MINNE$OTA'$ WEALTHIE$T COUNTY
When I Sought To Be Elected Mayor of Hamburg In 2022, Here Were My 'Visions':
I ASKED A SIMPLE QUESTION ABOUT VANDALISM IN THE CITY AND HERE ARE THE CITY'S AMBIGUOUS RESPONSES:
"Thank you for your email inquiry seeking answers to questions from the city as opposed to seeking the production of municipal data. The city is not in possession of any data that would contain answers to your below questions. The city is unable to provide answers to your questions. The city would refer you to the county for data
that may contain answers to your questions. Thank you for your inquiry."
Jeremy Gruenhagen, Hamburg City Clerk-Treasurer
"The City does not have any data in its possession regarding
your specific (above) questions and for that reason, the
City will not be providing to you any responsive
answers to your above questions."
Jeremy Gruenhagen, Hamburg City Clerk-Treasurer
How
'BAD '
Does This All
'SMELL' ??
E-mails Shown Received From
HAMBURG CITY CLERK/TREASURER
JEREMY GRUENHAGEN
In Response To My Requests For
PUBLIC INFORMATION !!
To date, HAMBURG MAYOR CHRIS LUND STILL hasn't responded to my MARCH 29TH 'OPEN LETTER' sent to him about the MISCONDUCT, CORRUPTION and 'COVER UP' taking place with HIM and OTHER PUBLIC OFFICIALS in the CITY OF HAMBURG (and ELSEWHERE) !! See my 'OPEN LETTER' to LUND, LEARN MORE ABOUT HIM & see his DISRESPECTFUL, DISGUSTING & REPULSIVE, SARCASTIC 'characterizations'

NOW OVER 116,000 COMBINED WEBSITE 'HITS' STRONG !! (And Counting !!)
If Gruenhagen DENIES LYING Well, Then; He's
LYING AGAIN !!
Simply Ask Him To Show You The E-mail That He
Sent To Me On October 21, 2019; 9:03AM !!
Also, Ask Him To Show You
My E-mail Sent To Him
THE NEXT DAY
Where I Tell Him,
"Something is beginning to 'smell
real bad' here."
And That Was
FIVE YEARS AGO !!
But, THAT CAN'T, And WON'T HAPPEN; UNTIL The CARVER COUNTY
ATTORNEY'S RESPONSIBLE FOR PROSECUTION, Are THEM-SELVES; HELD ACCOUNTABLE For THEIR OWN ACTIONS, UNETHICAL CONDUCT And INVOLVMENT; Which Has
UNFAIRLY IMPEDED JUSTICE EVEN FURTHER !!
ANY CITY, COUNTY, STATE or NATIONAL PUBLIC OFFICIAL Who, SINGULARLY or SEVERABLY; LIES
TO, STEALS FROM, CHEATS The Very People That PAY THEIR WAGES, Or ABUSES THEIR POSITION
OF AUTHORITY, In ANY MANNER; Should Be POMPTLY REMOVED FROM OFFICE, HELD
ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR ACTIONS And CRIMINALLY PROSECUTED !!
WHY DOESN'T THE
CITY OF HAMBURG HAVE A
CODE OF CONDUCT
FOR ITS
PUBLIC OFFICIALS ??
CORRUPTION Can Also Be Defined As
ABUSE OF ENTRUSTED POWER FOR PRIVATE GAIN.
CORRUPTION ERODES TRUST, WASTES TAXPAYER DOLLARS, WEAKENS DEMOCRACY, HAMPERS ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT and FURTHER EXACERBATES INEQUITY, POVERTY, SOCIAL DIVISION and ENVIRONMENTAL CRISIS.
EXPOSING CORRUPTION, and HOLDING THOSE CORRUPT to ACCOUNT,
can ONLY HAPPEN IF CITIZENS UNDERSTAND THE WAY
CORRUPTION WORKS and the SYSTEMS THAT ENABLE IT.
THAT is the PURPOSE of this WEBSITE and it's RELATED WEBPAGES.
