We have certainly had ourselves a week, haven’t we? How is everybody doing? I apologize I’m late getting this post out. I had to process and marinate WTF I saw on Tuesday and I’m not even talking about the parking lot showdown. We’ll get to that in a little bit though. First I want to clean up some Johnny Cade details and then hopefully we can let the little horse finally rest in peace. Having said that, the usual applies… there are lots of video clips on this post, so click them if you’re on a mobile device and, settle in for a long one.
I think all these pictures are pretty self-explanatory. I’m not sure why Johnny dying meant that nobody could feed themselves or their fridges became magically empty, but `it is what it is’. I’ve noticed Manson begging for food quite a bit recently.
I recall them exclaiming how much Johnny Cade peed when they took him out of the sling. Wonder why that might be…These pictures sum up this little horse’s sad last days. What we’re going to talk about next, well, I’ll let you decide for yourselves.
I don’t know what to say. Manson brags about an 85k/month budget and she can’t write a check for $1600 if it even was that much? How can an operation HiCaliber’s size not have a credit line or some cash reserves? Are they teetering on the brink of not being able to feed these horses at all times? I know the explanation will be some long-winded shit about liquid cash, but the bottom line is she can’t write a check for what should be a minimal amount to an organization as large as hers. The other thing is not all their donations went through Facebook so she should be able to access that right away. Even if Facebook is holding the money for a few weeks, they get so much sent every day, it should be coming in regularly now. Now they’ve started a Venmo account so they have yet another way to get your money. Yikes!
Even in death, Johnny Cade continues to be exploited. I know there has been a lot of debate about whether this is really his foot print or not. It wouldn’t surprise me if it wasn’t, but upon looking at the Peaceful Paws website it probably is his. They just don’t do very nice paw and hoof prints and with Johnny never having any foot care at HiCaliber, his hoof print wouldn’t be `clean’. I’d think for $40 I’d rather have a nice picture of him than a piss poor,low quality replica of whatever this is, but I’m not a village idiot so who knows the thought process there. Johnny Cade appeared to be an Appy so hopefully this is the end of harvesting and exploiting him for cash so there isn’t much mane or tail. No word on where the cremains actually are. I’m sure they have a maudlin little live feed planned for that. RIP Johnny Cade.
I guess we should probably talk about auction at some point and now is as good a time as any. It was glorious and I want to give a major shout out to Robin J from HiCaliber Horror Story for her composure and stepping up and taking action. The Manson Family always accuse their detractors of being keyboard warriors and invite us to come out and `do something’, but they didn’t seem too happy to be taken at their word. I’m sure most of you saw the hilarious live feed of Romney losing her shit and Manson running away and hiding. So much awesome. I’m going to try to break it down a bit so we can try to make some sense of things. Let’s start with the ever charming proprietor of Ontario Livestock Auction, Horacio Santorsola. He’s a real peach with absolutely zero respect for animals and apparently even less for women. You can read all about him at this link. It’s probably not a huge surprise that he’s Team HiCaliber.
Isn’t he charming? What a gentleman! My favorite bit is Manson sneaking away at the start. Typical bully that runs and hides when she gets confronted, leaving shrieking Rom to dig that hole deeper. Let’s back up though…
I just gotta say it….what a piece of shit Romney Faye is. WTH? Screeching that she’s being assaulted after she’s been in somebody’s face. Really? My favorite part though is the thinly veiled threat that she’s not afraid of Robin because she used to date a bouncer. Yes folks, in Romney Faye’s world the ability to kick ass is sexually transmitted. I wonder if the bouncer kicked her to the curb like her fiancée did. Can you imagine dealing with that in the morning? I think this is what some people used to call a fishwife.
This was what the start of the incident looked at from the other side of things. Romney Faye was NOT happy to be caught strategizing. So, at this point we had Romney screeching about being assaulted, Robin J being ganged up on and Manson scuttling off to hide. The village idiots were angry at the mean Horror Girl and advocates didn’t know whether to laugh or bang our heads against the desk at how immature and ridiculous Romney Faye was. It’s almost like we weren’t even watching the same confrontation. It seemed pretty clear to me that Romney stepped into Robin while Manson ran away. It’s too bad there wasn’t a third-party there to film them both at the same time so we could sort all this out. Oh wait…
There is actual footage of this but it’s in a much longer video. I’ll put it up on YouTube when I get around to getting somebody to clip it for me. Suffice to say that there was more than one advocate at Ontario and this one was completely under the radar. Some of us operate best in stealth mode, what can I say? Romney Faye was the aggressor in the confrontation.
