Scoutmaster Ryan M. Antcsak, Candidate For 8th Aldermanic District Indefinitely Suspended From Boy Scouts Of America Over Political Flyer Stapled On Scouts Troop 11 Recruitment Letter In Milwaukee

Antcsak claims that two candidates that he is running against in the Aldermanic 8th District and Milwaukee County Supervisor District 12th led to his indefinite Scoutmaster position suspension, possibly ending in termination from the Boy Scouts of America Troop 11 leadership role in Milwaukee.

By H. Nelson Goodson 
Hispanic News Network U.S.A.

March 29, 2024

Milwaukee, Wisconsin - On Thursday, Ryan M. Antcsak, a former Milwaukee County House of Corrections officer and a former Republican candidate for the State Assembly on social media (Facebook) claimed that he was indefinitely suspended from his Scoutmaster leadership position in the Boy Scouts Troop 11 in Milwaukee. Antcsak says that he had dedicated 23 years of his life to the Boy Scouts of America and on Thursday he learned of his suspension by a letter from the Boy Scouts Council notifying him of his indefinite suspension.

Antcsak also says that his suspension could possibly lead to termination. Apparently, Antcsak stapled his current political campaign flyer for Alderman to the Boy Scout Troop 11 recruitment letter and then, the Boy Scout Council allegedly received many complaints from supporters of Milwaukee Alderwoman JoCasta Zamarripa who he is running against and from supporters of Milwaukee County Supervisor Juan Miguel Martinez who Antcsak is running against as a write-in candidate. 

The Boy Scouts of America political policy: The Boy Scouts of America must not, through its governing body or through any of its officers, chartered councils, Scouters, or members, involve Scouting in political matters. However, this must not be interpreted to prevent the teaching of ideals of patriotism and good citizenship as required to fulfill the Boy Scouts of America's purpurse.

Antcsak was not allowed to be on the Milwaukee County Supervisor ballot for the 12th District because he wrote on his nomination papers that he was running as a Republican, both the Milwaukee County Supervisor and City of Milwaukee Aldermanic election races are non-partisan.

The Milwaukee County and City elections are on Tuesday, April 2, 2024. If Antcsak is defeated in both the Supervisor and Aldermanic races, he will allegedly be without a job.

Full Antcsak Facebook video post about his indefinite suspension from the Boy Scouts of America at link: https://youtu.be/VSrOvs9t9gM

In 2012, the MSJ reported that Scoutmaster Antcsak's Troop 11 were wearing a racist deemed patch showing a family running (crossing a road), which went viral and the Boy Scouts of America ordered for Troop 11 (used Troop 11 Border Patrol) to remove the racist patch. Antcsak said at the time that his Troop 11 would use and keep the label Border Patrol.

No Planned César E. Chávez Day 2024 Observance At City Hall In Milwaukee, Nor At Southside Chávez Placita

No César E. Chávez Day (Birthday) observance and celebration planned at City Hall in the City of Milwaukee, nor at the Chávez life-size bronze statue location on the Chávez BID 38!

By H. Nelson Goodson 
Hispanic News Network U.S.A.

March 29, 2024

Milwaukee, Wisconsin - The 9th annual César E. Chávez Birthday observation at City Hall in City of Milwaukee is not scheduled to be celebrated due to the Chávez Birthday falling on Easter Sunday, March 31, 2024. 

Many offices at City Hall will be closed on Good Friday, March 29, 2024.

Hispanic News Network U.S.A. (HNNUSA) checked any available news (press releases) mentioning, if the Chávez observance would take place at City Hall and apparently no info has been released by Milwaukee Common Council President, Alderman Jóse G. Pérez, and the City Clerk's Office including the Cavalier Johnson Mayor's Office.

Last year, the Chávez Birthday observance was announced a few days before Chávez's Birthday after HNNUSA reported that no information was available, if City Hall would officially observe the Chávez Birthday celebration.

9 years ago, the Milwaukee Common Council spear headed by Alderman Pérez led the approval of an optional Chávez Holiday for the City of Milwaukee employees.

Also, their is no planned Chávez Birthday celebration at the Chávez Placita where a $50,000 bronze life-size Chávez statue is located at the 900 block of S. César E. Chávez Drive in the Southside of Milwaukee.

