the song remains the same in honey brook and dangerously obsessive much?

Dude, you lost in NOVEMBER, 2025 so what are you running for today? And what’s with the regurgitation of lawn chair spectaculars? This is very odd obsessive behavior is it not?

Yes, back to Honey Brook Township. Back to the land of the thug politics cabal getting more desperate by the day. So desperate that one of them did this:

Good Afternoon,

This e-mail is intended for DC Mike Hepner.  I am writing to you as a member of the Honey Brook community.  I am not a Lion, but have a couple of friends who are and there is a continued level of online harassment/trademark infringement by an online blogger who is friends with someone who quit the Lions in Honey Brook a couple years ago.

This person has since been elected as a Honey Brook Township Supervisor and her friend, the blogger, continuously creates disgusting online images (including trademarked images) and “tags” the local Lions club, both during the election last year and as we speak.

I felt this needed attention from more than just the local club, on a district level.  Although there is freedom of speech, I have attached a photo posted yesterday that shows obvious trademark infringement.

I am available for any questions you may have and hope you can obtain information to take this harassment down from social media.

Thanks,

Steven Jones

Can we get real? And before that, note although I was under no obligation to redact his information (address, phone, email) it was done anyway, so he cannot say he was doxxed (another issue and definition they struggle with.)

This has nothing as in ZERO to do with the Lion’s Club in Honey Brook and he isn’t a Lion’s Club member, yet he feels compelled to to write to the Lion’s Club to tattle? Like he is defending their honor from a made up situation in his head? Is it not more probable that they wish to use this group to their own twisted gain? They always try to drag all of these people into their games, don’t they? I mean come on, they even try to do this nonsense with the Chester County Republican Party do they not? Now it’s the Lion’s Club, last fall it was the Honey Brook Community Library, the fire company, Chester County Republicans, a minority County Commissioner, and I think even a food pantry? Why do they constantly deflect from the fact that these twisted up inside people are the actual problems, not everyone else? I mean shouldn’t they have simply more respect for these organizations and people instead of trying to drag them into their twisted sandbox of immaturity?

They have also not only tried to disparage and harass Valarie Shultz and others, but me, and literally anyone who stands up to them. Do they think people don’t know? Do they think people don’t know their constant tattletale harangue tour? It’s what they do isn’t it? Bullying and intimidation?

(That includes mailing things to me when I did not provide them with an address during the election. That was done merely to try to intimidate me, to try to send a message they could get to me but did they? It was Priority Mail, so there is tracking, and to be honest, when you receive things like that, you can go to the US Postal Inspectors who do take thing like that seriously, yes?)

All of these people in his circle have made themselves public figures vis à vis their social media presence which includes public posts. You know, that pesky little globe?

These people are also public figures as elected officials and/or politicians and appointed officials, which makes them fair game. They have been mocked in response to their public behavior, correct?

Anything ever obtained about them that they don’t like on social media has been in the public purview. They posted it publicly and people picked it up.

They also are recorded at public meetings that anyone in the world can see. That includes Mr. Jones’ outbursts at public meetings. One example below.

Here’s a snippet from his handler:

What is his end game here? He puts things out publicly not just on Facebook, but now on YouTube. If his things weren’t public, no one would see them, and anyone can comment on things that are public.

Then also recently another stunning email sent from an outgoing elected Republican committeewoman, Deb Elmer. I found out courtesy of this:

So yesss…the email was sent out while disclosing the information on hundreds of residents. That is akin to a data breach. Oh and here is the email:

Dear Fellow Honey Brook Township Resident,

As a resident of Honey Brook Township and a Republican Committee member in HBT2, Precinct 301, I am writing to strongly support John Burdy and Gary R. McEwen candidacy for Precinct 300 committee member in the May 19, 2026 primary election.

I have known both men for many years and have closely followed their service on the Twin Valley School Board. They have consistently demonstrated strong leadership, sound judgment, and a clear commitment to serving our community with integrity.

Just as important as supporting strong candidates is being honest about the facts and ensuring accountability within our own process. My concern is maintaining fair and consistent standards within our party’s expectations.

Under our local area bylaws, committee members pledge to support only the endorsed republican candidate in all public spheres and limit their political activity to advancing the election of the endorsed candidate.

Based on firsthand involvement in HBT1, Precinct 300, concerns arose regarding adherence to conduct standards following the primary certification. During this period, Scott Stilson supported Valerie Shultz while still active, as a committee member, his exact resignation date is unclear. Lorraine Louie, who remains a committee member, also openly supported Shultz, who appeared on the general election ballot as a Democrat despite being registered as a Republican. This conduct raises questions regarding compliance with applicable party bylaws and standards.

Support included, among other actions, appearing at her Harmony Days table, posting on Facebook, and coordinating a debate. A standard process for a debate or meet-and-greet is to coordinate with the endorsed Republican candidate to ensure fair representation. Public Facebook posts suggest this standard was not followed.

Following formal complaints, supported by documentation I helped provide, party leadership ultimately directed Scott Stilson to step down. He did temporarily.

John Burdy and Gary R. McEwen have demonstrated that they respect both the role and responsibility of serving this community. I strongly encourage voters to consider their proven leadership and commitment when making their decision.

Sincerely,

Debbie Elmer

Gosh she colors the truth so well, yes? (Also spell check is everything.)

Here is a little more from Acid Aunty:

So then there is another bit of amusement. They are running Supervisor Sal’s son for Republican committeeman. They list him as a college student and yet he is on the school board. As is the other guy they are running for Republican committeeman (https://www.tvsd.org/page/school-board). It’s just so obvious what they are doing – shore it all up and try to keep control because they don’t like chinks in the walls of Tammany Hall in the corn field do they? And the current Twin Valley School School Board President? How long has he been on the school board? Since around 2001 right? Makes an interesting case for term limits in a very problematic school district that straddles two counties, yes? And the chair of the school board who is a committeeman is also on the Honey Brook Township Planning Commission?

