From he "Constitution? What's that?" department - Online headline/story: "Washington (State) Senate passes bill that would keep Trump off 2020 ballot unless he releases tax returns * Democrats who supported the bill said the provision was necessary to force a return to norms surrounding the release of presidential candidates' tax returns. * "Although releasing tax returns has been the norm for about the last 40 years in presidential elections, unfortunately we've seen that norm broken," said Sen. Patty Kuderer (D), who sponsored the bill, according to CBS." -- "norms"? What are "norms"... to Democrats? The only "norms" I have seen are "fake news" and whatever appeals to them at the moment that they WISH was in the Constitution that they will feel only applies to others who don't feel the same way..

Funny things is that if the State Senate bill passes the House, and the Governor signs it, Trump would be squeaky clean over the past 5 years, and Democrats,  having to release theirs, would be he ones challenging it in Court.

From the "Dems should be careful what they wish for" department - Online headline/story: "Socialist agenda stalls in the House * Ambitious proposals to end climate change and provide healthcare for everyone, seen as socialist by Republicans, have failed to win the support of even half of the House Democratic caucus, effectively dooming any chance of floor consideration. * Support appears to have plateaued for both the Green New Deal resolution as well as the Medicare for All national health insurance proposal." --- Hmmm...guess the Socialist aren't so eager to pass House Bill's that the Senate will bring up for discussion and make the Socialist-Dems vote on it in public.

Ilhan Omar say they’re done with the party that has held their support for generations. * “We felt we had a home there,” said Mark Schwartz, the Democratic deputy mayor of solidly blue Teaneck, NJ. “And now we feel like we have to check our passports.”
* Jordan Manor of Manhattan, who calls himself a “gay Jewish Israeli-American,” laments, “The party I thought cared about me seems to disregard me when it comes to my Jewish identity.” * Mark Dunec, a consultant in Livingston, NJ who ran for Congress as a Democrat in 2014, says, “I’m physically afraid for myself and for my family,” adding, “I see my own party contributing to the rise of anti-Semitism in the United States.” * “I never dreamed anti-Semitism would have become mainstream on the left, but it has." — Allison Gangi of Manhattan" -- Welcome back to the Kool-Aid Free world, friends!

Let's see...MSM-13 can blame President Trump for the sicko in New Zealand for attacking Mosques, yet even Chelsea Clinton cannot escape the MSM-13 wrath for pointing out that Ilhan Omar's anti-Semitic rants may be the cause of Hamas firing missiles into Israel. MSM-13 is so sick!

Remember how vicious.. intolerable.. Cory Booker and Kamala Harris were when inquisitioning Judge Kavanaugh on undocumented charges made against him when he was in high school?

The polls must be coming in and Democrats are now worried about 2020 elections..Dens are already on the TV shows saying their votes against Trump were made because of their concern for the Constitution, not because they are against border security. Good grief..it's even sadder when Dems speak out of both sides of their mouths and lie in both directions. Dems constantly try to convince people that conservatives do not understand the English our forefathers used in our Constitution to define our freedoms, our rights, nor our citizenship parameters, and nothing they can say about their ill-conceived denial about what is a border crisis is looked on as anything but what it is... allowing an intentional invasion of America's future and security.

Here's a couple of questions every Councilor and every MCSB member should be able to give us an answer: Since Columbus High Schools baseball field has been put out of use this season, Columbus High is using Golden Park for practice and games. The question: How much is the City charging for the school to use Golden Park, and how are maintenance and utility charges being calculated? Oh, one more question.. will the taxpayers be responsible for costs of using the Air Conditioned Viewing Boxes?

I heard a CNN anchor Don Lemon say conservative contributors should not be allowed on CNN because they.. basically.. disagree with the Socialist agenda. Good grief, Fox News has more Socialists contributors on it's shows that actually work for Fox News that add nothing but the socialist mantra to any and all discussions. I understand that Don Lemon pronounces his name "Don le-MON", but proves himself to be nothing but the acrid acidity of a "LE-mon".