The Chávez life-size bronze statue is located in the property of Supermercado El Rey.

Milwaukee's Southside became the 8th location in the nation and the 1st city in the Midwest to unveil a Chávez life-size bronze statue in 2016.

The United Farm Workers (UFW) union leader Cesár E. Chávez would have been celebrating his 98th Birthday on March 31, 2024, if alive. Chávez passed away in 1993 at the age of 66.

Chávez, a military veteran from California was well known for his Mexican-American Civil Rights movement nationally including Wisconsin in the late 1960's and early 1970's during the boycott of grapes campaign that later led for Latino (Mexican-Americans) farm workers to earn better wages and better housing conditions for migrant farm workers.

Recently, the Milwaukee County Transit System installed a César E. Chávez commemorative bus stop shelter at the 800 block of S. César E. Chávez Drive.

A second Chávez Dr. bus shelter is located at W. Greenfield Ave. and S. Chávez Dr..

March 26, 2024

Havana, Cuba - At least 72% of the population in Cuban live in poverty and 21% live under the poverty level and forego breakfast, lunch and dinner due to a lack of earning an affordable living wage attributed to a large scale of unemployment in the Island, unless a person is working for the Cuban government and is a loyalist to the regime in political power.

Those living in poverty in Cuban receive a piece of bread for each individual in a household.

Hispanic News Network U.S.A. (HNNUSA) received a leaked photo from Cuba showing the actual piece of bread, that each person receives from the Cuban regime, according to sources inside Cuba.

Cuban loyalists including government workers and military with the Cuban regime receive better supplies of food available to them. Also, those working in Cuban tourist attractions get better food and a sort of income.

A 2023 study by the Cuban Observatory of Human Rights (OCDH), estimated 88% of the population is living in extreme poverty. (Wikipedia)

TikToker Father Adam Kotas Laicized By Catholic Pope Francis For Allegedly Warning Public Of Pedophile Clergy At Places Of Worship

The Archdiocese of Las Vegas released a letter in early March saying that Father Kotas was laicized by Pope Francis with no possibility of appeal, but Kotas in a personal video claims that he was laicized because he warned the public about the pedophile clergy that is lurking to sexually assault unsuspecting children attending parishes and places of religious worship.

By H. Nelson Goodson 
Hispanic News Network U.S.A.

March 24, 2024

Las Vegas, Nevada - On March 1st, the Archdiocese of Las Vegas posted a one page letter in English and another in Spanish to announced that Catholic Pope Francis has decided to laicized (remove from priesthood, including all privileges) Father Adam F. Kotas, 39, and Kotas was also prohibited from appealing Pope Francis's decision. The letter about Kotas's laicization from Archbishop George Leo Thomas didn't include any reference (reasons) why Kotas was laicized by Pope Francis. (Letter post link: https://www.lvcatholic.org/news/letter-regarding-mr-adam-kotas)

But, Kotas in a personal video in social media (TikToK, Facebook and YouTube) says, that he was laicized for simply warning the public about the pedophile clergy lurking to sexually assault children in parishes and places of religious worship. He told his social media followers to protect their unsuspecting children from the pedophile clergy, which apparently the Roman Catholic Church clergy at Vatican City didn't like to be exposed due to its mishandling of hundreds of pedophile priest cases and multimillion settlement lawsuits with victims who were sexually assaulted by pedophile Catholic priests. (Kotas video: https://youtu.be/uZAPZ6PD09A)

Kotas Facebook page has more than 3.7M followers and is popular priest in Las Vegas for his candid and comical (humor) way to preach in his Adam Kotas ministries media. Follow Kotas on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adamkotass

The March 1, 2024 Archdiocese of Las Vegas posted letter says, "The Archdiocese of Las Vegas has received notification from the Diocese of Santa Rosa in California of the involuntary laicization of Mr. Adam Kotas, formerly of the Diocese of Santa Rosa, who briefly served in Las Vegas. This process was handled through the Diocese of Santa Rosa, where Mr. Kotas was incardinated as a priest. This laicization was approved by His Holiness, Pope Francis (in December 2023) and has no possibility of appeal."

