It's calculated that over 260,000 men have fled Russia since Putin issued a "Ukraine call up" of between 300,000 and 1,200,000 men for military duty.. Hmmm.. but have they "fled" or have they been secretly deployed to cross OUR Southern Border and take over Washington, DC.. Hey.. don't laugh... too hard...

From the "grandstanding in LEFT field" department - In a show of Party Prejudice, the House passed a bill changing the requirements of how many people it takes to object to a Electoral College vote... Ho Hum... The LEFT's great claim is that 9 Republicans joined them.. Of course.... none of the 9 Republicans are returning to the House next term.. either they didn't run or were soundly beaten in their state Primaries so there are definitely "sour grapes" in play.. Of course, no bill Congress passes countering a Constitutional Amendment can stand up to a Supreme Court challenge so such political folly is basically a waste of time and tax dollars, ... and.. besides, a Republican majority in January could pass a countering "law" just as easily.

Excuse me... but WHY would Putin even say he wants to "nuke" Ukraine? Putin wants the land and resources in Ukraine, and "nuking" such would defeat Putin's wants.

---
Oh.. let me remind you, with a Republican majority in the House.. PeLOUSY will not return as Speaker (in fact, she's campaigning to be appointed Ambassador to Italy as we speak), and locally, current Congressman Sanford Bishop, D-GA2, win or lose... will not be Chairman of the House Agriculture Committee in January...

Never did get a response about whether other cities are sending their business leaders to Columbus, GA to observe "We Do Amazing"... Really makes you wonder why Council "invests" our tax dollars in "the Chamber"..

With a hurricane on its way, looks like Electric Vehicles are going to get a reality test in Florida.. how will they manipulate evacuation traffic jams, and electricity outages and chargerless temporary "residencies" in drier areas.

Remember earlier during the summer that Hershey was "woe is us" predicting a candy shortage for Halloween? Well, a trip down the candy aisle in stores show tons of Hershey candy...though it be at much higher prices... out for sale.. I reckon Hershey was just trying to create it's own "supply shortage run on candy", but has priced itself too high to compete for consumer food dollars.

Looks like the NAIA will be returning to Columbus, GA for it's Swimming and Diving Championships in March.. Did you know that there are 16 NAIA colleges/universities in GA? Sadly, our local Columbus State University is not one of them, and will not be competing in the Swim/Dive Championships...

WRBL-TV3 headline/story: 'Inflation impacting MCSD construction projects, budgets nearly double * The renovations at Jordan were originally budgeted for $3 million. That has more than doubled and is expected to cost nearly $7.5 million. * The SPLOST revenue however, is coming in better than expected. The E-SPLOST is expected to generate $185 million." -- Wait a minute.. Even if the E-SPLOST generates 3 or 4 times more revenue than originally calculated.. it only means that the E-SPLOST tax wil end sooner than the 5 year maximum.. It will not collect more revenue that voted for in the referendum...

OH! Just wait until the City of Columbus gets an "estimate" on the Government Center rebuild, and the Synovus Center project.....and remember.. that "10 Year $400,000,000.00 SPLOST" that just started? It might never end... at current inflation rates, we're looking at close to a BILLION DOLLARS to revamp the old Synovus/Kirven's Building on Broadway and completing the "$400 M worth of projects" in the 10-year SPLOST.

Black Entertainment Television headline: "Senator Raphael Warnock Leading Herschel Walker In Georgia Senate Race CBS Poll" -- "CBS Poll" ? Hmmm... Can't Believe Socialists?

---
Online story: "Georgia Power’s proposal for a $200 increase to the average household’s yearly electricity costs is set to kick into high gear with a series of public airings before state regulators beginning on Tuesday." -- Well... this is what happens when an elected Public Service Commission is more interested in keeping GA Power happy than Georgia citizens! Check the campaign donor accounts!

