Weekend Update!
Walmart is closing its stores in Portland, OR. Shoplifting has taken its toll.. I do have a possible solution for all stores in major BLUE Cities though...mark every item at a minimum of $1,000.00 dollars...that way, if anything is stolen, it's a felony, but for shoppers, when they take the same items through the check out line, the register will take a discount off to the actual "purchase price"..

Was a bit disappointed at Trump's rally speech .. I wish he'd focused on how much better America was under his National and International policies because even Democrats see what has happened as Resident Biden has abandoned all but the Trump tax codes (which is the only thing that's keeping the recession from being a depression). Trump doesn't need to browbeat DeSantis.

Online headline: "Newsom falls silent after calls for him to take executive action on reparations" -- Gov. Newsom is in a quandary.. If he opens up this door, the less than 6% Black population will sell in a matter of months with the rush of Blacks across the nation bringing their ancestry claims (will quickly be available online for a small fee) of slavery and California connections. The really tough thing Newsom will have to swallow is that all this rush of people will not add any more California Electoral Votes in 2024 or 2028....

Hmmm...according to the TSA ( those guys frisking and scanning you at the airports) have now classified Peanut Butter as a liquid, and you can only carry a 3.4 ounce jar of it onto an airplane. TSA feels that since peanut butter doesn't maintain it's "form" except when in its packaging, it's no different than water. Hmmmm.... You know, we humans are mostly water, and it's our skin...our "packaging".. that keeps us in our form, so.... technically we're no different than peanut butter, so technically we shouldn't be allowed to board the passenger cabin of a plane either.

Online headline: "North Carolina teacher resigns after taping 11-year-old's mouth shut: 'He was humiliated'" -- Horrible ..YES! But when an eleven year old has a cellphone ...and has use of it in a classroom, this was probably 99% of the problem.

Online headline: "New Iranian rocket attacks injure more US forces in Syria: -- Good grief! We just heard that only 60% of our military could be ready to deploy in 96 hours(4 days), and now we hear our air defense system in Syria was non-functioning during Iran's attack on our base. WHO ARE THESE CLOWNS PROTECTING OUR COUNTRY!

Online headline: "Memphis' Jamirah Shutes allegedly sucker punches Bowling Green's Elissa Brett in WNIT" -- There was no "allegedly" ! This is an absurdity.... a Memphis State college basketball player... a female at that, sucker-punched her opponent in a post game sportsmanship ritual. It's all because of the NCAA's loss of sanity and control of players. It started with disrespecting our flag and anthem, NIL, Covid extensions of playing years, infinite "transfer portals", transgender females in women's sports, and has snowballed since. The NCAA must... MUST regain control of college sports NOW or it can only get worse. Memphis State's Women's Basketball Program needs to be made an example of... I suggest the NCAA ban the Memphis Women's BB Team from NCAA/NIT Tournament Invitations, and the Conference ban them from conference tournament play for 4 years. That coach needs to feel the wrath of the NCAA for recruiting thug players.

Online headline: "Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee asks federal government to help save HISD from TEA takeover" -- She's now asking Congress for "help"? Good grief... what's SHE been doing the last 20 years SHE's been sitting in Congress shouting "Racism" at every bill that comes up!
Excuse me, but will the Democrats serving in our Congress please tell me where slavery still exists and is practiced in their state/districts?

Online story: "Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-NY, an avid TikTok user, held a Wednesday press conference on Capitol Hill defending the popular social media app * Bowman has recently positioned himself as one of the most ardent defenders of TikTok, which critics have alleged is a Chinese spyware app. The New York Democrat, meanwhile, is tied to a foundation that received a $150,000 donation from TikTok's parent company late last year." -- Wait a minute, accepted a donation of $150,000.00? First, isn;t there a limit to such donations? Secondly.. this is not about a House ethics situation, it's about being a traitor to our nation!

Soren Kierkegaard was a 19th Century Danish philosopher who left us this amazing tidbit of wisdom: "Life can only be understood backwards; but it must e lived forwards." Obviously, the CRT and primary curriculum designers of today's education system have "canceled" Soren Kierkegaard's words of wisdom...

Online headline: "Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., says he will receive thousands in campaign donations he received from the failed Silicon Valley Bank if there is evidence of malfeasance." -- Good grief! Warner is just trying to protect HIS own personal "retirement account"!

WTVM-TV-9 Online headline: "Bill in Ala. Legislature would allow parents to claim unborn child as dependent " -- Wow... Imagine how many women will declare themselves pregnant on December 31st annually for "dependent" status, then issue a "OOOPS', my bad" retraction on January 1st.

WRBL-TV3 story: "COLUMBUS, Ga. (WRBL) — In gowns and suits, nearly 800 people gathered for the 18th annual Mayor’s Masked Ball held at the Columbus Convention & Trade Center. * As people danced the night away, there remained one focus and end goal — raising money for the United Negro College Fund (UNCF). * UNCF’s greatest mission is providing scholarships to help students go to college. * “We desperately need to try to raise more funds to allow these young people an opportunity to do that, primarily because it's just getting tougher and tougher for them to try to find scholarships, find a way into some of those other universities," said Mayor Skip Henderson. "So, it's just a great program. It's a great opportunity to kind of invest in our future.” -- Hmmm.. "to allow THESE young people an opportunity"" -- "We desperately need to try to raise more funds to allow these young people an opportunity"? -- Hmmm.. "to allow THESE young people an opportunity".... Hey, Mayor ... shouldn't ALL young people have the same opportunity?
Oh! And how much of the $162,000 embezzled by the previous Ball planner Mayor's Ball funds have been recovered?

---
Online headline: "Phillip Washington, Denver International Airport CEO, withdrew his nomination to lead the Federal Aviation Administration. President Biden chose him for the job in July 2022." -- Hmmmm... withdrew because of lack of support of Democrat Senate based on lack of aviation experience? Lack of experience in transportation certainly didn't bother the Democrat Senate supporting Mayhem Pete Bootygig.
---
Online headline: "Andrew Cuomo blasts Manhattan DA Bragg's Trump probe: 'I think it's all politics'" -- Fredo Cuomo "thinks it's all politics"? Fredo should know.. after all, it been nothing but politics that have kept him out of jail for all those nursing home deaths of seniors during Covid-19...

Online headline: "Minnesota advances 'trans refuge' bill opponents say would strip custody from non-consenting parents" -- Good grief! Minnesota is treating parents worse than China ever has!
---
WTVM-TV-9 headline: "Columbus City Attorney’s Office releases copy of police chief’s severance package offer " -- Looking at this, I have but one question to ask, "What is the Mayor up to?!" It looks like more of a "buy off" than a "buy out" to keep the Columbus GA Chief of Police from sticking around and talking about what really did or didn't happen.
---
Online headline: "Levi is going to start using "AI" models in ads rather than real people..." -- Hmmm... talk about stereotyping all types of people!
---

Online headline: "Taxes could toss sand in gears of Georgia governor’s drive to become electric vehicle capital" -- hmmm... why not just give all GA registered cars and trucks a scan card that ID's the vehicle, and exempt GA vehicles from per gallon pump & EV tax charged, and just add an $180.00 "fee" to the annual tag fee (12,000 miles at 20 MPG times 30 cents). Georgian's would see a break at the "pump" for gas and EV cars, and non-GA vehicles would still pay their share of gas/electricity taxes.

Maybe they are right... we get what they are bought for..
