HuffPOOPOO headline of CNN story: "Stephen Miller reportedly helped launch anti-Islamic terrorism group in college * White House senior policy adviser Stephen Miller..helped launch a controversial group while at Duke University, reports CNN. *  According to an archived website for the group, it was called the Terrorism Awareness Project, or TAP, and intended to make "students aware of the Islamic jihad and the terrorist threat, and to mobilize support for the defense of America and the civilization of the West." *  CNN reports that Miller had contributed writings to the group's effort, including one piece where he said, in part, "...our nation has failed to educate our youth about the holy war being waged against us and what needs to be done to defeat the Jihadists that are waging this war." -- "CNN reported"?  Imagine that.. CNN .. you know the network that WOULD NOT report the atrocities Saddam Hussein committed in his Baghdad Palace for "fear" that Hussein would not invite it's staff to Palace parties?

They killed him' * A shooting in Chicago has left a 2-year-old boy and an adult man dead Tuesday and startling footage of the assault, which also left a pregnant woman wounded, was posted live to Facebook." -- Wow.. and Rahm Emanuel is proud of Chicago being a "sanctuary city" where people are safe from police enforcing the law.

HuffPOOPOO story: " A New Jersey Muslim Civil Rights organization is calling for increased security for Muslim students after a poster calling for a "Muslim-Free America" was found Monday at Rutgers University." -- Wow.. you wonder how AOL/HuffPOOPOO hasn't discovered that the Quran advocates for a "Christian and Jewish Free WORLD"!

And now, from the "as Paul Harvey would say.. now, for the rest of the story" department - Online story: "Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway (ticker: BRK.A, BRK.B) shed $900 million in Wal-Mart Stores Inc (WMT) stock, reports Business Insider, echoing larger issues the retail industry is facing against fierce competition like Amazon.com (AMZN). *  Buffett has shifted focus – i.e. billions of dollars – toward airline stocks instead, like Southwest Airlines (LUV) and Delta Air Lines (DAL). He also increased shares in Bank of New York Mellon (BK), among other purchases." -- Well, well, well.. the REAL story here is that Buffet has finally ENDORSED Trump! Buffett recognizes how eliminating repressive taxes and EPA regulations will benefit air travel. Yep.. this is the REAL story, but mainscream media will not admit this.

You know, if the Fed had hinted at interest rate hikes when Obama was in office , or if, heaven forbid, Hellary had won,  the stock market would be sinking as we speak. Instead, Fed hints at rate hikes are being discussed because the economy is "perking" up because of the confidence industry has in Trump's vision and abilities to lead America back to world dominance.

A liberal spinmeister said OObamaCRAP has brought down healthcare cost.. Good grief, just a few years ago, healthcare was 14% of our GDP, and now it's 20%!.This has caused a huge drop in dispoable income which has caused the stagnation of our economy.

Athen's Banner-Herald online story: "ATLANTA | The Georgia brewery bill has turned into the booze bill. * Lawmakers combined legislation that allows breweries to sell directly to the customer with another proposal that would permit distilleries to do the same thing. * The bill cleared the House Regulated Industries Committee Tuesday and heads to the floor for a likely vote. It has strong support from many influential lawmakers. * The proposal would negate a Prohibition-era law that required distillers and brewers to use a distributor to get the product to the consumer." -- "would negate a Prohibition-era law that required distillers and brewers to use a distributor "?  Hmmm.. big... BIG question.. how many of these "influential lawmakers" have gotten clearance from Georgia Crown's Don Leeburn?

What a powerful sight...President and Mrs. Trump standing outside on the driveway in wait for the White House arrival of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Netanyahu. Our allies everywhere understand this, and Israel's enemies are put on alert.

Why does Fox continue to go to Lindsey Graham and/or John McCain for input/confirmation on current events? Neither one has any ongoing credibility as to what Trump or anyone else should do, nor even recommending who America needs to have credibility in?