The U.S. Treasury Department insisted that most Americans were paying lower taxes under the new law." -- Hmmm...ask yourself.. "Why does Reuters and MSM-13 print "polls" when they actually have FACTS on the same issue? But the hidden truth in the "poll" is that overall, only 20% (1-in-5) of the participants feel they are benefiting.. the hidden fact is that those 20% are less than half of the Democratic Party base, so most Democrat voters KNOW they are benefiting.

WRBL- 3 headline/story in two parts: Part 1 - "Columbus mayor proposes asking for 1-percent sales tax next year * In his first State of the City speech, Henderson said he was going to push for a 1-percent sales tax next year. That is when the current tax earmarked for the Muscogee County School District expires. * I intend to ask our council to consider a SPLOST that is to take effect when the current E-SPLOST expires in 2020," Henderson said. "If they agree, we will immediately begin to schedule public meetings to gather information and what projects the citizens want on that list.” -- We know dang well that the Superintendent of the MCSD is NOT going to wait another 5 years before wanting a new E-SPLOST, so Mayor Skippy is basically wanting Columbus citizens to pay 9% on every dollar Columbusites "net" on our paychecks. He might have a better chance if he waits until the T-SPLOST expires in 2023. You remember this don't you.. the T-SPLOST 1% tax that will generate about $1.8 BILLION over 10 years.. and Columbus. which will generate .. as well as be responsible for collecting most of it will only get about $594 MILLION (less than 1/3rd of the revenue - https://www.ajc.com/news/local-govt--politics/why-georgia-regions-voted-for-splost/drAbknCj6YYGtKfmRMDu7J/ )

 

Part 2: "“We are not really unlike other communities around the country," Henderson said. "We have some areas that have a higher crime rate than we would like. But we’re not a dangerous city. We have some areas that have a higher poverty rate than others. But we are not an impoverished community. We have areas that more blight than others, but we are not a blighted community.” * The mayor noted that the Columbus Police force is down 84 officers and the Muscogee County Sheriff’s Office is down 38 more. But adding officers alone does not solve the problem. * “You can’t police yourself to crime prevention," he said. "Our officers are awesome. If you commit a crime, they are going to catch you and put you away. But if all we do is hire more officers, all we end up needing to do is build more jails.” -- Hmm.. we are some 120 officers undermanned, and if we fill those spots, more arrests will made, and we'll need more jails... sounds to me that a properly manned law enforcement plan WILL reduce crime.. simply by getting more criminals off the street so they can't commit more! What we need is better criminal prosecution that keeps the true recidivist criminals, especially the violent ones, incarcerated for longer times. Maybe if Mayor Skippy uses the next 3 or 4 years to use the Public Safety LOST revenues better, the citizens might be more receptive to funding the revenues for his new Government Center.. but I really don't see that happening.

In lieu of feeling our local legislative group will seriously work towards moving all our local elections and referendums to the November General Election date, is there a way we citizens can petition to get these issues moved?

Better yet, I'm going to sue the Movie Industry for allowing me to buy too much popcorn at any one sitting!

Now is a great time to check this out!

Listening to the liberal uproar among it's own abuses of privilege in college placements.

If there's one important lesson Independent voters should get from the vote on the President's National Emergency issue is that Republican Congresspersons and Senators are not puppets to their party leadership.

Cory Booker just confirmed the failure of his own liberal education..he's promised to make history...he's confident there will be a woman on the 2020 ticket.

Looks like GA has decided on a new voting machine...touch window screen that prints out the ballot which then goes into a scanner where it's finally "cast".

From the "rush to judgment mentality catching up with bias" department - HuffPOOPOO headline/story: "A suspected New Zealand shooter appears to be a white supremacist * A man accused of opening fire Friday at two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, killing worshippers (sic), appears to have been motivated by white supremacy and extremism that he saw in the United States. * Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison characterized the alleged shooter, one of four suspects taken into custody, as an “extremist, right-wing, violent terrorist." -- You know, HuffPOOPOO is probably more responsible for this than the one shooter they are eviscerating! Bias reporting of events in the past in which blame is one-sided fuels the hatred .. and the reactions..of the ignorant, and HuffPOOPOO is an extremely one-sided view. And for the HuffPOOPOO to cite the Prime Minister of Australia (versus the Prime Minister of New Zealand) is blatantly self-serving...

