It’s a funny thing, isn’t it? Some people get into a bit of hot water. Maybe they lose their job in a very public way. And what’s their next big move? They decide to capitalize on their scandal in cheap and dishonest attempts to extend their “notoriety.”
It makes you wonder. Do they think we all forgot what happened? Or do they just hope to make a quick buck from the fuss? Most Americans would rather see them in a prison jumpsuit, rather than on TV talk shows. Well, it seems we have a new author in town, ready to share her “wisdom” with the world.
Meet Tiffany Henyard. She used to be the “super mayor” in Dolton, Illinois. After a rocky time in office, she was shown the door by voters. Now, she’s trying to sell a “tell-all” book called “Standing on Business.” The price for this self-published gem? A whopping $99! As one person online put it, “Still trying to hustle money!”
A Legacy of Questions, Not Answers
This book deal comes as Ms. Henyard still has a few clouds hanging over her head. She recently had to go to court. This was about a lawsuit saying she didn’t share public records like she was supposed to. When asked questions, Ms. Henyard chose to “plead the Fifth.” That means she used her right not to say anything that might get her into trouble.
The FBI also looked into possible money troubles in Dolton while she was mayor. She was never charged with a crime. But investigators did want to know more about how money was spent. It sure makes you think about what kind of “real story” will be in a $99 book when questions in court went unanswered.
The People Aren’t Buying It (Literally)
It seems regular citizens aren’t too thrilled about this new book either. They remember her time as mayor. They remember reports of lots of spending. The village’s bank account reportedly dropped from over $5 million to a $3.6 million deficit under her watch.
From ‘Fox News’:
However, the former mayor’s constituents appeared less than pleased, taking their opinions online to voice their skepticism of Henyard’s latest business venture.
“Still trying to hustle money!” one commenter said in the Dolton Politics Facebook Page.
“Michelle Obama’s bestseller was cheaper than this mess,” another poster wrote. “The unmitigated gal!”
This isn’t the first time Ms. Henyard has promised big things. She once started a podcast to spill “The Tea,” but only one episode ever appeared. She also once threatened that her opponents would be arrested, but that never happened either.
Spinning the Narrative
Ms. Henyard says her book will talk about “real-life political warfare, betrayal, and the unwavering ambition to rise above it all.” Her lawyer has called the troubles she faced a “smear campaign.” It sounds like she wants to paint herself as a hero who fought tough battles.
But many just see a politician who faced serious accusations of mismanaging taxpayer money and avoiding accountability. Now, after being forced out of office, she wants people to pay a high price for her version of events. It’s quite a story, alright – a story of nerve, if nothing else.
Our country was built on honesty and taking care of what’s entrusted to you. When public trust is broken, trying to sell a pricey book about it feels less like “standing on business” and more like a final, desperate gimmick. Patriots know that true leadership is about service, not self-promotion, especially when the facts speak for themselves.
Key Takeaways
- A disgraced former mayor attempting to sell a $99 self-published book shows a stunning lack of shame.
- Public officials should face accountability, not try to profit by rewriting their controversial pasts.
- This incident highlights a disturbing pattern of some politicians disregarding taxpayer concerns for personal gain.
- True leadership emphasizes service and integrity, a stark contrast to monetizing notoriety.
