Ummmmm, I distinctly remember the EC being TOLD to sell it asap. So what the hell Robert. This was voted on and enforced by the GENERAL BAND.
The general memberships vote doesn't mean a damn thing.
Even if they voted to sell it they more than likely only sold part of it and changed the wording on the motion that was made to sell it to serve their own agenda and split the proceeds between themselves.
They general membership needs away to record these motions at the meetings because the EC is not being honest with the people and that will not change until a change in command is made or forced by the general membership.
Why is the general membership never told about Pala Interactive or its never brought up at meetings. It’s like it’s a secret which probably means they are trying to keep something from the general council. Pala Interactive started in 2103 the year following the disenrollments, now we know why there was never a raise in percap or a bonus from the minors accounts that was also percap money. There were I believe around 60-80 Pala minors disenrolled who all had trust accounts probably totaling a couple million disappeared?? It didn’t go the the disenrolled minors or their guardians, its didn’t go back into percap for the tribal members?? It could have gone into Pala Interactive or something else smith/nieto wanted to own. Another thing that needs to be looked into when those 2 are out. Do you all remember after disenrolling I think 60 something adults that’s a lot of percap that was being not payed out so why did the percap go down soon after and the. Get raised back up half the amount that was lowered after people started asking questions?? Well it seem to work cause people stopped asking questions except the smart ones that realized we still got a deduction. So many things need answers and it still amazes me they keep getting away with this stuff because we have NO WARRIORS left in our tribe. Willy and King were the only 2 that ever demanded answers at the meetings and didn’t take “Not on the Agenda” as an excuse not to talk about it. Nona has stepped into their shoes for a couple meetings asking them the questions they didn’t want to answer and tried adding topics to the agenda to be discussed but now that meeting are far and few between who knows if she still has fight in her. The EC answers to us the people not the other way around. We are the general membership and have ALL the voting power. WE NEED to take the power back, get more warriors, get Smith/nieto out of office and launch an AUDIT to find out what Pala, Smith, Nieto owns since some of it probably legally belongs to the tribe. Or we might find out how bad in debt we are. Who knows??? Not the tribe since they don’t want us to know.
I say #1 Vote Robert out of office, #2 leave Nieto in for 1 more term. The reason is so that she will have to answer all the questions and I guarantee she will through Robert under the bus! She will stab him in the back over and over to save her own ass!
9:46 is right! I have worked with her for several years and she NEVER ADMITTED to being wrong, or apologized for all the screw ups she did. She always blamed her mistakes on someone else and then change the documents.
Pala Interactive is a money laundering scheme to take casino revenue, pass it through online gaming, and put it in Roberts offshore accounts. He also gets paid as the Chairman of the Board of Directors.
You dumb asses all we get what you deserve,get ready for the government ��
According to a County employee Robert Smith and Theresa Nieto have expressed to them that the Tribe/Band is interested buying more of the Gregory Canyon property where the old Verboom dairy was.
If it comes up at a meeting for a vote please use your heads and vote it DOWN.
We over paid for the property that we bought before in
Gregory Canyon because of the kick backs to smith and nieto.
Just like the fox racing deal where smith was given a 10,000 dollar kickback for getting the tribe to approve the fox racing deal plus an interest in the fox racing
on the Pala Reservation.
Why is the CBD STORE(DRUG STORE) STILL OPEN ? We voted to close the store. I herd the Owner TOLD ROB that he was gonna keep selling and there was nothing he could do. I wish Tribal Members had his BALLS !
NORTH COUNTY (CNS) – A man died after he was believed to have been in a fight in the parking lot at Pala Casino Spa & Resort, San Diego County Sheriff’s officials said Saturday.
The man was taken by ambulance from the 4700 block of State Route 76 to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead at 7:50 a.m. Friday.
Upon further investigation, the victim was believed to have been in a fight with another man in the parking lot of the casino at about 6:30 a.m., according to Lt. Thomas Seiver of the Sheriff’s Homicide Unit. The victim apparently left the scene and deputies found him about six miles west of the casino.
Homicide detectives responded and assumed the investigation.
Anyone with information about the incident was asked to call the Sheriff’s Homicide Unit at 858-285-6330. Tipsters can also remain anonymous by calling Crime Stoppers at 888-580-8477
The best tip is the camera's in the parking lo and inside the Casino unless there was never a fight in the first place.
Maybe someone beat him up at another location and put him where he was found and made up a bullshit story about a fight at the Casino.
Something is not adding up on this story especially if the smiths are involved somehow.
The tapes were probably erased by someones orders.
Sounds a lot like the Joe Scott story.
What's this shit about people with newer homes getting new air conditioning units but Seniors living in much older homes, some disabled who desperately need new units are given the runaround. Of course I checked into it and gee.....once again it's only CERTAIN families getting help who live in much newer homes.
Who's Running for CHAIRMAN ?
Hopefully someone that cares about "ALL" members of
PBMI equally and is willing to make the needed changes to bring the Band together instead of having a divided tribe
like we have now.
Someone that doesn't sit on or buys their way onto all of these Boards that don't have anything to do with the Band
as a whole.
Sitting on all of these boards takes away the focus of the main issue of being chairman.
Robert Smith needs to go as well as Theresa Nieto.
These two EC members have caused so much damage to the
PBMI that it will take a long time to repair.
If they are reelected again this term they will make the corona virus look like like a GOD SENT for Pala.
So anyone that replaces them them would be better than what we have now.
