Online headline: “Bernie Sanders Says Americans Are Living In An  “Oligarchy On Steroids” --  Amazing! Bernie and AOC are out campaigning that America.. under Trump.. is an "oligarchy" that needs to be replaced by them and the Democratic Party. I want you to think about whether you have ever heard Bernie, AOC, or any Democrats ever say bad things about Russia, China, Venezuela, or Iran.. actually.. quite to the contrary.. Bernie and AOC and the Democratic Party LOVE Russia, China, Venezuela and Iran... Those four Socialist/Communist countries are "Dictionary Examples" of an OLIGARCHY.. They are prime examples of the oligarchy they want to put on the backs of America's working people..

Online headline/story: "Faith leaders urge followers to push for progressive successor to Francis * Bishop Sean W. Rowe, the presiding bishop of the Episcopal Church, viewed Pope Francis as a leader against forces on the American right. *" --  It will take an extremist to be more "progressive” than late Pope Francis....don't you just know someone is gonna suggest "POOP AOC"!

When did the "Soap Box Derby" return to Columbus, GA... and why did I only learn about it Saturday morning as I went to Lakebottom Park to watch a Little League baseball game? It was conducted on the 17th Street hill by Columbus High (and before that, at the permanent Soap Box Derby site at the old Pioneer Little League area now occupied by a Walmart) ...I remember when it was hosted on 17th Street many years ago, but was moved to the Schomburg and Blackmon Rds "connector" for a few years .. and then it disappeared.. You know, it was sad when all the "race  cars" became molded body, commercial kits that.. other than Commercial Sponsor Decals... all look alike... I remember when entries "vehicles" were made from scratch (other than the wheels, size/weight limitations, and safety instructions) and  basically, were father/son projects that helped families bond.. Sadly, I don't who was "sponsoring" the races because traffic barriers blocked passing traffic from getting close enough to see, but "Thanks!" to whichever group sponsored it...Oh! Next year, how about more pre-event publicity...

 

Hey! BCers… somebody let me know who was the sponsor…thanx!

Online headline: "Increasing tariffs could threaten Georgia’s poultry industry, officials warn" --  "Could"? There's that favorite word liberals fawn over when they have no facts  to support their claims.

From the “Department of Liberal Insinuation” department – Online headline/story: “FBI director posts photo of arrested Wisconsin judge’s perp walk, possibly violating DOJ policy * According to the Confidentiality and Media Contacts Policy listed on the Justice Department’s website, DOJ personnel “should not voluntarily disclose a photograph of a defendant unless it serves a law enforcement function or unless the photograph is already part of the public record in the case.” *  Former Attorney General Eric Holder, who implemented the policy during the Obama administration, worked during his tenure to make it more difficult for members of the media to obtain photos of defendants, such as mug shots.” – First.. note the disclaimer, “possibly violating DOJ policy”… all faces were blotted out. While “could” is MSM’s favorite responsibility “dodge” word, “possibly” is a real close 2nd!  It sounds like CNN has decided that since it can’t make money reporting news, it will become the   2nd Grade Class tattle-tale that runs to the teacher with everything everybody else is doing. Secondly, the DOJ policy was initiated by Obama & Holder.. just to make sure their pictures in handcuffs would not be front page news…

I'm tired  of Democrats screaming that "No One Voted for Elon Musk!"  I'm even more tired of CNN & MSNBC not calling the Democrats out on their assertions. No, we did not vote for Elon Musk... but more people voted for Trump and Trump legally appointed Musk to head "DOGE", and expose the fraud, waste, abuse, and corruption  of taxpayers money generated by grants and programs created under the Democrats in the past 4 years. I'd also like to remind the Democrats that no one...absolutely no one.. in Georgia.. at least not legally... voted for Schumer, Schi**, PeLOUSY, AOC, Bernie, Jeffries, Durbin, Soros, Newsom, Hobbs, Waters, Crockett et al...

---

Online headline: "DOGE deactivates 500,000 credit cards in unprecedented new program" --  A half-a-million taxpayers funded credit cards! Wow! That's an average of 10,000 federal credit cards PER STATE! I would love to see the DOGE audit of the fee charges one or more financial corporations are getting from the use of these. I'd also like to see the political donation list executives of these financial corporations have given over the past 10 years.

 

---

Talk about “election interference”… You know, there were 10,000 Government Employees per state carrying Taxpayer paid credit cards who influenced many elections, as they were not voting for Republicans.

I'm not sure what exactly went on in the NFL draft concerning Shedeur Sanders not being "selected" in the first, second, or third rounds, but I'm guessing none of the NFL coaches or front office execs wanted to have to contend with Deion "Prime Time" Sanders becoming the unofficial spokesman for their team.

