Online headline: "Georgia Public Service Commission fails citizens as it approves 12% increase in Georgia Power bills" -- Hmmm... This is not just a failure of the PSC to protect the interest of Georgia's citizens, it's an admission that Biden's inflation causing policies are the culprit... but there's one aspect that neither GA Power or the PSC will adjust for in the future... when Republicans retake national leadership and inflation gets reeled in a bit, neither GA Power nor the PSC will be adjusting utility rates down.

Talk about hypocrisy... Democrats took more interest in an over-the-top funeral for a homeless, mental issued man who died while menacing NYC subway riders than they, and Neely's family, did on giving Neely help.

After feeling the pinch of the illegal aliens being shipped to NYC from Texas, Mayor Adams now feels that the federal Government should pay for them... Well, he still doesn't get it....he has/had no empathy for Texas having to absorb so much cost for handling millions of illegal aliens until Adams gave Adams a taste of it himself. Now Adams just needs to get on board with the Biden/Democrat Party securing the border and eliminate the problem at Chuckles Harris' "Root of the problem".

Online story: On "Meet the Press", MC Chuck Todd faces off with Representative Byron Donalds, R-FL, on Sunday. Todd was pursuing the issue of why Republicans don't want the 87,000 new "armed IRS AGENTS" that Biden wants... Todd said: ""They want fewer IRS agents and fewer attempts to properly get tax receipts into the federal government’s coffers. I have never understood the resistance of extra IRS agents unless you knowingly cheat on your taxes". * Donalds responded, "Most Americans by far pay their taxes and do it honorably, what House Republicans, frankly the Republican Party, is concerned about is having IRS agents go after middle-class families and small business owners. When you have that many more agents, it’s not to go after the rich. It’s to go after middle class. That's what it’s for" * Todd pushed back and added that, "if you are paying what you are supposed pay then you should have nothing to fear." * Donalds countered, * "You would make the assumption that IRS audits are up, that they're putting more liens on the American people. That’s not true. That data is not there. All Joe Biden is trying to find out of every possible nickel out of every couch of every American to pay for his spending" * -- You know, Donalds is right.. the really wealthy that Biden says he wants to go after have the best CPAs in the business doing their tax returns...so any IRS effort to get more will be like squeezing a rock to get water from...What will happen is that tax preparing forms like H&R Block will "err" on the government's side so they want be liable for paying additional taxes for the middle class and small business returns they prepare.

Online headline: "Transgender California high school runner's 2nd-place finish in girls race draws backlash * Athena Ryan to race in state championships next week" --Even if a man isn't a woman, there's nothing illegal ( unless it's to scam others like this is) about a man going through life imitating a woman, in gender specific cases such as bathroom and competitive sports, those tested "XX" used the women's availabilities, and those testing for "XY" use the men's.

From the "unintended consequences" department - Online headline: "2022 marked the year that drug tests administered following workplace accidents showing positive results for marijuana reached the highest level in 25 years" -- Another liberal concept that sounded innocuous to them on paper, but the reality doesn't confirm it..

Online headline: "Pelosi silent on Trump 'cold hard evidence' collusion claim after Durham report shows FBI, DOJ wrongdoing" -- Hmmm... now that the Durham Report is published, maybe it's time to put PELOUSY on trial in the House to present her "hard evidence" she based her Impeachment charges which actually she never presented in those cases.

Online headline: "Fetterman wearing ‘hoodies and gym shorts’ in Senate shows ‘robust recovery,’ AP report claims" -- "Since suffering a stroke last May which has hampered his (Fetterman's) ability to speak clearly and process questions.".. Surely this admission is enough to restrict Fetterman from voting on any issue presented in a bill that will have any effect on other American citizens! And Fetterman "voting" from the door to the Democrats' "cloakroom" leaves a suspicion of deception as to their legality..

Columbus, GA is seeing more and more ""affordable" housing projects replacing previous "housing projects" that eroded because of lack of maintenance, and these newer ones will too.