"Laicization means that all rights and privileges associated with the priesthood have been removed, and that the individual has returned to the lay state. Although the Sacrament of Holy Orders imprints an indelible character on the soul of the priest which empowers him to administer the sacraments, the laicized priest is prohibited from celebrating Mass or the other sacraments.

"Moreover, Mr. Kotas is prohibited from using the title "Father" (referring to a Catholic priest) or wearing clerical attire.

"Adam Kotas is no longer a priest in the Catholic Church.

"All sacraments celebrated by Mr. Kotas in the "Polish National Church" are presumed tobe either invalid or illicit by the Catholic Church, and anything done by Mr. Kotas following his laicization are considered invalid or ilicit by the Catholic Church."

Charla (Discussion) With 1960's-1970's Civil Rights Activists Ernesto Chacon And Jesús Salas At The WHSF/Mexican Fiesta 2024 Celebration Of UFW Union Leader César E. Chávez In Milwaukee

Jesús Salas and Ernesto Chacon discussed the 1960's-1970's Civil Rights movement in Milwaukee connected to the late United Farm Worker's Union, César E. Chávez.

March 20, 2024

Milwaukee,  Wisconsin - On Thursday, March 20, 2024, the Wisconsin Hispanic Scholarship Foundation, Inc. (Mexican Fiesta) held its annual César E. Chávez celebration at the Flores Hall honoring the late United Farm Worker's Union leader and his farmer worker's civil rights movement. http://hispanicnewsnetwork.blogspot.com/2024/01/recap-3-day-mexican-fiesta-economic.html

The César E. Chávez national holiday is celebrated on March 31th.

Also, two book authors Jesús Salas and Antonio Guajardo were at the annual Chávez celebration to distribute their books during a signing session. Salas authored "Obreros Unidos" and Guajardo, the "Mexican Fiesta Milwaukee" history in Milwaukee. Both Ernesto Chacon and Salas are well known for their leadership in the late 1960's to early 1970's that involved peaceful protests for farm worker's rights and engaged in protests that included sit-ins to get access to higher education for Latinos at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) on August 27, 1970 at UWM Chapman Hall chancellor's office that sought to bring down the barriers of the blatant discrimination practices that kept Latinos from enrolling at the University. Their success to bring down the barriers of discrimination at UWM led for thousands of Latinos in Milwaukee and the State of Wisconsin to graduate with university degrees and the creation of the Spanish Speaking Outreach Institute, later renamed the Roberto Hernández Center at UWM. https://youtu.be/FzOpOxI_GKw

Chacon and Salas held a Charla (discussion) with Civil Rights Activists that helped shape and influenced change in Wisconsin and led to the enforcement of existing Wisconsin Farm Worker's laws and the acceptance (enrollment) of Latinos at UWM.

A historical exhibition of photos from the Lucha por La Justicia by David Giffey were displayed at the Flores Hall.

A photo exhibit of the late Arturo Martinez and Gregorio Montoto in remembrance of the two former WHSF executive Board members was also displayed on Thursday at the Flores Hall. The exhibit of the late Martinez and Montoto was created by Margarita Sandoval Skare and Mexican Fiesta.

SB 78 Bill Allowing DACA Recipients To Be Appointed As Law Enforcement Officers In Wisconsin Died In The Senate Organization Committee

The Wisconsin Senate Bill 78 that would allow DACA recipients to become sworn law enforcement officers died in the Senate Organization Committee.

By H. Nelson Goodson 
Hispanic News Network U.S.A.

March 19, 2024

Madison, Wisconsin - Last week, the Wisconsin State Senate ended its session allowing Wisconsin State Senate Bill 78/Assembly Bill 51 to died in the Wisconsin Senate Committee. SB 78, if passed by the State Senate would have allowed for certain legally present aliens (DACA recipients) to be appointed as law enforcement officers in State. https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/2023/proposals/sb78

Unfortunately, SB 78 was referred to the State Senate Organization Committee in February 20 where it died.

Wisconsin State Senator Tim Carpenter (D-Milw), one of the co-sponsors of the bill when contacted by Hispanic News Network U.S.A. (HNNUSA) on Wednesday, Carpenter confirmed that the Senate GOP killed SB 78 bill when it wasn't added to the last day of the Senate session on March 12.

