Today we celebrate Memorial Day to honor our fallen heroes serving our county's military.. but, also, let's not forget that the Biden Pentagon despots denied "Rolling Thunder" access to the Pentagon Parking Area to congregate and meditate.

There's a "progressive" TURNOUT PAC that is soliciting money to "save our Democracy" ...TURNOUT PAC surely is going about it backwards, though.. To save our Democracy (Actually we are a "Limited Republic") TURNOUT PAC should be working hard to insure the right to vote in our country is limited to US citizens that are alive, law abiding, and mentally capable of marking/casting their own ballots.

Online headline: "Governor Ron DeSantis Calls on Biden Administration to Approve Florida’s Canadian Prescription Drug Importation Program" -- It's sad that DeSantis has to go outside this country to get better drug prices just because Medicare/Medicaid is prohibited from negotiating better prices with de=rug manufacturers... Trump was trying to fix this, and Biden has already abandoned the effort.

From the "Dreams do come true!" department - Online headline: "Fox News drama: Juan Williams reportedly forced out at "The Five" by co-host Greg Gutfeld" -- "Forced out"? Well, it's been Whine Williams who has balked at returning in person to the studio set, and since Whine stopped being able to defend Biden and MSM lies about the China Virus over the past 12 months, Whine doesn't want to face the other "FOUR" in person.

Online headline/story: "Biden received funds from top Russia lobbyist before Nord Stream 2 giveaway * The DNC said they had returned the funds in the midst of declining to enforce sanctions on Russia * Richard Burt, a managing partner at McLarty Associates and a former U.S. ambassador to Germany during the Reagan administration, ponied up $4,000 for Joe Biden in October 2020 and dropped another $10,000 in the lefty-aligned political action committee Unite The County in March 2020, FEC records show. * In addition to violating Biden’s own campaign pledge not to take lobbyist cash, the money from Burt is particularly noteworthy as he is currently directly engaged in lobbying activities for Nord Stream 2 AG. * When Richard Burt donated to Biden Victory Fund, he failed to acknowledge that he was a registered foreign agent and was therefore ineligible to contribute," a Democratic National Committee spokesman told The Post. "Because Burt also listed a different employer than on his [Foreign Agents Registration Act] registration, he was not flagged during our vetting process."" -- "The DNC said they had returned the funds in the midst of declining to enforce sanctions on Russia"? * The DNC said it returned the cash on Thursday after The Post’s inquiry." -- "The DNC said it returned the cash on Thursday after The Post’s inquiry"? .. hmmm returned.. but only AFTER getting caught with their hands in the cookie jar!

From the "Strike 2!" department - Online headline/story: "I watched a documentary on the History Channel about Tecumseh narrated by "current liberal educators". Good grief... if these "educators" are ad been around during my formative years, I'd never have passed a history test. * "Just ask any Marine today, would she rather carry 20 pounds of batteries or a rolled up solar panel, and I am positive she will tell you a solar panel, and so would he," she said, before laughing. * Critics on Twitter were quick to note that solar panels generally still require batteries to store energy as it’s collected from sunlight" -- Good grief... just last week, Prez JoKKKe Biden "bombed" on a joke to the Coast Guard Academy graduates, and now VP Harris has done the same with our Marines.. Let's pray that Queen PeLOUSY doesn't address the graduates at West Point or Annapolis...

Prez JoKKKe Biden just submitted a $6,000,000,000,000.00 dollar budget, with increases for every department except... except the Department of Homeland Security for Border Security....which, at this point could easily be construed as treasonous.

About JoKKKe Biden's $6 TRILLION DOLLAR budget... he campaigned on a "public option" healthcare initiative, yet he doesn't mention one in this budget proposal.

While it was embarrassing to a fault for Atlanta Councilman/Mayoral candidate Antonio Brown to have his car stolen , it was even more embarrassing for him to learn it was stolen by kids aged 6-to-12. Then Brown announced he would not be filing charges against them. Good grief! Letting 6-to-12 year olds off without even a wrist slap is as irresponsible as a politician get! Can you imagine how little respect for laws, and law enforcement these kids will have when they reach age 16?

From the "he's at it ... again!" department - Online headline/story: "‘Looks like she’s 19’: Uproar after Biden’s remarks about girl at Virginia military base * he lavishly complimented a little girl on her appearance during remarks at a Virginia military base. * “I love those barrettes in your hair, man,” Biden said. “I tell you what, look at her, she looks like she’s 19 years old, sitting there like a little lady with her legs crossed.” * The girl in question, who appeared to be elementary school age, had joined her parents and two older brothers on the podium while her mother introduced the president" -- JoKKKe Biden has a l-o-n-g history of similar creepy indiscretions and it will happen again and again when he's not locked away in the basement areas of his home or White House.. 25th Amendment?

