Who Will The City Of Milwaukee Voters Elect, Dumb Or Dumber For Mayor? Both Former Aldermen Cavalier Johnson And Robert "Bob" Donovan Are Candidates For Mayor

Who will be the next Mayor of Milwaukee, Dumb or Dumber?

By H. Nelson Goodson, a Southside of Milwaukee voter

March 29, 2022

Milwaukee, Wisconsin - Next week Tuesday, on April 5, 2021, Milwaukee registered voters will decide who to elect for mayor in the City of Milwaukee. Will it be either Dumb or Dumber who gets elected? Sorry folks, no credible and courageous write-in candidates decided to throw their hats in the race this time around.

Current acting Mayor and former Alderman Cavalier Johnson, a mayoral candidate is definitely a anti Black and Latino politician who barred color groups from attending a town hall meeting and is being sued in federal court, plus he also signed into law an ordinance approved by 11 Milwaukee Common Council members that rejected a third Latino/Hispanic majority voting-age population Aldermanic District. Shame on him.

Voces de la Frontera Action decided to go against its sister organization Voces de la Frontera who led the struggle to create a third Hispanic majority voting-age population Aldermanic District in the Southside with various groups and public elected officials including the Wisconsin Hispanic Scholarship Foundation Inc. that sponsors the three-day Mexican Fiesta at Summerfest in late August. But, Voces de la Frontera Action Board of Directors betrayed the Latino community and threw its own sister organization Voces de la Frontera under the bus and endorsed Johnson for Mayor despite his anti-Hispanic majority voting-age population Aldermanic District stand. Shame on them.

Also mayoral candidate Robert "Bob" Donovan, who retired from the Milwaukee Common Council failed to pass an ordinance to ban all taco food trucks along W. National Ave. between S. 27 to S. 38 Streets in the Southside of Milwaukee. As it turned out, Donovan was targeting only one taco food truck. Donovan's ban of taco food trucks ordinance was a passed by the Milwaukee Common Council and then it was vetoed by former Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett after a public outcry against Donovan's anti-taco food truck ordinance.

Donovan was recently recorded live on Facebook by a victim of an alleged physical assault. Donovan appeared to strike a elderly known clown by the name Ken Kraucunas who stopped to speak to Donovan at the Zebb's Restaurant on S. 27 and W. Morgan Ave.

In Wisconsin, it's a felony to physically assault an elderly person, if a criminal complaint is filed by the victim.

Inept Waukesha County Family Court Judge Ralph Ramirez Refuses To Vacate Erroneous Act By Judge Michael J. Aprahamian To Bar Divorced Mother Julie Valadez From Seeing Her Own Four Kids

Judge Ramirez continues to ignore the Wisconsin Court of Appeals order to remand and reverse the illegal decision by former Judge Aprahamian in the case to prevent divorced mother Valadez from seeing her own four kids.

Match 25, 2022

Waukesha, Wisconsin - On Friday, Waukesha County family court Judge Ralph Ramirez continued to refuse to vacate the illegal act by former Judge Michael J. Aprahamian to prevent Julie Valadez from seeing her four kids in the Julie Valadez v. Ricardo Valadez divorce case. Her ex-husband, Ricardo was awarded placement and custody of the four children after he lied in family court that he had completed a program mandated by state law, the Wisconsin Court of Appeals found. Ricardo had failed to complete a state certified batterer's treatment program as required by law. He was was found to be an alcoholic and had a history of domestic abuse, according to the Waukesha Police Department records and Julie had a restraining order against him who he also violated.

Judge Ramirez should have immediately vacated former Judge Aprahamian's decision and should have allowed Julie to have custody of her children, but instead Judge Ramirez continues to apply cruel and unusual punishment against Julie who hasn't been able to see or spend time with her kids due to the erroneous act by the inept Judge Aprahamian.