Also a second DACA bill, AB 822 (SB 826) relating to allow DACA recipients of referred action under the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program to become eligible to receive occupational licenses in Wisconsin failed to be approved in the State Assembly, which the bill died after the State Assembly session ended on February 22, 2024. https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/2023/proposals/ab822

The Wisconsin State legislature is controlled by the Republicans and some Trump MAGA loyalists, which most are anti-immigrant, despite DACA recipients pay taxes and undocumented immigrants in Wisconsin pay more 5han $90M in combined taxes per year.

Currently, undocumented immigrants are prohibited from applying for driver licenses as a safety measure for safe roads.

The hypocrisy: Wisconsin and Mexico have a trade agreement totalling more than $6.1B, which benefits Wisconsin with 92,500 jobs supported by trade with Mexico and 4,942 jobs supported by Mexican companies totalling 97,442 jobs. But today, the Wisconsin Republican/MAGA controlled legislature won't allow for Mexican nationals in the State to drive safe by allowing them to apply for driver licenses or permits.

Fact: The Wisconsin and Mexico trade agreement totaled more than $6.1B in 2019 (Report 2020,  Embassy of Mexico in the U.S. - Economic Affairs Office), with Mexico importing goods to the State of more than $2.8B, and Wisconsin exporting more than $3.3B to Mexico. https://embamex.sre.gob.mx/eua/images/stories/economicos/tradebystate/2020/WISCONSIN.pdf

Trump MAGA Cult National Convention (RNC 2024) In July Not Welcome In Milwaukee

The VISIT Milwaukee is expecting 50,000 RNC Convention attendees in July, which a majority will be Trump extreme far right MAGA cult loyalists who want to create a facist dictatorship in the U.S..

By H. Nelson Goodson 
Hispanic News Network U.S.A.

March 19, 2024

Milwaukee, Wisconsin - The Trump MAGA Political Convention 2024, also primarily known as the Republican National Convention will take place in Milwaukee on July 15 - 18, 2024 and is expected to attract at least 50,000 attendees with an economic impact to the local economy of at least $200M (according to VISIT Milwaukee, it will have direct, indirect and induced spending in the City), which a majority are expected to be extreme far right Make Amerikkka Great Again (MAGA) cult fanatics that plan to created a facist dictatorship led government in the U.S..

The RNC Convention 2024 is being organized and operated by the Republican National Committee, which has been overrun by MAGAs after dozens of RNC staff workers were fired and replace by MAGAs (Trump loyalists) shortly after North Carolina GOP Chair Michael Whatley was elected Chair of the RNC and Lara Trump as co-chair in early March. Lara is Trump's daughter-in-law.

The shakeup at the RNC has actually replaced the traditional Republican conservative political ideology following for the extreme far right MAGA cult ideology that has poisoned America with its hate and anti-immigrant rhetoric including the "Big Lie", that the 2020 Presidential election was stolen leading to the January 6, 2021 insurrection attempt of D.C. by MAGAs and White supremacy militias in the guise of calling themselves Patriots.

Donald J. Trump who was ordered to pay more than $500M in liability in several lawsuits will be the Republican nominee for U.S. President in 2024. Today, Trump is facing at least 91 criminal charges in four criminal cases.

When Trump was President, he had the worst economy in U.S. historic when he mishandled the COVID-19 crisis and led to a nationwide economic shutdown, which many businesses went out of business.

The White MAGA cult, especially the Latino MAGAs in Wisconsin including those throughout the nation have been successful in spreading anti-immigrant hate rhetoric that has poisoned the ignorant minds of the uneducated MAGAs and divided America over ethnic differences, color of skin and culture.

The City of Milwaukee is predominately a Democrat voting stronghold, which Latinos and Blacks were instrumental in 2020, in electing Joe Biden (D) U.S. President, which Biden immediately led the U.S. to recover from the COVID-19 worst economic crisis under Trump and the country continues to strive economically today with under 4% of unemployment under the Biden administration. 

According to Biden dot com, 2024 will be a choice between two very different economic visions for America: President Biden is working to lower costs and build the economy from the bottom up and middle out to give everyone a fair shot at the American Dream, while Donald Trump is focused on rigging the economy for himself and his ultra-wealthy friends.