 

For the record, I think.. even feel... this was horrible... a horrible event.. and a horrible path to the future, and the killers be dealt with based on what they did, not what HuffPOOPOO feels they were probably thinking.

Sadly 12 Republican-titled Senators voted against our National Border Security Crisis yesterday, and one did a flip-flop after he saw the results of the vote were obvious... the "flip-flopper" Was Thom Tillis of NC.. after leaning with the Dems all along, he suddenly remembered he is up for re-election in 2020, and recent constituency input in he last week suddenly reminded him that he was not representing them on this issue caused him to reverse his direction after he saw that the results were already decided. Lamar Alexander has already announced he won't be running for re-election in 2020 so he's gong to be another FLAKE (as in Jeff FLAKE of Arizona) for the next 21 months.. Cannot say Susan Collins of Maine was a surprise, as she's always been a RINO existing in a liberal state on basis of being a female. The other 12: Paul, Murkowski, Romney, Lee, Toomey, Portman, Blunt, Moran, Rubio, and Wicker.. aren't running until 2022 or 2024, but I will be sending a donation to whoever runs against them in the GOP primaries when appropriate..

Let's start dissecting William Springer's illicit school bribery foundation from it's roots.. Who was the IRS official who gave him "501-(c)" status... based on information available. it's a good guess that Lois Lerner was the one.. you remember her.. she was Obama's puppet who intentionally slowed down the processing of applications for "501-(c)" status from conservative organizations.. then was allowed to "RETIRE" on taxpayers' money rather than being fired/charged..

You know.. how could anyone not understand why cheating to get this generations
kids into an elite school be a surprise.. This generation has been spoon-fed how special hey are.. and nobody gives a second thought to them buying "cheats" to get to higher levels of the computer games they play.... diplomas are handed out more than they are earned, and diversification policies/quotas of better schools already determine that many more-than-qualified applicants have zero chance to be admitted on their own efforts, so let's don't condemn all the parents.. now the Springer Foundation and its representatives are a different story.. same for the college coaches, test proctors, and paid test-takers drawn in by the thought of easy and quick money for themselves.

Is Hallmark "rushing to judgment"...too fast? Word is out that Hallmark has dismissed Lori Loughlin .. including pulling the next episode of "When Calls the Heart" scheduled Sunday Night.. I can see Hallmark's concern.. Loughlin's character in this series is one of hard work and moral uprightness in both her personal and political life. Her character is the anchor for all on the show. Let's pray for Lori Loughlin and all depending on her..while we're at it. let's pray our higher education system will weed out selective entry policies.. for ALL reasons.

Target is also pulling the trigger on Lori Loughlin.. .. by killing off Mossimo and Merona labels (Mossimo Giannulli's merchandise) at its stores. Again, probably an overreaction but Target was already on my "s***-list" for eliminating popcorn and Icees that I could enjoy with my granddaughter when Target replaced the snack-bar with Starbucks, and even more recently, tripling the cost of a prescription (from $63.00 to $197.00) I need because Target had an abundant supply when the laboratory stopped producing it to deal with a recall and no other store had any.

 

---
I'm confused at another "drop" though.. Sephora and Amazon were paying at least one of Loughlin's daughters at USC as an "influencer".. One of them promoted those two brands on her Twitter and Instagram accounts. What I'm confused most about is whether I'm madder at the exploitation Sephora and Amazon did, or their reaction to the recent revelation, but I'm fixing to cut my strings with Amazon today (had none with Sephora).

From the "hypocrisy personified" department - Online headline: "Al Gore says climate change can ‘bring about the end of civilization’ during talk in Atlanta" -- You know, Algore is more concerned that people will stop paying him to rant ABOUT "climate change" than the eventual effects of "climate change" if his rants came true.