Judge Ramirez is now prolonging the irreparable harm against Julie and her four children until June, which Ramirez has set hearings and a trial to determine what to do, but it doesn't guarantee that Julie will actually have her children returned, since Judge Ramirez has kept  Judge Aprahamian's illegal decision to keep Julie from her children.

Julies current attorney Peter Ramirez gave notice to the court on Friday that he will no longer continue with the case and is removing his services from representing Julie.

Also on Friday, during a press conference, Julie Valadez announced that she will now ask the Wisconsin State Supreme Court to enforce the Wisconsin Court of Appeals ruling in her favor to vacate former Waukesha County family court Judge Aprahamian's erroneous decision to prevent her from getting full custody of her children, which the current presiding Judge Ramirez in her divorce case kept Aprahamian's illegal decision and won't vacate Aprahamian's illegal placement and custody to her ex-husband.

Just because the Wisconsin Court of Appeals didn't grant a Supervisory Writ to Julie Valadez, on March 25, 2022 during the case hearing, Judge Ramirez was quoted that he believes he didn't do anything wrong by letting Aprahamian's illegal displacement order of the four Valadez's children continue. Ramirez stated on the record, "I don't mean any disrespect, and you asked the Court of Appeals to review what I had decided. They did so and they declined to issue a supervisory writ, which clearly means to me, Judge, we are not telling you that you did anything wrong. All right." On the contrary, Judge Ramirez has ignore the Court of Appeals order that says, former Judge Aprahamian's decision to award Julie's ex-husband sole custody and placement of her four children was illegal. Since the Wisconsin Court of Appeals ruling, Judge Ramirez has kept Judge Aprahamian's illegal acts in place and hasn't vacated Aprahamian's erroneous decision concerning custody and placement of the Valadez's children. (Page 13, court transcript dated March 25, 2022)

Wisconsin Court of Appeals Judge Shelley A. Crogan in the dissenting opinion wrote, "It is undisputed that Ricardo Valadez engaged in a pattern of domestic abuse. The first circuit court made that finding. Despite that finding, the first circuit court gave Ricardo sole custody of all four of the Valadez children. In other words, the first circuit court did exactly what the law said it could not do. The first circuit court also failed to make the safety of Julie and the children the paramount concern in determining custody and placement, which the law required it to do. Julie then waited from May 2020 until December 29, 2021 for this court to recognize that her family was subjected to an unlawful judgment—a judgment that WIS. STAT.

§ 767.41(2)(d)1 says was contrary to the best interest of these children and that likewise did not comply with WIS. STAT. § 767.41(5)(bm)."

"When this court said that the judgment was unlawful and reversed it—a decision we based on statutes that say the circuit court cannot give custody to the abuser because doing so is contrary to the best interest of the children and that the safety of Julie and the children must be the paramount concern regarding custody and placement under these circumstances—the new circuit court should have vacated that judgment and returned to the custody and placement order that was in place before the unlawful judgment was entered. The majority says our December 2021 decision reversing the judgment was not specific enough for us to now conclude that the new circuit court violated a plain legal duty. The majority says our decision did not specifically direct the new circuit court to vacate the judgment and return to the prior order. I disagree. We reversed the judgment because the first circuit court granted custody and physical placement in clear violation of the law. There is no other option except to vacate that judgment and return the parties to the position they were in before the first circuit court acted unlawfully. By failing to do so, the new circuit court keeps in place a judgment that this court said violates the law. It keeps in place a reversed judgment that, according to WIS. STAT. § 767.41(2)(d)1, is contrary to the best interest of the children. It likewise keeps in place a reversed judgment that was entered without making Julie and the children's safety and well-being the most important factor in determining custody and placement as required by WIS. STAT. § 767.41(5)(bm).

