It's a sad state when mainstream media is more concerned about missing air in NFL footballs, than missing emails from the Secretary of State.

Online story: "Lawyers for the Baltimore police officers charged in the death of Freddie Gray filed a motion Friday calling for the case to be thrown out and/or State’s Attorney Marilyn J. Mosby to be removed or dismissed from it. * The motion filed in Baltimore City District Court cites multiple concerns, CNN reports, including potential bias and conflicts of interest, * Mosby, the 35-year-old prosecutor who was elected Baltimore City State’s Attorney last November, announced on Friday the six would face charges including second degree murder and manslaughter" -- "announced...the six would face charges"? Good grief... she already PRONOUNCED them guilty as hell
---
Online headline: "MSNBC Says Black Cops Charged In Freddie Gray’s Death Are Actually ‘‘White African-Americans’’ -- Good grief.. the only thing MSNBC could add to this that would be even more racist is to say the three "White African-American" police officers are also Republicans...
---
Online story: "The Illinois Supreme Court forced the state Friday to find another way to fix the nation's worst government-employee pension crisis, ruling lawmakers "overstepped" by enacting a law that slashed retirement benefits to confront a massive budget deficit. * In a unanimous decision that frequently scolded state policymakers, the seven justices declared that the measure former Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn signed into law 18 months ago violates the state constitution because it would leave pension promises "diminished or impaired." -- "violates....because it would leave pension promises "diminished or impaired"? Good grief.. Who expects Democrats to keep their promises anyway.. but when faced with a choice of what should be "diminished or impaired", it ought to be the people who caused such a situation, not the taxpayers who paid their salaries!

Did you know that there is a movie in the works about the life of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg? It's called "On the Basis of Sex".. hmmm well, we already know that it will hardly be impartial, but after looking at the official US Supreme Court portraits, I have a hard time imagining her as ever having sex...

There's a BBQ restaurant in Colorado getting ripped by liberals... what started out as just a thought is to become a reality... June 11 will be "White Appreciation Day" and all whites will get a 10% discount.. The rub? The BBQ owner is Hispanic. Maybe "political correctness" has finally met its match, and the world can breathe again...

Online story: "The United States has asked Beijing to investigate reports that China interfered with Internet content hosted outside the country and used it to attack U.S. websites, the State Department said on Friday. * "We are concerned by reports that China has used a new cyber capability to interfere with the ability of worldwide Internet users to access content hosted outside of China," State Department spokesman Jeff Rathke said." -- Good grief.. our State Department has asked China to investigate itself...sorta like hiring foxes to guard the henhouse.. or as in other State Department actions, hiring Libyans to guard the US Embassy in BengHazi...

HuffPOOPOO headline: "Toxic Turf? Movement Grows Against Synthetic Turf" -- Good grief.. parents complaining about the use of recycled tires being used as underlayment for synthetic sports grass are the same ones who would spread fertilizer, weed-be-gone, and Sevin dust on their lawns then send their children outside to play...

HuffPOOPOO story: "Former "Brady Bunch" star Florence Henderson sat down with "The HuffPost Show" on Friday and recounted how she unexpectedly contracted a sexually transmitted disease after a "little fling" with former New York City Mayor John Lindsay, a story she tells in her memoir Life is Not a Stage. * "It's not something I'm proud of but it's something that happened," she told host Roy Sekoff. "[John Lindsay and I] had a little fling one night and the next morning, I woke up and I had these creatures and I had no idea." * While Lindsay was definitely apologetic, he and Henderson never tried for a second date." -- Good grief.. Florence Henderson was the originator of Jane Curtin's role on SNL' Weekend Update" as the "ignorant slut"! She had sex with a politician on a first date, then blabs about it in a book and on a live interview..

MCSD Budget proposal for 2015-16 school year:
Subject Salary and Benefits Budget Adjustment Type Action
Background and Rationale: In accordance to Board policy DCI, budget adjustments of $25,000 or more, must be submitted to the Board for approval. This budget adjustment reallocates funds into the correct function to align with expected expenditures related to salary and benefits.

Budgetary Impact: $0

Budgeted X_Yes
_ __No (Board approval is authorization to establish funding for this item in the Budget)



                        CURRENT BUDGET            PROPOSED BUDGET         ADJUSTMENT AMENDED BUDGET

Instruction $168,039,031                $ (1,891,849)                   $166,147,182

Well.. it looks like those teacher raises "hinted at" by Lewis to get in house SPLOST support aren't in the budget.. in fact,, the budget is lower.... but further down the budget proposal list:
School Administration
Current Budget             Proposed Budget Adjustment               Amended Budge
$16,360,459                  $1,620,654                                             $17,981,113

Looks like another close to 10% raise for the Chiefs added onto the almost 10% raises they got last year..As Mel Brooks would be apt to say, "It's good to be the king"...

Remember my mentioning that a school classroom lost its A/C in mid-March? It still hasn't been fixed, and won't be until school resumes in August.... Yeah..the MCSD is really "for our kids"... NOT!

Online story: "ISIS reportedly released a list of five states it’s ready to attack, three of which have some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation. * according to a state ranking from Guns & Ammo which lists the best state for gun owners at #1 and the strictest gun control state at #50, California, Maryland and Illinois are ranked #46, #44 and #41 respectively." -- This ought to send CA Senator Feinstein back to the drawing table... and Chicago will be an enigma for ISIS.. a city with the toughest gun laws may have the most guns of any inner city complex in the country.. now we can only pray that the thiugs of inner city Chicago will band together and attack ISIS rather than their neighbors.. Of course.. if ISIS is a smart as they want us to believe.. ISIS will stay out of Chicago altogether and just claim responsibility for all the shootings taking place.

