Ed's Campaign Sign on 14th Street, Purchased by Car Salesman Mike Hernandez III |
It's not too big of a stretch to call Ed Rivera, "Brownsville's Biggest Loser," as blogger Bobby Wightman-Cervantes did, just a few days ago.(We had that designation in our notes, but BWC is just a bit quicker on the trigger.) Consider this, Rivera, a Harvard grad with a splendid resume', relinquished his spot as a Texas Southmost College trustee, to run for one, then another position on the Brownsville Navigation District, but lost that race by a wide margin despite heavy financing from Dallas car salesman Mike Hernandez III. He also found his brief service on the Brownsville/South Padre Island Airport Advisory Committee a bit too cumbersome, relinquishing that post.

The names EDRIVERA and RAULVILLANUEVA both adorned OP 10.33 advertising signs throughout the county with the space between their first and last names removed, possibly to demonstrate their frugality in apportioning tax dollars at the Brownsville Navigational District. We suspect Mike Hernandez III sells both the HUNDAIELANTRA and the KIASPORTAGE at his Dallas luxury car dealership and knows how to market an economy puddle jumper as a luxurious land yacht.
Ed wanted to give back to the city of his birth, but the negativity and back-stabbing have convinced him it's not worth it. He won't be running for BISD or any other elected office.
ReplyDelete...and on that day, whine as his self-entitled ass might, not a single shit was given.
DeleteSigh....what a relief!!!!!!!!LOL
ReplyDeleteEd Rivera is an asshole and just so full of himself. The harm he did to TSC will take years to undue.
ReplyDelete"The harm he did to TSC will take years to undue." Undo, maybe? You must be a TSC grad.
DeleteI think the loss at the Port has Eddie Trevino worried a bit. Mike Hernandez support of him may also come to roost on his head.
ReplyDeleteEddie TreviΓ±o should be less concerned about his association with Hernendez and more concerned with his association with "Imagine Brownsville". You can not undo what has been done. I would never vote for Eddie TreviΓ±o.
ReplyDeleteYes, it’s a godawful mess. And our moronic electorate has helped make it all possible. If I believed in god I’d say a prayer, or a thousand.
ReplyDeleteBullshit, bullshit, bullshit
ReplyDeleteExactly how I described OP 10.33 the first time I read their amateurish website.
DeleteEd had a five year political plan. He claimed it was going according to plan, I guess this was a set back considering how badly he lost. On the bright side he gets to go back home. Ahhh no place like home.
ReplyDeleteI recall another bunch of people with 5 year plans. Didn't work out for them neither.