"Julie suffered injustice when the first circuit court failed to follow the law. She suffers again here not only because of the length of time it took for her June 2020 appeal but also because the new circuit court (and now the majority) determined that our December 2021 decision—reversing a judgment that violated the law—somehow did not sufficiently explain to the new circuit court that it should not allow a judgment that violated the law to remain in effect upon remand. Now, Julie must wait again and hope that the new circuit court properly applies 

the domestic abuse custody and placement statutes, which exist to protect her and her children.  And, if the new circuit court, like the first circuit court, fails to do so, she will likely have to wait 

at least another year to receive a second appellate decision."

The Julie Valadez v. Ricardo Valadez divorce case has shown how Waukesha County family court judges are so inept and don't follow state law to protect a domestic abuse mother and her children from a known alcoholic and domestic abuser. 

A lack of judicial accountability for inept judges in family court in Waukesha County including Wisconsin just prolongs the irreparable hardship and life long psychological emotional scars and damage for domestic abuse victims and their children.

Update: 

Julie Valadez posted on her Facebook account on April 3, 2022, the following post about how corrupt is the Waukesha County Court and family divorce judges.

Julie wrote, I want to point out something else: 

I have been called back to just family court with the domestic abuser 26 times since they entered the unlawful final ruling. 

Think about that for a moment- think about what that would do to your life. 

Since the final ruling was entered on April 9, 2020 to March 2022 in those 23 months I have been called back to court 32 times. 

If that is not court abuse and literal harassment what is? 

None of these hearings have been lawful or in accordance with Wisconsin statutes.

That does not even include the criminal hearings for the violations of restraining order that had a hearing 8/11/20, 10/07/20, 1/27/21, 5/14/21.

*I did not start any litigation while my appeal was pending obviously, I knew there was misconduct in the circuit court so I was addressing it with the higher court. 

I did file for stay of the final order pending appeal. Everything else was my ex and the gals misconduct and harassment. 

For example Katherine Delorenzo was confronted by the Waukesha Sheriffs detective for harassing me and retaliating against me in the family case after she was referred criminal charges and then she was removed. Susan Opper, the Waukesha County District Attorney should be addressing Molly Jasmer but Susan Opper has done NOTHING about the misconduct going on in the courthouse.

Donovan tells Kraucunas to "get out of my hair, you get out of here, what's the hell is wrong with you...you are crazy".

Donovan then heads to the bathroom and an unidentified Zebb's Restaurant waitress tells Kraucunas to leave.

As Kraucunas makes his way out of the restaurant, he tells Donovan who is walking to the men's bathroom "don't attack me" and Donovan responded "get out of here". Kraucunas as he is leaving says, Donovan is fighting for who knows what.

Ramirez in the Wisconsin Court of Appeals District ll claiming that Waukesha County family court Judge Ralph Ramirez in February failed to vacate the April 9, 2020 erroneous custody and placement orders of her children that led for her ex-husband Ricardo Valadez to have full custody after he was deemed a domestic abuser with an alcoholic and drug addiction and claiming that he completed a certified treatment program aimed at combating domestic abuse or saw a certified batterer's treatment provider, which it was later discovered that he didn't comply with state law, but was awarded full custody of the four children while Julie objected.

In December 2021, the Wisconsin Court of Appeals District ll found on appeal by Julie that indeed Waukesha County family court Judge Michael J. Aprahamian erred at least five times and reverse and remanded all his illegal acts.

Judge Aprahamian was forced to remove himself from the divorce case after Julie under state law filed for substitution of judge and Judge Ramirez was assigned the case.

Judge Ramirez in February 2022 failed to follow the Wisconsin Court of Appeals decision to reverse and remand Judge Aprahamian's erroneous decisions that took away Julie's custody of her four children. Judge Ramirez stayed the illegal custody and placement of her children until March 25, 2022 and was considering a new trial and fact finding hearings, which according to the Supervisory Writ by the petition, state law doesn't allow it.

According to the Supervisory Writ, "The trial court (presiding Judge Ramirez) intends to violate its plain duty to follow the mandate of the Court of Appeals by

holding a new trial and taking new evidence prior to reconsideration of the reversed orders...Holding another trial following reversal on appeal will result in extraordinary hardship to Julie and will undermine this Court's appellate authority."