Is Nona gonna run for Chairwoman again ? I will vote for her and my family too ! The Casino is running fine but the tribes departments need to be looked into. Jimbo, Steve, and the Fitness Center Supervisor need to be replaced. Bring back the Committee. WE CAN RUN THIS TRIBE BETTER THAN 1 MAN CAN !!!
Nona can unseat Robert if she can convince the people that Robert and Nieto are bad for Pala, which won't be hard to do.
She will need to have some rallies that all members are welcome to attend and let the people know exactly what her intentions are if she is elected.
We need a chairman who will listen to the members and be fair to all.
She will need to be able to get to the outside voters and let them know why she is a good fit for the entire Band.
She is a very smart lady and i believe that she can do the job with no problem and that she will be fair to all members.
People should show there backing for her and start talking to her asap and see if she is interested so no votes are wasted.
Nieto and others are afraid that she might run and already making some bad talk about her to sway voters away from her.
I believe that she has the best chance to unseat Robert Smith and get the Tribe back to normal as one solid Band instead of being a divided tribe like it is today.
NONA- NONA- NONA-NONA.
VOTE FOR NONA NEJO AS THE NEW CHAIRMAN FOR PBMI.
GET RID OF PIG FACE AND HIS PIGLETS, THEY ARE EATING ALL OF OUR MONEY.
Pala Facts:
If anyone has noticed new enrolled members that were not enrolled a few years ago don’t believe their family “found” more blood that made them qualify. Robert has raised their blood to enroll supporters kids and grandkids for loyalty and votes to keep him and Theresa in office. Not naming names but certain people who’s children are in their 20s and some teens were not ever enrolled all these years then all the sudden they are going to meetings and enrolled?? Go to a meeting you will see the younger generation we all know we’re not enrolled until recently and as far as we now and their parents new they were the last in the blood line then all the sudden in the past few years there kids have enough blood to be enrolled? Check how many “total” members we have then the rolls were dropped by what 180 disenrolled or something and now the numbers are back up?? There has not been 200 news babies born in 5 years to have that many new enrolled members?? To stay in “power” Robert has enrolled families younger generation for support and votes. They are only loyal to him not the tribe because “he” and “he” alone is what keeps them enrolled. The older generation is dying off and Robert needs this cause they are the ones who know the truth of who were and were not members or had the blood and where the line should end. As more elders die Robert replaces members to stay in power and keep getting votes. You think with the state Pala has been in he or Theresa would actually have enough support to get voted in every time??? Don’t think so. Pala was the only tribe to lose their percap during casino closures. The only casino to not pay their employees something. Robert and Theresa will always be in office until a true list of enrolled members and their blood degrees is looked into. He has replaced so many disenrolled and dead members that they have the votes for anything they need. We will not know the truth or extent of his damage to Pala until he is out or does suddenly because I guarantee you to keep covering everything up and to stay out of prison he will have to pass on his power to his children or some family member by having his newly enrolled and families of newly enrolled members support someon of his choosing so they are the new chairman to keep other members from looking into tribal affairs. I knows this sounds like conspiracy but if you are from and around Pala or go to meetings and tribal events you will see enrolled members from families we all know who were not enrolled before. Friends who you know are the last in their line to be enrolled and their kids growing up we’re not enrolled but now are in the past few years. Some will try to say my kids were always enrolled when you know this is not so because they didn’t get percap before and all the sudden do. Ask them what their enrollment number is? Bet you some have a disenrolled members enrollment number? This is why Robert has hired an enrollment specialist for Pala so they could bypass the BIA records and make his own records that only apply to Pala. Get a CDIB from the BIA and their blood degree will be different than what Pala has it listed at. Part of the reason Robert disenrolled was to see what the BIA could and couldn’t do in matters of enrollment so he could start his plan of falsely enrolling supporters for votes.
I really think that who ever runs against Robert Smith and Theresa Nieto this year should call for at least debates on each one them so the members can ask questions about their intention as new EC members.
Including having them show their prof of the paper work that was used to disenroll legit members.Anything other than the 1913 base roles are not legal.
Have every thing put out on the table for all to see.
Last but not least have a mediator from the BIA and the FBI there and record the entire debate to make sure that all the answers given are sworn to be the answers given by each one is documented.
I will be willing to bet a 1 year per capita that Smith and Nieto will not agree to such a debate.
Why, because they would be arrested for their lies and corruption on the spot.
If t5hey do not agree to a debate they have them take a lie detector test and give the results to the to the members so they can make their best choice.
They would say that it's not in the Bands constitution for a debate, so it is denied.
Then the members can vote to amend the constitution, which the only legal way to amend the constitution.
And then someone would shake you and wake you up !!!
Just roast those two dirty pigs.
Why be so nice.
Get your fat ass off of this site , BITCH.
Drove by Steve Eagletons house today and seen our tribal employees cleaning his yard! It must be nice to have your sister cut the checks every month for all these years. I bet she also has the tribe pay to clean his pool too.

I'm gonna nominate Kilma Latin for Chairman ! Here is your chance Kilma. R U Ready ?
Yes we agree that Kilma would be a good choice to run against Robert Smith.
However you should talk with Kilma before the meeting and see if he is willing to run against Smith.
Get every family member and friends on board and let him know that the backing is there and we all want him to say yes to the nomination and that we are willing to put our trust in him to rebuild the tribe and put us back on the respected list in Indian country.
Pleasew let us know what he decides.
I received a letter on my door telling us we cannot use our own sports park and ball fields. It makes no sense since the skatepark, gym, church park and raceway are open. They just had thousands of people at the raceway with No maskes. Are they also going to stop the Supervisor and employees of the fitness center from swimming in the pool after hours! Same old shit rules don't apply to certain people.
