Item 11.3 on the Agenda for the August 16, 2022 North Miami Beach City Commission Meeting is Resolution No. R2022-118, sponsored by none other than Criminal Commissioner Paule Villard, for the alleged purpose of “using American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds to purchase 1,500 Publix Gift Cards valued at $150.00 each to be issued to residents who have experienced financial hardship and food insecurity due to the Covid-19 pandemic.”
Everyone knows that Criminal Commissioner Paule Villard’s real agenda is to buy 1,500 votes for her re-election on November 8, 2022.
And she has the blessing of your corrupt administration.
This latest scheme is nothing more than a blatant, in-your-face theft of tax dollars so that Paule can continue campaigning on your dime.
And they’re not even trying to hide it anymore.
Aside from the fact that yet another taxpayer-funded gift card giveaway is a highly unethical political manipulation, it’s also an unfair distribution of public money to only 1,500 (or 3.529%) of the City’s 42,507 residents.
How “equitable” is it to let the other 41,007 (or 96.47%) North Miami Beach residents go without $150 worth of “free” groceries?
Sure seems “racist” to us!
Of course, Paule doesn’t really care about 42,507 individuals — just the 23,035 registered voters who’s ballots she’s hoping to buy with “free” food, gas, and book bags, not to mention personalized coffee mugs, tote bags, tee shirts, and pens, all paid for with her taxpayer-funded P Card with no spending limit.
And if she runs out of “free” stuff to buy votes with, she’ll simply lurk outside the precinct on election day to escort you into the voting booth, grab your ballot, and fill it out for you.
Right, Paule?
(She did exactly that, and we have the proof so stay tuned!)
By now, North Miami Beach residents should be absolutely furious at the corruption and government waste going on at City Hall.
CALL TO ACTION!
We strongly urge you to attend the City Commission Meeting on August 16, 2022 and tell YOUR representatives to stop wasting YOUR money!
It is YOUR right to petition YOUR government as afforded you by the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States.
YOUR elected officials are supposed to serve YOU, not the other way around.
If you are sick and tired of Paule’s dirty tricks, her theft of YOUR MONEY, and most of all, seeing her face plastered on every corner of the City paid for by your tax dollars, demand that she stop it immediately!
Remember, this isn’t about Paule. This is about YOU and YOUR rights as a resident of North Miami Beach!
Yes, they will probably call you a “racist” for demanding that your elected officials listen to you, but it’s only because they have no defense for their corrupt actions.
If they do resort to that tired tactic, don’t take it personally. They have trivialized that word so much by now that it’s absolutely meaningless.
Once you speak your mind during public comment, be prepared for Criminal Commissioner Paule Villard and her co-conspirators on the dais, Michael Joseph, McKenzie Fleurimond, and Daniela Jean, to vote for this vote-buying Resolution anyway.
After all, they need that fourth vote on the dais to to be able to continue bankrupting North Miami Beach for their own benefit.
You already know that they don’t give a damn what YOU want because their only goal is to stay in office as long as possible so they can keep lining their pockets with YOUR hard-earned tax dollars and then some.
But at least your protest will be on the record for posterity.
In case you think we’re exaggerating when we tell you that Criminal Commissioner Paule Villard is just another corrupt, power-hungry, career politician, here is a video of herself that she recorded on November 19, 2021 when she spoke at a Haitian radio event while wearing one of her embroidered “Vice Mayor” outfits, four months after she no longer held that temporary position.
Pay special attention to the announcer as he’s introducing her.
First he repeats her flat-out lie that she was “a police officer for almost 28 years,” and then he announces, “SOON! SOON! She will be the first Haitian mayor of the great City of North Miami Beach.”
Try not to barf when you see the disgusting smirk on her face.
WATCH!
If that doesn’t scare you into action, nothing will!
If you want to stop the fast-growing culture of corruption in your City, you need contact every single person you know in North Miami Beach and urge them to attend the August 16, 2022 City Commission Meeting and voice their demands.
Then tell your friends and neighbors to get to the polls on November 8, 2022 to VOTE CRIMINAL COMMISSIONER PAULE VILLARD OUT OF OFFICE!
ELECTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES!

Meanwhile, over here on the west coast, we shall see on Monday or Tuesday whether or not the appellate court denies the City of North Port’s actions to deny the Good People of West Villages to vote to contract out of the fast-eroding city boundaries and leave behind the fetid odor of corruption, Special Favors for Special Friends and out-and-out embarrassment at what has been put on the dais by the developers. The good news: we now have a professional city manager for the first time since 2017 when the same goobers on the dais promoted the city’s accountant into the position; whereupon for two years there was essentially no government as we know it. Scamming, conning and stealing were the order of the day. It’s almost as if we were in – oh, no – North Miami Beach!
North Miami Beach has the worst City Manager in over a decade, so consider yourself lucky if you have a good one. I’m lucky because I left NMB eight years ago and the Town of Davie where I live has zero public corruption. Seriously. I checked. I looked under rocks and nothing slithered out. I count my blessings I picked a good place to live. I was thisclose to buying in Plantation, which is not as bad as NMB, but definitely not as great as Davie. I haven’t made too many good decisions in my life, but this was definitely one of them. 🙂
Residents need to rock the vote?
No, they need to rock the boat and throw all the criminals overboard and out of NMB.
Villard needs to be the first.
So, if one lives in NMB, works, and pays taxes, one is forbidden to participate in these giveaways? How do they plan to get proof that these 1500 people qualify? I would expect that they require proof of income for those that ask for the gift card. And then, city staff should have to verify the income. This is ridiculous. Do they consider financial hardship to be NMB residents that work but still have to watch how much they spend at Publix? Is financial hardship subjective?
They allegedly record proof of residency, which isn’t always accurate. I wrote a blog about it the first time she stole $100K for a giveaway. I was able to receive a list of the recipients, but as you can expect, I found discrepancies.
They do require proof of financial hardship, which I also exposed.
The only requirement is that you vote for Paule in November.