L-E headline/story: "Businessman to buy historic downtown YMCA * The historic old downtown Columbus YMCA building, owned by First Presbyterian Church, is in the process of being sold to a local businessman, downtown resident and property owner. *  “The first thing that I want to do is get the building where we don’t have leaks or damage to the historical value,” Gamache said Wednesday morning. “This was one of the pieces of property that I rode by almost every day and I felt like it needed to be saved. And I am sure at some point somebody else has come in and did the same thing, but I am looking for opportunities to make my backyard a better place.” --  Don't you love it...NOT... when Columbus history is discussed.. and pertinent info is just omitted? Of course, in the L-E's situation. it's because there's no one there who really knows much about Columbus' early history. Joseph Albert Kirven, founder of Kirven's Department Stores was the president of the YMCA in 1903 (and years preceding it) and led the campaign to raise $10,000.00 to meet the challenge/condition of George Peabody to make the erection of the marble YMCA building happen.. It was his son and grandson that led the erection of the 1951 addition.. Knowing Jason Gamache.. he will do something good to revitalize this property.  Nice move, Jason!

Just looking back at the Michael Flynn resignation..You know. Flynn was wrong in how he handled things.. especially not in informing Trump and Pence of "everything". but the real issue here is the "leaks" from Obama holdovers to mainscream media (and who knows what other foreign entities), and mainscream media is basically giving the "leakers" amnesty.. .. Amnesty.. despite them walking around post-election with info that could damage America's security and with a know penchant to blab about it..

L-E story: "It once seemed replacing the historic Toomer’s Corner oak trees Auburn University students roll with toilet paper after football victories would be a once-in-a-lifetime event. * A crowd gathered at Toomer’s Corner on Feb. 14, 2015, to watch the iconic oaks replaced with new ones — a once-in-a-lifetime event, folks thought. And why not? The first ones lived more than a century. * It turned out to be a once-in-a-lifetime event only until the following July, when one of the replacement trees was replaced, having failed adequately to take root. * Fans were asked not to roll the trees again until the 2016 football season, when the custom resumed. Then the old tradition was back on track – until Sept. 24, when Jochen (_*_) set fire to the toilet paper draped on one of the new oaks after Auburn beat LSU 18-13. * The tree suffered extensive damage, and horticulturalists were left wondering whether the canopy would leaf out again. They finally decided the tree was not going to recover this spring, so it had to be replaced. Again." --  Ironically.. the old Toomer's Corner trees could end up at a wood processing plant on the Chattahoochee River and made into rolls of TP which could end up on the limbs of the new Toomer's Corner trees in the future..

L-E headline: "ROAD SAFETY * U.S. traffic deaths rise for a second straight year" -- I'm sure misuse of cellphones have been a major contributing factor.. and probably alcohol purchased at drive-in liquor stores, and non-use of seatbelts, too, but I notice no mention of unlicensed or even licensed illegal aliens was included in this story.

From the "it could get no scarier than this" department - L-E guest commentary headline/content: "Will casinos fix HOPE, other things? * BY KYLE WINGFIELD Atlanta Journal-Constitution * The casinos bill had its first hearing before a Senate committee this past week, and so far the discussion has little to do with whether it’s a good idea to open Georgia’s doors to an industry that would suck money out of residents’ pockets. It has much more to do with how to divvy up the state’s meager share of the loot. * Under the bill, the state would get 20 percent of casinos’ gambling revenues. " -- "the state would get 20 percent of the casinos’ gambling  REVENUES"? And you thought the interest rates that can be charged  on "Title Pawn/Loans" was criminal! If casinos are happy with giving 20% of their revenues (most likely this is a miscommunication of fact as it's more than likely 20% of "profits or "net"") just to get the doors open, what chance does any gambler have to leave such in any way but "broke".. and likely to need entitlement assistance to take food home to his/her children? If YOUR politician supports this bill, you should campaign to oust him/her from office!

L-E headline/story: "TEXAS GOVERNOR TELLS NFL ‘GET THE HECK OUT OF POLITICS’ * Texas Gov. Greg Abbott wants the NFL to keep its nose out of the state’s business, saying that it should “get the heck out of politics” as the state considers a so-called bathroom bill." -- Let's draft Abbott to run for governor of GA! My soon-to-be-5-years-old granddaughter is capable to go to a bathroom by herself.. pity the man who tries to go in there with her...