The Fitness Center is Tony Ravagos Department. He doesn't give a shit about his departments.
That's why we need to vote in a new chairman instead of waiting for smith to retire, get sick or die.
Ravago is not a leader and would not be a good chairman.
Vote for a new replacement for Smith and Nieto this coming election.
Or at the very least get smith out this year and leave Nieto in until an AUDIT of all the Band finances are complete.
Why, because she would be the one to answer question about any and all financial questions that are found during an audit and she will tell all to save her ASS.
I'm not going to make it to the meeting ! Someone needs to Nominate Kilma Latin for Chairman. I herd he is willing to run.
To Kilma Latin,
I hope that if you are nominated that you will accept
and Run for chairman this time.
There are a number of tribal members that are willing to vote for you , including families with large voting blocks and their friends.
So please don't let us down this year and except the nomination if it is made.
Thank you and good luck.
Here is our chance Pala !!!!
VOTE FOR ALL THE NEW NOMINEES !
HOWARD FOR CHAIRMAN, KANNON FOR TREASURE AND NONA FOR COMMITTEE!!!
GOD BLESS US PLEASE !
Instead of voting for Howard as a replacement for smith
vote for a AUDIT instead.
Maxcey has already proven his commitments as far the Band is concerned.
Voting for Mr. Morro is a good choice and voting for Nona Nejo is a good choice.
Even if Rob makes it again i believe that by having Nona and Cameron Moro on the EC will make a big difference in the way things are done.
By replacing Nieto and Shelia it will take away two major votes from smith while he tries to pass things at the EC level,and Cameron Morro is very qualified to fill the spot he is running for.
We need fresh people on the EC and this will be a good start.
4:27
You have a point by not voting for Howard and to vote for Nona and "Kannon" Moro but why not vote in a WRITE IN for Chairman ?
Like who?
By writing someone other Maxcy in as chairman you're making sure Smith stays in office. You can't pick and choose when it come to the Chairman position, Howard was nominated. You want change then vote for it, if you don't keep Smith in. And its Kannon Moro. If you don't vote for Maxcy then you're ok with Smith keeping his people on the payroll being paid good money from the tribe to walk around the mall all day. If you don't vote for Maxcy, you're ok with Smith's nephews being allowed to take what ever they want from the mini mart with out paying. If you don't vote for Maxcy you're ok with Smith's family members and friends being allowed to assault people at the casino with out repercussions. If you don't vote for Moro, Nejo AND Maxcy then you're all ok with everything that's been going on. And if you're ok with it, stop crying and complaining on here.
WHAAAAT ???!!
TRY THAT AGAIN
It doesn't who you vote for, smith or maxcey as long as you vote for KANNON MORO AND NONA NEJO.
THESE TWO SEATS ARE THE BEST CHANCE FOR CHANGE ON THE EC LEVEL, WHY? BECAUSE IT GETS RID OF TWO OF THE MOST SMITH BACKERS ON THE EC AND IT MAKES HARDER FOR SMITH TO DO HIS DIRTY DEEDS.
SO WHO EVER YOU CHOOSE AS YOUR CHAIRMAN VOTE,EITHER SMITH OR MAXCEY PLEASE AT THE VERY LEAST VOTE FOR KANNON MORO TO REPLACE NEITO AND VOTE FOR NONA NEJO TO REPLACE SHELIA LOPEZ SMITH AND YOU WILL SEE A TURNAROUND IN THE WAY THINGS ARE DONE ON THE EC LEVEL.
Kannon Moro is very qualified to take over Nietos seat without question.
If there is no change in this years election we could be in real deep shit the way things are going.
Ya, Don't vote for Maxcy cause all we want to do is make it "harder" for Smith to do his deeds. We don't want to stop him, just make it "harder". That's all
Next year get Tony Ravago out! He is a FOLLOWER NOT A LEADER ! HE FOLLOWS ROBERT ! And he is scared of him.
Geronimo "Trujillo" Polig, (NON-MEMBER) nephew/adopted son of "Pala' greatest secretary" Teresa Villa was just ARRESTED for going onto a TRIBAL MEMBERS PROPERTY in the middle of the night and STEALING 2 motocross bikes. What kind of example and leadership qualities are you displaying at home that the children under your care feel the need to STEAL from TRIBAL MEMBERS? She also needs to be removed from office.
I am sure that all of your children/grand kids are all angels and don't commit any crimes.
Why should the tribal secretary be removed, she didn't steal the bikes?
It's the chairman's fault he teaches the youth how to be corrupt in order to advance and be an outstanding citizen of Pala reservation.
What about Tony Ravago, his son is in and out of prison. Or Theresa Nieto, her daughter is all drugged up ?
OMG you guys are ridiculous. So what if Tony's son is in/out of jail? As long as he abides by his parole/probation it's no one's business. As for Roy Lynn she's an adult who has made a huge bad decision but they are NOT their parents problems. The ones you need to be concerned about is Anthony and Brandy Castillo. Both are big time alcoholics, possible child abusers (how many CPS calls does it take?), threatening people with assault rifles, etc. ect. It's people like that you need to protect yourself and your family from. How many families here have that "1" screw-up in their families?
