for candidates who have the best interests of the people at heart.

We endorse the use of green energy like Hemp to combat climate change

Holistic Medicine Dr. Margret Betts is Pushing for Cushingberry

Just like he did before, during, and after any crisis George Cushingberry Jr will guide us through the storms of controversy.  Red lines belong on a hockey rink instead of a city for insurance rates and, the way to change that is to:

1.   Elect George Cushingberry as State Senator

2.   Elect Dana Nessel as your Attorney General

3.   Elect Gretchen Whitmer as your Governor

#MotownStrong

If you give George Cushingberry the opportunity to work for you with your vote, the following things will happen the next day. He will introduce legislation to:

1.  Restore educational integrity by promoting literacy, virtual education with strict oversight

2.  Authorize the Attorney General to investigate the insurance industry for their damage to our economy with outrageous insurance rates. Statewide flat rate reform NOW!!!!!

3.  Restore losses to retirees by removing the pension tax, and use collective bargaining to allow unions to cover Medical Marijuana as a treatment to lower health care costs.

4.  Declare the Detroit City Airport as a Historical District and re-investment into airport upgrades with increased landing fees, new runways and a drag strip for the automobile buffs.

5.  Prosecution of all responsible for the Flint Water massacre to save a few bucks on the backs of the citizens of Flint MI.

George Cushingberry Jr, has clear proposals to Improve Michigan. 

On Tuesday August 7th, Elect George Cushingberry Jr  the man for you in District 2.

Thank you...