From the "news? Really?" department - M/C L-E headline: "Alabama inmate ends days-old hunger strike over solitary confinement" -- Why is this newsworthy? That's all I have to say..

Wow! Yesterday, I received a FB post by the Majority Party PAC spieling me on the Democrats' need for money to stop TRUMP in 2020. I reported it to FaceBook as "Fake News". I got BLOCKED for several hours... and blocked even from Facebook's Help Center "feedback" so I could 'challenge" FB's decision! This is the same FB that is under attack BY the Democrats to dismantle it. Like I don't understand why Jews and blacks stick with the Democrats, I don't understand why Facebook does either.

From the "we need to check out a name from the past... Lois Lerner" department - You know, those parents who paid a foundation to assist getting favorable really didn't do wrong unless the deducted their donation from their taxes. While there's an argument that using your financial advantage is not necessarily fair, it's not against the law. Now the man who established a bogus foundation to do this has definitely broken laws, and college coaches who connived and received compensation are guilty of collusion and fraud, and SAT/ACT staff who altered tests or assisted in the fraud are guilty, there's one big question no one's brought up.. Who at IRS approved Springer's foundation as charitable? Since it appears to have been formed in 2011, my guess it was Lois Lerner ..the one Obama had slowing down processing 501 (c) statuses for conservative organizations.

 

---
It's over...the Mueller witch hunt.. Paul Manafort just got his last sentence so his relationship with Mueller is... basically...over.. In total, Mueller got 11 'convictions' between Manafort and Flynn, yet not one was for any connection with President Trump..there was nothing to connect Trump with any Russian election collusion/interference. Now there was evidence provided that indication there was some Russian election collusion/interference...but it pointed directly to Hellary and numerous FBI personnel. This is probably the only reason PeLOUSY wants to drop the impeachment promise she made about Trump...further pursuit will end up in charges against Hellary and Comey and Obama based on testimony that Lisa Page connected the dots on the FBI investigation directly to Obama.

Here we go again...MSM-13 ..rushing to judgment...again...this time on the Boeing 737 Max. It's really no different from MSM-13's response to immediately and publicly convict and lynch Judge Kavanaugh, Nick Sandmann, as well as the "two white men" who assaulted Jussie Smollett. Maybe the lawsuits brought on behalf of 16 year old Nick Sandmann will change to way MSM-13 approaches reporting so irresponsibly. Has anyone reporting this story even mentioned that there are two switches in the pilot's instrument panel that can cut off the automatic flight adjustments?

From the "two more Democrat myths bites the dust" department - Online story: " Two armed men (former pupils) wearing face masks entered a Brazilian elementary school Wednesday and shot and killed at least six children who were on their snack breaks, as well as two school officials, before fatally turning their guns on themselves, police said. * Ten people, including the gunmen, were killed in total, * The unidentified gunmen, who appeared to be between 20 and 25 years of age, * Another 17 people - mostly school kids - were shot and injured, and several of them were in serious condition, said police, who were not yet aware of a motive for the violence." -- First, the Brazilian "Gun laws in Brazil. In Brazil, all firearms are required to be registered with the minimum age for gun ownership being 25. It is generally illegal to carry a gun outside a residence, and a special permit granting the right to do so is granted to certain groups, such as law enforcement officers." The myths.. only white males do this, and law abiding citizens should have their guns confiscated. The two have been identified as former students, and neither was old enough to legally own a gun nor carry one outside a residence. Thank goodness our Forefathers protected law abiding American citizens' right to own and bear arms!

