The scent of Santolina has now entered the mayor’s race… Contradictory politics, flip flopping, and two faced politics that have reached new depths.. We connect the dots on the political attacks on Tim Keller.


Folks, Santolina is a perennial genus of chamomile plant that was introduced to this area in 1952 from the Mediterranean. It thrives in a barren, infertile, environments that are well drained, and it lives close to the ground, spreading rapidly. Sound familiar? Because it is a metaphor for what is going on in our community.

For the last eight years large businesses owned by connected individuals have been thriving through political connections, while the poor in this state have been suffering while being drained. The current administration is a perfect example of this, with their slimy no bid contracts, and Berry hooking up his construction and developer friends as in the Albuquerque Rapid Transit Project. While all of this has been going on, we have been trying hard to connect the dots, put faces to those responsible, and outline exactly what is going on, so the filth is exposed to the light.

While all of this is going on forked tongued, politicians in sheep clothing have been portraying themselves as operating in the interests of the citizens, while attacking those who actually have a track record of exposing corruption and truly wanting to do good without enriching themselves.

After years of writing, and exposing behind the scene dealings, pointing out illegalities in the actions of city and government officials, and linking the work of others with the intel we have gathered, that closes the gap on exactly what is going on, and why… this may without a doubt be the most important story we have ever written.

The question exists… WOULD YOU WALK AWAY FROM $8,000,000,000, and just what would you do to insure your investment in something that could bring you that kind of money? Please read this with an open mind, and you do the math. We are just going to provide the intel.

THE BEGINNING OF THE SANTOLINA DRAMA AND THE PLAYERS
Western Albuquerque Land Holdings has been seeking approval of a Planned Communities Master Plan, called the ‘Santolina Master Plan’ in SW Bernalillo County.The area is about 13,851 acres, and is bound by I40 to the north, 118th Street and the escarpment open space to the east, the Pajarito Mesa to the south, and the area adjacent to the Rio Puerco Valley on the west. Along with access from I40, the property is can be reached from several roadways, including Central Avenue, Dennis Chavez Boulevard, Atrisco Vista Boulevard, and 118th Street. In June, 2015, the Bernalillo County Board of Commissioners adopted the Santolina Level A Master Plan for the entire 13,700-acre property. It is a sprawl development.

Jeff Garrett, of Garrett Development Corporation is the asset manager for Western Albuquerque Land holdings, and owns the land that would become Santolina.

The Law firm representing Santolina is the Rodney Law Firm. The four lawyers there working for the Santolina Plan are John Salazar, Richard Minzer, Justin Horowitz, and Robert Lucero.

Bohannon Huston is the engineering firm hired by Santolina for the construction project, and the CEO of this firm is Brian Burnett.

THE POLITICAL ATTACKS BEGAN
During the 2016 Bernalillo County Commissioner election the Santolina project became the main topic, and candidates were viciously attacked by interest groups connected to a political action comittee called New Mexicans for New Mexico (NMNM). Steven Michael Quezada won this election. The Albuquerque Free Press did a story covering this, and the Treasurer of that PAC was Donna Madrid. Donna claimed in that article that she wanted to elect someone who would bring jobs as seen in this quote.

“I’m tired of those with good jobs saying we don’t need jobs in our community. Why Santolina funds? I know Santolina wants leaders who are job friendly, so I asked for them to contribute to help candidates that I want to create jobs.”

Remember this, because it is just one example of where ones words do not correspond to their actions, or to a feasible plan.

The New Mexico Political Report reposted the below works from NEW MEXICO IN DEPTH you can see them below…

Please read the above articles and all links posted, because it will reinforce your understanding as we go along.

As the Santolina Building plan moves through approval phases, we are now moving to elect a new Mayor in one of the most important mayors, races we have ever seen in this city, and now the attacks are coming again. While everyone has been distracted by the infighting with the Republicans, the real treachery is going down right in front of everyone's faces. Those responsible have just used variations of their names to conceal, their connections, but we found out who they are, and it is not good. You see, this is why the populace are considered sheep. This is why most politicians are able to manipulate people. This is why they are arrogant.

Just as many citizens, employees, and others are crossing party lines to get the best candidate elected, the Democrats seem to be doing something way more dishonorable, and nefarious in the name of money and greed.

SNIPING FROM COVER
Out of the blue last week a political attack was launched in the form of an ad attacking Mayoral front runner Tim Keller. This ad was all about his voting for a Bill, that if had passed would have prevented legal complications for local municipalities in reference to enforcing sex offender laws.

The state AG favored the bill, saying that failing to pass, it could result in local governments adopting exclusionary zones restrictions that could open them up to legal challenges.
The Sex Offender Management Board, responsible for making recommendations to the state Sentencing Commission for managing sex offenders, supported the bill too. The general consensus was that “Imposing blanket restrictions has had a destabilizing impact in every jurisdiction where it has been implemented, and most experts believe that it is dangerous and counterproductive,”

Tim Keller responded to this Political Action Committees attempt to manipulate and defraud the public with the below statement…..

