Online story: "On Monday, President Donald Trump signed an executive order that put a freeze on federal hiring, except for national security employees, specifically those working with the "military, public safety, and public health. * Although the previous administration accelerated hiring in an attempt to get employees settled in before Trump's administration began, some employees who were hired but have not yet started work may be affected by the freeze as well." -- Good grief.. why would any in coming president want to accept hirees made by the outgoing administration during its final "lame duck" days?

Online headline: "Kellyanne Conway 'didn't see the point' of the Women's March" -- "didn't see the point"?  Well, has anyone ever seen "the point" of any liberal "point"?

Online story: "An Indiana state senator is drawing heat after apparently sharing a derogatory Facebook post about this weekend's Women's March. * Indiana Sen. Jack E. Sandlin shared a post that said, "In one day, Trump got more fat women out walking than Michelle Obama did in eight years." -- Senator Sandlin may or may not be able to weather the assault he'll get from mainscream media, but see what we've missed because of "political correctness". "Political Correctness" has created an atmosphere that we cannot laugh at ourselves as well as others. It is a funny .. pretty true (though "insensitive" for liberals) analogy.. and it probably will inspire a lot of people, women AND men, to get back out on a walking regimen which will be beneficial for our/their health.

From the "is there nothing that pleases liberals" department - Online headline: "Anti-Trump protesters eyeing Tax Day march" -- Good grief.. Trump just pledged to lower their taxes, and stop IRS's punitive OObamaCRAP tax, and liberals.. (you know.. those people who want to spend other people's money..only) are going to march against this, too?

---
You know.. if liberals went to work on the days they plan marches, they'd earn enough to be content and not want to march.

HuffPOOPOO  headline: "'SNL' writer gets brutal punishment for Barron tweet" -- .. An indefinite suspension is "brutal".. Good grief.. all this means is SNL hasn't thought of a skit to highlight bashing Trump's 9 year old child in a way it feels it can get away with it. In my book, "brutal" would have been not only to have a clip of Donald saying "You're Fired", but also to ban her from returning to the show.. Of course, neither of my thoughts will happen.

Now we hear that Hellary supporters were harassing and spitting on Gold Star family members as they tried to enter the Armed Forces hosted Inaugural Ball. What hypocrites! These are Hellary's personal "deplorables" basket.

---
I heard a Fox News anchor say that President Trump has gotten off to a rough start with the media. Huh? Mainscream media has been.on Trump on every issue .. real and the ones mainscream media has manufactured since Trump first announced his candidacy.

---
Why do Sen. Schumer and Queen Pelosi think they are in control of Trump..Trump won without either Schumer's state of NY, nor Pelosi's state of California. My advice to not only those two, but to every other Democrat fortunate enough to still be in Washington, is to remember who the American public supports.

---
You know...without California and New York which account for 84 Electoral Votes, Hellary only got 148 other states Electoral College votes, and if Schumer and Pelosi don't cooperate better with Trump, Democrats may have trouble getting back in the White House again.

---
What a difference...Bernard Spicer vs any of the 3 Obama picks as Press Officer. After 8 years of listening to people twist words and thoughts trying to cover Obama's butt, hearing Spicer answer press questions with facts is wonderful.

---
Trump had great day...especially with working Americans...the Unions are not eager to go back to being Democrat lap dogs.

I heard more hatred, trash, and phobia coming out of Madonna's mouth that was worse than anything that she was trying to paint Trump with.

L-E story: "“The economic forecast for Columbus calls for job growth to accelerate,” said (Billy) Blanchard, recently retired president of Columbus Bank and Trust and now a partner in Jordan-Blanchard Capital. “The economy will do significantly better in 2017 than it did in 2016 and tremendously better than it did in 2015." -- Hmmm.. I guess now that Tom-LYING-son is in her "lame duck" period, facts become evident as to who's fault the local economy has been...Now that Trump has been elected, and Columbus sees the end of the Tom-LYING-son fiasco, local businesses are excited about the future.

L-E headline/story: "Volunteers to count Columbus-PC homeless population this week * The survey of shelters, camps and programs that assist the homeless was conducted Jan. 24-25 in 2016. * There were 303 homeless residents — 217 who slept in shelters and another 86 who slept outside. The numbers are reported to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. * In January 2015, there were 371 homeless people reported to HUD. Those records show that 206 slept in shelters and 165 slept outside.

 -- Just curious, but wouldn't records kept by the Homeless Resources Network, Valley Rescue, Salvation Army, Damascus Way, Open Door, HUD, and SafeHouse Ministries et al be a good/better source to cross reference and get a pretty accurate number versus a one-shot canvassing?

LIV's L-E "soundoff": "If there’s one thing people learned from Republicans the past eight years, it’s how to disrespect the office of the President. Now it’s time to turn this illegitimate clown’s orange hair white." -- Good grief.. it took only two years before the nation kicked most Democrats out of Congress.. if there has been any "disrespect", it was by Obama who would not work with the Republican majority Congress for his last 6 years that America elected to speak for us.

L-E story: "The Georgia Supreme Court has corrected the sentencing but upheld the latest of Jerome Upshaw’s two Columbus murder convictions, this one the Dec. 7, 1996, death of Joanne Walton, whom he shot in the head and left to die alongside South Lump-kin Road. *  Upshaw already was serving a life sentence for another murder (2007 - Anthony King)  when cold-case investigators charged him with Walton’s homicide." --  Good grief.. why did the GA Supreme Court even hear this.. what difference did make other than  wasting the court's time, and wasting tax dollars while some lawyers got a few extra "paydays". Judge McBride should have also sentenced Upshaw for "existing".

L-E headline: "Judge asks GBI to investigate Muscogee County School District" -- While it wasn't for the reason I hoped the MCSB should be investigated, it shows an awful lot of civil cases involving MCSD employees/contract workers.. What we taxpayers need to worry about is the liability coverage provider, GSBA (Georgia School Boards Association) dropping the MCSD for excessive claims.

From the "if you're not for us, then you're agin us" department - L-E headline/story: "Trump may find it hard to make American economy greater * to come anywhere near his goals, economists say Trump would have to surmount at least a handful of major hurdles that have long defied solutions." -- You know.. it's only the liberals who aren't excited at the positive spin Trump and working America envisions.. I can only guess that the reason libs are "doom and gloom" is that if previous Democrat voters actually get "hope" and it comes true, they will abandon the libs/Democrats altogether.