Hmmm... another "list".. have I ever told you how I love "lists"? Today's is one of the "States With the Most Unsheltered Homeless People"... not exactly something to praise, but a definite eye-opener. The worst 5, in order of worse, are CA, OR, NV, HI, WA. Between these 5, they have 84 Electoral votes.. and in 2016, they all went to Hellary.. Why I bring this up is that of the total of 232 Electoral votes Hellary got, these 84 from the worst unsheltered homeless states represent 36% of her total.. Yes more that 1-in-3 of her Electoral votes can=me from the Worst 5 states for unsheltered
homeless people.. While 10 of the Electoral Votes are based on the number of Senators of the 5 states, there are 74 House members in those states.. 64 of those are Democrats which means that when there is a House vote on any issue, those 64 Democrats represent 29%.. basically 3-out-of-10... needed to pass legislation in the House.. I guess what the UNSHELTERED Homeless really NEED is for more Democrats to be UNSEATED in the HOUSE.

From the "Why the interest of the parents versus the perpetrators and purveyors of fraud?" department - Online story: "A Florida man with a Harvard degree and excellent test taking skills appeared to have the perfect pedigree for his job as director of college entrance exam preparation at a private sports academy and preparatory school. * But federal authorities revealed Tuesday that Mark Riddell wielded his mastery of standardized tests to help prospective college students cheat on the SAT and ACT, earning more than $200,000 in a widespread college admissions bribery scheme that ran for nearly a decade. * Riddell is accused of working with William “Rick” Singer to help wealthy parents get their children into elite colleges between 2011 and 2018. * The 36-year-old Florida native attended Harvard from 2000 to 2004, the same period of time when Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg was attending the prestigious university. Riddell became a professional tennis player for a short period before starting his position at IMG Academy in 2006, where he was an alumnus and worked until Tuesday. * Riddell was IMG Academy’s director of college entrance exam preparation, according to his since-deleted biography page on the school’s website. Along with recruiting SAT and ACT tutors, the school previously praised Riddell helping to assist “thousands of students in gaining admission to top American universities such as Stanford, Duke, Columbia, Dartmouth” and other elite colleges." -- Let's face it... the IMG Academy basically was established to be an elitist college incubator for kids of wealthy families and a few real athletes from less affluent families. This is an excerpt from the IMG website as of this morning: "FINANCIAL AID - At this time, IMG Academy does not offer scholarships. We do have a limited amount of financial aid available. Recipients are selected based on an academic, athletic, character and financial review. For more information, please reference our admissions page. * APPLY ONLINE - IMG Academy is one of the world’s most prestigious boarding schools and admits a limited amount of students annually from a large pool of qualified applicants, so we encourage interested student-athletes to submit an application as early as possible. Submit your online application to get started today." IMG can basically taunt wealthy parents into buying into its program by showing those wealthy parents even their children don't have as good of a chance getting into primo-schools on their own.

From the "are we really surprised?" department - Online headline/story: "Democrats don't care about the integrity of the census * Do you know how many people in the United States are American citizens? No one does. And the Democrats don’t want you to find out.
* For nearly 150 years, the United States asked people whether they were citizens when filling out various census forms. Thomas Jefferson first proposed the idea in 1800. A citizenship question was added to the official census in 1820. The question was consistently asked until 1960. In December of 2017, the Trump administration added the question back to the survey. * Democrats were furious when news broke that the citizenship question would be added to the 2020 census. They argued that “Adding [the] question to the 2020 census could scare away millions of immigrants from filling out their mandatory surveys.” -- Hmm.. for the 1st 16 Censuses, a question of American citizenship was included until dropped in the 1960 one.. this really explains how the California legislative/Electoral College got a huge jump of 7 Congressional representative based on the 1990 Census.. the influx of illegal aliens during the 1980's were counted and California was GIVEN 7 more seats.. In reality, 7 seats were actually reassigned from states that were more American citizen based..

Online headline/story: "Court rules that Ohio can defund Planned Parenthood * In 2016, Ohio passed a law defunding Planned Parenthood and other abortion facilities, and redirecting approximately $1.3 million to federally qualified health centers (FQHCs), health departments, and other non-abortion health providers. While most Americans do not want taxpayer dollars funding abortion, Planned Parenthood still sued, and successfully managed to get an injunction blocking the law, with U.S. District Judge Michael Barrett ruling that stripping the abortion giant of its taxpayer funding would cause “irreparable injury.” -- Hmmm... prohibiting abortions can cause "irreparable injury"? Well so can ALLOWING abortion cause "irreparable injury".. not only to the aborted fetus, but years later when the mother .. and/or father, have feelings of regret and remorse..

