Dear fellow tax hikers, if there's one thing you've learned from our site it's that it pays to be a friend or relative of either Tracy Winkler or Alex Triantafilou. Need a high-paying taxpayer funded job that you're completely unqualified to hold? No problemo, just be sure you are one of the Friends of Alex and Tracy (FAT).
Now we can add two more names to this lucky club! Please give your finest Republican for Higher Taxes welcome to our new friends Vince and Deb Wallace.
Recently, Clerk of Courts Tracy Winkler and her husband, His Honor Judge Ralph "Ted" Winkler went on vacation with their close friends Mr. and Mrs. Wallace. Upon return their return, Mr. and Mrs. Wallace cashed in big-time on the privileges of their FAT club membership.
Tracy hired Vince Wallace to the specially-created Chief Deputy of Operations where he'll pull down $68,585/year for his efforts. Not to be outdone, His Honor hired Deb Wallace to be his Courthouse Reporter. Even better, this hiring is a double-dipping deal. Mrs. Wallace had recently retired to start collecting her pension, and with the cooperation of His Honor Judge Winkler she will collect a salary too. She is now estimated to make over $98,000/year to be a glorified secretary.
Being a FAT has its rewards.
This type of behavior is nothing new to the sexy Gangnam Style Winklers. As everyone recalls, it was then-Green Township Trustee Tracy Winkler who hired Jennifer Triantafilou for a taxpayer-funded job that she was completely unqualified. This was done to curry favor with beloved Chairman Alex Triantafilou, and she wasted no time cashing in. Tracy was rewarded for this loyalty by being appointed Clerk of Courts.
Moved like these are the #1 reason we proudly endorsed Tracy Winkler for higher office. Not everyone can be a FAT, and membership has its benefits. It's not about serving the public, it's about serving your friends - with taxpayer money.

Jennifer Triantafilou for Ohio Supreme Court
Dear fellow tax hikers, there will soon be a vacancy on the Ohio Supreme Court and our beloved Chairman Alex Triantafilou will be on the committee helping Governor John Kasich decide on the appointed replacement. We already have our chosen candidate.
We endorse Jennifer Triantafilou to be the next Ohio Supreme Court Justice. Mrs. Triantafilou is extremely well-qualified for this position. We now present her qualifications:
- High School graduate.
- Works as a secretary.....we mean administrative assistant.
- Married to Alex Triantafilou. <-------- Over here, it's this one!
Tracy Winkler saw these same attributes in her as we did when she chose Jennifer for a taxpayer-funded Green Township job where she did not meet minimum professional qualifications. As Tracy herself knows, professional qualifications do not apply when you marry into the right family.
If Mrs. Triantafilou does not get this appointment, we hope it goes to a member of the Russo or Dimora families in Cuyahoga County. Even though many of them are in jail, or soon will be, they are one of the top royal families in this state and that entitles them to special considerations not available to the rest of us. Governor Kasich can earn back some of the respect he has lost from us by appointing someone from a well-connected family rather than an individual with impressive professional qualifications.

Alex Triantafilou - GOP Leader of the Week
Dear fellow tax hikers, before we hand out our award we would like to congratulate Alex and Jennifer Triantafilou on their joyful remarriage! Remember when Alex T got Tracy Winkler to give Jennifer a $50,000/year taxpayer-funded job she was completely unqualified to hold? Now Chairman Alex T gets to claim his share of the loot!
We move on to the main purpose of this post - to give our good friend Alex Triantafilou a special award. It's campaign season everyone! Republicans of all stripes are working hard to get their folks to the polls this November. Last week, the Hamilton County Republican Party sent out no fewer than FOUR emails promoting their big door-to-door effort this past Saturday starting at 9:00 AM. Surely the leader would be there to lead the troops!
Let's see which doors Mr. T was planning to knock on that morning:
Ok, that was written at 6:47 AM. Alex could get the shopping done early and still be present at 9:00 AM sharp to lead the troops! Not this week folks, the following tweet was written at 8:58 AM:
Head on down to Findlay Market? After sending 4 emails during the prior week asking people to report for campaign duty? For good measure, here's what came next:
That's our Chairman, shopping for food at Findlay Market while GOP activists spend the morning going door-to-door for Republicans. For this display of hard work, we proudly name Chairman Alex Triantafilou our GOP Leader of the Week! This is the cool, confident leadership we can get behind.
We'll see you GOP workers this Saturday morning for door-to-door. Scratch that, we'll go shopping with Chairman T instead.

