We have got to do something about street violence in Columbus, GA. Went to my grand daughter's soccer game Saturday at THE Soccer Complex Saturday morning only to hear 2 different volleys of 3 and 4 gunshots within a block of the complex and Fort Middle School. It's not like this was unexpected for the area (other than it was MORNING versus night time) as someone was killed a couple of weeks ago just a block from the main entrance to THE Soccer Complex !!

Online headline: "It's not a matter of "if", but "WHEN" JoKKKe Biden will be whimpering, "It's Trump's fault!... Of course, we all KNOW that Obama/Biden left office with the pandemic closet of respirators, masks, and other emergency gear in worse shape than Old Mother Hubbard.." -- Hmmm... It's not a matter of "if", but "WHEN" JoKKKe Biden will be whimpering, "It's Trump's fault!... Of course, we all KNOW that Obama/Biden left office with the pandemic closet of respirators, masks, and other emergency gear in worse shape than Old Mother Hubbard.. oh! and don't forget how depleted Obama/Biden left our military defense closet... and budget... as well..

Online story: "Politico reported last week that Buttigieg had been on paid leave since mid-August to spend time with his husband, Chasten, and their twin babies * Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg defended paid family leave Sunday after Fox News host Tucker Carlson mocked him for taking paternity leave to care for his newborn twins. * "When somebody welcomes a new child into their family and goes on leave to take care of that child, that's not a vacation. It's work. It's joyful, wonderful, fulfilling work, but it is work," Buttigieg said" -- Hmmm.... Maybe JoKKKe Biden should have appointed a real mother to the Secretary of Transportation's job.. a real mother would know how to multi-task and not let transportation become a "supply chain" factor.
Oh, one other factor about Buttigieg's claim of family leave.. I do believe that a 12 month employment term is required for eligibility, and in August, he'd been "employed" less than 9 months...
FMLA rules:
ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEES
Only eligible employees are entitled to take FMLA leave. An eligible employee is one who:
1 - Works for a covered employer;
2 - Has worked for the employer for at least 12 months;

Where does Daniel Craig get the idea he's James Bond? He was "a" James Bond..and in spite of there being a 1954 attempt to make James Bond come alive, James Bond became incarnate in 1962 when Sean Connery emerged from the parade crowd, and looked out over the movie audience... I, and every other person, present whispered and pointed, "That's James Bond!"...everyone there had read most, if not all.. of Ian Fleming's books, and we all knew James Bond "on sight"...Sean Connery was.. will always be.. James Bond.

Online story: "President Joe Biden said that being a cop today is "harder than it's ever been" in a speech Saturday that he used to call for additional support and reforms for what he characterized as an increasingly burdened and dangerous profession." -- Hmmm ... but what he didn't say is Democrat Politicians are the reason WHY being a law enforcement officer is so much tougher/more dangerous...

A similar headline: "Biden pays tribute to fallen police officers, tells families that 'your loss is America's loss'" -- Hmmm...wonder how JoKKKe Biden explained these remarks to BLM, antifa, Governors Newsom, Whitmer and de Bl@sio, and Omar and AOC?

From the "2 + 2 = 5 new math" department - Online story: "On Friday, U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock reported his campaign raised more than $9.5 million during the third quarter of 2021 in a report filed with the Federal Elections Commission. * According to campaign manager Quentin Fulks, Warnock’s average donation is $37, with more than 145,000 individuals contributing to his campaign." -- Hmmm... my method of math.. the old 2 + 2 = 4 math, says that 145,000 gifts of $37.00 = $5,365,000.00.... about $4,135,000.00 more accurate than what the Dems report.. Truth is that the Democrats know Warnock's loss would bring their Socialist agenda to a screeching halt, so the Dems will pour extra millions in to try to get Warnock elected in 2022.

Online story: "During a recent interview on CNN, Carl Bernstein warned there is "a kind of civil war in this country ignited by Donald Trump," who may yet run again for the White House in 2024, and he argued a "coup attempt" took place on Jan. 6" -- So the January 6, 2021 "insurrection" was an attempted "coup". Hmmm...isn't a "coup" when you try to take out the EXISTING president? Maybe historians should review Bernstein's claims against Nixon.

Online story: "A 35-year-old man in Pennsylvania is facing rape and assault charges after a woman was sexually assaulted on board a public transit train Wednesday night as riders witnessed the attack but did not intervene, authorities said on Friday. * The woman was assaulted at around 11 p.m. The assault was observed by a SEPTA employee, who called 911, enabling SEPTA officers to respond immediately and apprehend the suspect in the act," Andrew Busch, a SEPTA spokesman." -- Good grief! No one helped.. but I'll bet most of the "innocent bystanders" pulled out their phones and videoed it to post on their Facebook and TikTok pages.

It's especially sad for Columbus, GA citizens.. Our City owned facility was "given" over to a private group back in the 1980s, then a couple of years ago, Columbus Regional "sold" itself to Piedmont. This story.. is horrible.. I'm sure there are circumstances Piedmont can point to that aren't delved into in this story, but it's already cannon-balled into a disaster PR wise..