It’s just so cozy in Honey Brook Township, yes?

So back to the Supervisor’s son being put up for committeeman ok? Why is that? I think that it is about control of the township by the cabal and I can have that opinion. I also have the opinion it is to groom him to be a supervisor candidate since the last choice, Steve Jones, didn’t work out so well, yes? But if they are running one supervisor’s son (Nick son of Sally DeeGee) are they also running his close personal sock puppet Jack Wilson?

And when you are talking about cozy in Honey Brook politics, one also must consider John Burdy listed in that letter as running for committeeman and why? Well his wifey is the other supervisor, Laura Burdy. You can see her sour puss on meetings, can’t you? And Burdy’s lineage is interesting because his late father who passed in 2007 was a secretary and administrator of neighboring Caernarvon Township in Berks County. Think Morgantown. Now someone will scream from the rafters because I mentioned that, but it’s simply part of the local political history, right? Caernarvon Township and Honey Brook Township have I always thought a close-ish relationship here and there over the years and share a school district, right?

This township is politically messy. It’s why I started writing about it. That and they were targeting Valerie Shultz, who is an actual friend of mine, hoping she would go away and not run for supervisor. Well she made it, which is a threat and the meetings have all been some degree of a circus as a result. And interestingly enough the most recent development is the township manager Warren Obenski is leaving so I guess he won’t be doing Sally DeeGee’s requested police and corruption taskforce thingys? There were supposed to be two of this – they came up at the February 11 meeting and they keep trying to pin this on Valerie Shultz who abstained as she felt it was not a kosher vote, correct? Wonder where he is going? His wife is the chair of the Uwchlan Supervisors isn’t she?

And hey whatever happened to that poor woman who fell and got banged up at the Honey Brook Township building on election night 2025 when a certain candidate’s signage seemed to be blocking the light? Why don’t they talk about that?

But back to the odd politician behavior, ok? So one of the most dangerous kinds of politicians are the ones who didn’t get elected, correct? He bubbaficates regularly and there are outbursts at meetings and wow the behavior is concerning isn’t t? His constant public posts still about how Valerie Shultz is a Democrat (she isn’t, we all know this except for the thug politics cabal in Honey Brook Township), etc. Or attempts to get at me or talk smack ablout me…and then he gets all upset if his targets respond with humor, facts and political lampoons? And then he revs up his stuff on his candidate page now renamed with the same types of posts as before? His posts are PUBLIC so no one is breaking any rules sharing screenshots:

Harassed? Umm no, we aren’t the ones doing the harassing, but we have responded to the word salads on occasion.

So what is his obsessive end game here? He puts things out publicly not just on Facebook, but now on YouTube. If his things weren’t public, no one would see them, and anyone can comment on things that are public, so what is the dealio?

It’s not a pattern of continued anything, and in my opinion the fact is that this all started this up again after Valarie was sworn in and that exhibits dangerously obsessive behavior. And as Valarie can point out this wasn’t just directed towards her when he started up again but me, and others. See this:

When he posts publicly like he does and they do, it’s fair game. He doesn’t seem to understand that whole concept of the little globe in the post, none of them do.

It’s a case of perpetual sour grapes. Valerie Schultz is a Republican who beat him and she was written in on the Democrat ballot, but that will never make her a Democrat or me the Tooth Fairy, yes? I seem to recall Jones got a small number of write ins on the Democrat ballot as well, but not enough to beat her to be truly cross filed, correct?

This is all about him and them. Not the Honey Brook Library, food banks, first responders, fire companies, or the Lion’s Club. Every time they don’t like what someone says, they try to deflect to something that isn’t actually reality and why is that? If they deflect, they distract, kind of like not talking about Jeffrey Epstein in Washington, yes?

This is why people want different and better for Honey Brook Township and even that school district out there. The obsessive hoodie and his handler and the rest of them would have you think it’s all unicorns farting rainbows and fuzzy bunnies. It’s not. It’s a beautiful place that people are trying to make better. And that includes breaking the grip of politics as usual. They don’t get that his and others’ odd and often angry behavior flies directly in the face of the “nothing to see here” they so desperately want.

My opinions are cheerfully supplied by my First Amendment Rights.

good afternoon chester county!

Hello Chester County! Welcome to the nastiest race in Chester County! The Honey Brook Thug Politics Cabal is in a FULL ON swivet because people like Valerie Shultz and they want better in local government than those people.

Sadly, every day these pathetic humans are harassing people including the executive branch of the Chesco GOP in West Chester, aren’t they?

I mean, I guess this is a step up and intimidation and harassment tactics from some rando truck following people around in Honey Brook Township on occasion, including somebody’s kids right? But how you know it’s Honeybrook there’s nothing to see here, right?

What’s next? Mythical complaints to voter services about campaign signs without a disclaimer or whatever? Note to cabal: buy better readers at The WalMart because they are there, however where bubba was a hoodie is concerned what is it with him referencing a benefactor on his signs yet say something like paid for by the candidate?

And is he taking down his own signs to say they are being stolen? Or is he placing them on private property where he doesn’t have explicit permission to post his lame signs?

Honey Brook, stop the badness and the madness with these people and #vote4val

My disclaimer: I’m exercising my first amendment rights. I am not part of any campaign. I do not donate financially to political campaigns and never have. I believe in paying it forward and that is what I am doing here.

Honey Brook deserves better than the thug politics cabal which also extends to the Twin Valley School Board. Vote for change; break the cabal with a #vote4val

while chester county was sleeping, the chester county constable applied to help ice out in honey brook? why?

Posted on by

I will open this post with saying if a randomly promoted post on Instagram had not found its way into my Instagram feed, I wouldn’t have gone down this wild rabbit hole.

I generally speaking, try to avoid ICE stories because as a person descended from those who immigrated here a few generations back, I find it like a parallel universe because we are a nation founded by immigrants at a time that if you counted the Native Americans as the original inhabitants, well who actually was legal vs. illegal back then? And then of course there are the history lessons of World War II?