After Donald Trump left office with the worst jobs record since the Great Depression, President Biden is building our economy from the bottom up and middle out – and he's made enormous progress. Nearly 15 million new jobs, unemployment below 4% for two full years – the longest stretch in half a century, inflation falling, and wages, wealth, and employment are higher now than they were before the pandemic. 

Wisconsin is known as a Purple State and Tony Evers (D) is the Governor, but the State legislature has been controlled over a decade by Republicans/MAGAs with Gerrymandering district maps, which were deemed unconstitutional and recently Governor Evers signed into law the fair maps bill with the support of the majority of the GOP legislature and one Wisconsin State Assembly Democrat Sylvia Ortiz-Velez from Milwaukee and one Wisconsin State Senate Democrat Robert W. Wirch from Somers, thus triggering the end of the GOP Gerrymandering maps. The rest of the Democrats in the State Assembly and State Senate didn't support fair maps and voted "no", with the exception of Wisconsin State Representative Marisabel Cabrera (D-Milw) who was absent and didn't vote for fair maps.

One thing for sure, the RNC and the Trump MAGA cult are not welcome in Milwaukee and planned protests will take place during the 3-day RNC Convention.

Most likely, the after effect of the RNC Convention in Milwaukee will linger on, especially for those vendors eager to tap into their share of the expected $200M MAGA economic impact in the City, which these local vendors will continue to do business, but most likely after the Convention MAGAs return to their own cities, villages and towns, Milwaukee and surrounding area vendors who supported the RNC will definitely pay the price when local Milwaukeeans boycott these vendors.

It is not wise, for local business owners, restaurant owners, nightclub owners and local vendors to publicly support the RNC and especially Trump when they depend and live off from the Latino and immigrant community in the Southside of Milwaukee. Because, these businesses and vendors support the very same individuals trying to create hate, divide families and destroy the livelihood of the striving Latino and immigrant community that also pays their fair share of taxes.

In Wisconsin, undocumented immigrants pay more than $90M in combined taxes to the State per year. (HNNUSA)

March 18, 2024

Milwaukee, Wisconsin - A Milwaukee County Court intake hearing is set for April 4, 2024 at 9:30 a.m., room 221 at the Safety Building for 5 University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) students who were cited for staging a peaceful sit-in protest at the chancellor's office at Chapman Hall on February 9th on campus. The students, Kayla N. Patterson, 21, Patricia L. Fish, 25, Audari Tamayo, 21, and Robert W. Knapp, 23, were cited for Assembly Blocking, Obstructing, Unauthorized Occupation, Prohibited Signs, Prohibited Noise (UWS 18.11(4)(a)), a non-traffic ordinance violation, which is a forfeiture (non-criminal fine) penalty, if found guilty. 

Nathanial P. Ramirez, 19, was also cited for resisting/obstructing an officer (UWS 18.10(7), a non-traffic ordinance violation, which is a forfeiture (non- criminal fine) penalty, if found guilty.

The students were among a diverse group of allies that included a total of at least 45 students led by the National Students for a Democratic Society, US Palestinian Community Network and the National Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression. The peaceful sit-in protest was part of an organized action taken at the UWM campus led by Students for a Democratic Society at UWM (SDSUWM), student organization.

The students wanted to meet with UWM Chancellor Mark A. Mone, but he was not in. So, Adam Jussel, the Dean of Students at UWM met with the protesters after they gained access to Chapman Hall, which was closed in anticipation of the protest. 

At least 10 different police departments in the area including the UWM police and Milwaukee Police responded to the scene and prohibited the protesters from using the bathroom at Chapman Hall and were confined to a upper hall.

Tamayo, the Co-chair of the SDSUWM posted the following narrative on the SDSUWM Facebook page describing what transpired on February 9th claiming that law enforcement committed multiple abusive actions against students detained during the sit-in and that Jussel including the UWM administration had lied about what actually occurred. (Tamayo's narrative (video) of events at link: https://tinyurl.com/2aymusvh)

The students on February 26th met with Chancellor Mone at the Student Union and their demands were released to Mone, they are demanding for UWM to divest from weapons manufacturers, halting study-abroad trips to occupied Palestine, and changing the name of the Golda Meir Library including the removal of all monuments of her on campus.

