Dec. 17, 2014 – Daily Brief

By Josh Premako

  • It Doesn't Look Good: The final audit report has been released for Albert Einstein Academy, and while it may not include red flags pointing to outright fraud, it does document a lot of disconcerting financial mismanagement. KHTS
  • Bill Parked Until Next Year: With the Senate having adjourned for the year, Buck's Cemex bill is effectively dead until 2015. And so continues the SCV's saga of trying to resolve the Cemex issue once and for all. The Signal
  • A Batty Kind of Year: Rabid bats continue to turn up in L.A. County, including the SCV, which is unusual for the cooler months, according to a public health official. The Signal
  • McKeon Staff on the Move: Described as one of the "most experienced and sought after legislative directors in the House," Chris Perry will be leaving outgoing Congressman "Buck" McKeon's office to work for New York state Rep.-elect Elise Stefanik, who will also be serving on the House Armed Services Committee. The Citizen
  • Cops on Camera: The LAPD is set to equip 7,000 officers with body cameras, a notable move and one that hopefully the Sheriff's Department will make. Of course, officers will actually have to turn the cameras on when they arrest or detain someone. And certainly there's no way some officers will "forget" or "have no time" to turn on a camera in the heat of the moment. Daily News
  • You Can't Escape Mom: In what is perhaps one of the best moments in the history of C-SPAN, a mother calls in to scold her arguing, politician sons. Talking Points Memo

    Seems Buck could have worked a little faster on this. I guess our "squeek" on the wheel wasn't as loud as all those rich lobbyists that he gave such close attention.

    Still Buck's fault? You do know that it's a democrat blocking the bill. Claiming moral high ground again, is what it sounds like.

    How many years did Buck have to get this done? And when he drops a last-second attempt that predictably gets challenged, you want to blame "Democrats" for his failure? Really?

    Well, who would you blame if not the person blocking the bill? Anyone else beside this democrat blocking it? Maybe Buck did wait a while, but the fact is , it's a democrat who is now blocking it....not too hard to understand. And what makes it 'predictably' challenged? You predicted some democrat would claim the 'moral high ground' and block it?

    "Maybe Buck did wait a while" You, sir, are a master of understatement!