Now we have Cristina Pagan making actual threats to advocates. Funny the police didn’t arrest anybody but I’m sure they will be interested to know that HiCaliber is making threats in advance of next week. I actually feel sorry for anybody that shows up at auction that they don’t recognize. Even if they have no clue about HiCaliber, they’ll be branded a hater and harassed and bullied. Maybe we’ll have another tour around local parking lots to run the cons like we did a few months ago so the haters can’t see. The one thing we do know for sure is that the truth won’t be told by HiCaliber.
The horse tied to the trailer while all this drama was going down was a 2012 OTTB mare named `I Love You Galle’. She was a home-bred that only raced one time in a 40k claimer. She beat only two horses that day and never raced again. It would appear from the tag around her neck she was a broodmare or recip of some sort she may have even been in foal. Obviously, she did not land softly after her brief racing career. She was mangled and clearly in a lot of pain. She appeared to have a ruptured tendon and her foot was sloughing off. Of course, don’t take my word for that because I don’t even play vet on the internet. Lucky for everybody we had the 30% vet there to give us all her expert diagnosis of what was wrong with this mare.
Before Manson got down to telling the village idiots what was up, we caught this little convo between her and Romney Faye while Horacio was bullying Robin J. If you recall, there was mention that AC had been called in so Romney Faye tells Manson to `get this horse medicated’ and then says to get her out of there or something. In other words, let’s protect the abuser that was standing right there too. We’ll get to him soon.
You heard it here first, folks! Cellulitis is an overgrowth of fat cells according to Dr. Manson and proud flesh is a `similar issue’. I don’t even know how to address this level of ignorance. The majority of my readers probably know that cellulitis has no relation to the cottage cheese ass Manson sports, but rather a bacterial infection and inflammation under the skin in the connective tissues. It can technically happen anywhere on the body but most often it will be in the hind legs. Proud flesh has nothing to do with cellulitis as it is granulated tissue that grows out over a healing wound. It is almost always confined to the lower limbs and has nothing to do with infection. FYI Manson, any time you see have a word with `itis’ at the end, that means inflammation aka tendonitis is inflammation of a tendon, bronchitis is inflammation of the bronchial tube lining, etc. This isn’t even something only vets know. This is high school biology. Please stop spreading your ignorance to the masses. You just lost 10 vet Google vet points for this.
I apologize for jumping around in time. It’s hard to keep this all ordered and broken down for people in a way that makes sense as some of this stuff was out of range of HiCaliber cameras. This is Romney Faye climbing all over Nacho’s trailer to photograph Galle before she was unloaded and dramatically introduced to the village idiots. You gotta get those posts up and create the narrative to get those village idiots to dig deep before going live and that takes some preparation. This is the part of auction they don’t show people. Here’s another part you don’t get to see on live feeds either…
In this sequence you can see the arrival of Galle to auction in Nacho’s trailer. Romney Faye is there to deal with him and watch her unload. She nearly fell backing out of the trailer as she couldn’t put weight on her injured leg. No poor family with no means to euthanize a horse, no old people needing help, just Nacho again with yet another mangled horse that he’s making money off of just like every other week. I guess he’s softening up on his price because Manson sure doesn’t seem to mind Nacho these days and it’s been weeks since she referred to him as Nacho MoFo on live feeds.