From the "this should end this conversation" - Online headline: "A spokeswoman for Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign apologized Tuesday after questioning whether the “American-Jewish community has a dual allegiance to the state of Israel” — a comment condemned by Jewish leaders across the political spectrum as having anti-Semitic overtones * Sisa posed the question Sunday during a discussion in a Facebook thread in which she said that, like Sanders, she stood with Rep. Ilhan Omar. She deleted the post after POLITICO began asking about it. -- MSM-13 sure will eagerly accept bigotry from Democrats while condemning Republicans within an inch of their political lives.

From the "at least one MCSB member is listening" department - M/C L-E headline/story: "MCSD board proposes pay cut for absent members * The salary Muscogee County School Board members receive would be cut if they miss more than two meetings, work sessions or retreats per year, and folks would have more time to be allowed on the board’s public agenda, if the board approves the two proposed policy changes members discussed this week." -- Hallelujah for Laurie McRae! What a breath of fresh air.. the vision of Frank Myers and the diplomacy of Henry Kissinger .. two sore subjects are being addressed.. the pay cut for missed meetings is one way to attack meetings missed where a vote could be altered just by a member not showing up to cast his/hers.. and giving the public a proper notice to get on the agenda to address subjects is a true win for he community.

M/C L-E headline/story: "Buttons with profanity at Georgia Capitol spark lawsuit * A civil liberties group is demanding that police on the Georgia Capitol grounds allow demonstrators to wear Planned Parenthood buttons that include profanity. * In a federal lawsuit filed Tuesday, the American Civil Liberties Union says two women who oppose legislation that would ban some abortions wore pink buttons that included the profanity as part of a slogan. * Capitol police ordered both women to remove the buttons March 7 and officers told others that items with “curse words” weren’t allowed because children were present, the lawsuit states." -- What irony! The woman are protesting the ban of cuss words because there will be children present at there presentation to eliminate children from being here at all.. Another thing should be addressed permanently, too.. Media is describing the group as a "civil liberties group".. this group should not be allowed to described as "civil" not "liberties"... nothing they stand for is civil or addressing liberties for all.

Hey Nancy Pelosi's nephew... how about just outlawing all crimes in California and criminalize any media reporting of such.. and hen claim California is a "crime free" sanctuary... well, everywhere but inside church sanctuaries..

Lori Loughlin..angel of Hallmark and "Full House" fame, has been charged with a cheating scandal involving college admissions. 300 FBI and IRS agents culminated 10 months of investigation with 46 +/- administrators, coaches, test proctors and parents nationwide who arranged for unqualified students to gain admission to elite schools. I tell you what, if the DOJ/FBI convicts Lori Loughlin but not Comey, McCabe, Strzok, Page, or Hellary, America will clean house at the next election!

From the "wake up call" department - I do love "lists"... not so much that they are 100% accurate, but they do reflect how the world of academics see us.. especially "lists" relating to education. Today's "list" shows Georgia as the 32nd worst state:

 

"32. Georgia
High school graduation rate: 79.4% (7th lowest)
Public school spending: $9,742 per pupil (12th lowest)
8th grade NAEP proficiency: 28.4% (math) 30.2% (reading)
Adults with at least a bachelor’s degree: 30.5% (23rd highest)
Adults 25-64 with incomes at or above national median: 48.6% (19th lowest)

Only 79.4% of high school students in the state graduate with a diploma compared the 84.1% of students nationwide. Additionally, both fourth and eighth graders in Georgia are less likely to be proficient in math and reading than in most states."