Online headline/story: "Officials investigate mysterious disappearance of 30-Ton shipment of explosive chemicals in California * Approximately 61,000 pounds of ammonium nitrate, a chemical used as both fertilizer and an ingredient in explosives, went missing when it was shipped by rail from Wyoming to California last month, prompting officials to begin investigating the mysterious disappearance. * On April 12, a railcar loaded with 30 tons of the chemical left Cheyenne, Wyoming. However, according to an incident report from Dyno Nobel, when the car arrived two weeks later at a rail stop in the Mojave Desert, it was completely empty. * "The railcar was sealed when it left the Cheyenne facility, and the seals were still intact when it arrived in Saltdale. The initial assessment is that a leak through the bottom gate on the railcar may have developed in transit," -- 61,000 pounds of ammonium nitrate "leaked out the bottom"? What BS! Ammonium Nitrate fertilizer comes in pellets for spreading across lawns,, Does anyone believe every bag on the train was loaded with every bag leaking and none showed on the ground where the train car was loaded?... or that all the containers leaked out the bottom also? Hope we have a government agency looking for it OTHER THAN the FBI!

Officials told FOX 5 DC that Hernandez-Espinal is also suspected of raping a 15-year-old girl on the same trail last week." -- Hmmm...he came into America illegally 10 years.....do the math... 10 years ago, Biden was VP, and now, 10 years later, the illegal aliens comes out of the woods to violate American women when Biden is President. Probably wouldn't have happen if Trump had been re-elected...

Online story: "Conservatives on social media ridiculed New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ new proposal (to "install KIOSKs in stores to connect would-be thieves w/social service programs") to combat shoplifting and crime at retail stores throughout the city. * The Democrat mayor’s plan, laid out in bullet point format during a local Fox 5 broadcast, included providing "De-escalation training for retail employees," and putting kiosks in stores that connect "would-be thieves" to social service." -- " "install KIOSKs in stores to connect would-be thieves w/social service programs" GOOD GRIEF! Why not add a "no cash bondsman" and a "court appointed defense attorney" there also!... oh.. and how about a liberal media center to video the thefts and arrests so the stores can get adverse "social media raping" before the "perps" even leave the crime scene! Oh, and the topper is "de-escalation training for retail employees".. Guess if employees are trained not to look, they won't stop/notice any shoplifters so there'll be fewer case reported, and Mayor Adams can brag that "crime is down"!

Online headline: "Elon Musk praises Tim Scott's first 2024 presidential campaign ad: 'Everyone's a victim'" -- Yep.. especially women who vote for Democrats feeling that women's issues are the most important issue on the table.. what the women who feel this way are actually doing is electing liberals who support the Border crisis, illegal immigration, tax dollars being spent of illegal aliens , more drugs on the streets, tax raises, and the rise in crimes, the abuse of law enforcement officers.

From the "Bias? What bias?" department - Online headline: "Some George Mason University students walk out, turn backs during Gov.

After having to park 2 blocks over at 10:45 Friday morning so I could join my family at a river front hotel dining facility, I believe Columbus GA Council could do all UpTown businesses a favor. Council should consider that when new projects are submitted, do not approve them unless the construction plans include building the parking facility first so that all the workers would have all day, off-street parking which would allow existing businesses to service their customers who could find street parking spaces easier.

Online story: "Tens of thousands of non-citizens have tried or made it onto voter rolls across the U.S. over recent years, according to an election watchdog’s analysis of data from several states" * Non-citizen voters have been found on voter rolls in North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Texas and Maricopa County, Arizona. In Georgia, there were non-citizens who attempted to register to vote but were placed in a pending status because there wasn’t evidence of their citizenship, so they didn’t make it onto the voter rolls." -- "In Georgia, there were non-citizens who attempted to register to vote but were placed in a pending status because there wasn’t evidence of their citizenship, so they didn’t make it onto the voter rolls." Hmmm... This pretty much dispels the facts about the Democrats not TRYING to commit FRAUD! Just look at the "voter registration efforts of Soros-funded Stacey Abrams' voter registration efforts! Hope we get a figure of the "denied" registration forms.. bet it's close to enough to have elected Abrams if they HAD gotten on the list..