I couldn't disagree more, tony's son was involved in a fight at the casino and was supposedly threatening people that he had a gun. Why do you think he wasn't banned from the casino for that? Maybe because of his dad asking Smith to let him off the hook? Maybe Theresa Nieto asked the same favor when Missy Johnson fought at the casino and nothing happened. It is Tony Ravago and Robert Smith's fault because they allow it. I can't confirm but rumor has it that one of Smith's daughters also assaulted a casino security guard, I can almost guarantee that nothing happened to her
Again proving my point, every family has screw ups. I definitely agree when a Tribal member or decendant threatens ANYONE with bodily harm or death needs to be addressed, no matter what family they come from. The ENTITLEMENT attitude runs rampant in Pala because there are no consequences, that I blame on the parents and Tribe for not stopping it. I feel they are adults and should be held accountable for their actions.
Good try Brandy. Everyone knows you belong in a straight jacket for all the shit you've done to alot of people. Trying to divert the attention away from what you and Anthony did. Any idiot would know if Robert actually had done this his parole officer would have been immediately notified. As for Missy it was dismissed because the other person started it. You are friggin loony.
Get Smith and Nieto out of the EC and things like this will not happen.
Nieto's daughter is allowed to live in a tribal home and her lover boy there with her even after the people voted to banish him from the pala reservation in which theresa nieto signed the notice as part of the EC.
Yet she hides the fact that her daughter is involved with this guy who like to be run over by motorcycle's while fleeing from the cops.
Vote for kannon Morro to replace nieto and rid pala of the ones that don;t bother to even enforce the will of the people.
The same applies to Robert Smith when it comes to his daughter he never does what is right for tribe as a whole. He allows his daughter to continue her direct threats to the reservation by harboring bad people in her tribal home as well and having the swat team at her home and nothing is ever done to her, not even on the tribal level.
WHY? because her daddy won't allow it to happen, and that my friends is not what we stand for as a tribe.
No double standards should be allowed for anyone on the EC.
We have a golden opportunity coming up, let's not let it slip away arguing amongst ourselves. We may not agree with all 3 of the nominations but we can all agree its time for a change.
The way i it is the only way Rob can win again, having a fair election is to reverse the disenrollments and count on their votes, otherwise he is toast.
Everyone i have talked to says that voting for Howard Maxcey is the better choice as long as the general membership keeps him in check and also takes some of it's power back to the membership to have more say in the Bands decision making the way it should be.
I hope Rob does lose then he can be held accountable for all the bullshit he has done.
He can then be sued in any court because he won't be able to use sovereignty as his excuse.
I think that there are enough people in pala that would like to see Robert Smith behind bars.
And who is going to call the parole officer? Casino security? Pala security? You don't think they call Smith to find out what he wants done before they make a decision? You think Tim Ravago falls asleep in his security truck without asking Smith for permission? C'mon, wake up
I hope Howard wins and he gets revenge on Jimbo and Steve ! Back Stabers. Those departments need to be looked into. Both of them are ripping off the tribe daily.
Don't forget Leco. He has been ripping off the tribe for years. Get them Howard.
Smith goes and they all go!
I was talking to Goodpasture the other day about the elections and he said if Howard Maxcey becomes the chairman that he will probably find another job because he said Howard Maxcey is a pussy and he doesn't like Howard.
I told him that Howard would kick his ass and he said it would be a cold day in hell if Howard kicked his ass because Howard is like a little sissy.
Jumbo did some time in prison so he thinks he's tough. What a joke. Why did he do time you ask? He got caught stripping stolen cars just like he is doing now. Only he is doing it at the old tile plant.
That's right and he also uses the Roberts Ranch property to dismantle some vehicles along with the tribes tow truck.
He thinks he is a real tough ass but i think Howard could put a real hurt on him in a fight.
The only reason he thinks he is a tough guy is because of all the buba dicks he got while he was locked up.
Call the cops on his ass and get him arrested, he stores a lot of the stolen car parts on his wife's property
on pala temecula road where he has vehicles for sale
and has numerous storage containers on the property.
If you don't believe me just ask his ex wife she will tell you.
Time to get that fake Indian out of our reservation and deported back to Mexico where he belongs.
How did he get into the tribe anyway he was adopted by
Jim and Carmen Goodpasture so he can't use his adopted mothers bloodline to be enrolled in the tribe.
Its already being looked into along with another family with questionable bloodlines.
There are so many people enrolled that DON'T have the blood quantum or they were allowed to use BOTH parents Pala blood even though 1 parent is enrolled in a different reservation which supposedly it's against our constitution. That is a HUGE issue to look into. Some of the disenrolled, I'm sorry but knowing your family lineage how in the heck were you enrolled?
I went to school with both Albert Goodpasture and Carmen Ayala for 4 years and the only time that they had a child it was a little girl.
Years latter i believe that they wanted another child be for reason Carmen could not have anymore so they adopted a little boy from a La Mesa woman that didn't want her baby and put him up for adoption.
Jimbo, Do the honorable thing and Get The Hell out of here. You have taken enough from Pala. Just leave before Howard makes you leave.
There are/were so many people enrolled that should never have been. A precedence has already been established when certain families were allowed to use both parents Pala blood even though 1 was enrolled elsewhere violating our constitution. So EVERYONE now should be allowed the same. I know some that had their kids enrolled when they definitely didn't have the blood. All this needs to be addressed.
Jimbo isn't the only one that's gone if Howard gets in. Let's hope we get to see the Smith crowd go next month
Thats your EXCUSE ?
What ??????????????????????
Excuses are like assholes, everybody has one.
I think someone needs to look into the definition of a precedence. Obviously they have no clue.
Oct 23rd @ 7:47am
They meant precedent not precedence. A precedent was set when Robert’s executive assistant/tribal enrollment specialist per Robert’s orders allowed certain people to use outside native blood “total blood” from parents to qualify for enrollment and at the same time will still not acknowledge any evidence used to lower the Britain’s family blood. This is why we NEED him out because he does whatever he wants for personal reasons not constitutional reasons.
