Online headline/story: "Growing pains come with making Juneteenth a federal holiday * Juneteenth may be the country’s newest federal holiday, but for many Black Americans, June 19 has long been associated with homegrown community celebrations, if not at least understood as a day to symbolize freedom. * “For Black folks, there has been a long tradition of commemorating Juneteenth,” said Amara Enyia, policy and research coordinator at Movement for Black Lives." -- Today, is Juneteenth.. a new federal holiday of a historical national victory of the past, but there could be an even bigger celebration... an even bigger victory ... This would be for our nation's minority descendants to unshackle themselves from the Democratic Party. We could call it "NovemberEIGHTH".

Retailers are getting blasted for promoting "Juneteenth" merchandise.. Why! If it's national holiday, then why should anyone be upset if entrepreneurs want to promote celebratory merchandise? Will retailers get blasted for having merchandise celebrating the 4th of July.. Thanksgiving... Christmas... New Year's Eve/Day... Easter.. Valentine... even St Patrick's Day..

Online headline: "Buttigieg says feds have power to force airlines to hire more workers amid travel delays" -- Hmmm... Yes... airlines could be forced hire more employees... just by simply by lowering the standards they require of existing workers. Hey... Resident Biden did that when he hired Buttigieg... and look how that's worked out for America and our economy..

Online headline/story: "Virginia inmates escape from federal prison * The inmates were reported missing by the U.S. Bureau of Prisons, who said the inmates walked away from the minimum security facility * According to the report, one of the inmates was serving a drug-related sentence, one was serving a firearm-possession sentence, while the other two were serving time for both drug and firearm-related offenses." -- Excuse me, but why are violent criminals serving 10-18 year sentences kept in a minimum security facility?
Hmmm.... guess outgoing Governor Northam must have signed a law or Executive Order to "Defund the Prison Guards".

From the "Wait for it...the other shoe, that is" department - Online headline: Yellowstone flooding rebuild could take years, cost billions" -- Of course it will cost billions to "fix".. and, of course, by time the Democrats finish writing a bill to do so, there will be even many more BILLIONS of unrelated "PeLOUSY pork projects" add in to it..THEN the other shoe will drop.. some liberal will learn Lewis & Clark traveled the Yellowstone River route 200+ years ago, so it's Thomas Jefferson's FAULT.. so the Jefferson Memorial needs to be trashed... the another liberal will want to sue GOD for the erosion creating the Colorado River.. THEN some other liberal.....

Online headline: "Biden takes spill while getting off bike after beach ride" -- Pray that his "injuries" are minor... but you can't dismiss the ironic comparison of his economic policies... he was rolling along enjoying he push he got from Trump.. then stopped to brag about being responsible for it all... and when the momentum stopped, he fell over...

 

Instant repeat: "Biden takes spill while getting off bike after beach ride" -- Hmm.. and the next time he wants to go biking, the Secret Service will get his Peloton mounted to a flatbed lowboy truck so he can't fall over...

Online story: "U.S. Capitol Police said Friday that officers arrested seven unauthorized people in a congressional office building Thursday night and charged them with unlawful entry. * The people identified themselves as being affiliated with CBS' “Late Show with Stephen Colbert,” a person familiar with the matter told The Associated Press." -- Heh-heh-heh... guess Colbert realized that his best material was JoKKKe Biden, so he decided to create a "Capitol Studio" to get closer to his resource...

They worst thing about the low approval numbers of Resident Biden is that there are still 35-39% who feel Resident Biden is still credible...

Good grief! Looks like the PGA has recruited MSM to prop up Rory McIlroy like the Democrat Party has engaged MSM to prop up Resident Biden & VP Chuckles Harris.

Mike Tirico, now of NBC, has fallen into the White House "rabbit hole" of Disinformation.. On Saturday, he tried to convince the world that the "war" between the PGA and LIV would collapse major events like the USGA's OPEN event.. excuse me, Tirico, but the PGA has no say in USGA policy .. nor in policy of the R&A... As far as I'm concerned, the PGA has become the nightmare of greed for it's own benefit... fans be damned.. The PGA's TPC course events look like they are being staged to remove the true fans from the courses, and make them "bleacher creatures" that lounge around in fixed "hospitality tents" to guzzle $15.00 beers for the PGA's benefit. I'm surprised that the PGA isn't suing Holey Moley .. P.T. Barnum as well... for copywrite infringements.

I ask local questions periodically..... usually asking for numerical info not readily reported by local media, and it's aimed at seeing if our Council/MCSB members know .. or will acknowledge..what's going on. Also, whether they are willing to share the knowledge with the citizens they purportedly represent. Some Council/SB members are open, but most aren't.. that's a shame.. every elected official should be knowledgeable of the information and willing to share such. One question is, "How many people were shot and not killed in Columbus, GA in 2021?" Another is "How many students are reading at the grade level the MCSD has them currently assigned?"

Tomorrow.. June 21st.. is the runoff election date here and throughout GA.. Columbus has two of significance.. A Council seat, and a Republican Primary runoff to see who challenges Sandford Bishop in Congressional District 2. I do not get to vote in either but I am interested in getting the best people to serve in our government. For Council Post 7, my choice is Joanne Cogle.... Now Congressional District 2 is where real interest needs to be focused.. Most of Muscogee County is now in District 2, and Congressman Bishop has "represented" District 2 for 30 years.. Let's talk about facts rather than his "Happy Gilmore sized checks" we see him photo-opting all-too-often.. There are 29 counties in District 2 and in a recent "expose' "" of the worst 50 GA counties in GA's economic condition, 16 of Bishop's counties were included in the 50.. Even worse was that 11 of the worst 20 were Bishop "represented" counties... and even worst than that is 5 of the WORST 10 county economic situations are Bishop Counties. How... WHY... does the media serving Columbus, Macon, and Albany basically ignore this fact? God says He has a plan to PROSPER us.. but District 2 certainly isn't as prosperous as any other District in GA... Let's pray Jeremy Hunt might be God's answer for District 2..