So, after the drama with Galle, Manson walks up with this dancing stallion with a wrecked foot. She hit the daily double with two horse that tugged at the heart-strings enough to get the money raised and neither one stood a chance of surviving much more than a day once she got her hooks into them. That’s over $1000 in her pocket and all she spent was a bullet and a few flakes of hay. You’ll notice how Romney acts all surprised about his foot and Manson goes on one of her rants about the poor family not being able to afford euthanasia and how they are offering this service. It all sounds so rescue-y! Let’s rewind…
This was from before Manson showed up with this horse. As you can see, this is not some poor family that can’t afford to euthanize this horse, this is one of their regulars that likely mangled this horse. That’s not a birth defect he had or at least not to that degree. Perhaps Romney Faye should take some of that responsible rescue money this horse will never use and buy some acting lessons for herself. This is yet another regular horse abuser with connections to Salvador.
When you listen to the above clip, please turn the sound up. The person with the camera (not me) narrates what is going on in the parking lot along with time stamping things as she describes the sequence of events. It’s heartbreaking how long that poor mare stood there on three legs while HiCaliber checked paypal and venmo to make sure they raised enough cash to make it worth their while to help her. Romney Faye and the village idiots screech that RobinJ wasn’t there to buy a horse, but the fact is these horses are not available to anybody but HiCaliber. By showing up to document and call authorities, Robin J did more to save horse than HiCaliber has all year.
Between the screen shot and the video clip, I think it explains so much about the HiCaliber auction experience. I think the screen shot may be older but still interesting. I knew that they brought donuts to the front office each week, but this is a new one for me that they may be paying for access at Ontario. It does make sense though just like it makes sense on the video clip that Romney admits to being shitballed half the time on Xanax and apparently Fireball. It alos dawned on me that she appears to drive herself to and from auction. What an asshole.
Since Horacio wants to be a dick and bully women and condone abuse and exploitation of animals, I thought it was time to take a closer look at his little auction of horrors. I have long been aware the he’s got a history of violations and investigations into his business but didn’t take the time to really dig. Manson will tell you that’s in the past and he has a good staff now. What she doesn’t tell you or show you is more often than not, on her way to cry over a calf or goat, she’s stepping over other dead ones thrown aside like so much trash right there in the chutes. No tears for them because she can’t show them on camera. Then it turns out that Horacio likely doesn’t own the land the market is on. Further digging is needed but it appears to be owned by Maclin Markets. Maybe Horacio is operating under that banner but so far, nobody has been able to dig up a business permit for him or Ontario Livestock Auction at that address. That’s not to say there isn’t one, but it’s going to require a closer look. I’d like to thank Romney Faye for inspiring people to take a closer look. There is all kinds or information about the atrocities at Ontario in the Exposing Ontario Livestock Market group on Facebook along with a petition that is signing.
I’m sure it comes as no surprise that Galle and Jag were both shot in the face. Likely neither ever saw the real vet as Manson threw out her customary `bone change and joint infection’ diagnosis for Galle and the dancing stallion aka Jag, was labelled as having a birth defect despite her posting his dancing video. She then claimed the person she bought him off only had him a few days and didn’t realize he had no foot, but at auction wasn’t he somebody that got in over his head and needed help? How did he get the videos of him dancing if he knew nothing about him? So many questions! The saddest part was Manson making Jag walk down a hill while he struggled and poor Galle was having to walk to the killing field even though she could hardly put her bad foot down. Manson claimed it was because she couldn’t shoot her in front of the other horses. No tears or mourning period for Jag and Galle’s suffering. They barely got a few `poor babies’ from the village idiots. No foot prints in the gift shop either, although I won’t be surprised if Jag’s glorious tail wasn’t harvested. While Johnny Cade was cremated and honored, Galle was chopped up and her organs and limbs harvested for `science’. She died with her recip tag still on. Jag died with his charro chain on his nose. Helluva life they had. RIP Galle and Jag. #saytheirnames
From the rest of you, I want to know what was different from slaughter for these two horses. They were hauled for several hours while in pain. Ontario auction is at least 2 hours away from HiCaliber and that’s not when Manson is stopping to fill her face, gas up and whatever else she feels like doing. They get unloaded in the dark in a crowded, filthy and unfamiliar place and are promptly shot in the face within a day or two. The only difference is a bullet vs a captive bolt. As far as the horse is concerned there is no difference . They have been saved from nothing. Then you have Manson whining that she’s missing her time with her children. This was only after she decided to exploit her daughter on live feed and blame the haters for the kid seeing bad stuff about mommy on the internet. Manson forgot to mention the kid has had an instagram for over a year and is given free rein to watch whatever she wants on YouTube. Here’s an idea…STOP GOING TO AUCTION and stop being such a dick on social media. Put your children first. I don’t even know why they go through the motions of going to auction at all when they buy from the same flippers every single week and rarely even bother with horses in the ring anymore. They bought only one from the ring this week. A bay stallion they promptly gelded without even giving him a chance to settle. Don’t worry though. He’s already off the village idiot radar along with Magnum, Penelope and pretty much any othe recent acquisition. The poor crooked legged filly doesn’t even have a name yet as far as we’ve seen.