---

Finally...Shedeur Sanders was drafted by Cleveland in the 5th the in 5th Round.. he was the 144th pick... Ironically, 144 is the exact number dictionaries define “what is gross".

Online headline/story: "Georgia Democrat Jon Ossoff says Trump's 'chaos and uncertainty' hurts the economy *  In his first four years, Ossoff tried to carve out a reputation as a traditional senator interested in advancing Georgia's traditional interests, including it's farmers and military bases." -- Huh?

Has she even considered how UNRESPECTED and UNSAFE American citizens and their families feel when judges return illegal alien criminals back to the streets of their neighborhoods!

My bride gave me a birthday card this morning that I have to share: “The Adult version of ‘Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes” is “’Wallet, Glasses, Keys and Phone”…If this isn’t funny to you today, it will be in the future… well, if you can remember it…

Online headline: "Biden's decline highlighted at WHCA dinner as media calls out cover-up during 'bad night" --  Good grief! Though definitely not in the best interest of America (but when are they ever), the Democrats were doing their job covering it up; on the other hand, the MSM journalist DID NOT DO THEIR JOB AT ALL.. which should have been reporting THE TRUTH about Biden's dementia!

Online headline: "Kennedy Center’s LGBTQ+ Pride events canceled" --  Good grief! If someone wants to be treated normal every day, then they shouldn't insist on being treated "special" all the time (birthdays and such  are exceptions)...it's a formula that works!

Online headline/story: “Ga. voters demand action, accountability from Ossoff in town hall  * Some of the sharpest questions centered around recent firings of CDC workers and funding cuts to global health initiatives. *
 Ossoff said major funding efforts would have to receive bipartisan support which he recognized is not guaranteed right now." -- In other words, Ossoff told his "following" he can't do nothing.... even with his continued support of  Bernie and AOC... Don't you love it when liberals "eat their own" ...

Online headline: "LGBTQ+ families don’t always feel safe. Here’s where they can find support" – “always feel safe”? Good grief! Well, my family doesn’t always feel safe in a lot of places here in Columbus GA, either…but have you seen them lining up to move to Yemen, Qatar, Syria, Lebanon, Iran, GAZA, China or Russia? How about the UK, France, Canada, or Mexico? Why… because life’s much better here in the USofA. God Bless America!

Online headline: 'Biden’s all smiles as he poses for selfies with mourners as he, wife Jill arrive for Pope Francis’ funeral" -- Hmmmm....ex-Resident Biden probably thought it was a rally for him.

"Morning Joe" Scarborough must be going through a period of depression following the revealing of his ratings drop. He's seemingly undergoing periods of a split personality.. sometimes he's "Mourning Joe" and at others, he's "Whining Joe". Hmmm.. you know.. that really sorta sounds "normal" for him...

---

Online headline: "Meghan McCain: Ocasio-Cortez’s message ‘more powerful than people are giving her credit for" --  You know, very few.. if any..  AOC/Bernie Rally goers even know what an "Oligarchy" is but it's actually what AOC & Bernie WANT.... Socialism! AOC and Bernie preach a message of "every one is equal" but they feel THEY  "are more equal"… It's the story line of "Animal Farm" , a George Orwell classic highlighting the hypocrisy of those in power who claim to promote equality while actually creating a hierarchy that benefits a select few....and guess who is the "select few"... yep, AOC & Bernie...

---

Online headline: "Poll shows community’s feelings about Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s deportation" -- "he did nothing wrong"? First.. it was a “poll” conducted in Maryland…Maybe they don’t know that only did he illegally enter our country, he has committed more crimes while he's been here! Maybe we should have laws criminalizing “journalists” that don't print the truth by choice!

---

Online headline: "Ketanji Brown Jackson: There are plenty of schools, but not plenty of wedding sites" --  Justice Jackson just demonstrated why SCOTUS candidates selected FOR their liberal bias aren't doing their job correctly. Ruling on their personal feelings/biased often goes against the intent of the US Constitution as written.

Online headline: "NY Times therapist tackles whether family should keep toddler away from Trump-supporting grandparents" --  You know, if parents feel they should keep their 2 year old away from grandparents because they have more life experiences, maybe the child should be put in the custody of the grandparents.

Was watching a jewelers ad, and it was extolling the value of  "Lab  Grown diamonds".  I resent the term "Lab Grown diamonds"... In the past, these were referred to as "paste", "fake", "simulated" or "costume" which are a lot closer to reality than "Lab Grown".

Can you believe the Democrat leadership being promoted are AOC, a strident PROGRESSIVE, and BERNIE, a self-proclaimed Communist.  If they had  tried to run in the Jim KKKrow era Democrat primaries, they probably wouldn't have gotten but two votes... their own and each other's...