I agree with that, but there are certain families that were allowed to do this years before the "specialists " were hired.
Oct 25th @ 12:07pm
That is true as some families were able to use their Lusieno blood which I don’t see a problem with they are from Pala too. We were known as Pala Band of Lusieno Mission Indians for a very long time which never made sense to me since we could t use our Lusieno blood for enrollment. Well most of us.
Why hasn't the specialist looked into the bloodline of Robert Smith himself and Theresa Nieto as well?
I'll tell you why, its because she was hired by them to do what S&N wanted her to do and nothing more.
She needs to fired from the PBMI and hired by a farmer to shove shit in the corrals that's what she is qualified
to do.
She is not an enrollment specialist by any means.
So far in her employment she has focused on one family and one family only.
I hope Howard Maxcey realizes this and fires her.
The family I'm referring to, the mother of the children is literally the last of her line, the father is enrolled elsewhere but his mother is the last of her line but yet their children were enrolled. I'm not a mathematician but it still doesn't add up.
How did Teddy Linton get enrolled in PBMI.
Eva was not his mother she adopted him.
I think his father was Clarence Linton from Santa Ysabel.
Which was a brother to Eva.
He is Eva's son, her daughter was adopted.
Jimmy Castillo could tell you the correct history. Mother Lena, Eva's Mom is "old" Luiseno from Pala.
On a good note ! We all need to thank TREENO and his partner for cleaning our graveyard. I haven't seen it look so nice in a very long time. God Bless you TREENO and Thank You. From the Guachinos. PEACE ! ✌
Who is Treeno?
The little guy who works for the Tribe. He drives the lil red truck.
Thank you Treeno.
Now all the young tribal members will dirty the area with their beer cans and other trash when they should be the ones that show respect for the ones that have passed on to a better place.
Now you are the "BIG MAN" in the little red truck that works for the tribe.
Thank Treeno for your work at the Graveyard.
Pete Trujillo sr. & family.
With elections looming around the corner, covid cases are risimg up again (80 as of 10/31), what measures are tribal leaders taking to keep members and the community safe? The Senior Christmas party is apparently moving forward and maybe Treeno was just helping prepare the cemetery for more guests. This is morbid, but the elderly are the most vulnerable group. If you thought your tribal leaders cared about you, then think twice. Isn't it about time to change your leaders, these incumbents dont really care about your welfare. It's almost like they are pushing your elderly off the plank and you stand there silently applauding them on. VOTE FOR CHANGE THIS NOVEMBER!
Robert doesn’t care for the elders he wants them to die off. I know it sounds morbid and crazy but it’s not because he doesn’t care for them it’s because it will help his agenda. The elders of each family and the tribe as a whole know Pala’s history and what families should be enrolled. He plans to disenroll more families he is just waiting for the elders to die off so there will be nobody to stop him or question the history. He is slowing extending the blood degrees of certain families that support him to get the votes and stay in power. As more elders die off he will continue this, getting rid of some to falsely enroll others so eventually he and nieto will have enough votes to pass what ever they want and to stay in power. Then with those votes he will pass his seat to a supporter who will continue to cover up his miss dead’s over the years.
Keep in mind, I AM A YOUNG ADULT!! my generation is next.. please not only think about whats right for pala as of now but for the future too!! WE NEED GOOD EXAMPLES. Young adults or teens about to become adults need to see people of leadership in office. We need people that we (younger generation) can look up to in a positive way! If a mistake is done , do all that you can to fix it.., If somethings being questioned, answer! no sugar coats and leaving people high and dry.. just simply do the job that you promised to do.. no sneaky status and drama..just be open and NOT ON A PERSONAL LEVEL.. do what not only benefits you but the youth as well. VOTE to get things adjusted.... change has to happen sometime soon ,so why not start now ? get the disenrolled members back in , get the casino at its peak as it once was before, dont be greedy be THANKFUL.(some tribes get little to nothing at all), less drugs & alcohol taking place on the res(teens)and get pala to be a tribe that every other tribe looks up to and wants to have the mentality that we CAN have !! See how much damage has taken place already? but its NOT too late to fix it... dirty work has already been done but YOU CAN stop it from continuing . YOU as an individual can fix it by making the right choices, using the right voice, & making the right vote...By all means VOTE Nona Nejo and KANNON MORO...see how much change happens. theyre on the right path to be better as a TRIBE.. feels good to say what i needed to say
What happens is Smith stays in office? Nothing happens. Nothing changes. How many times have we've pinned our hopes on different committee members or a different vice chair? Smith gets them all to get in line with him. I'm going to be blunt, if all 3 don't get voted in its all for nothing .
If Robert Smith or Theresa Nieto get more than 20 votes each for reelection then we know that the elections are rigged.
Any one that thinks that these two people, that have avoided questions from the general membership for so many years are there for every tribal member need to make an appointment with their doctor to see why they are not thinking clearly and making life and death decisions based on lies and corruption that has been proven.
When is Election for Pala ?
If the United States can flush the toilet and get rid of thier trash why can't we? Let's hope we can do the same
Not over yet-ballots were stuffed just like the Pala elections;Pala people have no balls or heart,we will give the President elect the same treatment that Trump was given.
WAIT !!! I know we want a new CHAIRMEN! BUT FUCKEN HOWARD MAXCY? He disappeared when he was out voted by Tony Ravago. He or his family wasn't at a meeting until NOW ! What a Fn VOULTIRE!