Stan Chesley supports Tracy Winkler
Dear fellow tax hikers, you can imagine the pride we felt when our ethical mentor Stan Chesley threw his support to one of our closest friends Tracy Winkler! We felt even better when Tracy thanked Mr. Chesley for everything he's doing for her. Just in case that link disappears, for your benefit we have taken a screen shot to ensure it remains preserved forever:
We have long admired the liberal Chesley for everything he's done for society. We adore his selflessness, his ability to get his wife Susan Dlott the job of her dreams, and especially his wonderful ethics.
In fact, Stan Chesley is so great that the Kentucky Bar Association has voted to disbar him for a multitude of violations relating to the fen-phen class action lawsuit.
Sounds like our kind of guy! We don't have any problem with lawyers whose conduct requires disbarment. Neither does Tracy Winkler. We applaud Mrs. Winkler for accepting financial assistance from this kind of guy, and for having the good grace to thank him for his help.
Some might wonder what it is about Winkler that Chesley admires. We believe it is their joint sense of ethics. Tracy herself has no problems spending other people's money to give government jobs to friends and relatives who lack the qualifications to fill them.
The most famous example of this is the infamous Jennifer Triantafilou scandal. Tracy played a key role in giving Hamilton County GOP Chairman Alex Triantafilou's wife Jennifer a job she was completely unqualified to hold, in exchange for Alex arranging for her to be selected the Hamilton County Clerk of Courts. It was the kind of apparent quid pro quo that brings tears to our tax-hiking eyes.
We firmly believe that Stan Chesley is as fit to be a Justice on the U.S. Supreme Court as Tracy Winkler is to be the Clerk of Courts. We need more people like Chesley in politics. We are glad Mr. Chesley will always have a prime seat at the table as long as Tracy's in charge.

"The 75-year-old Cincinnati attorney had been accused by disciplinary officials of the Kentucky Bar Association of making false statements to the courts and bar officials, self-dealing in violation of the bar’s conflict of interest rules, taking excessive legal fees, sanctioning misconduct by other lawyers and failing to adequately inform clients."Also:
In that report, Graham said Chesley's "callous subordination" of his clients' interests to his own greed was "both shocking and reprehensible".

Tracy Winkler's Unqualified HR Hire
Tracy Winkler's latest Jennifer Triantafilou-style hiring is the new Chief Human Resources Officer Tony Rosiello. Does Rosiello have any prior experience running a human resources office? No! Does Rosiello have any experience working in Human Resources? No! Is Rosiello qualified in any way to be a human resources chief for a large county department? No!
Tony Rosiello quite clearly lacks the professional qualifications for this position. But he has the one qualification that matters - he's a good friend of Tracy Winkler. And sure enough, Rosiello happens to be the point of contact for two Tracy Winkler fundraising events taking place next month. Tracy has never been shy about using your tax dollars to take care of friends and family.
It goes even deeper than that. Tony Rosiello is the newest Green Township Trustee. He and his colleagues have the authority to fire Green Township employee Allison Detzel, who happens to be Tracy Winkler's daughter. Rosiello and his colleagues also have the ability to fire Jennifer Triantafilou, who Tracy hired in exchange for her appointment to be the Clerk of Courts.
By having Rosiello working for her in a full-time, well-paying, administrative position, Winkler can use her status as his employer to continue controlling Green Township through Tony. Winkler can assure the continued employment of her daughter Allison Detzel and Alex T's ex-wife Jennifer Triantafilou no matter how poorly they do their jobs.
Tracy Winkler will never apologize for using your tax dollars to take care of friends and family. That's how it should be. It's more important to ensure the Winkler and Triantafilou families are taken care than to worry about government being well-run. This will definitely result in more incidents like the one we just saw when Tracy Winkler's Clerk of Courts office accidently released sealed files regarding two accused rapes. That is the price we must pay for putting the welfare of the Triantafilous and Winklers ahead of the interests of every other family in Hamilton County.
We welcome Tony Rosiello aboard as the new Human Resources Chief, even though he has no idea what's he doing.

