Desperate men do desperate things, and North Miami Beach Criminal Commissioner Michael Joseph is a very desperate man.

So desperate, in fact, that he’s pulled out the same manipulative bag of “anonymous” tricks he played two years ago in the hopes that this time his deception will work.

Michael is one Commission vote away from losing everything.

Literally, everything.

If Criminal Commissioner Paule Villard loses her seat to challenger Jay Chernoff, his gravy train will stop.

No more illegal taxpayer-funded vacations around the country.

No more illegal taxpayer-funded membership fees to the Haitian Lawyer’s Association, which his private law firm should be paying for — not NMB taxpayers.

No more illegal taxpayer-funded $977.25 trips to Washington, D.C. just to rub shoulders with the members of the Black Congressional Caucus.

If Jay Chernoff is elected, Michael will also have to start footing his own bill for his taxpayer funded $705.25 membership fees to 100 Black Men of South Florida and his $750.00 membership fees to the NAACP Hollywood Bureau.

Mind you, that’s Hollywood, California, not Hollywood, Florida.

Seems legit.

Despite the fact that before Michael was elected he was a Trump-voting libertarian, who sought the endorsement of a conservative coalition claiming to be pro-school choice, when he finally won his seat in 2018, he suddenly morphed into a hyper-partisan “Democrat.”

Michael Joseph is nothing but a chameleon.

And a desperate, race-baiting chameleon at that.

Michael is now reverting to the same manipulative diversionary tactics he used during his vicious 2020 campaign of bombarding North Miami Beach residents with text messages falsely accusing Jay and his supporters of being “racists” and “right-wing extremists.”  He even created a hate website repeating those exact same lies, all in the hopes of getting his co-conspirator Criminal Commissioner Paule Villard re-elected.

We unmasked Michael and his libertarian best friend, failed gubernatorial candidate Hector Roos, in 2020 as the team behind the “anonymous” smear campaign against Mayor Anthony DeFillipo and Commissioner Barbara Kramer.

Michael has now turned his malicious, sociopathic angst against Paule’s opponent, Jay Chernoff, as well as his arch nemesis, Mayor DeFillipo, out of sheer jealousy.

Although he is once again trying to stay in the shadows, he was humiliated, once again, when he was unmasked by North Miami Beach resident, and digital tech geek extraordinaire, Keith Myers.

In a November 13, 2022 email to Michael Joseph, with copies to city officials, residents and media, Keith wrote, “I feel compelled to call you out on your unethical behavior over the past 24 hours. We all suspected that you are the person responsible for sending multiple misleading text messages to residents of North Miami Beach to “ride the MAGA wave”. These text messages were worded in a way to imply that they were sent by Jay Chernoff while they were in fact sent by you and intended to inject false information and partisan politics into the North Miami Beach elections.”

Keith also told Michael that he knew he was the person who had been “false flagging posts that support Jay Chernoff” by North Miami Beach residents on the NextDoor social media app.

He exposed Michael as the perpetrator by revealing, “I know it is you behind this because, while it is not common knowledge, I am a member of NextDoor’s content moderation team. Reports of posts are generally anonymous EXCEPT for members of the moderation team, in which they are provided in the report. These posts are in no way a violation of any NextDoor policies, I assume an attorney like yourself should be able to understand the terms of service for an online platform like NextDoor. I am also curious as to how a post that commissioner Kramer made to show that Jay is in fact a registered democrat contains “Illegal content or activity”, especially as coming from an attorney.”

The remainder of Keith’s hard-hitting email is such a beautiful thing, we feel compelled to reprint it in its entirety [emphasis ours].

That being said, it’s important to remember exactly why Michael Joseph is willing to risk ethics violations and the potential loss of his license to practice law.

The City of North Miami Beach has become a literal cash cow for Michael and his three co-conspirators on the dais, as well as, and especially, their hand-picked City Manager Arthur “Duke” Sorey, who in turn, brought in his favorite North Miami vendors well known for “rewarding” elected and public officials who hire them.

In the last two years, they have voted for themselves three raises (two of them illegally passed), $20,000 in “discretionary funds,” 100% health insurance coverage for themselves and their dependents, and an additional $6,500 in non-accountable “expenses.”

On top of that, Duke gifted each of them with $15,000 from the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) of 2021, under the guise of “Community Engagement.”

Which Paule has been using to engage the community into re-electing her.

When she’s not stealing tens of thousands of your tax dollars to take expensive vacations in Las Vegas, Haiti, Phoenix, Denver, Salt Lake City, and Washington, D.C., that is.

So, yeah, Michael Joseph is a desperate man.

The re-election of Paule Villard is his golden ticket.

The only thing standing between him and his use of your tax dollars as his personal piggy bank is the election of Jay Chernoff for Commissioner of North Miami Beach.

While you will be stuck with the Devil on the Dais for another two years, Michael will no longer have the power of a four-Criminal vote to continue raping the public coffers for their personal use.

The only thing standing between NMB residents and a fiscally sound, ethically run government is Criminal Commissioner Paule Villard.

VOTE THIS CORRUPT CON ARTIST OUT OF NORTH MIAMI BEACH!

VOTE FOR JAY CHERNOFF ON NOVEMBER 22nd!