You're a prime example of why Robert needs to go, he doesn't care about anything other than his friends and family. He didn't care about your education because you became illiterate. I believe you meant "vulture"? And by questioning Howard am I to assume you want someone like Kilma? Kilma who disrespected a well liked elder years ago? Kilma who used the casino as his personal parking garage? Kilma who has Smith in his helicopter flying all over the reservation, that Kilma? Don't ever forget one hand washes the other. And I don't care what Howard did after losing against Tony, Im more interested in what Howard does if he wins against Robert.
And I hope you're at every meeting, I hope you were at every meeting when my cousins were disenrolled, I suppose Howard's family "just started going to the meetings" just like how the meeting are packed when we're going to talk about bonuses or percap
No need to talk about bonuses this year because when they passed the bonus vote last year the EC stated that we were voting on a yearly bonus which means that the amount that was voted on and passed should be paid out every year as stated by the EC as a yearly bonus.
BULLSHIT !!
Howard is basically PBMI's version of Donald Trump... lol, wonder if he will demand a revote if he loses? seriously though, he doesn't believe in transparency, he's a narcissist, he's bad with finances, he would just be a bad leader in general... I mean, he was a pos as VC, and he hasn't changed don't let him fool you.
And you know who this person is voting for. This is probably someone who is going to be looking for a new job if Robert doesn't get reelected. Hell its probably one of the Scott girls or jimbo. If Robert doesn't get relected Jimbo will have a nice automotive shop set up somewhere of the reservation after he takes all the equipment the tribe paid for day Robert loses. Ya don't let Howard fool you, let Robert own you!
The Tribe is fully aware of what Howard is capable of, so they are forewarned. With Howard in the people stand a better chance of repairing all the damage Robert has done in his reign of intimidation. The plus side is investigating all of both him and Theresa's shenanigans and holding them accountable.
I agree, I'm not here to say Howard is God sent by any means. I'm saying enough is enough. Give Howard the chance to repair all that's been broken. Give him a chance to surprise us. Because we know exactly what we're going to get from Robert Smith
Also don't forget that Howard is the Godson of Robert Smith.
So will Howard be willing to go against his Godfather and do whats best for the tribe or will he ??????????????.
Maybe Robert has chosen Howard to be the New Chairman and carry on smiths legacy.
Smith hasn't sent out any fliers stating that he wants your vote for reelection which is kind of odd.
I'm not sure where your mail got sent but I received my campaign letter from Smith. And I don't believe Smith is his Godfather but I'm not 100% sure but I'll see if I can find out. I guess it was Smith being a good Godfather putting Tony Ravago up against Howard to ultimately take the vice chair. I think its kinda odd that trying to present the "if you vote for Howard you're really voting for Smith" tactic. I do believe some of the Smith associates are getting worried. Maybe even Smith himself.
I'm sorry but I have worked with Howard in the past. I have never met such a LIAR, 2 FACED, ASSHOLE. In my life. But we need a CHANGE here in Pala. I do not want to VOTE for Howard but I am willing to give him a chance. I voted for him when he became our VC. I voted against him when Tony was Running. But KNOW I AM GOING TO VOTE FOR HIM AGAIN ! PLEASE HOWARD ! DONT MAKE ME LOOK STUPID.
Okay so i just found out that Smith is Howard's Godfather
now i don't know what to think.
Maybe if Nona Nejo wins and Canon Moro wins then it will
be ok with Howard as chairman.
You guys have a short memory. We voted him out of being our V C. Because he did nothing but bring the tribe in dept and a t like an Asshole. REMEMBER? He is probably going to get rid of the jet and replace it with a helicopter so it can land on the golf course! I herd he sucks at that to.
My head hurts from trying to read this, OMG. Let's try and use spell check before hitting send haha
Sammy? Louie? Is this one or both of u guys worried, sitting in the tribal halls kitchen spoon feeding each other ice cream saying everything is gonna b ok? Hahaha
@ 8:13.
He is planning to build a golf course at one of the ranches west of the Casino.
If Howard wins the election he should start by having the general membership help in making more decisions when it comes to passing motions at the meetings.
Get more input from the members instead of bullshitting
the members and tricking them into voting his way.
And if he is really smart he would call for a vote from the membership to have an Audit done ASAP of all the Bands financials.
Just because Smith is his Godfather doesn't mean that everything is as clean as it appears.
The only way to make sure that he is protecting himself
from any kind financial backlash from the financial aspects of the Band is to have an Audit otherwise he will be the one to take the fall for any and all problems that may occur when he takes over.
If Howard is as honest and straight as his dad Poncho
Maxcey is he will do a good job.
However if he follows his Godfathers legacy we could be in more shit than we are in now.
I think he will do whatever is best for the Tribe. I would think he's learned his lesson. People will keep him in line. And unfortunately yes, Robert is his Godfather.
He is Robert's godson. Robert wanted him out because Howard was in the know of all Robert's crimes.
+*As long as the people have the balls to keep in line and not just give him the power to do as he pleases and he is honest and fair with everyone he will be okay.
We need a change so i feel that it is time to take a chance and vote for Howard Maxcey, Nona Nejo and Cannon Moro.
This change would be a big win for the people and a start to a new healing process for the PBMI.
We may never get another chance like this to replace 3 members of the EC all at once.
All 3 of the nominees have the quality we need to bring about some true and honest change. True and honest are words that could never be associated with anyone running right now for REELECTION. For all those that are on the fence worried about "what might happen" under Maxcey, we've been given nothing but tables scraps from Robert Smith and his associates, a table that all Pala Tribal Members deserve to have a seat at, not just a select few. We have to take a chance on Maxcey. I agree with the previous post we they say we may never get another chance like this again. Im willing to take the risk of voting for Maxcey, Nejo and Moro, I'm not willing to lose this chance.