But I suppose I digress…

This is truly seeming like fifty shades more of Honey Brook Township crazy is it not if all true?

Why is the Pennsylvania State Constable of Chester County applying for an ICE 287(g) Agreement for Honey Brook Township Precinct 1?

So also very interesting? The Republican committee people for this precinct had zero clue this was happening! If they didn’t sign up for it then why is it in Precinct 1 ? Why not all of Honey Brook Township? Why this sole precinct? Is it because it is Valerie Shultz’s home precinct where she was a committee person?

This sure seems like more Cornfield Tammy Hall doesn’t it? Thug politics at work? I mean Chester County is a big county, so if this guy is the one constable for our entire county, why apply for it out there?

And what does Honey Brook Township get out of of it? Federal funds? If so, how would said funds get applied and for what purpose?

And is it really just a wild conspiracy theory to wonder about connections?

Seriously, this is just kind of insane isn’t it? I mean, is this all happening because they current power brokers are so incredibly threatened by the idea of a woman who is a Republican that Democrats thought enough of to put on the Democrat ballot for the fall as a registered Republican so upsetting their comfortable status quo that this is happening in that particular precinct?

Maybe HONEY BROOK TOWNSHIP has some explaining to do? See screenshots, links and a spread sheet from ICE governmental website.

And more importantly, I simply don’t understand how a municipality without a police force can help ICE arrest immigrants, anyway? And everything says Honey Brook Township Precinct 1, it doesn’t say Honey Brook Borough.

Also are there that many illegal immigrants in Honey Brook? So (again) does this mean if he gets approved for this that Honey Brook Township itself gets Federal funds to round up illegal aliens? What are they going to use the money for?

https://www.wesa.fm/courts-justice/2025-07-08/pennsylvania-police-law-enforcement-collaborating-with-ice

Don’t residents deserve answers? In Honey Brook and throughout the county?

Also, I looked on the already approved list and don’t see any other Chester County municipalities? So for like the umpteenth time, why choose Honey Brook Township? Wouldn’t you see logically that if this were to happen and be applied for it would be other municipalities in Chester County?

Now I have also been told that this guy is the Constable for Honey Brook Borough which only has one voting precinct (295), right? So why mention it other than to bait the Valerie Shultz campaign and to attempt to sow division and chaos in Honey Brook Township? And if he is the Constable for Honey Brook Borough is he stepping on the toes of a local police force?

Is this application in fact for Honey Brook Borough and not Honey Brook Township?

Constables are elected. Pay for all of their own equipment and must be self-insured so seriously will this guy’s insurer cover this? Sounds like an underwriting nightmare doesn’t it?

I don’t understand any of this. So many questions.

Signing off.

truth in advertising honey brook style: politician steve jones mails out alternative reality propaganda…

Posted on by

I would ask if this mailer was completely targeting Democrats in Honey Brook except for one thing, the fabrication of facts on the mailer postcard. The postcard claims she resigned as a committee person to “seek” the Democrat vote and that is a lie.

Much to Valerie Schultz’s surprise and delight, Democrats in Honey Brook thought enough of her to write her in, so when the primary was decided in order to comply with the rules as a committee person, she resigned to stay the written in REPUBLICAN candidate on the Democrat side of the ticket.

His big gotcha I am sure directed completely and utterly at Democrats with this post card is Valerie holding up a Trump sign. Among other things that is a dated photograph off of Facebook, and I will note that this politician did not have a disclaimer on there as to where he got that photo and isn’t that a no no?

And what does it mean when he points out she’s a lifelong Republican? She’s not a Democrat because she’s a registered Republican on the Democrat ticket, she’s still a Republican. Just how stupid does he think everyone in Honey Brook is?

No one is going to deny that the man has volunteered as a first responder. My opinion, however, on some of his other volunteer things like the land, preservation committee, etc., was engineered for this political race because shall we say it’s all a little obvious? Also if you watch him at any of these meetings that are recorded he never really participates much does he? When it comes to participating in public at meetings, he is a bump on a proverbial log or a hoodie with the hood all tied up.

From a practical perspective, this postcard is complete amateur hour. It doesn’t hold your attention, and the guy couldn’t even spring for a better photo.

The narrative of this postcard is the basic regurgitated disjointed babble of this thug politics cabal, who ran him as a candidate. Because if you want to tell me he thought of this all by himself, I have a bridge you can buy in Brooklyn. If this was cud and a cow was chewing it, a cow would’ve choked by now.

But my purpose today and part is the point out what this guy is like on his personal social media. Before he started throwing stones and living in his glass house, the talking hoodie should’ve cleaned up his own socials now if posts disappear, you know what he’s doing.

Can we wonder aloud if he is a giant talking hoodie conspiracy theorist? Where did he stand on January 6, 2021 and if he’s so trying to cultivate the Democrat vote why does he seems to hate on them so much on social media? And is he actually one of those election deniers from when Biden was elected?

It doesn’t matter if you are a Republican or Democrat, his social media is not that folky person he wants you to believe he is, is it? At the end of the day in my opinion why Democrats who live in Honey Brook Township need to vote for Valerie Shultz is simple: if they ever want the hope of being able to run their own candidates for supervisor out there it starts with a different kind of Republican candidate.

It only takes one candidate in these municipalities to start to change the future. The talking hoodie is not that politician. But it’s not up to me, I am just expressing my opinion.

Please enjoy the following screenshots which were ALL public on Facebook as of yesterday.

do we need some facts about honey brook fiction?

Posted on by

People have asked why post about a little election in Honey Brook Township? Simple: what goes on out there is concerning.

No matter what your political persuasion residents in certain communities deserve more honest elections, and shall we say elections free of undue influence/interference? Aren’t we all past the election seasons of vote how we told you to? (And yes I really did hear someone say that years ago when walking an elderly woman into a polling place to vote in Ardmore years ago, and isn’t that nuts but everyone knows it happens right?)

