The announcement came out February 28, 2022, 5 days after the meeting.
Was the public involved in this appointment?
Maybe John Nibblin can answer the easiest question that has remained unanswered since January 13, 2022. Who from San Mateo County Department of Emergency Management gave the PPE to James Brown the President of Wine Country Marines on or before January 13, 2022?
According to San Mateo County Organizational Chart, County Counsel works for the Residents.
SMC Supervisor David CanepaSan Mateo County Manager Mike Callagy
First reported by Dan Noyes of ABC 7 on January 13, 2022 “MORE than $10,000,000.00” of PPE.
Former President of the Board of Supervisors and Candidate for Congress David Canepa claimed he first heard about it from Dan Noyes that day. He also knows Mike Callagy works for the Supervisors.
San Mateo County Manager Mike Callagy told Dan Noyes the same thing. He also said “I don’t know” when asked, How much are we talking about? He went from I don’t know to $7M in less than 24 hrs. That is a huge difference, We should start there before anything else happens. HOW MUCH WAS IT?
James Brown President of Wine Country Marines (WCM) posted on Facebook 12 minutes before Dan Noyes broke the story that San Mateo County Department of Emergency Management gave him the PPE and that he would be distributing it on January 25, 2022.
On January 25, 2022 the Board of Supervisors voted 4-0 to give County Manager Mike Callagy authority to distribute the PPE. Up until that moment he was limited to $10,000.00 not $10,000,000.00
That is why I asked Michelle Durand of Mike Callagy’s Office for a copy of the document from SMC to James Brown giving him and the WCM the more than $10M in PPE.
I’m still waiting for that Document.
Hi Michael
Let me see what I can do. With the holiday, it will probably not be before tomorrow but I’ll be back in touch.
From: Michael Stogner <michaelgstogner@yahoo.com> Date: Monday, January 17, 2022 at 10:55 AM To: Michelle Durand <mdurand@smcgov.org> Subject: Document for Donation of $10M PPE to Wine Country Marines James Brown
CAUTION: This email originated from outside of San Mateo County. Unless you recognize the sender’s email address and know the content is safe, do not click links, open attachments or reply.
Hello Michelle,
I hope things are going well for you.
Could you please send me a copy of the Donation agreement to Wine County Marines, James Brown mentioned on his Facebook page January 13, 2022 6:00 PM
The Wine Country Marines are excited to announce a partnership with the San Mateo County Department of Emergency Management. Specifically, the County DEM has graciously donated to the Wine Country Marines a very large supply of excess inventory of PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) that they were provided by FEMA, to be shared with the community at large.
SMC Supervisor David CanepaSan Mateo County Manager Mike Callagy
Supervisor David Canepa, Could you please take some time off from your FUNDRAISING and FOCUS on San Mateo County ISSUES. Please tell Mike Callagy the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors to put the VIDEO up so the Public may view it.
Also just a reminder to the public, the County Manager position is an at-will employee, the person/s responsible for his/her behavior is the SUPERVISOR/S.
Supervisor David Canepa, You along with Don Horsley, Warren Slocum, Carole Groom, Dave Pine are RESPONSIBLE for the performance of Mike Callagy as San Mateo County Manager.
It’s been 6 days since the January 25, 2022 BOS Meeting. The subject matter was more than $10,000,000.00 of PPE given to Wine Country Marines on or before January 13, 2022. Source ABC 7 Investigative Reporter Dan Noyes.
You will recall Sandra Lee Harmon was killed by San Mateo County Sheriff Deputies in Half Moon Bay on May 5, 2020. San Mateo County Government never came out and informed the public that the SMC Employees shot at her while she was unarmed with her hands above her head. They also failed to mention she was shot in the back while unarmed.
Sarah the daughter is in court today on ZOOM at 1:00PM
SMC Supervisor David CanepaSMC Manager/Purchasing Agent/Clerk to BOS Mike Callagy
Who ordered San Mateo County Event Center CEO Dana Stoehr to move the more than $10,000,000.00 of PPE from inside a building to outside?