This is how I see it.
Howard wins and becomes our CHARMAN!, He is asked to make decisions, He doesn't want to make bad ones so he asks the Executive Council for there help. Then the New Executive Council ask the General Council for there opinions.
AMEN !
A lot of talk so lets back it up with ACTION.
I also agree with 9:33 PM.
The general membership has to keep Howard with checks and balances no matter what.
VOTE FOR
HOWARD MAXCEY---CHAIRMAN
NONA NEJO------ COUNCIL MEMBER
CANON MORO---- TO REPLACE NIETO
THIS WOULD BE A GREAT CHANCE FOR PALA TO START HEALING AND MOVE FORWARD.
Dear Great Spirit,
Deliver Pala from the darkness that covers Pala. Bring back honesty, integrity, good intentions and eliminate the greed and ugliness that these selfish incumbent leaders have brought to our little town. I pray that you hear these prayers that hundreds of people silently whisper in their hearts. Help these people to have a new beginning and help enlighten those who do not know better. Dear Heavenly Father, hear our prayers. I hope that tomorrow will bring a new beginning for Pala, let us all prayer for the end of corruption and bring a new awakening!
Amen
Amen
NO BIG SURPRISE IN PALA ELECTIONS
ALL INCUMBENTS WON AGAIN BY HOOK OR BY CROOK.
TOTAL BULLSHIT AGAIN.
TALK ABOUT VOTER FRAUD.
ALL WE CAN DO NOW IS HOPE THAT ENOUGH EVIDENCE GIVEN TO THE FBI AND THE IRS THAT WILL GET SMITH AND NIETO ARRESTED
WHICH WOULD BE A BLESSING FOR THE PEOPLE OF PBMI.
I KNOW IT IS HARD BUT PEOPLE, PLEASE DON'T GIVE UP
SOONER OR LATER THEY WILL FALL.
JUST KEEP THE FAITH AND AND CONTINUE TO PRAY FOR JUSTICE FOR OUR PEOPLE.
IF YOU GIVE UP THAT MEANS THAT THEY WIN.
It makes zero sense that these people keep winning. Who are these people that keep voting these evil leaders back in? Am I missing something? Yes. We all knew they would win, but seriously? It's so rediculous, its actually funny! Well, good and decent people are obviously the minority in Pala. God has plan for Pala, but it's not clear exactly what that plan is. If I were to cheat to win, how would it be done? I'm curious to know what method Robert uses to ensure reelection each time he runs. Is it by forcing his followers to vote by intimidation? Is it by gaining an edge via mail in ballot? I mean seriously, people can't be that stupid to keep voting him in, right? Just makes zero sense, but we all knew he would win. I mean don't people want a more diverse set of leaders? Aren't people tired of losing money? Don't people worry about their safety when seeing numerous people die of murder and covid? Who are these people that, in good conscienceness, can keep voting these shady leaders back in? It just makes zero sense.
Wow, wth is going on? At least 1 of them should have made it. Of course they don't want Nona.
It's all about the mail in ballots.
The general membership has no idea how many ballots are mailed out and how many are mailed back to the election committee.
We have no idea if smith uses the dead members outside ballots for the election results.
We also have no idea if the outside ballots are received by the members that don't live on the reservation.
The ballots have no numbers on them so how can anyone keep track of the number of sent ballots and the number of returned ballots to be counted.
There should be a system to keep track of the number of ballots printed which should not be more than the number of adult members that are eligible vote.
When i went to vote at the site there was a very large stack of copied ballots there.
So what happens to the remaining ballots after the voting site closes?
If you add up the number of adult members eligible to vote including the adult outside members the numbers just don't add up.
So why even have an election if Robert Puttin Trump and
first lady Theresa Hitler Nieto won't play fair.
An Audit would get them out and jailed and it seems that that is the only answer other than impeachment.
WOW !
All the Bad, underhanded, shady, sneaky, 1 sided, unfair, crap that Nona and Howard did in the past is now backfiring on them. Just as it will to Rob and Theresa.
So 9:44 instead of taking a chance for a change in the leadership you think that smith and nieto are the best fit to remain in there leadership seats even after all the fraud and corruption that they are guilty of?
And now you will say that there is no proof that they are corrupt.
Okay then go to a meeting and call for an Audit and you will get the proof that will confirm these rumors of corruption and fraud by smith and nieto and other people that help them serve their agenda.
Voting for Howard, Nona and Canon would have been the best change for the PBMI.
The membership would have had a better chance to control a new leadership.
How many more members will have to get sick and die before you realize that the current leadership only helps their own followers.
How many more tribal members will have to be disenrolled
and have their rights to belong are taken away.
This is not some dream that will go away when you wake up in the morning THIS IS SOME REAL SHIT THAT IS HAPPENING RIGHT IN FRONT OF OUR EYES AND THE MEMBERSHIP IS LETTING IT HAPPEN, WHY?.
So 1:48
I didn't say any of that. I did vote for Nona, Howard, and Kannon.
@ 8:22 Sorry i too voted for them as well.
I still can't believe that there are so many blind members.
I Prayed that Pala had a Awsome Thanksgiving. I prayed everyone had something to be thankful for.
PEACE ✌
I prayed that Robert Smith would choke to death while eating the meat off of his wish bone.
And now I will pray for you. 🙏
Shit why not pray WITH ME.