Honey Brook has a political cabal and they have “turf” don’t they? And what is one of the biggest components of said turf? Isn’t it Tel Hai? Sort of Stepford meets Desperate Housewives? And the pecking order is someone there also controls the school board as well as the stupidvisors?

One of the first things of this election along with the constant parroting of saying Valerie Shultz is a Democrat because she is a Republican on the Democrat ballot was malarkey about trying to use a school for a polling place which is common practice. The talking hoodie is still beating that dead horse and does he even know it’s common practice to use schools for polling places AND most schools are closed on Election Day? Does he realize that it’s up to individual districts in PA and that school districts like Coatesville have already announced they are closing on Election Day?

How is voting in a closed school dangerous? The answer is it is not. It just doesn’t fit their contrived narrative.

Also not fitting a controlled contrived narrative? A very odd meet and greet right? Have you ever heard of a meet and greet where you were expected, no demanded to RSVP the same day the invitation edict was issued?

What even Chester County GOP candidates weren’t told is also interesting isn’t it? Isn’t this event happening to prop up the thug politics cabal’s candidate? He needs photo ops to increase his visibility and as cover for where he is shall we say lacking? This is not about county candidates at all is it?

And I wonder if these committee people and their handlers (because they are handled too right?) will recount their recent unsuccessful visit to the county GOP headquarters? Will they talk about why baseless accusations are called baseless accusations? Shall we guess, probably not? This event is a waste of time and gas for the county candidates but some are desperate enough that they will show up everywhere won’t they?

Oh poor talking hoodie doesn’t realize fact check is in fact either two words or a hyphenated fact-check situation? Depending on if it’s used as a noun or a verb? Is that too complicated a concept? Hey just fact-check me right?

And then there’s the handler of the hoodie. Just because he wants to play Tony Soprano running around with his little contribution checks doesn’t mean he owns a pork store does it?

This is all pretty simple out here when you break it down isn’t it power corrupt it’s time for change so every day there’s some new baseless, accusation or misrepresentation of facts isn’t there?

Like trying to say Valerie Shultz didn’t want to do her committee person job anymore and that’s why she resigned and that’s not true. Is it or factually accurate is it?

And can we talk how things get done out here? Is it a true and honest way or is it to keep haranguing people until you wear them down? And do these people understand the difference? Take another tired regurgitation and wow does he have acid reflux yet?

Apparently, someone has lost their drool cup again? And why is it they still don’t know how these open space referendums work and the subsequent taxes do they? Why is it this talking hoodie doesn’t understand the simple concept of these things have a sunset date and then they have to be reconsidered ? It’s not about cutting funding. It’s about doing things the right way. Just another giant fibber mcgee debunked. You are very welcome, Honey Brook.

And then below the next screenshot? I’ve been waiting for this all day. He doesn’t disappoint. Valerie Shultz did a lit drop overnight. It’s not about paying for stamps. It’s about making sure people get the literature. Sure, you can put stamps on them and buy a postal permit, but USPS is so bad these days and it’s Honey Brook Township so who knows if they would actually make it out of the back room of the post office right? And if you’re hand delivering them, you’re not supposed to put them in the mailbox because that breaks USPS rules, doesn’t it?

Mostly the big doofus is just probably annoyed because she beat him to the punch. but that’s what’s happens when you sit in the lawn chair on a random driveway with a drool cup, yes? And he just gave Valerie Shultz tons of free advertising because if he hadn’t said anything about the lit drop, it would’ve just been another day.

And one of the favorite terms, these people like to use is RINO even though most of the time they spell it RHINO right? They are totally derisive of most other Republican candidates end of the county except when they need them for photo for their candidate, right?

These people, if you say anything about the politics, they immediately try to parlay it into you’re speaking badly about the municipality in the area and that’s not it is it? It’s this thug politics cabal, who serve no one but themselves, isn’t it? I mean who else but desperate politicians trying to keep a hold on things would tell impressionable seniors that a candidate they didn’t choose, will raise their taxes in a retirement community that doesn’t pay those taxes?

It’s really not that difficult to see why people, including myself think that Honey Brook Township needs a political makeover.

It’s time to rotate the political crops, residents of Honey Brook Township. And a talking hoodie who beats his chest in frustration and fury and general lack of understanding on social media is not who you really want is it?

I mean, let’s get real, these people like to tell you how wonderful they are and what a good job they do but when you peel back the layers of that onion, what do you really get? Is it a soft rotten smelly center of a soft onion turning to rot? I think it is.

Be brave in November residents of Honey Brook Township. When you start to vote them out of office and different people in, you will notice a change in tone. And can we also hope that maybe those mysterious trucks that like to follow people around will take up delivering meals on wheels to seniors and more?

is freedom of speech subjective if you are a republican in pa and chester county or just in honey brook township?

Posted on by

So we all know it’s a hot race in Honey Brook because the thug politics cabal is terrified of a normal Republican or anyone NOT from their inner circle running against their chosen bobblehead. And yes, I can have that opinion. So yeah, hope y’all tuned in or listen later online or now online. https://953wche.com/

So I went to rewatch Valerie Shultz’s video. It gave up this message:

Naturally, I went nosing around because it was available over the weekend. So I don’t know if this is a tall tale but apparently the thug political cabal was so upset that they did their usual round of emails, phone calls, etc and so predictable right? Are they also still doing drive-bys like no one sees that truck or trucks? I guess politics is harassable in Honey Brook Township?

So is it true that the went to the PA State GOP and Chester County GOP put pressure on the individual who merely recorded it because that is part of what he does in Honey Brook for the residents NOT as a committeeperson? As in this wasn’t official anything, was it? It was shooting a video. So this begs the question of what did OTHER supervisors in Honey Brook Township know? Are current elected officials there trying to add the pressure of undue political pressure? Is that even ok?