DANA STOEHR: “It’s, it was fully taken care of exactly the way it should have been.”
On January 13, 2022 San Mateo County Manager Mike Callagy told ABC 7 Investigative Reporter Dan Noyes
He didn’t know all that PPE was sitting out, exposed to the elements for months.
“It clearly is a mistake by the county and ultimately, I’m responsible for the county. So, you know, I take full responsibility for it, San Mateo County Manager Mike Callagy said.
Callagy says he learned Friday that event center staff moved all that PPE outside to accommodate the Software as a Service annual conference September 27-29. He doesn’t know why the supplies were not moved back inside, but he is hiring an independent investigator to look into it and calling in the Marines. Why would anybody call in the Marines?
If Mike Callagy didn’t order it moved outside, Who DID? That is the question that needs to be answered.
Mike Callagy is not only San Mateo County Manager, he is also San Mateo County Purchasing Agent, as well as the Clerk to the Board of Supervisors which has prepared the Agenda Item 12 on January 25, 2022. That seems like a Conflict of Interest.
The BOS should ask Dana Stoehr who ordered the PPE moved in the first place. Simple question and good place to start. Also they could invite James Brown of the West Coast Solution Inc. of San Carlos and President of the Wine Country Marines to attend the Zoom Meeting tomorrow. That would answer some other simple questions, regarding the Generous Donations that WCM already received from SMCDEM.
Excellent reporting by Dan Noyes, How many San Mateo County Officials and Employees knew about this and did nothing about it. Hopefully some of it can be saved. How did Dan Noyes get access to walk around and video all of the damaged boxes. I’m glad he did, it demonstrates a lack or Security by SMC. Also a big Thank You to the person who reported this. This was not a Mistake.
SMC County Manager Mike Callagy
The County Manager’s Office is responsible for the efficient day-to-day operations of San Mateo County’s government and carries out the vision and policies set by the Board of Supervisors.
Making San Mateo County Safer and Eliminating Corruption has been a project of mine for over 20 years now. I support the Public and Community in the Recall of the Daly City Elected Officials. It is exactly what Jeff Regan recommended shortly after Roger Allen R.I.P. was killed by the Daly City Police Officers who claimed all 4 of them were surrounding the disabled truck with a Flat Tire because “They were there to Help.”
Bay Area Transparency Video made 1 year ago tomorrow, Roger Allen R.I.P. was killed April 7, 2021, 96 days after this video was made. Now I got to see the “We are here to help.” in action. Roger Allen R.I.P. also saw it.
A while ago, We personally reached out to Talika, Roger Allen’s Sister, to express our sorrow and outrage for his murder. And also to offer love and support for Her, Her Family and the Community. We remain steadfast on the resignations of ALL Daly City Council Members and the disposal of the City Manager and Assistant City Manager. They are truly trash! We have been active in sending very pointed and directed email messages and verbal comments to all Council Members as well as the City Manager demanding their departures. We have called dc officials out as racists, murderous cowards. We have verbally vanquished them to Hell. Dropping a few f bombs on them on the way. We verbally broke the DCPD chief and captain in prior meetings as well as moderator leilani ramos and most recently demolishing council member buenaventura. We have reminded them, all Meetings are their LEGACY for their current and future generations to view them as the trash they are. This is pure demonic cowardice evil. We would like to connect with Community Leaders and Community Organizations in an effort to begin a RECALL effort in early 2022. We think it would be best to connect as a Whole Community. Strength in Numbers!! We would be more than happy to support all efforts to begin:“Recall the Racist, Murderous DC Council Members.” More than happy to put the banners together. Please let us know if ALL of us can come together on this. We can connect in early 2022 after the Holidays and as DC City Council Meeting has been moved to Jan 10th, 2022 another display of their cowardice. Finally, it really hit us hard as many of us, if not all, have our Family with us this Holiday Season and Talika and Ms. Wright do not have Roger with them
Please let us know your thoughts of change for a better, safer Daly City in 2022. Best Regards. The Public and Community
Most residents in San Mateo County don’t know that the behavior of the Police Department is the responsibility of the City Manager. The voters of Daly City can not recall the City Manager, The City Council can Fire/Terminate her if they wish too, they don’t. So the only option is to RECALL the Councilmembers.