From the "using Real Math vs "new math" department - Online headline/story: "Biden student loan handout to cost more than $400 billion: CBO * CBO estimate doesn't include costs of 'income-driven repayment,' which outside watchdog says will cost extra $120 billion * The analysis also said Biden's suspension of payments for other borrowers until the end of the year — made as part of the same action — will hit taxpayers too. * "The cost of outstanding student loans will increase by $20 billion because an action suspended payments, interest accrual, and involuntary collections from September 2022 to December 2022," the CBO wrote. * Yearly costs from the student loan handout are likely to peak later this decade, according to the CBO analysis, and will continue to impact the deficit "over roughly the next 30 years." -- Hmmm... this is what happens when the figures promoted by MSM are actually "parsed" for facts ....

---
Online headline: "White House won't say if Biden thinks US cities are safe: 'Not a yes or no question' * Crime has risen in major cities across the country under President Biden" -- Of course the White House... even Resident Biden for that matter... won't answer this question... mainly because there it's mainly BLUE run cities tah they cannot say.. even attempt to say... are safe.

Online headline: "Alec Baldwin gives ominous life update amid 'Rust' woes: 'Lots of changes coming ... Family has kept me alive * While no charges have been filed, New Mexico has been given funds to proceed with potential prosecutions, which could affect 'Rust' producer and actor Alec Baldwin" -- Couldn't have happened to a vicer guy!

---
Online headline: "NBC's Chuck Todd suggests welcoming more migrants will solve the inflation crisis" -- "more *illegal aliens) will solve the inflation crisis"? Good grief! Just shows that Chuck Todd has neither a proper understanding of economics nor reality... the surge of unskilled illegal aliens will actually send the cost of Courts, Public Defenders, Law Enforcement and Prisoners skyrocketing. The only thing of value in Chuck Todd's gibberish is that Chuck Todd has described our border situation as a CRISIS! This has to send the :White House into a tizzy this close to the November Elections

Looking back at the recent report on the racial breakdown of student attending Columbus, GA's Public Schools is alarming! With a general demographic breakdown of 45% each for Black and White citizens but a public school breakdown of only 22% Whites, Columbus is in danger of losing White voter interest in our school system...

---
So the 2021 World Series Champion Atlanta Braves visited the White House, and presented Resident Biden with a BIDEN 46 jersey.. Hmm.. wonder if he asked if Atlanta had signed Hunter to a contract... or if he'd get his "10 percent"?

Looks like california is is banning gas furnaces by 2030. Online story: "California is set to phase out new natural gas furnaces and heaters by 2030 after a proposal from the California Air Resources Board (CARB) was passed, making it the first US state to take such action. * CARB Chair Liane Randolph said in a statement: 'While this strategy will clean the air for all Californians, it will also lead to reduced emissions in the many low-income and disadvantaged communities that experience greater levels of persistent air pollution." -- "While this strategy will clean the air for all Californians, it will also lead to reduced emissions in the many low-income and disadvantaged communities"? Good grief! I think california's air quality is more affected by Chinese air pollution drifting over than by natural gas exhaust! It also kooks.. even sound like.. california needs to go on a "CARB" free "diet". On another thought train: Since gas heat is much mor economical than electric heat, doesn't this mean low/moderate income families in california will be unable to keep themselves as warm?

---
Wait!... Can you hear it? That sound.... that sound of SILENCE from former President Obama standing up for the illegal aliens that were dropped off on Martha's Vineyard Island? No.. that's not your imagination.. Obama just sat there... he don't say nothing!

---
Online "headLIE" : "Biden's mixed record forces some Dems into odd balancing act" -- "some"? "some Dems"? I can't even think of one Democrat who's invited Biden to campaign for him/her at all.. and that includes a number of california Districts in which BOTH candidates are Democrats!

Anyone catch that Chuckles Harris is being sent to Japan for Shinzo Abe's funeral in lieu of Resident Biden?  Guess Chuckles has such a sterling record of successes as 2nd in Command... .... NOT!