In my humble opinion this but a pyrrhic victory. In case you are unfamiliar with the term a pyrrhic victory is defined as:

a triumph achieved at such a tremendous cost that it is tantamount to a defeat, leaving the victor in a worse state than they were before. 

And guess what? I have the verbiage of the empty hoodie/chair debate. Yes, yes I do. Here you go:

Debate dialogueDownload

And yes, yes I have the video. I took a screen grab of the publicly recorded empty chair debate. Also note this was advertised for weeks, so nothing was done leading up to this event to stop it. It’s not the first video you see next, it’s at the bottom.

Listen to this video at end of this post. There is nothing wrong with it, except that Valerie Shultz is a Republican running on Democrat ticket because Democrats in Honey Brook Township want representation. These individuals CHOSE to do this because as they noted in a public meeting (in above video), they did not feel they essentially had a snowball’s chance in hell of getting a Democrat elected which means they did their own self-chosen groundswell of support and wrote Valerie in. They chose to do this. See video grab above, for the Democrat who spoke up.

Now my opinion is the Republican Party of Chester County and PA made a critical error. Also my opinion is if the Democrats in Chester County had a collective brain, they would capitalize on this because is this not attempting to deprive someone of their First Amendment rights? Honey Brook Township is sunshine unfriendly in my opinion and they are scared of having, well, what we used to know as a normal Republican on the board and she is respected enough that Democrats wrote her in to get her on the ballot and what does that say?

The residents of Honey Brook do not have to settle for less. And no one decides whom to vote for except for the individual in the voting booth. If Honey Brook wants to start to improve, it starts here.

And I will note that NO one is saying Honey Brook Township is a horrible place (like the talking hoodie yes man bobble head always says), what IS being said that the politics are creating issues in a community as in the thug politics of those currently in office and how is that so difficult a concept to grasp? Honey Brook Township is not the thug politics cabal’s fiefdom or personal sandbox. What has happened with the empty chair debate video in my opinion is a CLEAR example of why residents need to NOT vote for the candidate that the current board wants, right? I mean do you want representative government or not? Or do you want a guy who runs his entire campaign off of Facebook, sort of at the recent supervisors meeting, or from a lawn chair in a random driveway?

Here is the video. Hope all watch and learn and hope regional media wakes up to what is going on. This is at the end of the day a glaring example on a more local level of what is wrong in politics today.

time to address the peanut gallery

Before I dive into politics to the west, that is very truly oddly Pennsyltucky at this point I will start with Chat GPT can design a better new logo than Cracker Barrel itself.

Of course I don’t understand what the hubbub nationally has been about this because it’s Cracker Barrel not some Michelin Guide starred restaurant. But hey they seem to use the same graphic designer as Chester County, right?

But I digress. And somehow, mentioning Cracker Barrel fits with the political nonsense out of Honey Brook.

The politician running against Valerie Shultz seems to talk talk talk on Facebook a lot (and nowhere else- doesn’t want to debate or even do meet and greets and why?)

This guy and his handler who is a current supervisor of Honey Brook Township started ramping up this campaign weeks ago. You know when no one is dishing the most local of politics and candidates because it’s literally like summer vacation?

So the primary season out there was nasty. These people who represent literally the existing political cabal and status quo did not want Valerie Shultz running. Heaven forbid a Republican that actually made sense ran for office, was always my thought. She’s not extreme, she’s even and measured whenever you speak with her whenever you hear her speak in public and she researches what she’s going to talk about so she doesn’t shoot from the hip or misinform.

She is also just a nice person who cares about her community. She volunteers quietly because it is right, not so she gets self stated accolades. Yes we have become friends because that’s just the way life is, you encounter someone that you respect and you think is kind of interesting. Oh and we started to get to know each other rather a good bit of time before she ever wanted to run for supervisor.

As this campaign season in Honey Brook Township ramps up, they literally are crazed and mostly inappropriate keyboard warriors. The new politician AKA talking hoodie, especially. He can’t stay off of his campaign Facebook page. And his behavior online seems to be deteriorating, which is never a good look for a politician whom you never hear from in public. Ad hominem attacks with nothing but rumors to back it up? Check, they have you covered!

And then there is the talking hoodie’s handler. He’s also interesting online. Women who disagree are a favorite target, but can it be said if you disagree with his version of reality in general male or female or house cat), which isn’t necessarily the truth you are bad, bad, bad?

Yep, the He Man Women Haters Club is now in session.

These adult men children want to screen shot my every thought, so I must be truly fabulous, yes?

WHY THANK YOU!

I can’t control their behavior and lack of couth, but I can and will take notes. So they want everyone who makes them uncomfortable feel bad about themselves? Stay in your lanes, buckaroos.

Good government is not about these guys. They have their own love language that is well, rather outdated. It’s a whole Tammany Hall in a Corn Field, and they should learn about what happened to Boss Tweed back in the day.

I like to clear up misperception. They like foggy with a side of thug. One of their favorite things is saying that Valerie Shultz is a Democrat and the latest is they seem to be inferring she was thrown out of the Republican party? Oh come on, that is hysterical, isn’t it? She is on the ballot for the fall because she got written in on the Democrat ballot BUT as a Republican.

A current sitting supervisor politician doesn’t get it does he? (See below ) I am not part of “Team Val” as he likes to phrase it, but I am proud to know Valerie Shultz for Honey Brook Township Supervisor personally and call her a friend.


Like all of these items it is an attempt to denigrate, intimidate, and bully falls flat, doesn’t it? He likes to attempt belittling me by calling me a babbling blogger, but all that tells me is himself is a little touchy about things, especially things he doesn’t want people looking into, right? It also tells me that he has a problem with women saying what he doesn’t want said, yes?


No part of Valerie‘s campaign is “self imploding”, but the cracks are showing on his bully politics side, aren’t they ?


