From the "no rush to judgment... BUT" department - Online headline/story: "Five Houston officers shot; two suspects dead * The officers were shot when they tried to enter a home in southeast Houston to serve a warrant shortly before 5 p.m., Acevedo said. * The investigation began after a neighbor told police that the suspects were dealing black tar heroin out of the home," -- "black heroin"? A little research shows that this is primarily a "product" of Mexico and Central America.. don't tell me a decent security wall wouldn't help...

From the "who do the Dems feel the are kidding" department - Online headline/story: "Dems fear Trump re-election if ex-Starbucks CEO Schultz runs * "If Schultz entered the race as an independent, we would consider him a target... We would do everything we can to ensure that his candidacy is unsuccessful," said Patrick McHugh, executive director of Priorities USA, which spent nearly $200 million in the 2016 presidential contest. * Specifically, he seized on Schultz's apparent willingness to cut entitlement programs such as Medicare and Social Security to narrow the federal deficit" -- First.. Schultz on the Democrat ticket, couldn't beat Trump, but more blatantly, no one of the current Democrat hierarchy can either, and Schultz running may relegate the Democrat Party to 3rd place, but what scares the Dems even more is the public seeing what liberals feel about dismantling Medicare and Social Security, because the Dems always try to convince their base it's the Republicans who want to do that.

 

You know, personally, I'd love to see Starbuck Schultz run.. because the Dems would stop going there for coffee, and hopefully the chain would close down.

Online headline/story: "5 House freshmen get seats on panel probing Trump's WH * . five of the fieriest Democratic freshmen in the House are players on that stage... Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Katie Hill, Rashida Tlaib, Ayanna Pressley, and Harley Rouda, a former Republican who also represents a swing California district" -- In less than a month, we see the inflationary effects of PeLOUSY.. the "4 Jackasses of the Apocalypse" have now become the "5 Jackasses of the Apocalypse".

 

---
So PeLOUSY has re-sent Trump an invitation to do the SOTU on February 5th.. looks like that will be an instant replay of Trump's "sack" of the Democrats during a pregame shown interview before the Super Bowl.

Here's another "list".. this time from "Money Versed": Online headline: "20 Extravagant Celebrity Mansions That Prove The Rich And Famous Really Do Live Like Kings" -- Hmmm.. and they have a lot of things in common.. obsessive numbers of bedrooms/square feet, lots of walls and security systems, plus at least 19 of the owners would not vote for Trump or bring in homeless people on a cold night to get a good night's sleep.

 

---
Online headline: "Shutdown cost U.S. economy $11 billion, budget office says" -- Good grief.. and if PeLOUSY and Schumer just had given the money over to build the Wall, we'd have saved over $5 Billion right there!

You know, if you don't support President Trump on his security issues and concerns, it means you do support partial birth/infanticide. Let that that sink in ...

Online headline: "Meghan McCain decries Trump’s influence on Republican Party, prefers to call herself a conservative" -- "Conservative"? Who's defining 'conservative' for her..Bill Clinton?

 

---
Online headline: "Pelosi: Democrats Do 'the Lord's Work,' Republicans 'Dishonor God'
Excuse me M? PeLOUSY.. it's not Republicans fighting God's presence in our schools, courts, and government.

Steve Doocy was doing his "Man on the street" segment Monday on Fox & Friends, and he showed a man a picture of the Democrat candidates currently talking about running for president. Doocy pointed to one of them, and asked a man if he recognized him..The man said he thought it was the guy who lost in Texas. I tell you what, if Beto spent $80 MILLION, and a man on the street in NYC can't remember his name, he has no chance to win in 2020.

 

---
If Trump doesn't run in 2020, another Republican cannot win..all the Democrats have to do is for all the ones who have thrown their hat into the ring to vote for the last binary named candidate left standing.

 

---
I tell you what..if Nancy PeLOUSY reneges on her promise about honestly negotiating the Wall money, then when Trump re-closes the government, he should also issue an Executive Order locking Democrats out of their taxpayer funded Congressional offices and stop they and their staffs' payroll checks.

Cardinal Timothy Dolan of NY says we should not to consider that Governor Cuomo is a Catholic when talking about the up-to-birth abortion bill he just signed. Cardinal Dolan blasted Cuomo and everybody who feels there's anything right about a partial birth abortion.

Online story: "A gun-wielding good Samaritan brought a harrowing road rage incident to a safe end, reportedly stopping a driver who'd been racing through Massachusetts -- with a 65-year-old man clinging to the hood of his SUV. * An unidentified person ordered Mark Fitzgerald, 37, at gunpoint out of his SUV, allowing Richard Kamrowski to climb down from the car unscathed, police said. * “The SUV driver ultimately came to a stop, we believe with the intervention of some good Samaritans, and was taken into custody by responding troopers,” Massachusetts State Police spokesman David Procopio said." -- And the MA police arrested the driver and the Good Samaritan even though the man owned the gun and was licensed to have it! I'm sure justice WILL PREVAIL, but something about this is JUST WRONG!

M/C L-E headline: " imposes sanctions on Venezuelan oil" -- Hey,, here's another tip.. don't buy Citgo gasoline.. Citgo is owned by the Venezuelan government..

From the "good luck with that" department - M/C L-E story: "Anthony Davis’ agent says the five-time All-Star told the New Orleans Pelicans he wants to be traded to a contending team. * Agent Rich Paul confirmed the request to The Associated Press early Monday. ESPN first reported that Davis has told the Pelicans he wants to go elsewhere." -- Well, I'm sure every "contending team" have taken note... and scratched Davis' name off their "shopping list". Who wants to "gum up" a working team with a malcontent who hasn't shown he can make the team he's already on a contender?

From the "maybe we ought to rethink this" department - M/C L-E headline: "HIGH SCHOOL WRESTLING * Harris County wins team title at city championships; Smiths Station 2nd again" -- Hmmm.. how embarrassing.. a tournament to determine the best wrestling program in Columbus, and teams from other counties/states take the top 2 prizes.. and no local schools really came close...in fact, the 4 schools from outside Columbus took 4 of the top 7 finishes.
