Online headline: “OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Eight inmates at a San Francisco Bay Area lockup — dubbed the “rape club” by prisoners and workers alike — filed a lawsuit Wednesday against the federal Bureau of Prisons, saying sexual abuse and exploitation has not stopped despite the prosecution of the former warden and several former officers. “ -- Whatta predicament! If California does arrest the guards, they'll be out on "no cash bail" in time to re-apply for their jobs and be back working the next morning... or.. or if prisoners are arrested and charged with sexual harassment, they get out on "no cash bail" and just mingle in the streets of California "safe cities" rather than return to jail...

Online headline: "Maui's top emergency official is out after failing to sound sirens as fires approached" -- Good grief! The man should be awarded a medal! THe basic reason for the alarm system is to warn residents of an impending tsunami headking for the islands, and for residents to seek higher grounds. If the alarm HAD BEEN SOUNDED, many residents would have raced to higher grounds and placed in the path of the out-of-control fires, rather that staying close enough to the coast and being able to jump into the water to save their lives.

Online headline/story: “Vivek Ramaswamy shares 10 commandments of 2024 campaign, starts with 'God is real,' 'There are two genders'

His list followed:

1. God is real.
2. There are two genders.
3. Human flourishing requires fossil fuels.
4. Reverse racism is racism.
5. An open border is no border.
6. Parents determine the education of their children.
7. The nuclear family is the greatest form of governance known to mankind.
8. Capitalism lifts people up from poverty.
9. There are three branches of the U.S. government, not four.
10. The U.S. Constitution is the strongest guarantor of freedoms in history.

All Republican candidates should sign onto this... promptly and loudly! Right now, only Trump and Ramaswamy are completely "on board" with all 10, and the nearly 60% of Americans who are NOT Socialist-Democrats NEED to know Republican leaders think like we do.

 

Oh! And now we need “the Greatest Political Commandment of ALL”….. TERM LIMITS for Congress and Senate!

From the “Today’s Special: Brooklyn Bridges… and a side of Okefenokee Swamp land for sale” department - Online “headLIE”/story: “‘I am human’: Fulton County clerk owns up to ‘mishap’ that led to leak of ‘fictitious’ Trump charging document * The county court clerk behind the accidental leak of potential charges against former President Donald Trump in Georgia says that she accidentally posted the document while it was still in progress, and that the mix-up was nothing more than human error. * Ché Alexander, the Fulton County Clerk of Courts, told local ABC affiliate WSB-TV that as she was drafting the document, she inadvertently hit the “send” button instead of the “save” button.”” – There was nothing “accidental” about this “leak”.. When I .. and you, too, are updating a document.. we are working in a document program, and none I have ever used are directly connected to my e-mail program… No… her “explanation” is just a contrived LIE.. I compose my blog 5 days a week.. I carefully compile my ramblings in a document program, then edit and save, and THEN, I copy/paste it to my website edition, and then copy/paste it to my many group e-mails..

Online headline: “Editorial: Looking for voice of reason on election fraud? Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp may be your man” -- It's amazing to hear Trump being charged under "RICO" conditions when the most conclusive evidence of a "RICO" conspiracy is the intermingled accusations of 4 different indictments brought by 4 different Democrat DAs.

Two months ago, I posted a picture of the knocked over sign at the new VA Clinic on River Road here in Columbus, GA.. Last weekend, I noticed a truck and crew finally addressing it… When I went back by the next day, they had erected a temporary sign in from of the knocked over one.. I thought… hmmm.. the original sign was not “electrified”, so why didn’t they just pick it up, dust it off, and re-anchor it better on the existing foundation? But this is how government works..

Online headline: “Potential candidate to lead Chicago health department apologizes for lying about having Harvard PhD” -- Oooops... only among liberals, CNN, and MSNBC do "apologies" make everything "OK... move on... nothing to see here" about lying on a job application. Heck, Senator Princess Warren even did so on her application to teach at Harvard...

Online headline: “Dem strategists insist Biden 'is a nice person' despite 'no comment' on Hawaii fire: 'Words don't matter' -- Hmmm....Democrat Strategist may feel Biden's a "nice person", but I'll bet women who have been sexually harassed and little girls … and their parents…who've been "sniffed" by him don't agree with the Democrat Strategists.

Online headline: “Trump's proposed Atlanta court date on Super Tuesday eve 'planned and coordinated'” -- In 2024, the primary date in GA is Tuesday, March 5th. That means our local election will be on that date as well, and newly elected Columbus GA Councilors and MCSB members and our next Mayor will twiddle their thumbs until January of 2025...basically 10 months after their election. This is an albatross hanging from the neck of Columbus' future.