I haven’t “ripped into” Tel Hai Retirement Community in the least, but I have pointed out how thug politics tries desperately to control the narrative being spewed at a senior citizen community vis-à-vis shall we say deliberately skewed misinformation , and is that a bad thing? That’s a lovely community and there are lots of nice people and they deserve better from local government. So let’s put that to rest (for at least five minutes because they just rotate and regurgitate the same old thing don’t they?)


The Honey Brook Facebook page is just a Facebook page and the admin got caught playing politics after she said there was to be no politics in her group. And that group is used to spread the disinformation that thug politics wants out there isn’t it?


I’ll notice he or his talking hoodie hasn’t said anything about Honey Brook Community Library yet, has he? Probably because the talking hoodie and he as his handler have made quite the hash up over there and that was exposed yesterday, wasn’t it? They should be apologizing to the library, or is that asking a lot from them? oh an is it true they now want a Republican only meet and greet? I man pass the drool cup, again, Valerie Shultz might be an inconvenient Republican as far as they think, but she is still a Republican, yes?


I have never denigrated the first responders out there or ripped into them in the least. I don’t care for the politician talking hoodie this politician is handling because it’s just a way to keep the thug politics cabal intact and that is at the expense of residents and taxpayers and even that candidate isn’t it? And one of the only comments I have made in the area of first responders is there is something to be said for local policing and that isn’t anything bad is it?
And when I refer to Pennsyltucky, I am referring to the thug politics he eschews, not mocking the community at large. There is a distinct difference which he knows.


Candidate Bobble Head Politician and the current Board of Supervisors want residents to be seen and not heard, and to never question anything. I will not apologize for saying that is wrong along with thinly veiled attempts at resident intimidation especially on social media and am I wrong? Forget that semi-rhetorical question you know it’s not wrong to question things that aren’t right, correct?


The only divisiveness that is happening in Honey Brook is caused by this man, his handler, and the thug politics cabal.


Of course he wants people to stick with the “status quo“, it means he’s never questioned, and a politician who isn’t willing to work with all people even involving being questioned about things is not one you really want in office is it?


And if anyone has “invited” the outside in for heightened scrutiny, it’s the current regime, and he acts like an absurd HOA president who wants to gate off the entire community.


The more he blathers the more people wonder what is being hidden from the residents, and it is that simple, correct ? He doesn’t like sunshine and transparency I guess? Remember how he was when he was running? Butter couldn’t melt in his mouth, right? Flash forward to him getting his skirts in a bunch because I stumbled across that old news report about puppy mills in that area and posted it. Why would he care unless he supports puppy mills? I have zero issue with responsible dog breeders. I do have an issue with puppy mills, as do most people with a heart and a brain. So it’s pretty funny. He says I’m against all dog breeders. Alrighty then. But the best is stumbling upon his election pledge so to speak. He’s really “leading by example, not by the tongue, making a difference by getting your hands, dirty not your keyboard” And remember his “community is about representation, caring, kindness and respect….” aaand puppy mills, thug politics, corn field Tammany Hall, denigrating women, and SO much more!!!


The handler politician’s blathering also can be potentially construed in the fact that he doesn’t really have faith in the politician he has chosen to run, yes?

Been saving this gem (below, next screenshot.) From the spring. The supervisors of Honey Brook Township using a community group as an official channel? They didn’t use official township channels, but posted here to try to skate around things, didn’t they? They can have their own opinions, BUT presenting things like it’s official township anything? Yeahhhh do they have a bridge they want to sell us? And next time this guy who so loves his community opens his mouth, remember this and wonder who is this guy, really?


Whatever. Just another day with thug politics. The elected one needs to remember his behavior might be it’s all Good to Be King, but he’s not. The other one? Well the saddest thing of all is he totally doesn’t get these people are literally using him, but he doesn’t get a lot of things, does he?

It’s time to end the Tammany Hall Corn Field and the thug politics cabal in Honey Brook Township. These gents are a little too obsessed with why people, not just me, are watching.

librarygate….in honey brook. is a 501(c)(3) playing politics, or bowing to them?

Posted on by

So recently, I expressed my thoughts on the Honey Brook Community Library suddenly deciding no candidate meet and greets would take place at their facility. To my understanding this is not a political party gathering, it’s a community meet and greet of all candidates of various offices and political parties for an upcoming election. What I was also told is the library lady told people on the phone that the library was uncomfortable given the political climate in Honey Brook Township. Yes I am paraphrasing, but anyway, here is what I said:

I think something has to be said about the situation involving the Honey Brook Library of it all and Valerie Shultz for Honey Brook Township Supervisor. The latest thing to fly around this bucolic municipality with the rotten underbelly, is that Val is a hater of libraries and they go further to intimate that she’s somehow “threatening” or “bullying” the library.

The library in Honey Brook historically has done political meet and greets until THIS election.

All of a sudden they were uncomfortable, and people were being told that some were fearful of doing a meet and greet? Val didn’t argue with them, she respected their position, but she like many of us have questioned the timing of it.

Sorry, not sorry the timing is totally suspect and that’s just common sense and if you go back to the most recent meeting for the supervisors, they had to go (and they meeting the library) proverbial hat in hand to ask for money from the municipality.

The way things work with bully or thug politics is often somewhat subversive and behind the scenes whisper down the lane where nobody overtly says an organization won’t get money that they need but they might intimate along the lines of maybe they won’t get as much because the political cabal is uncomfortable with Val running.

It is my belief and my opinion that any organization that needed money from Honey Brook Township would be discouraged this election season to do meet and greets.

This shouldn’t be the way it happens, but am I wrong? It’s bullying pure and simple, of Val AND the library? OK so the talking hoodie doesn’t want to debate, but are they so afraid of both candidates being at a meet and greet with other candidates?

These meet and greets feature all sorts of candidates running, including judicial. Just a little food for thought.

Of course the talking hoodie had to post a screenshot. Not that I care. That is an OPINION and they haven’t revoked the first Amendment yet that I know of.

This is shared because the library director was tagged personally, which is rather inappropriate – NOT her fault, just pointing it out.

