Soft-peddled online headline/story: "A former FBI staffer is reportedly being investigated over an altered document in the Russia probe * The staffer, a former FBI lawyer, is now under criminal investigation, according to CNN. -- Whoa! "staffer"? It's a little more complex than just a "staffer" when the staffer is actually a lawyer... A lawyer KNOWS when he/she is manipulating facts, and KNOWS the consequences.. This cannot be a situation of "I didn't know what I was doing was wrong".

Online headline: "Tesla reveals Cybertruck, a 6-passenger pickup featuring 3 motors, armored glass, and up to 500 miles of range" -- "armored glass"? That fits.. rumor has it that the entire production has be pre-bought by Mexican cartels and Californian politicians.

From the "Fredo" department - Online headline: "CNN's Chris Cuomo mocked after attempt to disprove Trump's phone theory with call to mom fails" -- Wow! Another FREDO moment for Cuomo... you just can't make this stuff up!

In a nutshell...President Trump wanted to assure the new Ukrainian president was following through on his campaign promises to end corruption , and the DemocRATs want to cover up the corruption involving the previous Ukrainian president and former US VP Joe Biden. Hmmm...now who should be facing charges?
 
---
Hmmm...Congressman Fulla Schi** says all of Trumps actions are purely political..hmmm seems to me the whole DemocRATic Party's agenda is purely political.. but there is one big difference...President Trump is always putting America first!

Update on the Virginia College property the City is buying:
From Councilor John House: "This is the official answer: "Building is owned by 5601 VPCG LLC (the property arm of Virginia College) as the tenant under a bond lease with the Development Authority with the right to purchase. Purchase will result in no financial exchange between the city and the Development Authority." The city does not own the building. We are buying it to avoid future rent we have to pay because the State mandates that we provide space for the Department of Health. We will pay off the building in a few years and show an even greater savings for the taxpayers. We had to wait to tell everything due to the notifications required for the current lease. Please feel free to contact me directly at jmhouse6@gmail.com or house.john@columbusga.org.
 
My response back to Councilor House:
Considering all back taxes will be paid prior to closing.. and the City will get full possession of the building and the land, this is info we need... and deserve.. sounds like it may be one of the best y'all have come up with.. Now, keep the SPLOST requests just to solving the Government Center situation, and we may get our City back on track.. What we do not need is more negative-revenue-producing "wants" that inadequate maintenance drains the existing and foreseeable tax/fee revenue streams. Also.. in addition to keeping the wanted SPLOST request to JUST the Government Center issue, and NOT STARTING it until the T-SPLOST is completed, how about hiring a separate Architect to look over whichever Architect gets the project, and to be "on hand" to check the contractor's compliance with the re-checked plans, Seeing some of the issues that have come-up, I find it hard to believe that "code" was fully complied with when it was being built.

Councilman House added that Council has to be very careful not to build more things that the City can maintain. Apparently , Councilor Davis is thinking about that too.. But the reality is that: What we already HAVE is not properly maintained by the current revenue streams! The number one question has to be what are the predictable revenue streams 5. 10, 15 and 20 years down the road as current assets worsen, and new projects start deteriorating normally? I would love to see how much money has actually been spent maintaining the street in front of my house since 2000.. other than fixing A pothole at the path we had to travel in order to turn into our driveway, I cannot remember any other work being done, and I can see it affects the dollar value of our home downward.

Dr. Fiona Hill...maybe we should call her Dr. Flip-flop.. Now she claims that delaying military aid while the State Department ascertained assurances that Ukraine's president was following through with his campaign promises to rid the corruption was damaging to Ukraine, yet in 2015, she posted an op-ed commentary saying furnishing military aid to Ukraine would worsen issues for Europe with Russia...so Obama sent blankets instead instead of defensive arms.
 
---
Seeing as Congressman Fulla Schi** witness Dr Fiona Hill is a British citizen, shouldn't her "testimony" aimed at impeaching a US president be considered not only collusion, but foreign election interference/meddling?

From the "MSM-13 is as pathetic as Congressman Schi**'s impeachment witnesses" department - Online story: "President Donald Trump hosted a previously undisclosed dinner with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook board member Peter Thiel at the White House in October * “As is normal for a CEO of a major U.S. company, Mark accepted an invitation to have dinner with the President and First Lady at the White House,” a Facebook spokesperson said in an emailed statement. * It is unclear why the meeting was not made public or what Trump, Zuckerberg and Thiel discussed." -- Good grief! MSM-13 feels nothing in President Trump's life can be considered normal... what next.. MSM-13 files an "information request" for tapes of President Trump going to the bathroom?

I like Congressman Doug Collins...I think he stands up for his district, GEORGIA, America, and our President. I do not believe he's the one who should be appointed to replace Isakson. I don't believe his image is one that is electable statewide at this time.