From the "I'll bet John Kerry, Greta Thurnberg, nor AOC has ever mentioned this" department - Online headline/story: "South Pole froze over in coldest winter on record * Between April and September, a research station sitting on a high plateau in Antarctica, registered an average temperature of minus 78 degrees Fahrenheit (minus 61 degrees Celsius). That's the coldest temperature recorded since record keeping began in 1957, and about 4.5 F (2.5 C) lower than the most recent 30-year average, according to The Washington Post. * While Antarctica logged the coldest known average winter temperature, satellites have detected individual temperatures that are far lower; as low as minus 144 F (minus 98 C), according to the Post." -- Hmmm... "-78 degrees Fahrenheit.... AVERAGE! Sounds like the "greenies" theories that America causes "climate change" has been completely shot down! If their "theories" worked, Antarctica would have been influenced by our temperatures...

Online story: "The Biden administration has acknowledged that in the last fiscal year the U.S. failed to issue roughly 80,000 green cards that should have been given to legal immigrant workers." -- Hmmm... so, when having the option to "vet" non-Americans for farm jobs, JoKKKe Biden feels just allowing unvetted non-Americans in is easier...

From the "is he just stupid or just conniving?" department - Online headline/story: "Biden says he's open to shortening length of new programs * says he would prefer to cut the duration of programs in his big social services and climate change package rather than eliminate some entirely" -- Good grief! JoKKKe Biden has been a politician for nearly 50 years ... and knows as well as any one that once a government program gets "installed", it won't go away!

From the "how the AP accounts for and justifies fake news" department - Online headline/story: "NOT REAL NEWS: A look at what didn’t happen this week * By The Associated Press" * CLAIM: A new tax policy allows the IRS to “monitor all transactions involving bank accounts worth more than $600.” Another new policy taxes all payments of more than $600 made through applications like PayPal and Venmo. * THE FACTS: Current tax proposals and policies do not call for either of these actions. * Biden administration has proposed a policy aimed at reducing the tax gap and improving tax compliance. * Under this proposal, financial institutions — which are already required to report to taxpayers and the IRS when bank accounts earn interest that exceeds $10 — would also document the total amount deposited and withdrawn from personal and business accounts annually. The requirement would not extend to bank accounts that have less than $600 in transactions per year or contain a balance of less than $600. The Biden administration argues this data may give the IRS a better sense of who might be receiving large incomes that they aren’t reporting. But claims the proposal would allow “direct access to your bank transactions” are incorrect. Banks would not be able to report individual transactions to the IRS." -- "Banks would not be able to report individual transactions to the IRS"? Good grief.. The issue is allowing IRS to monitor your accounts.. not the banks sending such to the IRS... but INVESTMENT banks and investment divisions of commercial banks ALREADY send interest, stock and dividends to the state and federal Revenue Departments! No new bill is needed for that... the Democrats just want to have access to all accounts of people that don't "think" like they do...
And as far as "accounts under $600.00" needing not to worry.. it's only because the banks will eventually "absorb" those through "account charges"" and IRS and Democrats aren't interested in them.

Online headline/story: " ‘God have mercy’: Tigray residents describe life under siege * NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) — As food and the means to buy it dwindled in a city under siege, the young mother felt she could do no more. She killed herself, unable to feed her children. * In a Catholic church across town, flour and oil to make communion wafers will soon run out. And the flagship hospital in Mekele, the capital of Ethiopia’s Tigray region, wrestles with whether to give patients the expired medications that remain. Its soap and bleach are gone. * A year of war and months of government-enforced deprivation have left the city of a half-million people with rapidly shrinking stocks of food, fuel, medicine and cash. In rural areas, life is even grimmer as thousands of people survive on wild cactus fruit or sell the meager aid they receive. Man-made famine, the world’s worst hunger crisis in a decade, has begun." -- Hmmm... Does Black Lives Matter CARE about Kenya? What's BLM going to do with all the money it has received?

WRBL-TV3 headline/story: "Teachers in Texas district told to offer ‘opposing’ views on Holocaust * SOUTHLAKE, Texas (AP) — A Texas school district administrator told teachers that if they have books about the Holocaust in their classrooms, they should also have books that offer “opposing” or “other” viewpoints on the subject. * Gina Peddy, the executive director of curriculum and instruction for the Carroll Independent School District in Southlake, which is in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, issued the directive last week during a training session about which books teachers can have in their classroom libraries." -- In teachers defense.. one of them asked Peddy, "“How do you oppose the Holocaust?”....

Brownshirt and gas mask to school Day"?

Alabama got the "Robert Trent Jones Golf Trail".. and when you look at the line-up of Blue Cities in GA wanting casinos, GA could have it's own Gambling Trail. Gosh.. GA could even advertise one-stop malls for shootings and lootings! Even kiosks for divorces, gunshot ERs, and bail bonds.

How is that uniformly fair?