Sooo before I get to the meat of the matter, let us address his accusation that Valerie Shultz is being terrible to the library. Honeys, I have it in writing and this is what Valerie said which was calm and measured (much like speaking to Valerie is):

Here is the text of the email in case you have a hard time reading the screenshot:

Jennifer,

First, I would like to thank you for working so well with Aurora, a member of my campaign team, for weeks to make the meet-n-greet candidate night a success.  I’m just saddened that your team felt unsafe by hosting the event and had to withdraw your offer to host.  Aurora indicated that you had been tagged in a FB post that led to your discomfort with hosting.  I want to assure you that at no time did I or a member of my campaign team tag the library in a post.  Unfortunately, there has been a pervasive effort by my opponent to intimidate anyone who provides me with a forum to speak to residents.  I am sincerely sorry if that indeed was what happened to your team.

Secondly, I wanted to make you aware that I was campaigning in the Township yesterday and when I unknowingly visited a member of the library board, I was accused of spreading lies about the library then had a door slammed in my face.  I do not know what lies I am alleged with having spread because she would not explain.  I want to make it clear that at the last Supervisors meeting I asked about the latest donation to the library because I was concerned about the impact on the budget.   It’s my job to ask those questions and the library is not the only instance where I have asked about expenditures.  I want residents to understand how their tax money is being spent.  I was in no way implying that I do not support the library.  I believe the library is a critical part of our community.  I am an elected auditor for the Township and have been carefully watching expenses for the last 2 years to ensure we are not headed for a tax increase.  I would ask if you are aware of what was so upsetting to one of your board members that you please inform me so that I can clear up any misconception or misinformation.  As a candidate for Supervisor, I want to have a excellent working relationship with you and your board should I be elected.  Please feel free to call me if you’d prefer to speak instead of email.  My cell is [REDACTED]

Regards,

Valerie Shultz

Here was library lady’s reply:

So all can read:

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts.

Aurora, a regular library patron, who has never identified herself as affiliated with any particular organization or team, approached us about hosting a meet-and-greet event. Due to our limited staffing following our recent reopening, and after much insistence, we agreed to provide venue space only, with no involvement in event planning or logistics.

We subsequently removed this event from our schedule based on our standard evaluation process for all programming. We are deeply concerned about false statements suggesting external pressure influenced our decision-making. These claims are categorically untrue. This decision was made independently by library leadership to ensure alignment with our educational mission and community service goals.

As a community institution, we will not tolerate the spread of false information that damages our reputation and undermines public trust. Such misinformation has created legitimate daily security concerns for our staff and patrons due to the inflammatory rhetoric being shared online. The safety of everyone who enters our library is our highest priority. We take these security concerns seriously.

We remain committed to transparent communication with our community. We welcome respectful feedback and constructive dialogue about our programming. Our doors remain open, and we encourage community members to communicate with us directly about any concerns rather than engaging with unverified information online.

The library exists to serve all residents through educational programming, resources, and services. We will continue making decisions that support this mission while maintaining a safe and welcoming environment for everyone in our community. We remain committed to our mission of educating and serving the Honey Brook community with integrity and professionalism.

I call BS on the library lady and here is why:

Hi Aurora,

Due to the way this upcoming political election is playing out online on social media, the Honey Brook Community Library will no longer be hosting a meet and greet event at the library on Oct 8.  We are concerned about the safety of our staff and building.  I hope that you have enough time to find an alternate place for your event.

Thank you,

And then there is this:

Once again a false narrative…and you’re lying when you say “ I can’t make this stuff up” because that’s all you do!!

I had a phone conversation with Jennifer, the director of the library, and asked her flat out! During our conversation she said that her staff was concerned about their safety and the intimidation tactics that you and Sal employ!

You talk about Honey Brook Twp being a bucolic community. I know it’s a big word. Perhaps you should look up the definition because your contentious behavior doesn’t align. Plain and simple. You’re just an overgrown, adult bully.

So then the trustees of the Honey Brook Community Library released a statement a couple of hours ago:

Here is the verbiage in case the screen capture is blurry:

A Statement from our Board of Trustees:

Honey Brook Community Library exists to serve our entire community through educational programming, resources, and services that enrich the lives of all residents. As a private 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, we are deeply committed to this mission and take seriously our responsibility to create an environment where every community member feels welcome, safe, and able to pursue learning and personal growth.

This commitment requires us to exercise careful judgment in our programming decisions. As a private organization, we maintain full discretion over the events we host, grounded in constitutional protections for freedom of association and our rights as private property owners.

Our Executive Director, supported by the board, makes these decisions independently, guided solely by our institutional mission to educate and serve the community. We are not bound by external pressures or influences that might compromise our primary obligation to maintain the library as a neutral educational resource for all residents.

Libraries have always been sanctuaries of learning, reflection, and peaceful discourse. Our community expects and deserves a space where they can engage with ideas, conduct research, participate in educational programs, and find respite. Libraries, while champions of intellectual freedom, must also maintain environments conducive to their core educational purposes. This means we must sometimes decline to host events that might compromise the peaceful, welcoming atmosphere that defines library spaces or that could create barriers to access for any members of our community.

We value feedback from our community and encourage open discussion. While not everyone will agree, we ask that all comments remain respectful. Our goal is to educate and serve the community, and we’ll continue working toward that with integrity.

Our commitment to community betterment remains unwavering while preserving the neutral, inclusive environment that makes libraries essential community resources.

Respectfully,

I love libraries. Have friends who are and were librarians different places. But to this library I simply ask are you playing politics or bowing to politics? Either way, you are a 501(c)(3) and you best think about that carefully. That is not a threat or anything other than they are a registered non-profit.

Isn’t it true the League of Women Voters meets there? So why can’t they, like their branches in many other areas, host a meet and greet at a library? It’s not one candidate, it’s as many as wish to show up. It’s a community thing and benign. A library should be neutral and neutral ground. But this is Honey Brook and it’s like a corn field Tammany Hall.