In conclusion, "Petitioner Julie C. Valadez respectfully requests that this Court (WI Vourt of Appeals) issue a supervisory writ ordering the Waukesha County Circuit Court to vacate the April 9, 2020 custody and placement orders and all subsequent orders related to custody and placement and to issue new orders based on the evidence that was presented at trial prior to the April 9, 2020 custody and placement orders, and prohibiting the Waukesha County Circuit Court from proceeding with a new trial or fact-finding hearing in Case No. 2018-FA-296."

"Petitioner has satisfied all of the requirements for granting the requested writ. The circuit court's lack of permission to hold a new trial is plain under Wisconsin Statutes section 808.08 and this Court's mandate in Appeal No. 2020AP1006, and it is clear that the circuit court intends to proceed notwithstanding that limitation. It is self-evident that Petitioner will suffer an extraordinary hardship if the writ is not issued, because she will have to undergo the expense of another trial and yet more delays to justice being done in this case. An appeal is not an adequate remedy because the circuit court's actions undermine this Court's authority and a circuit court's clear duty to comply with a mandate from the court of appeals. Finally, Petitioner has acted promptly and speedily in seeking relief from this Court," the filed petition of Supervisory Writ states.

Update: On March 17, 2022, the Wisconsin Court of Appeals II denied Julie Valadez filing of the Petition of Supervisory Writ for certain reasons. The three appeals judge panel with two denying the supervisory writ and a third writing the descent say, "We deny the writ petition because Valadez has not shown the circuit court’s violation of a plain legal duty. Valadez does not point to any statute or rule establishing the type of non-discretionary duty for which this court has historically granted a supervisory writ. She cites no authority for her proposition that a circuit court cannot take new evidence when reconsidering an earlier discretionary decision that was reversed on appeal under the proper legal standard, especially after the judge presiding over the original hearing has been substituted." (Page 2) 

Judge Shelley A. Crogan in the dissenting opinion wrote, "It is undisputed that Ricardo Valadez engaged in a pattern of domestic abuse. The first circuit court5 made that finding. Despite that finding, the first circuit court gave Ricardo6 sole custody of all four of the Valadez children. In other words, the first circuit court did exactly what the law said it could not do. The first circuit court also failed to make the safety of Julie and the children the paramount concern in determining custody and placement, which the law required it to do. Julie then waited from May 2020 until December 29, 2021 for this court to recognize that her family was subjected to an unlawful judgment—a judgment that WIS. STAT. § 767.41(2)(d)1 says was contrary to the best interest of these children and that likewise did not comply with WIS. STAT. § 767.41(5)(bm)." 

"When this court said that the judgment was unlawful and reversed it—a decision we based on statutes that say the circuit court cannot give custody to the abuser because doing so is contrary to the best interest of the children and that the safety of Julie and the children must be the paramount concern regarding custody and placement under these circumstances—the new circuit court should have vacated that judgment and returned to the custody and placement order that was in place before the unlawful judgment was entered. The majority says our December 2021 decision reversing the judgment was not specific enough for us to now conclude that the new circuit court violated a plain legal duty. The majority says our decision did not specifically direct the new circuit court to vacate the judgment and return to the prior order. I disagree. We reversed the judgment because the first circuit court granted custody and physical placement in clear violation of the law. There is no other option except to vacate that judgment and return the parties to the position they were in before the first circuit court acted unlawfully.7 By failing to do so, the new circuit court keeps in place a judgment that this court said violates the law. It keeps in place a reversed judgment that, according to WIS. STAT. § 767.41(2)(d)1, is contrary to the best interest of the children. It likewise keeps in place a reversed judgment that was entered without making Julie and the children’s safety and well-being the most important factor in determining custody and placement as required by WIS. STAT. § 767.41(5)(bm). 

