From the "Bias? What bias?" department - Online headline/story: "States sue Trump in showdown over border wall funds * A coalition of 16 U.S. states led by California sued President Donald Trump's administration on Monday over his decision to declare a national emergency to obtain funds for building a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. - Hmmm... So, CA, CO, CT, DE, HI, IL, ME, MD, MI, MN, NV, NJ, NM, NY, OR, AND VA have nothing else to do but complain about Trump... what's new? all 16 of those states are traditionally Democrat havens (though MI voters did go for Trump, and 15 of those states have Democrat governors (and the sole Republican governor in MD is a RINO).. What the MSM-13 doesn't mention is 34 states agree with Trump that we need border security NOW!

From the "the times may be a'changin" department - Online headline: "Vans employee fired for allegedly cursing at MAGA hat-wearing teen" -- Good grief! Last year such an employee probably would have gotten a promotion and pay raise!

Setting the table: "Jussie Smollett said two white men wearing face masks and MAGA hats, cursed and slurred him and placed a rope around his neck and poured bleach on him. Police found videos and receipts showing to Nigerian brothers (one worked with Smollet) purchased such items at a Chicago Ace hardware store that same night:
 
From the "Fred Sanford.. I think it's the BIG one, Elizabeth: department - Online headline/story: "Al Sharpton says Jussie Smollett should ‘face accountability to the maximum’ if attack was orchestrated * "If it is found that Smollett and these gentlemen did, in some way, perpetrate something that is not true, they ought to face accountability to the maximum,” Sharpton said referring to the actor and two men linked to him who have been questioned by police. “Let us get to the bottom of it, and let justice be done, no matter who is right or wrong.” -- It's close, but Al Sharlatan still hasn't come full circle in making up for his many "rush to judgments" in the past.

Question: Why weren't there any Democrats on hand with President Trump in Miami showing support for the victims of Socialism in Venezuela?
 
---
You know, it seems sorta backwards that MSM-13 will applaud Trump for supporting Juan Guaido as president of Venezuela versus MSM-13 encouraging all of our Democratic Party Socialists to go to Columbia and convince the Venezuelan wannabee-refugees they should go back and learn to love Maduro.

The only thing for certain is KaeperPRICK exposed his journey was one of capital gain rather than one of principle. Settling for any amount.. whether the rumored $80 Million.. or whether $1.00, settling without a jury verdict proves this.

Trip down memory lane... was looking at our microwave oven the other day.. and suddenly had a flashback to our family's first one.. Remember when microwave ovens had an actual door locking mechanism you had to engage before it would operate?
 
---
From the "Elizabeth Barrett Browning, "how stupid is she.. let me count the way" department - Online headline: "Ocasio-Cortez raises eyebrows after comparing Trump's border wall to Berlin Wall" -- Good grief! The Berlin Wall was built to keep East Germans from leaving, our border security wall is to keep illegal entry of non-citizens/ criminals, and drugs.

You know, the only thing that happens when you raise the minimum wage is that you usually get the same level of minimum effort regardless of how much the minimum wage is.
 
---
From the "he's b-a-a-c-c-c-k-k-k-k" - department - Online headline: "Ex-Congressman Anthony Weiner Finishes Prison Term" -- and though "separated", Carlos Danger is still married to Huma Abedin, Hellary's "confidant".... Wow..as if the Democrats didn't have enough image issues to deal with.

Online headline/story: "Alabama-born ISIS wife who reportedly told Americans to kill themselves now begging to come home * Muthana now has an 18-month-old son from one of her ISIS marriages." -- Not just no.. HELL NO! This would open avenues for anchor baby and familial chain migration for enemies of our country!

Online commentary headline/story: "Black female senator: My arrest shows the bias that still exists in justice system * Nikema Williams, Opinion contributor * After last week's State of the Union address, I sat in a local union hall watching Stacey Abrams offer a call to action for our democracy — the kind that Georgia and our country desperately need. * "This is the next battle for our democracy," she said, "one where all eligible citizens can have their say about the vision we want for our country. We must reject the cynicism that says allowing every eligible vote to be cast and counted is a 'power grab.' -- "reject the cynicism that says allowing every eligible vote to be cast"? You know.. I honestly believe no eligible voter in GA believes another eligible voter in Georgia vote should not have his/her vote counted.. that said, every eligible voter in Georgia should WANT every vote to be cast by a proven citizen of GA.. and voter ID is the best way to do this.

Another jury fail - M/C L-E headline/story: "Jury finds half-brother not guilty * A Columbus jury found Roger T***** not guilty of murder Monday in the 2015 fatal shooting of his half-brother during a birthday party at T****s’ 435 Bernard Drive apartment. *
T***** also was acquitted of all other charges, including aggravated assault and using a firearm to commit a felony. * Defense attorney S***** J****** said he felt the verdict validated a “textbook case for self defense,” -- Once again, common sense loses.. there should be no self defense claims when guns, alcohol and illegal drugs are knowingly present... the law has already been broken.

M/C L-E headline/story: "Georgia high court: DUI test refusal can’t be used in court * A driver’s refusal to submit to a breath test cannot be used as evidence in a criminal trial for driving under the influence, Georgia’s Supreme Court ruled Monday, throwing out that part of the state’s DUI laws as unconstitutional. * The high court unanimously agreed the provision violated the Georgia Constitution’s protection against self-incrimination. * This Court cannot change the Georgia Constitution, even if we believe there may be good policy reasons for doing so; only the General Assembly and the people of Georgia may do that. And this Court cannot rewrite statutes,” Peterson wrote in the opinion. * In a concurring opinion, Justice Michael P. Boggs noted the scope of the ruling was limited to circumstances involving a criminal proceeding. He wrote that a driver’s refusal to take a breath test still could be used in an administrative proceeding for a driver’s license suspension." -- Good grief! Our GA Supreme Court has just altered the status provided by the issuance of a driver's license.. now it's also a permit to kill! Getting a driver's license is not a "right".. it's an earned privilege and carries stated and implied conditions.. The GA Supreme Court just may have established precedence that the state cannot require testing in order to get a driver's license as physical conditions of the applicant could be compromised at the moment of testing!

How come Columbus Council Agenda wasn't published in the L-E this week? Surely Council and the L-E feel that public awareness should be of concern...