I was recently informed, and pleased to hear... that when Vivian Bishop, the Clerk of Municipal Court, retired after about 30 years, a routine forensic audit was done, and nothing was out of order.. Now, did the Municipal Court Clerk's Office have a different record's keeping system than the Superior Court's Clerk? I mention this because during the recent Demps' trial, it was noted that $5.5+ MILLION dollars seem to have "disappeared" without any records being kept/found.. You know.. this reminds me of the "estimated $2 MILLION" in dumping fees at the landfill that was discover a number of years back that were never tracked down.. You have to wonder why iron-clad record keeping procedures were not installed at that time in every fee collecting office in Columbus..

Save your money plus the cost of gas to get there..... Disney's "Lightyear" is a dud.. Halfway through it, our 3-and-a-half year old superhero grandson told his mother he wanted to .. was ready... to leave. My bride was there as well, and said it was a "dark" movie... not one meant to hold children's attention or interest.

From the "Fred Sandford, "It's the BIG ONE, Elizabeth! I'm coming to see you!" department - Online headline: "Justice Sotomayor praises Clarence Thomas as a 'friend' who 'cares deeply about the court' * Sonia Sotomayor says she and Clarence Thomas 'share a common understanding about people and kindness toward them'" -- Talk about changing horses in mid-stream! Guess maybe Justice Sotomayor has AWOKEN after seeing DOJ ATTY GEN Garland's political biases becoming so clear, and she's happy Garland was not processed as another Justice back in 2016...

Online headline: "President Biden falsely claimed in an interview that inflation for every other major industrial country in the world was worse than in the United States" -- Hmmm ...somebody.... needs to inform Messenger Boy Biden that inflation is like golf... the HIGH numbers are not good.

Online headline: 'Elon Musk's SpaceX has reportedly fired several employees after they drafted an open letter criticizing the behavior of the chief executive officer." -- And they were rightfully fired! Perhaps if they had signed an open letter "criticizing" the behavior of Resident Biden, Chuckles Harris, and any other Democrats of their choosing, then those employees might have kept their jobs and gotten bonuses...

Think about this.. it took our nation 169 years (1607 to 1776) to resolve.. to decide.... to shake free from the Socialist rule of England, and another 7 years to accomplish victory. Obviously the 21st Century Socialist-Democrats have learned and want to take your guns away now so they can retake the rule of America...

How can any media.. no matter how LEFT or biased.. still be calling the the parental right's bill passed in Florida the "Don't Say Gay" bill?, and still have any credibility in the REAL world.. There is nothing in it that supports such a claim.

Online headline/story: "Bishop (Robert McManus) says school no longer Catholic after flying Black Lives Matter, Pride flags * A bishop has declared that a central Massachusetts school "may no longer identify itself as Catholic" because it refuses to remove Black Lives Matter and Pride flags it began flying on campus last year. * Arguing that the flags "embody specific agendas and ideologies (that) contradict Catholic social and moral teaching," Bishop Robert McManus of the Diocese of Worcester issued a decree on Thursday punishing the Nativity School of Worcester, a tuition-free private middle school that serves about 60 boys from under-resourced communities. * The decree prohibits the school from calling itself Catholic and prevents Mass and sacraments from taking place on school grounds." -- Wow! Wonder if Resident Biden can still claim he's a Catholic...

---
In a recent interview with ABC, Resident Biden said "he's optimistic about the country's future, and that Americans should feel it too — even as the majority of voters say the country is on the wrong track." -- Hmmm.. Unfortunately, ABC did not ask if Resident Biden's optimism was fueled by polls showing he'll be a single term (or shorter) president, or if that Biden feels he an actually be re-elected...

One fact the Democrats and MSM will never parse correctly is the popular vote difference between Biden and Trump in the 2020 election.. Their "summation" is always presented as "Biden got 7,000,000 more popular votes nationwide... but what neither organization tells us is that California counted over 5,000,000 more votes for Biden, and NY counted almost 2,000,000 more votes for him... so the other 48 states were pretty much even split between Biden and Trump... Also, neither the Dems or MSM will parse the effect of CA and NY on the Electoral College vote. CA had 55, and NY had 29 in 2020.. so of Biden's 306 Electoral Votes, CA and NY provided 84 such votes. If you reduced Biden's 503 by the 84 votes he got from JUST CA & NY, Biden got 219 and Trump got 232 from the other 48 states. One more thing Democrats and MSM won't bother to mention is both CA and NY allow non-citizens to WRONGFULLY register to vote in certain elections, and neither CA nor NY can vow with certainty that all voters in government elections are LEGAL AMERICAN Citizens.

Online story: "World swimming’s governing body has adopted new rules for transgender athletes, only permitting swimmers who transitioned before age 12 to compete in women’s events. * FINA members voted 71.5% in favor of the new “gender inclusion policy” at the organization’s extraordinary general congress on Sunday. It will apply to all its events from Monday." -- Good grief! Thank God some states are protecting their minor citizens by not allowing parents or doctors the right to ruin a child's future before they are legally old enough to make legal decisions for themselves!

What's scarier is what the "Board of Trustees" will eliminate from what the students learn about what George Washington's place in the history of our great country was... is...

Do they protest retailers who are selling JuneTEENTH merchandise.. or go to Ethiopia and support the Matters of Black Amhara lives in Ethiopia?