"Julie suffered injustice when the first circuit court failed to follow the law. She suffers again here not only because of the length of time it took for her June 2020 appeal but also because the new circuit court (and now the majority) determined that our December 2021 decision—reversing a judgment that violated the law—somehow did not sufficiently explain to the new circuit court that it should not allow a judgment that violated the law to remain in effect upon remand. Now, Julie must wait again and hope that the new circuit court properly applies the domestic abuse custody and placement statutes, which exist to protect her and her children. And, if the new circuit court, like the first circuit court, fails to do so, she will likely have to wait at least another year to receive a second appellate decision. (Pages 5 & 6) 

"I would also note that the denial of this writ does not prohibit the circuit court from deciding to vacate the reversed judgment and return the parties to the position they were in before the erroneous custody and placement decision occurred. Doing so would certainly be consistent with our December 2021 decision.8 

"I would grant the writ and order relief and therefore respectfully dissent." (Page 7) 

Footnote: 8 The circuit court’s brief argues that the costs Julie incurred are insufficient to constitute grave hardship. But in addition to the costs Julie never would have incurred had the first circuit court simply followed the law, the grave hardship she suffered goes far beyond any dollar amount. In trying to right the wrong that would not have occurred if the domestic abuse custody and placement statutes had been followed, Julie lost precious time with her four children. This lost time is irreparable. She will never get that time back. And, an appeal after more lost time certainly is not an adequate remedy. As evidenced by the need to file this petition, her first appeal did not provide adequate relief. She won on appeal and still does not have custody months after our December 2021 decision. She is still subject to an unlawful custody and placement judgment. Moreover, by the time this case is resolved in the circuit court and this court hears a potential second appeal, some of her children may be adults.

Trump MAGAs Mario Herrera, aka, "La Maria" And Dawn Perez Maldonado, aka, "La Convicta" From Wisconsin Support Putin's Russian Military Invasion Of Ukraine

Putin's military regime has gained two MAGA Trump sympathizers who are using their fake Facebook accounts to sellout the U.S. and Ukraine, according to Russian intelligence sources.

Russia - Both Trump MAGA political failed pundits Mario Herrera, aka "La Maria", "La Mari" and Dawn Perez Maldonado, aka, "La Convicta" from Milwaukee have allegedly endorsed Putin's military regime and support the Ukraine invasion by Russia, Zorillo Network has learned.

It seems that Herrera and Maldonado are attempting to profit from Putin's invasion of Ukraine and are hoping Putin in return invest some blood money resources to help Trump lunch another campaign to get reelected in 2024.

Herrera and Maldonado are know pathological liars and Trump MAGA political failed pundits in Wisconsin who created a failed MAGA Facebook account and website to spread lies and mistruths about Latinos and other minorities. Both Herrera and Maldonado are allegedly associated with domestic neo-Nazi groups and White nationalist MAGA insurrectionists, according to the U.S. Federal Homeland National Security Agency and the Trump Space Force.

Herrera and Maldonado allegedly created a fake real estate scam that attempted to sell real estate in Mars, the Trump Space Force leaked classified documents revealed. The Herrera and Maldonado real estate scam failed after it was later learned that no one can actually get to Mars in their life span.

Herrera is the former Hispanic Outreach Director of the Republican Party of Wisconsin. Herrera resigned from the Republican Party of Wisconsin shortly after the failed re-election campaign of former Governor Scott Walker (R).

Maldonado is the founder and operator of Bylyngo Translating and Interpreting LLC in Milwaukee. Bylyngo LLC, seems to depend on the same clientele for business that Trump was attempting to deport in his first term, with anti-immigrant policies. Trump was defeated in the November 2020 Presidential Election by Joe Biden (D).

Zorillo Network previously reported that in 2000, Maldonado pleaded guilty/no contest to two misdemeanor criminal counts of theft/false presentation of up to $1,000 each count, according to Racine County court records.