You may remember the Residents of Foster City, San Mateo County, California recently Successfully RECALLED Herb Perez the vice mayor. You can just imagine how many Political Experts thought that was terrible Idea.
There are many families in San Mateo County who have lost loved ones to Homicide by Law Enforcement. Please keep them in your thoughts.
If you are interested in joining The Public and Community in this effort you can send me your contact information at michaelgstogner@yahoo.com and I will pass it on.
Just ask the Families of Errol Chang R.I.P., Yanira Seranno Garcia R.I.P., Chinedu V. Okobi R.I.P. San Mateo County’s George Floyd, and Sarah Gatliff the daughter of Sandra Lee Harmon R.I.P. Roger Allen R.I.P. All Homicides by SMC Law Enforcement.
Los Angeles County wants a judge to force Kobe Bryant’s widow to undergo a psychiatric evaluation to prove she suffered emotional distress from leaked photos of the helicopter crash that killed her husband, daughter and seven others.
Who supports this disgusting behavior, all FIVE San Mateo County Supervisors, and almost every other elected official in the County.
Supervisor President David Canepa
Supervisor Don Horsley
Supervisor Carlos Groom
Supervisor Warren Slocum
Supervisor Dave Pine
Why would San Mateo County Residents need a Citizens Oversight Committee? That is what the Supervisors are paid to do, SUPERVISE.
Sunday, October 3rd at 2:00 pm, Chinedu Okobi Remembrance Rally led by the San Mateo NAACP, Unitarian Universalists of San Mateo, Island United Church, Justice For Chinedu, the families of victims who died at the hands of law enforcement, community leaders and members.
Tomorrow 2PM-3:30PM
Location: 400 County Center Building, Redwood City, California.
San Mateo County Residents don’t know very much about Chinedu V. Okobi’s Homicide, and that is exactly what the Government wants. When I say government I’m also including the Media/Newspapers.
Chinedu Valentine Okobi, is San Mateo County’s George Floyd, the difference is the world saw George Floyd Murdered because of a very brave 17 year old girl who videoed it and placed it on the internet before Law Enforcement, Elected Officials could get there hands on it. That is what happened in San Mateo County.
First lets start at the Top with Sheriff Carlos G. Bolanos, He is a LIAR, that is NO SECRET.
Sheriff Carlos G. Bolanos
Sheriff Carlos G. Bolanos Omits Community Service Officer (CSO) Joseph Gonzales name. He was Very Involved.
Chinedu V. Okobi was not running in and out of traffic, before Deputy Wang targeted him. Chinedu did NOT immediately assault Deputy Wang. Chinedu died on El Camino Real in San Bruno/Millbrae. The Six Sheriff Employees did not provide ANY life saving Measures for 9 minutes after they killed him.
Chinedu Valentine Okobi, was a 36 year old Father, Son, Brother, Moorehouse College Graduate, who was simply walking on the sidewalk on a sunny afternoon in Millbrae, when SMC Sheriff Deputy Wang got attracted to him.
I will be joining this group of very good humans tomorrow. I remember when I first met them at a Board of Supervisor Meeting, I thought to myself, These are my People.
Yesterday I wrote an article about San Mateo County Sheriff Carlos G. Bolanos that was sourced to Investigative Reporter Ali Winston awinston@twitter. I received a message from a reader that the article was not available, I checked my website and sure enough, not only was it not available there was no record of it from yesterday and how many people have read it. It simply vanished. So here it is again.
Here is what she said: You think it’s bad in New York City? Well also included in the alleged Oath Keeper Data is Carlos G. Bolanos. Carlos G. Bolanos. of San Mateo County, California.
Listing is attached to his government issued e-mail. cbolanos@smcgov.org.
Don’t forget Carlos G. Bolanos was illegally appointed to Sheriff by the Gang of Three on July 12, 2016. No surprises here.