“As a father of two young children, it is absolutely offensive to suggest that I would let anyone harm our kids, let alone make life easier for those who do,” Keller said in a news release. “What the attacks don’t tell you is that as a senator, I fought for and passed the nation’s strongest sex offender laws to date, and as auditor have been a champion for public safety and tackling the rape kit backlog.

Since then, several victim groups have come out to support Keller, and denounce the attack as a bogus, baseless, and without merit. This attempt backfired in the faces of those responsible, as seen in the below quote.

“[Tim] is a champion for sexual assault survivors. He is focused on public safety and ensuring accountability among the agencies responsible for fixing the problem.” - Connie Monahan, statewide coordinator for SANE and co-chair of the state Sexual Assault Evidence Kits Memorial Task Force.

WHERE THE SNIPER CONNECTIONS ORIGINATE
Sometimes you just have to watch the smiling guy in the corner a little closer. When there is utter chaos in a cutthroat race, and you are number two or three, and you are just sitting there giving the perception that your hands are cleaner than the Virgin Mary, you just have to think… Why? When Dan Lewis and Wayne Johnson are kicking the piss out of each other daily, along with going at their democratic rivals, Brian Colon has been a little quiet. But what we say is why be quiet when you are number two or three. It just defies tactics…. UNLESS an unconventional third party is willing to do your work for you in order to keep your hands clean, and this is where you need to pay attention.

BACK AZIMUTH DETECTION TECHNIQUE, AND THE VALUE IN MULTIPLE REFERENCE POINTS TO COME TO ONE POINT OF ORIGIN
There is a technique used to identify an enemy snipers position, called the back azimuth detection technique, where one inserts a dowel, or rod into the bullet hole, noting the angle of trajectory to estimate the range, then recording it’s reverse azimuth to determine the direction from which the shot was fired.

As Keller was attacked by what turned out to be a benign add, that was eventually snuffed out by the truth, because of it’s trumped dramatics, and lies that could have swayed those uneducated on the true reason the bill was voted for, we looked at just who launched this add, did some digging and investigative work, and found out it was launched by a Political Action Committee called MAKE ALBUQUERQUE SAFE. This PAC, like the one (NMNM) in the BernCo Commissioners election popped up just as quickly, and suspiciously launching attacks before anyone knew who they were or who was donating to them. That was until now.

Make Albuquerque Safe was formed on 8/29/17. The Treasurer is none other than Donna Taylor… Donna Madrid-Taylor. The same Donna that used her Madrid last name for the NMNM PAC that attacked anti-Santolina County Commission Candidates.

Donna Madrid-Taylor is listed as a paralegal for the Jason Alarid Law firm. The monkey business here that raised our suspicions was when we found out that a possible relative of Alarid, Vanessa Alarid, is a lobbyist that was hired by Barclays Bank of London to sell Santolina to us all through our politicians. She is the primary lobbyist for Santolina. Not only that, but Vanessa Alarid is married to Antonio “Moe” Maestas who is a Democratic member of New Mexico State House of Representatives. And do you want to guess what district Moe represents? You don’t have to, because we’ll tell you. Moe represents District 16 which covers the West Mesa of Albuquerque. Why use two last names… unless you do not want people to pick up on the connections? Just our thoughts.
Notice the two different last names on her career networking profiles below....



Moe and Vanessa...


The Albuquerque Free Press AGAIN did another article on the impact of Santolina fiscally on Albuquerque, and we advise you to read it below:
ABQ FREE PRESS FOOLS GOLD SANTOLINA STORY

Is this the motivation behind the attacks on Keller? We think so.

The connections just don’t end there. Back in 2007 Brian Colon decided to run for Chairman of the Democratic State Committee against Michael Olguin. Governor Richardson appeared to remain neutral in support, but Brian colon made no bones about two things back then…..
Being very proud of raising $56,000 for Richardson’s campaign at the Sandia Casino, and being what he called himself… The New Generation of Democrat, which is another name for progressive. He was also supported by the progressive wing of the political party, and was heavily aligned with Antonio Moe Maestas. There ya go people.

Joe Monahan did an article on this and you can read the details there…
JOE MONAHAN'S BRIAN COLON DEMOCRATIC COMMITEE STORY LINK

DEMOCRATS BETRAYING DEMOCRATS VIA THIRD PARTY SNIPERS FOR BIG MONEY CORPORATE DEVELOPER INTERESTS AGAIN
If you look at what we have here it is people claiming to be Democrats, looking out for jobs for people, but who are only in it for the short run to make a profit, and they could care less about the long term. Is taking water away from out South Valley people looking out for Albuquerque? Read the below article from Las Acequias…..
LAS ACEQUIAS SOUTH VALLEY SANTOLINA THREAT STORY LINK

Some of contributors to the NMNM PAC were below:
Rodey Law firm gave $25,000
Jeff Garrett of Western ABQ Land Holdings LLC Gave $5,000
Bohannon Huston CEO gave $10,000

The above are all democrats, or democratically affiliated. The difference here is that Colon Supports Santolina, but Keller does not. People connected to Colons political friends are behind the attacks coming at Keller…. All over sprawling developer interests.