Because the weekly con quota had not been filled at auction and Bubba Misner was MIA on Tuesday, Manson ran a mid-week con. I’m not the only one that immediately recognized the fact that the `camp gelding’ was standing on Misner’s lot when she first posted about him. The skinny mare’s pictures were deliberately vague but Salvador isn’t far from Misner and his place looks similar. What we know for sure is that Bubba is playing the role of `man who purchased old camp horse for his child only to find out it is crippled and can’t afford the euthanasia and removal costs’ this week. For starters, Bubba has thankfully not reproduced and he’s also not short of cash thanks to Manson and her village idiots.
Because Manson saw that everybody had twigged to where the gelding was, she decided to drive him to another property in Perris to photograph him again. Salvador and Fice both live in Paris btw. Unfortunately for Manson I had already gotten a message that somebody had seen that horse at Misner’s. Naturally the village idiots rallied and bought Manson another horse to eventually shoot. The skinny mare gets to suffer without feed for a while yet because they didn’t dig deep enough so no free euth services for her! She can suffer for a few more days apparently. Manson didn’t even drop off a bale or two of hay to get her through until she goes back for her, which we all know she will. She will likely show up with a different back story though. This one did not seem to motivate the village idiots enough.
These are pictures of the conditions at HiCaliber right now. Overcrowded, filthy and the shit mountain continues to grow. I know I’m mostly preaching to the choir here but this is NOT rescue and this is not ok. This is no life for any animal. Most of these horses do not get out of these small pens nor are they handled very often. By several reports, there are many sick horses right now and just tonight, Manson is standing in the barn tie area with a horse she has just drug home from Misner’s lot. It was only a few weeks ago she said right on live feed he had strangles on his lot. They obviously have to keep bringing in these horses so they can get the responsible rescue fee to pay their bills but it’s out of control. They are not rehabbing and placing these horses. They are warehousing them.
Before I wrap all this up, I want to remind people part of why we do what we do. These are just two of Salvador’s buddies and yes, they’re tripping horses. This is what HiCaliber is protecting. Those horses at the end of the rope are the horses that are showing up in these parking lots broken beyond repair and being further exploited for money by HiCaliber. They do nothing to stop this or blow the whistle because Manson claims you’ll never stop them all. You won’t stop everybody from driving drunk, but we still have laws and enforcement. How can anybody that professes to be a rescue protect this? How can anybody that loves animals turn a blind eye?
I think it’s safe to say things seem to be escalating. I don’t know what that means for Hicaliber and the village idiots other than Manson appears to be attempting to sell this `free euthanasia’ angle to them and they haven’t yet realized that they still have to raise money for her free euths. I guess she’s still trying to make the whole `angel of death’ thing happen. Meanwhile things behind the scenes are extremely busy. I can’t always tip my hand in public, but rest assured that all this is going somewhere and the wheels have started to turn. This means to keep doing what you’ve been doing because it is working. As unlikable as the personalities involved seem to be, it’s really not about them. There are plenty of people in the horse industry I don’t care for but as long as they are taking care of their animals and treating them with respect, it’s all good to me. That’s not happening here and this isn’t a game or a little light entertainment. Manson constantly rants that none of us do anything for the horses. Anybody can buy a horse from a flipper like she does. We’re looking to actually rescue a whole bunch of present and future inmates and stop them from being exploited. That’s rescue and making a positive change. The next times she spins one of her tales about somebody trying to feed their family or people in over their head, remember the one in over their head is her and remember where the money comes from. Until next time…..#matahari