Tracy Winkler releases sealed rape files
Dear fellow tax hikers, we ask everyone to go easy on our friend Tracy Winkler regarding the latest piece of bad news to hit her office. It was recently reported that Winkler's Clerk of Courts office failed to seal confidential files regarding an alleged rape that a Judge ordered sealed, and this failure allowed these documents to be broadcast to the public.
Please, cut Tracy a break. These things are bound to happen in an office where employees are hired based on their relationship with Tracy Winkler instead of their professional qualifications. Releasing sealed rape accusation files is an example of the consequences of business as usual. We don't want things to change.
Tracy Winkler herself was selected for her position in an apparent quid pro quo. As a Green Township Trustee, Winkler hired Alex Triantafilou's uneducated wife Jennifer Triantafilou for a professional position in which she didn't meet the minimum job qualifications. In return, Alex T selected Tracy W to be our Clerk of Courts.
As we will detail in a special report later this week, Tracy Winkler has been making these same type of decisions in the Clerk's office. The friends and family of Tracy get the jobs first, even if they aren't qualified. So what if that leads to more errors like a few rape accusation files getting mistakenly released?
We ask all you tax hikers to be understanding of Tracy and not hold these mistakes against her. After all, if Tracy wanted to run the office well she would have to hire qualified personnel and not her friends and family. That would be awful. We must all stand behind Tracy Winkler, her cronies, and all her mistakes.

Our new Clerk of Courts
Dear fellow tax hikers, today was a special day for us personally and for the movement that we lead. We were privileged to be in attendance as our Tracy Winkler was officially sworn in as the new Hamilton County Clerk of Courts! Then at the reception afterwards we enjoyed an appetizer with Tracy, followed by a bucket of wings, and some chips and dip, and an assorted variety of candies, and finally a sampling of wonderful desserts.
Tracy wasted no time getting busy at her new job. By the end of the week we anticipate she will actually know what the Clerk of Courts does. With hundreds of patronage jobs at her disposal, Tracy will have many hiring decisions to make. She will soon make key decisions about her administrative staff, perhaps replacing workers like Mike Robison with some of her unemployed relatives with minimal education.
And naturally, Jennifer Triantafilou is being strongly considered for a high-ranking job. Because of her qualifications, of course.
Team Tax Hikers, all of you deserve credit for the great jobs you have done! This couldn't have happened without you. We did our job convincing the party that Tracy Winkler was entitled to this position. Between her last name and her decision to hire Jennifer Triantafilou for a job she was completely unqualified for, Tracy earned this appointment. Tracy is very appreciative of everything we have done. Now we will get our reward as she serves Hamilton County as well as she's served Green Township.

Winkler's final hurdle
Dear fellow tax hikers, we are so close to making Tracy Winkler our next Hamilton County Clerk of Courts that we can already taste the victory. Just one more hurdle remains. On Tuesday the Hamilton County Republican Party Executive Committee meets to make the final decision for the Clerk of Courts. We can tell you now what will happen.
We are proud to report the exclusive news that Tracy Winkler has already been selected by the Executive Committee in advance of tomorrow's meeting! The decision has been made that Winkler will win in an overwhelming vote. We are working to make it unanimous.
This is a fantastic victory for our tax hiking team. We recognized our star on the rise, Tracy Winkler, and put everything else aside to focus on getting her this position. We have even postponed naming our 2011 Tax Hiker of the Year to focus all our attention on Winkler.
Tracy is entitled to this appointment! She is a Winkler. She hired Alex Triantafilou's wife for a position that she was otherwise unqualified to fill. She shut down public comments at the Green Township Trustee meetings. Tracy is owed a favor by the Party Chairman, and tomorrow Tracy officially collects. Our tax dollars at work!

Winkler picked by Selection Committee
Dear fellow tax hikers, we are sure you have heard the great news that Tracy Winkler was officially selected by the Hamilton County Republican Party's insider screening committee to be our next Clerk of Courts. This is no surprise to you loyal readers, as we announced on Tuesday night that the screening committee had already selected Winkler in advance of their Wednesday meeting.
Winkler earned this selection. Winkler hired Alex Triantafilou's wife for a township position that she was completely unqualified for to do a favor for the party boss. Now she is collecting on that favor. In addition, Tracy married into the Winkler family. That alone gives her special privileges that she is exploiting to her full advantage.
This is how politics works - you sell out your integrity for the party boss, and he will sell out his integrity for you. Things like serving the citizens, saving taxpayer money, and good government don't matter. It's about getting what yours. We applaud the Winkler and Triantafilou families for showing us what is important.