You know, I use to respect Chris Wallace as a journalist. It's not that I agreed with him so much, but Wallace usually offered a reasonable difference of opinion....not so much since Shepard Smith left...now Wallace appears to lean further left like he feels he's going to give him an edge on landing that spot for himself.

From the "what does the ACLU stand for now?" department - Online headline: "ACLU says, ‘Men who get their periods are men. Men who get pregnant and give birth are men’" -- I do believe the ACLU has rewritten its name.. and mission.. It was founded as the "American Civil Liberties Union". but now, it seems to have devolved into the "Anti-Christian Liberal's Universe". The "men" this is about are self-transgendered females .

Columbus L-E story: "Fired Columbus Police Sgt. William Talley shot paramedic Kelly Levinsohn in the back of the head with a .45-caliber semi-automatic pistol May 11, before he wrecked her truck off Interstate 185 in Harris County and threatened suicide during an overnight standoff with police, authorities say. * Talley by law was entitled to a bond because he had been jailed more than 90 days without indictment. He was placed under arrest May 12, while he still was in the hospital being treated for injuries from the truck crash off Interstate 185’s Exit 30. * On Nov. 1, Assistant District Attorney Robin King told McBride prosecutors had not submitted the case to a grand jury, because they had been awaiting the results of ballistics tests on the pistol, and those results had just come in. -- No indictment in 90 days because a key test takes nearly 6 MONTHS to process? How about more details! When did the DA REQUEST and submit the gun/bullet evidence for processing? What isn't the test facility held responsible for processing such vital evidence within a time frame that can be submitted to a Grand Jury within the 90 days required? Or, why hasn't the 90 day requirement been revised if processing cannot be done in that time frame?

From the "wait a minute.. do we hear the sound of sanity returning to CA?" department -
Columbus L-E headline/story: "Supreme Court rejects California law on tax returns * LOS ANGELES President Donald Trump does not have to disclose his tax returns to appear as a candidate on California’s primary ballot next spring, the state Supreme Court ruled unanimously Thursday. * “Ultimately, it is the voters who must decide whether the refusal of a ‘recognized candidate throughout the nation or throughout California for the office of President of the United States’ to make such information available to the public will have consequences at the ballot box,” Chief Justice Tani Cantil-Sakauye wrote in the 7-0 decision." This is a "Fred Sanford cry out to Elizabeth moment"! The California Supreme Court supported SANITY with a 7-0 decision!

Columbus Ledger-Enquirer headline: "Democratic debate in Atlanta breaks the mold" -- "breaks the mold"? The little bit I saw looked like it was mold-encrusted.

Columbus Ledger-Enquirer headline/story: "EPA prosecutions, convictions of polluters at quarter-century lows * EPA prosecutions, convictions of polluters at quarter-century lows * The Trump EPA says its emphasis is on working with polluters to bring them into compliance with public health and environmental protections but that it prosecutes when necessary." -- You know, the "real crime" was the overload of regulations imposed by previous administrations that Trump recognize were catalysts to ENDING jobs and industries that are important to our future but were closing or fleeing to other countries. Laws and regulations should be geared to making things better, not shutting them down. Trump 2020!

Columbus L-E headline/story: "Lawsuit: McDonald’s puts employees in physical danger *
A group of employees from 13 McDonald’s restaurants in Chicago filed a lawsuit Thursday alleging that the company’s drive for profits puts workers at “daily risk” of physical attack by dangerous customers. * In the lawsuit filed in Cook County court, the 17 workers say McDonald’s has failed to protect them from what they say is a “citywide and nationwide” pattern of violence and that police respond to more than 20 911 calls every day regarding Chicago McDonald’s restaurants. They cite several examples of the violence, including an incident in which a customer beat an employee with a sign and another in which a customer urinated on a worker. * “McDonald’s has failed, at a systemic level, to protect its workers from violence in the workplace,” said Danny Rosenthal, an attorney for the workers. “Throughout the country, McDonald’s workers are regularly threatened, assaulted and injured by customers.” -- Good grief! It's not McDonald's that's "failed" in keeping its employees safe, it's the Shicago government that has FAILED to keep the streets safe! Unfortunately, the lawsuit is filed against McDonald's ONLY because Shicago hasn't any money to pay off a big lawsuit!

From "now the truth comes out" department - Remember the shooting at Fresno this past week,, when 10 male Asians among 35 gathered in a party were shot.. and 4 died? Well, as Paul Harvey might say, "this is the rest of the story": Online story: "You may have seen the story about the shooting in Fresno yesterday. The details: members of one Fresno gang opened fire on members of a rival gang at a football watch party. Four died and six were wounded." Well, like Ambassador Sondland, this is exactly like we "Presumed", yet MSM-13 knew but didn't disclose actual FACTs. And we are in better position to PRESUME than Ambassador Sondland EVER was.