That is all I have got but the library lady does in fact need to get her story straight, don’t you think? If they are concerned because of a highly charged political atmosphere, can’t blame them. But the problem is they have done these gatherings before.

If Honey Brook Community Library is not doing this kind of gathering this year, then perhaps they need to issue a policy going forward that they aren’t hosting meet and greets of a political nature period. That way there is no confusion on the topic or suspicions of motivations.

Enjoy the day.

ego and ignorance in local politics seems out of control in honey brook township?

Posted on by

Let’s talk about ego and ignorance in local politics. Is it out of control in Honey Brook Township? I think so. It started because quite frankly, Valerie Shultz didn’t roll over like an obedient dog and be a good little girl. She has had the temerity, the audacity if you will, to want better for her community than the status quo. She is on the ballot as a second Republican running because the Democrats wrote her in. That simple fact speaks volumes, and signals she would be a community unifier except where the current political cabal is concerned. But nothing except world domination, or in their case, fishbowl domination matters, does it?

Valerie does not come to mind when you dish ego and ignorance in local politics. She is doing this because she cares. It’s not about literal or even perceived personal gain. She does not have to keep saying she is a good person, because people know she is. She has a moral compass and is bright and hard working. We have come to know each other through mutual friends. Do I support her? Yes, I believe in what she is trying to accomplish and I haven’t seen such a crazy municipality since the late Andy Lewis and others rolled up their sleeves to disinfect Haverford Township and if you aren’t familiar it was a doozy of a time over there.

Here is what I am talking about from quite a few years ago now:

Haverford commissioner indicted; fallout begins with township manager’s resignation
Moran guilty of extortion in Haverford State dealings
BREAKING NEWS: Haverford official indicted

https://law.justia.com/cases/pennsylvania/supreme-court/2014/39-map-2011.html

https://caselaw.findlaw.com/pa-supreme-court/1684638.html

https://www.poconorecord.com/story/opinion/editorials/2007/12/01/thumbs-up-thumbs-down/52723944007


Let’s talk about what is actually bullying by politicians, one elected and one a poor sad politician puppet of the elected politician, shall we? This is happening in an area which falls into the Pennsyltucky category at times for political behavior JUST like this. Yep, Honey Brook Township…again.


When you say they are practicing thug politics and bullying people and basically in a passive aggressive and not so passive aggressive way, trying to intimidate people, they subsequently project that if you are saying they do any of these things you must be the ones who are actually doing it, and really?


Most of us know that’s not the case, but if you are a woman who speaks out about ANY of this garbage chucking in Honey Brook Township, they want to pummel you into the ground. And this is the Internet so they also want to cancel you on social media. They want you to be afraid. It’s also gaslighting and attempted intimidation, isn’t it?


So I ask all of you out there isn’t that the true clear hallmark of bad thug politics? Doesn’t that show quite clearly that they have such little respect for women?


You have to wonder how do they treat women who have been assaulted or are victims of other crimes?


As women are we all supposed to be hung up with Scarlet letters because we don’t toe the line the way we are told? Are we all supposed to be bullied ends justifies the means because we don’t see them as a solution to anything?


Go ahead, you read these comments shared below (just a couple examples of many questionable things on their part in my humble opinion) and you tell me if women are being harassed and bullied here? Are women safe in this world we are living in if this is considered normal behavior towards women?


And most despicable of all in my mind as a breast cancer survivor is this is how you treat another breast cancer survivor? These men need to check themselves at the door.
Chester County Republicans and others? It’s time to get your Honey Brook Township House in order because they are also embarrassing all of you behaving like this.


Conduct unbecoming.

Writing about this leaves me at sixes and sevens, but I don’t think what they are doing is right. Have they attacked me as well for talking about the Honey Brook Township of it all? Kind of, yes, including nasty comments from a supervisor’s wife thinking she is witty. (Sorry her comments are well…just basic and I can have that opinion.)

Isn’t it true that there are certain lines politicians and elected officials can’t cross? Wouldn’t this behavior count? Isn’t it true supervisors are expected to protect confidential information and not use it for personal gain? So where is one getting his information? And how? Supervisors are also supposed to treat all individuals with respect and courtesy, is this behavior that? Supervisors must exercise their powers responsibly and avoid abusing their authority, correct?

So can we just ask WHY Honey Brook Township Supervisor Salvatore DiGiacomo is constantly on the attack? Is he running for office? I thought that was politician and Upper Uwchlan Police Department member, Steven Jones?

Now speaking o Upper Uwchlan Township, they do indeed have a social media policy so is their officer who is also a politician and political candidate in Honey Brook Township adhering to it? https://upperuwchlan-pa.gov/DocumentCenter/View/1417/Social-Media-Policy

Upper Uwchlan employees from what I can glean from their policy should be respectful in their online interactions, avoiding personal attacks, offensive language, and discriminatory remarks, so is this happening? Like many other municipalities, this policy which is not something thought of years ago, extends beyond the official township social media profiles, doesn’t it? Also is it not in there that their policy addresses confidentiality, privacy, and intellectual property, ensuring employees understand responsibilities regarding sensitive information, right? The policy seems to not smile upon personal attacks against other commenters, Township staff, or elected officials, so this extends to things done personally, right?

SocialMediaPolicyFINALDownload

I think it’s time for the dirty politics in Honey Brook Township to end. Residents need to be brave because these unpleasant folks only have the power you allow them to have. I fully expect more nastiness because I am expressing my opinion. They refer to me as Val’s babbler, etc, etc. Yawn.

Stop the madness. It’s time. We should all want better from our communities. We all don’t have to agree, but how these politicians seem to approach everything leaves a lot to be desired.

It’s a long way to election day. It’s been a long hot summer. Why is Valerie Shultz such a threat? I ask because we all know this is what this is about. That’s why a certain supervisor and his pal are in such a lather isn’t it?

Carry on.

need we say more? valerie shultz is on the ballot in november in honey brook township!