Hey, Columbus citizens! A fellow BCer has come up with a way to get truck drivers to see the piles of debris.

Online story: "President Biden, addressing the evolving landscape of foreign threats to the country, told troops Friday that China thinks it will "own America" in the next 15 years. * "I've spent more time with President Xi [Jinping] of China than any world leader has," Biden said * "He firmly believes that China, before the year 2035, is going to own America, because autocracies can make quick decisions," -- "because autocracies can make quick decisions"?

Newton Gingrich presented a great idea to hold China responsible for all the damages and grief caused to American families by Covid-19. Gingrich suggested a 30% tariff on all imports from China and that the receipts be placed on a trust fund for which families can file lawsuits to recover their losses and get compensated for their pain and suffering. The tariff would stay on until all the lawsuits had been satisfied. This would cripple the Chinese Communist's economy as well as China's current weapon development.

Online headline: "Biden calls recent spike in anti-Semitic attacks ‘despicable, unconscionable, un-American’" -- Funny, though, even suspect... since antisemitism seems to be one of the planks in the Socialist-Democrat platform...

Let's get something cleared up.. "Undocumented" and "illegal" immigrants don't exist! Immigrants are those non-US Citizens who have entered our country legally and until they commit crimes, are welcomed to stay depending the conditions applied when they got here. "Illegal aliens" are non-US citizens who entered our country without following the rules established for immigration. Illegal aliens should not be treated... nor welcomed ... as immigrants..

You know, when Socialist-Democrats complain about America's billionaires, they never mention how many jobs they have created while attaining such wealth.. nor have a clue what will happen if billionaires decide to close those businesses because they have "achieved enough".

JoKKKe Biden keeps saying he's not going to raise taxes on anyone making $400K but he's not mentioning that he is actively aiming at ending the tax rate cuts initiated by President Trump. This means that 65% of all taxpayers will have their taxes increased.

WTVM-TV9 headline/story: "Columbus | Early voting underway to fill Muscogee County School Board seat * You can cast your ballot at the City Services Center on Macon Road. * The candidates are Bart Steed and Nickie Tiller (sic) --- First, you would think that a professional journalist would spell the candidates names correctly.. Hey Columbus... especially WTVM... It's spelled TILLERY...and she is the only candidate with school aged children.. She's getting my vote. Oh... and why doesn't the City Election Board designate an Early Voting Center in a facility in DISTRICT 2?

Correction: I made a typo error in calculating our projected "homicide rate for 2021 based on 31 homicides through May 26th.. I said the annual rate was between 89/90, but when I rechecked my figures, caught my error but forgot to change it in Friday's blog.. The correct rate is between 77/78.. I mention this only because we need o deal in reality... This isn't a relief moment.. this would be a drastic increase over last years RECORD number of 46/47 homicides!

There's another.. and probably more effective than passing another law.. to keep transgender "females" from competing in women/girls sports ... sue the individuals for "cultural infringement". Look at how suits/complaints have been filed for using make-up altered white actors in roles of Blacks and Asians.... it should work for males claiming they are females.

Anybody heard anything about the lawsuits filed on behalf of Nick Sandmann against all the MSMs that slandered him on his high school trip to Washington. We know NBC eagerly settle for $250 million as did the Washington Post, and CNN settled for an undisclosed amount

