No Kings? Or a good Mayor

Look at this clown. I'm genuinely curious how Mayor Matt Tuerk has the balls to keep talking shit on the Trump Administration when Allentown City Hall is a complete and utter joke.

I hear he reads this blog and isn't a fan — probably because I shine a harsh light on the real truth about his administration and this failing city. 

By the way, I wear that badge of honor with pride. Knowing Tuerk is annoyed by my blog gives me all the fuel I need to keep exposing him. That, plus the flood of voices reaching out daily with the nonstop nonsense coming out of City Hall. Those who fear retaliation and targeting by Matt, his administration, his HR team, and their weaponized legal crew will always have a voice and a safe place here with Abe.

How the hell is our mayor so obsessed with Trump and ICE while he can't even handle a basic snowstorm? Residents were furious at council meetings — streets still a nightmare weeks later, with Tuerk himself admitting "everybody's pissed" about the pathetic cleanup. Yet he's out there today at the "No Kings Palooza" protest in Bethlehem, grandstanding like it matters.

At the same time, he's promoting unqualified individuals to important positions, has zero control over spending, and is gearing up for more tax pain (we already got slammed with nearly 4% plus trash fee hikes in 2026 — expect 6-12% or worse in 2027). He can't get the roads fixed, shows zero real care for the homeless, bullies councilmembers, pushes family members of council into positions, and after five years has basically zero meaningful accomplishments to show for it. Pay attention to Allentown, Matt!

As mayor, you shouldn't be sticking your nose into these divisive national controversies. You're a local government leader with zero impact on the federal government or the current Trump Administration. 

You're absolutely nobody to them. Remember this, my man: You can scrape out wins in Allentown by playing up your Latino heritage, but step outside the city limits and try winning anywhere else. This is as good as it gets for you — and you're continuing to disappoint the people who actually live here.

Taking part in the No Kings protest today won't change a damn thing. It's a pathetic waste of time and energy. But wasting time and taxpayer money seems to be one of your basic tenets of "management." Who exactly is the "King" you're protesting, by the way? Last I checked, the only really recognizable King is in England.

Tuerk conveniently forgets how he pissed off Trump's people when the President was here for that rally. He got into a screaming match with a staffer over barricades, got handed his ass publicly, and the viral clips racked up millions of views — embarrassing himself and making Allentown look ridiculous. So sad.

If you zoom in really far, you can see Matt on the map.

You tried to put yourself and the city on the map, but only succeeded in showing everyone what a lying fool Allentown has for a mayor. Then you had the nerve to claim Trump supporters "left trash everywhere." We all know why: You ordered not enough trash cans to be put out, forcing people to leave their mess behind so you could paint the "Trumpsters" as slobs. I know this because I had friends who were there, picked it up themselves, and told me straight about your sabotage orders.

This post isn't about whether I support or oppose ICE. It's dead simple: Our so-called mayor keeps obsessing over things he can't control while the basics in his own city rot. Do your damn job, Matt. The people of Allentown deserve way better than this epic failure 

Sorry this is just funny