Who cares
PALA PEOPLE ONLY CARE ABOUT MONEY. GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO THE RIGHT THING, THEY WILL ALWAYS FAIL. THATS WHAT HAPPENS EACH ELECTION YEAR. AS COVID CASES RISE DRAMATICALLY AGAIN. 107 CASES AS OF TODAY, PALA ONLY CARE ABOUT CONSUMPTION. NOT PROTECTING ITS FUTURE BUT ONLY WHAT CAN I DO FOR MYSELF TODAY. THERE IS NOTHING HONORABLE ABOUT THE WAY THIS PBLMI BEHAVES, ALL GREED, NO GLORY. I SHAKE MY HEAD ABOUT YOU, DISGRACEFUL LOST SOULS. PUT YOUR HEADS BACK IN THE GROUND.
I asked this before, is the 107 the total virus count since the beginning or is it the current present count? Makes a difference. Considering the party, drug houses I'm not surprised that's where most of the virus came from.
According to the San Diego County Health system the cases posted are the number of active cases to date.
Update on the number of covid cases in Pala are now at 109 as of 2pm today 12/09/20.
Another covid update.
As of 5pm today pala is now at 111 cases of the virus and counting.
Also heard that Calvin Allen is in the hospital with the covid virus and is not doing well.
Prayers go out to Calvin and his family for a speedy recovery.
Why can't people understand? Stay the flip home, wash your hands and stay away from the druggies. God damn it people, get a grip and stop partying, stop acting like you're immune then taking the virus home to your elders.
UPDATE AS TONIGHT, DEC 11 2020. Pala TOTAL CASES at 115. A dramatic uptick. Stay safe everyone.
Update 117 cases as of 11:45pm.
Just checked the covid cases for pala and it is now at 126 cases as of 12:32 am 12/13/20.
Cases for Pala is now at 128 as of 7:25 pm today
12/13/20.
Cases are now over 130 cases for Pala.
Time to make a Will.
135 cases of the covid virus as of today 12/19/20 @
8:13 pm.
139 cases of the covid virus for PALA as of 10pm 12/22/20.
Who is this PROVIDER OF BAD NEWS AND NEGATIVEATY !!? GET A LIFE !
Wow, Dec 22 10:16, what a baby. I appreciate someone caring enough to share the number of rising covid cases, but I want to point out, your count is off by one. It's actually 140 cases (by city not zip). If getting a life means ot advising people who are ignorant to the number of cases growing in the Pala, then I hope you continue not get a life. You might save one. Obviously 10:16 can't see the importance of protecting a community and one way of protecting the citizens is to make sure they are aware of the situation. Thi@nos better than the Pala Tribal Committee who has done very little to stress the urgency of the situation by discouraging social distancing, wearing masks, etc. 10:16, you are a putz. I hope you understand by remaining ignorant is what keeps Pala in the state it is in. Thanks 10:02, keep up the good work. Information like this is useful to people who don't know how to research the answer.
@ 10;16 pm.
I have a life and i intend to keep it as well as my family.
I think that it is very important to keep the people informed about the Virus and its spread.
I don't really give a shit about your opinion and i will continue to keep the people updated on a daily basis.
Have a nice day and Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Pala now has 139 cases of the corona virus.
@ 10:16 PM.
Here is one for you, Calvin Allen passed away this evening from the Covid 19 virus.
Now do you see why i post the numbers on the virus?
Please stay safe and happy holidays.
Pala covid cases up to 148 as pf Sunday, Dec 27th. It may not kill you but it could kill an elder. I wonder if anyone knows how many covid deaths have cursed Pala this year.
I think there were about 7 deaths in the last 10 months in Pala.
Stay healthy, Pala. Latest case count is 152. Dec 31 20.
I would like to wish every tribal member a happy and safe
New Year.
You never known how much time we have before it's our time to go.
So stay safe and keep your families safe from this terrible and deadly virus.
So Happy New Year to all and God Bless you all.
Nothing will happen until robert is out. We can give him all the evidence in the world and he can just keep saying “thank you for submitting but we have a preponderance of evidence to show other wise” although he will not show that preponderance of evidence to anyone so nobody knows what to look for or show to dispute it? Why would he not show his preponderance of evidence you ask? Because he has none!! Many MB descendants have gone through the BIA documents in Riverside, Sacramento, and D.C. along with Freedom of Information Act requests and they haven’t found anything that can’t be easily proven incorrect so I highly doubt robert has ANY little own a preponderance of evidence to show MB blood degree is lower. ******For any enrolled Margarita B. Descendant at Pala please contact “sstaley@palatribe.com” the tribal enrollment specialist and let her know you would like to look at your enrollment file. You can request to look at it in office. All documents robert is using to determine your blood degree for Pala should be in there and so should the preponderance of evidence that he uses to determine MB was 1/2 that is claimed. If there is only the stuff originally submitted by you or your family then that should be what Pala is using to determine your degree. If there is nothing then take it to the enrollment specialist and let her know “there is a mistake with your blood degree” you were going through your file and after looking through it everything states MB was 4/4 full blood so your degree should be higher. If there is something you do not recognize or that states MB was 1/2 then compare that to other document to prove it’s validity or it’s superiority to other documents. Here is Pala tribal enrollment specialist contact info which you can also get by contacting the Admin.

****Judging by how they act or what they will give you access to will let you know but as a tribal member you have rights to look at your own file and see what’s in it****Pala should be using what’s in your file to determine your blood degree so if there is nothing then you inform them this is what your blood degree should be or they provide disputed documents to your file and add them to it.