Online story: " The Biden administration must tackle corruption and social inequality in Mexico and Central America if it wants to bring about an orderly migrant flow, human rights activists say." -- "Biden Administration MUST tackle corruption and social equality in Mexico and Central America"? Excuse me.. Where is our Constitution... or the Constitutions of Mexico and ant Central American country, is America granted permission to tackle other countries' internal issues.. If these "activists" are so concerned. they should get their friends and move to these counties , become citizens of hose countries, and work hard to get to correct the issues legally and from within.
Online story: "The Biden administration in March asked for help from Mexico and Guatemala to manage migrant flows at their common border." -- Good grief.. If Mexico and Guatemala had any respect for Biden, they would have just kept their promises made with President Trump...
Have you noticed... notice that suddenly there's no mention of Bill Gates' divorce in active conversation...
From the "now, my next question is..." department - Online headline/story: "Republicans block independent commission to investigate attack on U.S. Capitol * Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, ripped her colleagues who opposed the Jan. 6 bill, accusing her party of bending to electoral concerns while "there's more to be learned." --- Hmmm.. could Alaska Sen Murkowski's vote have been influenced (BOUGHT) by Biden allowing a $2 BILLION dollar oil contract being made in Alaska??
---
From the "maybe now is a good time to take a 25th Amendment stance on Bernie Sanders" department - Online headline: "Bernie Sanders Compares Republican Tactics to China's 'Growing Authoritarianism'" -- Good grief.. I do believe China has always been 100% "Authoritarian" so how do they "grow" that, but to feel that the Republican Party to China is quite a stretch.. especially when it's Socialist-Democrat JoKKKe Biden who bypasses even PeLOUSY by signing Executive Orders.
---
From the "worse than 'new math' " department - Online story: "When U.S. Census Bureau workers couldn’t find out any information about some households after repeatedly mailing them questionnaire reminders and sending census takers to knock on their doors, the statisticians turned to an obscure, last-resort statistical technique known as “imputation.” * Imputation involves using information about neighbors with similar characteristics to fill in head counts or demographic characteristics for households lacking data. For instance, a rowhouse with no information may be counted as having two people if a neighboring rowhouse is occupied by two people. The technique tends to be utilized in hard-to-count places, often with racial and ethnic minorities, where people haven’t answered the census questionnaire and could otherwise go uncounted." -- Good grief! In other words, EENIE, MEENIE, MINY, MOE! The Census cannot account for diversity by labeling possibly non-existent persons! The "solution" would be to check community databases.. if it's a private residence, ask the mortgage holder.. if it's a rental, ask the landlord...
---
Online headline: "Biden asks Americans to choose country over party as restrictive Texas voting bill advances" -- Hmmm... funny, he never asks PeLOUSY... or the Democrat voter base..to do the same.

The 100th "Anniversary" of the OKLAHOMA MASSACRE...I don't understand why the Democrats are pushing this so hard...the OK governor then was a Democrat, and the preceding four OK governors, and the subsequent thirteen OK governors were ALL DEMOCRATS!

Online headline: "Barbara Comstock: If Trump disappeared there wouldn't be many Republicans in the search party" -- But more relevant would be no Republicans planning to "search" their ballots and vote for her.

From the "DOH!" department - Online headline: "Miami police chief calls for 'serious prison time' for illegal gun possession after latest mass shooting" -- DOH! It's about time!
---
Good grief! The initial nonchalantly reported car wreck at Country Club Road and Cherokee Avenue apparently was not so nonchalant.. apparently it was basically an attempted GANG attempt "hit"... a car was forced into a wall, and the following vehicle occupants unloaded a slew of bullets that indiscriminately raked the Country B=Club Apartments as law abiding citizens slept. More apparently is that Columbus' Police Chief needs to follow Miami, FL's Police chief and demand that all illegal gun possessors be given "SERIOUS PRISON TIME"... and without parole!
---
Yes! WTVM-TV9 headline/story: "New VA clinic named after former Columbus Mayor Bob Poydasheff * The new clinic is currently under construction and is expected to open in March of next year and will provide a wide range of medical services to veterans in the Chattahoochee valley. * “The naming of this clinic for Bob Poydasheff honors a great champion for veterans in this community, an exceptional soldier, public servant, and a dear friend of longstanding,” said Congressman Sanford Bishop. * Congressman Drew Ferguson also added, “I’m proud to introduce this legislation alongside Congressman Bishop to rename the Columbus VA facility to celebrate his legacy and preserve his memory.” -- While the article FAILS to mention that "Uncle Bob" Poydasheff was also Col. (RET) Bob Poydasheff!

Online headline: "Matthew McConaughey speaks out against mask hesitancy amid rumors he's running for Texas governor" -- Based on McConaughey's campaign motivation , he should have supported Trump, not Biden in 2020.

Good grief! Council has bought 8 $250,000.00 automated recycling pick-up vehicles but didn't have the foresight to order the 92-gallon containers need to use them properly and it will take 90 +/- days to procure them... Excuse me, but how did this "escape" discussion at the time Council voted to buy the trucks? Seems like some bungler needs to be fired.

Has anyone else heard of a private sector organization that requires a two-thirds quorum for a meeting to start or continue a meeting? Me neither, but apparently the Texas House of Representatives has one which basically means either party can basically stranglehold legislation by just not being in the building. I could be wrong, but I'll bet that's a policy installed long ago by Democrats... The Democrats used it last night to block improved voting safety legislation.