Tracy Winkler selected Clerk of Courts
Dear fellow tax hikers, on Wednesday the Hamilton County Republican Party's hand-picked Special Screening Committee will be meeting for their fair, open, and honest interview process to select our next Clerk of Courts. We are delighted to be the first to report that they have already selected Green Township Trustee Tracy Winkler for this important vacancy! On orders from above, Winkler has won the appointment in a lopsided vote. They will meet tomorrow to make it official.
We are proud to be the first Republican organization to endorse Winkler. We have previously listed her many qualifications for higher office. This leads us to correct one small mistake in yesterday's blog entry, where we stated that Winkler wasn't qualified for this job. It is true that Winkler has absolutely zero professional qualifications to be Clerk of Courts. However she has the qualifications that matter - her last name is Winkler, AND she spends our taxpayer money to hire friends and relatives for township jobs that they are incapable of performing.
Tracy is being rewarded for hiring Party Chairman Alex Triantafilou's wife for a Green Township government job that she was completely unqualified to hold, bypassing many qualified candidates in the process. We covered this issue extensively in our last entry. It has also been covered even more extensively by that awful Green Township watchdog Jeffry Smith, who has the complete set of documents at his blog entry. We encourage all of you to click the link to his site and read them.
As Clerk of Courts, Winkler will have hundreds of patronage jobs to dole out. The unemployment rate for the Friends and Family of Tracy will be 0% once she gets rid of those stupid qualified professionals currently working there and replaces them with her gang.
This is how Hamilton County GOP politics works. Quid pro quo. Tracy Winkler sacrificed her integrity to do a favor for the party boss. Tomorrow Alex Triantafilou returns the favor. Your tax dollars are funding all of this. We ask everyone to join us in congratulating Tracy Winkler for her selection as Hamilton County's newest Clerk of Courts.

Tracy Winkler - The Jennifer Triantafilou Factor
Dear fellow tax hikers, we proudly endorse Green Township Trustee Tracy Winkler for Hamilton County Clerk of Courts. We have previously endorsed Winkler for higher office and we stand behind her 100% as she applies to be selected by our Hamilton County Republican Party for this vacancy. She is going to get this appointment. One key reason is because of Winkler's key role in hiring Jennifer Triantafilou, who was the wife of GOP Chairman Alex Triantafilou, for a Green Township government position she was completely unqualified to hold.
Citizen watchdog and candidate for Green Township Trustee Jeffry Smith has compiled extensive documents about this controversial hire at his website. His website contains an excellent, thorough accounting of this process and we encourage all you tax hikers to read through it. Among the findings:
- This position required a Bachelor's degree. Jennifer Triantafilou's highest level of education was completing an Electrocardiography Certificate at Cincinnati State.
- The application deadline was November 9, 2009. Triantafilou applied on November 20th at the earliest.
- Triantafilou was not selected by the Township Administrator as one of the final four candidates, all of whom were actually qualified for the position. Yet, Winkler jumped into the process to insist that the unqualified, unrecommended Triantafilou get hired in spite of the presence of the highly qualified applicants.
Tracy Winkler sold her integrity to get a favor from Alex Triantafilou. Now it's payback time.
Tracy herself lacks the education, experience, and intelligence to be a solid Clerk of Courts. But none of that matters. Winkler hired Triantafilou's wife for a position she was not qualified to hold, and now Alex is going to select Tracy for a job she is unqualified to hold. This is how it works and we think it's great. And just think - your tax dollars are paying for all of this.
Tracy Winkler for Clerk of Courts - because qualifications just don't matter.

