BISD VOTE SPLIT ON PROPOSED SARKIS APPOINTMENT

 Special to El Rrun-Rrun 

A divided board of the Brownsville Independent School District continued the stalemate at last Tuesday's meeting by deadlocking 3-3 on the nomination to appoint Brownsville resident Martin Sarkis to replace the late Erasmo Castro.

Trustees Carlos Elizondo, Minerva Pena and Frank Ortiz voted for Sarkis – also appointed recently by the city commission to the  seat now held by Art Rendon at the PUB – and the three other board members voted against the motion.

The board will again consider a nomination June 24. Among some of the candidates mentioned was Roman Perez, a one-time candidate for the city commission.

The board is under the gun to appoint a replacement for Castro's seat six months after it became vacant. That is August 14. The next election cycle is until November, well past the six-month requirement.

Taco Trump also didn’t send the Marines with food, fuel, water, and didn’t have a place for them to sleep. I really hope they understand they work to defend Americans and not this draft dodger president…the "NOT WITH MY TAX DOLLARS" crowd is awfully quiet on this absolute waste of their tax dollars.

Is SARKIS an American citizen? Show his papers, Juan

Martin Sarkis - ahora empresario- tiene un pasado negro en Matamoros, cuando se dedicaba a pilotear y trabajar para los personajes de la epoca

An Insurrectionist threatening to invoke the Insurrection Act? A Draft dodger demanding he be honored with a military parade? A Felon demanding law & order??? The irony is not lost on me.

Elon Musk se retracta en su disputa con Trump y lamenta publicaciones que “fueron demasiado lejos”

El due帽o de Tesla elimin贸 anteriormente una publicaci贸n en la que afirmaba sin pruebas que el gobierno estaba ocultando informaci贸n sobre la relaci贸n del mandatario republicano con el ped贸filo Jeffrey Epstein.

Trump’s mass deportation drive could separate families on a new scale: about 9.7 million American citizens, including adults and children, live in mixed-status families with at least one undocumented immigrant. In immigrant communities, social life has gone quiet; people hesitate to send kids to school, to attend church and doctor appointments, to shop for groceries. Workers look over their shoulders on the job.

“What we are seeing unfold right now is terrifying,” said Ashley DeAzevedo, president of American Families United, an organization representing some of the more than one million Americans who are married to undocumented immigrants. Anguished group members fearing for their spouses were making contingency plans that, DeAzevedo said, “should never be necessary for American citizens in the land of the free,” including packing getaway kits of vital documents and preparing small children for hasty departures. Some members compared their preparations to an underground railroad.

What if Mad King Donnie threw a parade, and nobody came?

If we boycott the parade while at the same time attending peaceful NO KINGS rallies, this would seriously mock MKD's threat to use military force to suppress protest? There just isn't enough manpower or equipment. Let's demonstrate the power of MASSIVE PEACEFUL PROTEST NATION WIDE!

He's run for office before but never won.

Carlos Elizondo is up to his bullshit again. Sarkis is so crooked just like Carlos . Unbelievable but that a man with no education and barely speaking English could be on the PD board and a candidate for the BISD board.

How pathetic, the person they nominate is a recycled failure from the past.

Nurith Galonsky dated Jerry the pedo for political help during her first run. Jerry is also related to Franky Olibo as Jerry dated his mom Linda Castro. Well who hasn't dated his mom? Linda Castro was with Robert Sanchez, Pat Ahumada, Tim Ramirez, Alberto Alegria, and she was after Coach Joe Rodriguez RIP! Todo Brownsville! Franky has daddy issues.

DP/M, aka Eduardo Paz Martinez, an old fuck, wearing diapered, viagra popping old fuck is the author of the first 6 comments, has risen from the grave to roam in limbo. satan didn’t even want him, rejecting him from hell.

Eduardo Paz Martinez was pronounced dead after a two pound turd he was trying to pass caused an aneurism in his ameba brain.

Caregivers threw a party at the Pharr Stilletos Cabaret to celebrate the old relics passing, only to be disappointed that the devil himself expunged him from hell.

Chinga tu madre cabron! Return all those tips you stole from waiters Mano! Cobarde! Poco hombre! PENDEJO!

I got jokes, I got jokes I got jokes. I was just trying to fill in the blanks..
Years Erasmo would talk shit about this guy. F this f that and f Jerry. Until I saw him go on captain Bob . Mind you (Erasmo said when he started to scream..) first thing he said HI COACH.. coach this and coach that.
This mother fucker likes to set up controversy to create talking points on his show. The same thing Baghdad Bob is doing. There is no military occupation the iraqs are kicking the Americans asses. Green screen drops and tanks are coming in on the background. The sky is BLUE , fRaNk will say the sky is green.

Was trying to piece these idiots together. Dang , Thank you..good day

Juan, why not Captain Bobo? Frankie Olivo needs a dad with money and Linda Castro can be his kid's nanny? Back in the day, Linda would go out with the Captain and Frankie would get a Happy Meal. Just ask Phillip Cowen or Rick Zayas.

If Juan Montoya goes into BISD, the students will learn, no phone use and moms will go and prepare lunch for their kids.

That is how it goes, the Board will choose a person they like and fits into the organization. It can be a parent, a friend, an exstudent, a former board member, a local celebrity...they just need to agree on the person they want.

Well, Erasmo snuck in because of that attitude.. careful with the word educated, the man is savy and has his head on a swivel. You may not like him, he is a nurse practitioner

Is that why Frankie Olivo is begging Daniela Lopez Valdez to be on the Board? He knows Captain Bib has a chance too? Juan, his mom Linda Castro has been with Captain Bobo too. Vieja loca.