From the 'speaking of Feinstein" department - Online story: "Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) said she backs President Obama’s diplomacy with Iran as the best deal that’s going to get done; she believes the Iranians are “sincere” in wanting a deal; and she disagrees that the broad outlines of the deal threaten the survival of Israel. * Jim Acosta, hosting CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday, asked Feinstein if she thinks Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu is “overstepping his bounds as a head of state” by lobbying against the framework agreement in favor of a better deal. * “Well, I think he’s said what he’s had to say,” Feinstein replied. “And to be candid with you, this can backfire on him. And I wish that he would contain himself, " -- "Iran sincere"? "Netanyahu contain himself"? Good grief.. California DESERVES ISIS!

Online headline: "Wow. 47 Major Retailers Announce Closing of 6,000 Stores Across the Country" -- You know.. the minimum wage just may go to $15.00 a hour...but there won't be jobs for those who are minimum employees.. now laid off middle management types will get those $15.00 per hour lower end jobs..

L-E headline: "ECONOMY REBOUNDING WITH SOLID JOB GAINS" -- How can anyone believe an Obamageddon update.. just look at the real facts in the item above...

Online story: "Shocking revelations show that at least four Clinton Foundation board of directors have either been charged or convicted of financial crimes, including bribery and fraud. * The most well-known of these board members is Vinod Gupta. * In 2008 he was charged with fraud by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for using company funds to support his luxurious lifestyle. He was alleged to have used more than $9.5 million in corporate funds to pay for personal jet travel, millions for his yacht, personal credit card expenses, and the cost of twenty cars. He settled with the SEC for $4 million. * Gupta also paid Bill Clinton a $3 million “consulting fee,” an act of misuse of corporate funds that brought shareholders to file a suit against him. The company eventually settled with shareholders to the tune of $13 million, Clinton Cash reports. * Another such person involved with financial irregularities is foundation trustee Sant Chatwal, who has convictions for illegal campaign financing, obstruction of justice, and a list of other charges. * Then there is trustee Victor Dahdaleh, who “was charged by the Serious Fraud Office (SFO) in Great Britain with paying more than 35 million pounds in bribes to executives in Bahrain to win contracts of more than 2 billion pounds,” the book notes. * Finally, there is current Clinton Foundation board member and trustee Rolando Gonzalez Bunster, who “has been named in a fraud case in the Dominican Republic involving his company InterEnergy. The charges were filed by the Dominican government’s Anti-Corruption Alliance (ADOCCO). In 2013, Bunster was charged along with officials of a government agency concerning alleged ‘ballooned’ fees charged to the government." -- Wait a minute.. there wasn't even a discussion on Chelsea's father-in-law Edward Mezvinsky, who was indicted and later pleaded guilty to 31 of 69 felony charges of bank fraud, mail fraud, and wire fraud.[12] Nearly $10 million was involved in the crimes. You know.. Chelsea and her husband have an unusual distinction... one has a father-in-law convicted of felony bank charges, abd the other has a father-in-law who is an impeached former president.

Online headline: "Bill Clinton Puts Blame for Family’s Scandals on Accountant" -- Hmmm... and we wondered where Obamageddon learned how to point his constant "finger of blame" at everybody but himself...
---
Random thought: "I know security guards are required on school campuses, but why do they parade around in shirts and cars that read, "Police"? It just doesn't seem right...
---
Online headline: "School district says feds forced policy that allows transgender kids to use bathrooms of their choice" -- good grief.. the Fairfax County, VA Public Schools School Board has adopted the Obamageddon/Clinton "finger-of-blame at everyone else" defense.. well, there is a way to stop it.. stop accepting federal funds that dictate policy.. those funds for other programs are not enough to pay for them anyway, so cut the fed cord loose!
---
Online headline: "HILLARY: GROWING UP IN CHICAGO AREA, IT WAS ‘FARMS FIELDS AS FAR AS THE EYE COULD SEE’" -- Good grief.. finally an answer we can confirm as truthful.. we now know where and when she learned to throw pig slop!
---
L-E story: "After years of sharing power, David Cameron pulled off an unexpected election triumph that gave the Conservative prime minister a second term with an outright majority Friday and dealt a stinging defeat to his three main rivals." -- Good grief.. a liberal overdose on their own concepts ... why does mainstream media not realize that it doesn't reflect the majority opinion.. it just has better access to TV cameras, and buys ink by the barrel...
---
L-E guest commentary: " If you like President Barack Obama’s constitutionally dubious expansions of presidential power, you’ll love President Hillary Clinton." -- See! I told you Bernie Sanders getting into the race would be the worst thing Hillewinsky could experience.. now she has to "out left" an avowed socialist to appeal to mainstream media and the big money donors of Democrats.
---
L-E guest commentary: "Carson too liberal for far right?" -- Liberals just cannot get over a black Republican candidate who wants to help, not hinder, black progress in America.
---
L-E headline/story: "Atlanta schools release study on impact of cheating scandal * the district’s students are 75 percent black, but researchers found 98 percent of students with 10 or more erasure marks were black." -- Oh... then the teachers/administrators involved were racists as well as cheaters...