Oppose Jeffry Smith for Green Township Trustee
Dear fellow tax hikers, it is a matter of extreme importance that we stop citizen activist Jeffry Smith from getting elected Green Township Trustee. Mr. Smith's advocacy for good government and against nepotism is unacceptable and has caused much discomfort for the elite ruling class of this fine township. Mr. Smith's crimes against our allies in the tax-and-spend movement are severe and disqualify him from serving the public.
1) Jeffry Smith is the peasant who uncovered the truth behind the hiring of Jennifer Triantafilou for a job she's completely unqualified to hold, and in fact did not apply for until nearly 2 weeks after the application deadline. Mr. Smith compiled the public documents and posted them on his site to show her lack of qualifications and the political reasons behind the hire. The Green Township Trustees bypassed many qualified candidates to hire the wife of Hamilton County Republican Party Chairman Alex Triantafilou in order to gain political favor down the road. We at Republicans for Higher Taxes think there is nothing wrong with hiring well-connected political wives for jobs they aren't capable of performing.
2) Smith discovered that the Nathanael Greene Lodge has been losing an average of $200,000 per year. This lodge is co-run by Allison Detzel, who happens to be the daughter of Trustee Tracy Winkler. Smith thinks something is wrong with this. We don't have any problem with hiring an elected official's daughter to lose a ton of money for the Township.
3) We are especially disappointed that Smith has criticized the Trustees for shutting down public comments at their Township meetings. Why would any elected official care what regular citizens have to say about their government? The Green Township Trustees sure don't care. Smith should apologize for insisting that he and his fellow citizens have a right to be heard at their local government meetings.
Do you want a representative who lets you speak at government meetings? Then don't vote for Smith. Do you have a problem with Trustees hiring their children to lose taxpayer money? Then don't vote for Smith, he'll hire someone who can do the job. Do you support hiring the Party Chairman's wife for a job she's incapable of performing? Then don't vote for Smith, he'll hire qualified personnel instead.
Whatever you do, don't vote for Jeffry Smith. There are too many relatives of political officials whose patronage jobs depend on it.
1) Jeffry Smith is the peasant who uncovered the truth behind the hiring of Jennifer Triantafilou for a job she's completely unqualified to hold, and in fact did not apply for until nearly 2 weeks after the application deadline. Mr. Smith compiled the public documents and posted them on his site to show her lack of qualifications and the political reasons behind the hire. The Green Township Trustees bypassed many qualified candidates to hire the wife of Hamilton County Republican Party Chairman Alex Triantafilou in order to gain political favor down the road. We at Republicans for Higher Taxes think there is nothing wrong with hiring well-connected political wives for jobs they aren't capable of performing.
2) Smith discovered that the Nathanael Greene Lodge has been losing an average of $200,000 per year. This lodge is co-run by Allison Detzel, who happens to be the daughter of Trustee Tracy Winkler. Smith thinks something is wrong with this. We don't have any problem with hiring an elected official's daughter to lose a ton of money for the Township.
3) We are especially disappointed that Smith has criticized the Trustees for shutting down public comments at their Township meetings. Why would any elected official care what regular citizens have to say about their government? The Green Township Trustees sure don't care. Smith should apologize for insisting that he and his fellow citizens have a right to be heard at their local government meetings.

We Endorse Tracy Winkler
Dear fellow tax hikers, we are beaming with pride to announce our endorsement of Green Township Trustee Tracy Winkler to move up in the political world. Tracy is currently considering whether she would like to be the next 30th District State Representative or become Hamilton County's next Clerk of Courts. We have detailed Tracy's extensive qualifications for higher office and have proven that she would be a phenomenal choice for either position.
Therefore, we proudly endorse.......Tracy Winkler for Something. Consider the fine Tracy Winkler record:
1. Tracy proudly hired Chairman Alex Triantafilou's ex-wife Jennifer Triantafilou for a position she is completely unqualified to hold and did not even apply for until 11 days after the application deadline. Tracy has no problems selling out her integrity to obey orders from her superiors. That's exactly the kind of public servant we value here at Republicans for Higher Taxes.
2. Supported a 1.9 mill property tax increase for Green Township property owners.
3. With Tracy's blessing, the Nathaniel Greene Lodge loses $200,000 per year for the Township. One of the co-managers of this money-losing operation is Tracy's daughter, Allison Detzel. We have no problem with nepotism, as long as it's kept in the family.
4. Permitted her Township Administrator to campaign in favor of keeping the Estate Tax. Nobody should be allowed to die in the State of Ohio without paying one last tax to the government.
5. An opponent of the 1st Amendment, Tracy shut down public comments at Green Township meetings. According to the Township's 2/14/11 Minutes, "Chairman Winkler stated that residents do not have the right to speak at Trustees Meetings." We fully concur, unless they are there to advocate higher taxes.
6. Finally, we cannot forget Tracy's #1 qualification - she married into the Winkler family. That alone makes her highly qualified to serve as Hamilton County's Clerk of Courts or as an Ohio State Representative.
When Tracy Winkler's handlers choose which office she wants to hold, we will support the decision 100% and work overtime to make sure the voters know her fine record. Soon enough she will be serving the under-taxed citizens in a larger capacity. Tracy Winkler for something!
