Bathroom conference

 The world of coincidence seems impossible. As Shanika and Kadizzle headed in his urban diesel down from the mountain Kadizzle pointed out the land he thought the City of Payson should acquire from the Apache Tribe. Payson could swap some land and add land to the wonderful park they have in Green Valley. 

The other day when Kadizzle took another friend to the casino he decided to visit the Chief and discuss his idea. The Apache Chief has a delux office on the reservation next to the casino. While the friend was getting her pockets cleaned at the casino Kadizzle went to the tribal headquarters and asked to speak to the Chief. The Chief was tied up in a meeting, but his brother was sitting there and the receptionist said Kadizzle might talk to him. The brother seemed like a large lump of brown clay in a drug induced stupor and Kadizzle did not find that worthwhile. The receptionist summoned the secretary of the Chief. After some pleasantries Kadizzle said something about the Trump infestation in Payson. Shocked, Kadizzle almost passed out when the Chief's secretary said the tribe was for Trump. This is insane. It is like slaves supporting slavery.  Mrs. Secretary gave Kadizzle the run around and did not show much interest in accomplishing anything. 

Kadizzle left the tribal headquarters feeling there was something crooked about the whole Apache administration. It just had that mafia feel. 

So back to the trip down the mountain to take Shanika to the casino to get his pockets cleaned. At the casino Kadizzle went to the restroom. Entering the restroom he noticed the janitor's closet was open and there was a hundred dollar bill hanging on the door waiting to be stolen. The janitor was cleaning the restroom. Kadizzle engaged the janitor in the restroom mentioning the fake 100 dollar bill. Somehow the conversation continued. The janitor soon revealed he was the former tribal chairman and in essence the Chief.  Janitor had lost an election to the current crooked chief.  The janitor told me the FBI is investigating the current chief and his gang. We spoke for awhile and Kadizzle related how he had a Native American friend in North Dakota who he helped try to stamp out the tribal thievery going on there. 

As Kadizzle left the restroom he was bedazzled by the coincidence of meeting the former chief entirely by a chance encounter. Kadizzle was amazed about his intuition when he formally spoke to the secretary of the current Chief. 

The situation is tragic. Many Native Americans are living in dire poverty. Their main source of income whether it is oil or casinos is being misused by none other than the other tribal members. Since the tribes are sovereign nations it makes it very hard for the FBI to intervene. Top it all off with the close knit societies these people live in. In North Dakota Kadizzle heard from his Indian friend how the intimidation worked. In Arizona apparently the same game was going on.  When an Indian Tribe like the Apache tells you they admire Trump you have a major clue about their state of mind.