The SDSUWM is inviting the community to the court intake hearing on April 4th and has launched a campaign for people to contact the chancellor's office at UWM and Milwaukee County District Attorney's Office to drop the citations against the 5 students from UWM.

Palestinians And Allies Stage Protest Against Biden In Milwaukee For Allowing Israel To Engage In Genocide With U.S. Military Aid

Biden, the U.S. Congress and Israel complicit in the Palestinian genocide of unarmed civilians and children in the GAZA over $524B in oil and natural gas reserves along the coastline.

Milwaukee, Wisconsin - Hundreds of Palestinians and allies staged a protest, March and rally on March 13, 2024 against U.S. President Joe Biden (D), the U.S. Congress for funding billions of taxpayers dollars of military aid to the Zionist government in Israel to continue the massacre (genocide) of thousands of unarmed Palestinians and children in the GAZA. Video link: https://youtu.be/2uUvR-Ukdao

Biden was in downtown Milwaukee to announce a $3.3B investment for projects in 42 states including Milwaukee that will trigger economic growth by reconnecting disadvantage communities to a future of prosperity, according to Biden.

Facts: The U.S. Congress doesn't add stipulations to foreign taxpayer aid in order to restrict funding for only to be use for development and economic growth of a nation, which would prohibit use of foreign funding from being used to buy weapons of mass destruction (missles/bombs) to commit genocide and massacre of unarmed civilians and children.

Israel is not required to repay the U.S. for its military aid either.

War crimes by U.S. President Joe Biden (D) (also former presidents), the U.S. Congress and Israel have been condemned by multiple free World governments and nations. A lack of accountability by many governments exists today, which there's no form of humane justice to identify and prosecute those who are complicit in the genocide of people due to greed and money generated by profit at the expense of an ethnic group who also has a right to live without fear of being murdered for profit.

The GAZA coast line has a rich gas reserve totalling billions of dollars, which Israel and the U.S. have vested interest not to share the natural gas energy resources with the Palestinians in the GAZA.

There are huge fields of oil and gas under the sea 22 miles off the coast of Gaza. It is worth an estimated $524 billion and belongs to Gaza and the Palestinians. (Quora dot com)

Alejandro Casas, aka, El Divo 956 Banned From The Alamo Flea Market For Allowing Male Patrons To Place Dollars On His Waistband While He Femininly Danced


Casas was kicked out from La Pulga de Alamo (Alamo Flea Market) after someone complained that he was allowing other men to place dollars on his waistband while he danced in a feminine style at the outdoor dance hall area.

Alamo, Texas - On the last weekend of February, Alejandro Casas, 59, aka, El Divo 956 of McAllen was escorted out from the outdoor Alamo Dance Hall of La Pulga de Alamo (Alamo Flea Market) and banned from having men place dollars on his waistband while dancing, according to Casas. Apparently, someone complained that Casas was dancing in a feminine way at the dance hall and men were placing dollars on his waistband. At no time did Casas commit any inappropriate behavior deemed scandalous, sexual in nature, nor did he strip in front of the crowd including children.

The Pulga del Alamo doesn't not have any policy to ban LGBTQ members from the surrounding communities for wearing their personal choice of dress attire and enjoying their lifestyle while in public without bothering anyone.

At the Pulga del Alamo dance hall, there are no signs defining rules of conduct for flea market patrons, nor a required dress code at the dance hall where entertainment is provided other than "no drinking" allowed in the dance floor.

During the weekend, hundreds of local people and from other nearby communities gathered at the flea market for bargains and to enjoy live band music entertainment, which also attracts other individuals that express their own social media popular personalities including their style of dancing to the pulga cumbia music. Most of these individuals post short videos showing them dancing the pulga cumbia style on FB pages.

Casas in his Alejandro Casas El Divo 956 Original Facebook (FB) page, says that he felt discriminated by personnel, security and one of the flea market owners and is now seeking legal advice to determine,  whether he will file a discriminatory civil lawsuit against the Alamo Flea Market for discriminating against him, since he claims that he didn't do anything wrong (illegal). https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTL86yoMt/

Casas who enjoys to entertain the public at different venues as his own stage personality El Divo 956 has a large following of fans who go see him dance at the Pulga del Alamo and at other flea market events.

A new cumbia song by Mister Cumbia was written about Casas too and was recently released in social media!