We hear that Colon expects support from those he does things for, and we are sure this goes the other way too, but this is just plain disturbing.

Colon has claimed that he was not involved in any of the things, or the investigation into former governor Richardson’s pay to play investigation, and that he was never even interviewed, but he was the Democratic Committee Chair Person during the time in question, and he was not the one who called for an investigation either. Let's see him try to flip flop again, like he did with firing police chief Eden, when it comes time to make his stance, since people have accused Keller of being an extreme Progressive when in all actuality he is very grounded and willing to just do the right thing.

As we see it, Brian Colon is in a very sticky situation here as Santolina interests infest this election as it did the BernCo. election last year, with the same characters behind the shenanigans.
He is in an even stickier one after seeing the below video.

If 40,000 $200,000 homes are built in Santolina, that amounts to $8,000,000,000.
You do the math. We know the motivation.

SELLING OUT THE BARRIO
Here is the deal folks. Brian Colon is benefitting from an attack ad being driven by Santolina supporters and personal friends of his. While everyone seems to be distracted by the fights between Lewis and Johnson, the real fact is that the Colon camp has come at Keller with a knife.
And we thought Berry was bad…


THIS IS A PUBLIC SERVICE MESSAGE FROM YOUR FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD EYE.

That is some story. But doesn't Colon's law firm represent the County in the case of Javier Benavidez et al vs Bernalillo County Board of County Commissioners et al? I thought Colon's law firm was representing the County and argued against the interests of Santolina and the Rodey law firm in that case. In other words, the County did not give Santolina everything it wanted and Colon's law firm is taking the side of the County. Am I missing something here?

This goes up 13 days before the election. Woweee if that is not chilling. Some very damning shit right there.

Joe Monahan's blog about Michelle Garcia Holmes was good. She didn't attend a recent debate/forum because she has the guts to not go along with the good ole boy system. She would be a breath of fresh air on the 11th floor.

I don’t believe Colon is counsel in that matter and as typical Brian he wants his cake and eat it also. Bottom line is his pals and donors are pro Santolina. That ad attacking Keller was a “flank attack” as somebody sharper than me once said.

Looks like this guy thought he was going to give Albuquerque the ol Colon hydrotherapy hosing. Not!

Anonymous said...

Why did Colon's firm represent the county vs Santonlina when Santolina is supporting Colon?

Easy. Double dipping. Be the lawyer for both sides and rack those fees up. Brian wants his cake and has obviously eaten plenty of it too.

Excellent investigation Eye. People write untrue stories about me without even contacting me for the facts in an effort to discredit Tim Keller who I support. Now I know where that attack came from in my opinion . Anyone who knows me knows I am conservative so how do you backstabbers square that with your attacks on Mr. Keller ? It seems to me that corruption in New Mexico and Albuquerque are the expected normal. No wonder we are last in everything and have the highest unemployment rate of anyone surrounding our State. We can not even take care of our children as stated in a recent article in the Journal. I vote person not party . The corruption must end or this great State and City will never move forward. So to all you attackers hide under your rock or your mothers basement and attack away.

Paul Heh please confirm you have not been promised anything by Keller for your endorsement they way you were promised by Berry 8 years ago to get rid of Schultz and you got mad at him and ran against him when he did not. Also confirm you are not wanting to be on the Chief selection committee and you are not promoting any one to be chief. One man's' allege corruption often times reveals the accuser's own corruption.

Great investigative work, one correction is that the deal is worth $8 billion in homes, not $8 million

Anonymous said...

The joke is on Santolina, who the hell is going to buy 40k new homes in Abq??? Albuquerque's population has been flat for the past 8 years, and Rio Rancho is barely doing better but still has too many homes on the market.

The best part of the Journal poll on Berry's approval rating is that it sucks, the second best part is that Berry would still beat Pete d.

Hahahahahaaah. BERRY WOULD STILL BEAT DINELLI. YOU ARE SO RIGHT.

Peter is on the sidelines and hating it. That little bitch. Ha can do nothing but preach and pontificate like the nutless kitchen bitch he is. In his latest ranting he says a defender of Keller is acting like his father when all this little baby has been doing is protecting his little fabergé egg Gus like a mother hen. Yes, Pete you are a little mother hen, you benched pussy. Look in the mirror at your mouth. It is so baggy because it is stretched out because it runs non stop. What a self important little wind bag. Not only Berry but this guy dropped out because he knew a child had a better chance of winning than he did. Those who stir the pot should be made to lick the spoon. Pete is not going to like it when that spoon gets put in front of him.

Anything involving Moe Maestas involves lying and cheating. He was a corrupt lying ADA, and clearly uses the same cheating lying tactics he used as an ADA, in his political career. Screw Colon and Maestas - go Keller.
