Maybe Trump should describe his plans for the wall based on he's now for "Climb-it Change " . PeLOUSY would have all Democrats supporting in by supper time.

What is it with CNN....after 2+ years of unwarranted public flogging, MSM-13 is horrified that Trump is effervescent about the Mueller Report. Trump took more low blows than Rocky did in the ring so he deserves his moment of exoneration!

From the "it depends" department - Online story: "Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., on Monday expressed shock over the price of a croissant at a New York City airport and used it to make a point about raising the minimum wage. * “Croissants at LaGuardia are going for SEVEN DOLLARS A PIECE,” Ocasio-Cortez tweeted, adding a “Scream” emoji. “Yet some people think getting a whole hour of personal, dedicated human labor for $15 is too expensive?” _- Good grief.. Good grief! Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's anger about the cost of living in New York City would be better served by going after Mayor de Bl@sio...de Bl@sio just got a new tax to go into effect in 2020 to charge cars an $11.52 per day tax to drive into New York City. The $7.00 charge at the airport is probably just another de Bl@sio "tax" to catch all the New Yorkers who are fleeing NYC to live anywhere else.

I was looking at a series of LA/Hollywood and San Francisco celebrities' mansions... and thought to my self.. these overly pious advocates for humanity issues probably have enough unused bedrooms in their collective mansions to eliminate all the homeless people from the streets of their cities. Hey, Michael Moore.. make a movie about this!

Biden is finally getting his due...well, since he Mueller Report didn't fare well for them, I guess the Democrats/MSM-13 needed a fall guy to sacrifice so Gov Northam, Jussie Smollett, and Gov Hickenlooper don't have to explain their various perversions.

Though meant as an April Fools Day joke, Tim Chitwood's column did touch too close to reality to totally ignore it...so if the Government Center runs short of helmets, perhaps people can be given orange barrels to protect themselves....there's certainly no shortage of them here in Columbus.

From the "new math certainly is a liars best friend" department - Online headline/story: "Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh takes indefinite leave of absence amid book controversy * In a letter released earlier Monday, Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan, a Republican, called on the state prosecutor to investigate allegations of self-dealing by Pugh. State Comptroller Peter Franchot, a Democrat, urged the mayor to step down immediately. * Hogan and Franchot's calls came hours after health care firm Kaiser Permanente disclosed to The Baltimore Sun that between 2015 and 2018, it paid $114,000 for roughly 20,000 copies of Pugh's self-published "Healthy Holly" children's book series. * Since 2011, Pugh has received $500,000 for selling the books to the University of Maryland Medical System (UMMS), The Associated Press reported. The $4 billion hospital network, one of the largest private employers in the state, reportedly paid Pugh for 100,000 copies of her books between 2011 and 2018. * Additionally, The Sun reported that CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield, another city health provider, effectively bought Pugh's roughly 20-page illustrated books for $14,500 in 2011 and 2014. In an email, CareFirst said it made contributions to Associated Black Charities, a nonprofit that manages the city's Children and Youth Fund, to fund its purchase and distribution of books. * The firm Pugh identified as her books' printer said it produced only 60,000 copies and did not have any more orders from Pugh." -- Let me get this right.. 60,000 books were printed.. and one medical company bought 20,000 copies, another bought 100,000 copies, and another about $14,000.00 worth of them (number undisclosed).. So far, that sounds like 120,000 copies (plus the $14,000.00 worth) yet only 60,000 were initially printed. Sounds like a scam and political bribery.

Bernie says that if he is elected, he will cut prescription drug prices in half. Hmmm...I know of but one way he can do that, and that would be to Nationalize..like Cuba..private businesses, which, for all intents and purposes, would mean that there wouldn't be profits to tax for operating revenue..

It's not like the lethal injection is suppose to give him new life!Oh,, and my second question is, "Why doesn't the lawyer just shoot his client so his death sentence won't cause him any more suffering?

I've enjoyed not seeing Geraldo on Fox News recently. Today, he confirmed why I feel this way. He criticized Trump for stopping foreign aid to Central American countries because the money is needed to improve the conditions for the citizens there. DOH! That's exactly why Trump is right to stop those funds.. they don't get to the people's needs as it is.

Online story: "Computer science courses will be required in every Georgia high school, if new legislation is signed into law. * Senate Bill 108 requires a course in at least one high school in every school district by the fall of 2022 and in half the high schools per district the next year. The course would have to be available in every public high school by the 2024-25 school year. * Less than half a percent of high school graduates have taken computer science, his bill says, yet there are “thousands” of unfilled jobs. And the logic learned in computer science can be generally applied." -- Good grief.. when I ran for Mayor of Columbus in 1990.. that's almost 30 years ago now, I made the statement that all our high schools should be required.. mandated... to teach computer spread sheet math and a computer English writing courses to all Juniors and Seniors so that they would be prepared to either go to college or enter the work field with the needed skills. Where did these 30 year go that it's now finally being addressed?