Hmmm... especially odorous is the deficiency in high school graduation rates, and the 4th grade lack of reading proficiency... 30.2% ... let's face it, lack of reading skills restricts students abilities... likelihoods.. of grasping any other aspect of educational skills needed to be independent as an adult (now to be fair, the top rated state's (MA) NEAP tests of 8th grade NAEP proficiency in reading is only 45.7%, but to be at a 66% level compared to the best shows a nationwide deficiency... and sorta explains why recent generations believe socialism works). Add Georgia's egregious high school graduation rate is even elevated since GA has abolished the "Graduation Test" before handing out diplomas.

 

https://247wallst.com/special-report/2018/01/29/states-with-the-best-and-worst-schools-6/8/?fbclid=IwAR36vnJ9z20RB5nAGVbnLMFgC2_p7hYJ9L-zY87pqiKkFpu8Ky8wkq_SlBM

 

Now for an ADDITIONAL "wake up call".. California.. the state with the most Electoral votes and the most representatives in Congress where our laws and direction are generated.. is worse than GA.. well, actually 34 other states, and they want non-Americans to vote on all our issues.

Online story: "ALBEMARLE COUNTY, Va. (WVIR) - Albemarle County school leaders are working to bring more diversity in to the classroom. * Dozens of educators are learning a new teaching method to help reduce the achievement gap between students of different backgrounds and ethnicities. * The idea of the county's program is to use cultural awareness to cater instruction to the individual strengths and needs of each student. * “We have not done the best job that we should be doing in impacting the teaching and learning experiences for our marginalized students,” Bernard Hariston, the county’s assistant superintendent, said." -- You know.. Virginia is about to embark on a downward spiral.. (below is the comparative data for VA and it shows much better results than most states...way better than GA!) Classroom instruction cannot improve if every student has to be "adjusted to" rather than every student every student "adapting to" the teachers.

 

14. Virginia
High school graduation rate: 86.7% (20th highest)
Public school spending: $10,358 per pupil (15th lowest)
8th grade NAEP proficiency: 37.6% (math) 35.9% (reading)
Adults with at least a bachelor’s degree: 38.1% (6th highest)
Adults 25-64 with incomes at or above national median: 57.0% (9th highest)

M/C L-E headline/story: "First police chief in MCSD history on track to being hired. Here’s his background. * Ten months after the Muscogee County School Board approved establishing a police agency in the Muscogee County School District, Superintendent David Lewis has recommended to the board the person who would be the department’s chief. * District 6 representative Mark Cantrell was the only board member to comment about the recommendation during the work session. * Cantrell also said he is disappointed Lewis select someone who isn’t from Columbus. Lewis reminded Cantrell that the board directed him to seek someone who has experience similar to what this job requires" -- Where to start! In a community that discusses combining the Marshal's Office with the Columbus Police Department to create a better functioning, more efficient law enforcement environment, the MCSD just confused matters even more.. To begin with, why couldn't... why DIDN'T... the MCSD just work with the CPD to have the MCSD pay salaries for a special division (to work "school hours")? Adding INSULT to "injury", Lewis wants to bring in another outsider.. considering that there are tons of qualified law enforcement personnel in the area with either police of military-police credentials, this is an obvious attempt to bring in someone who doesn't know enough about the already existing problems within the MCSD administration. Thank good Mark Cantrell stood up and challenged this move.. it should have been unanimous...

Online headline/story: "In New York City schools it's goodbye chicken nuggets, hello bean curd - Thanks, Mayor De Blasio" * Instead of delicious cheeseburgers and pepperoni pizza, the children will have to scarf down roasted chickpea tagine and something called kid-friendly kale salad." -- Hmmm... do you know what "bean curd" is? I didn't but looked it up: Per Wikipedia - "Fermented tofu (also called fermented bean curd, white bean-curd cheese, tofu cheese, soy cheese or preserved tofu) is a Chinese condiment consisting of a form of processed, preserved tofu used in East Asian cuisine. The ingredients typically are soybeans, salt, rice wine and sesame oil or vinegar. " Wow! Now NYC students will have to wonder what carcinogens may be IN their food.. We've heard horror stories involving lead in painted toys, and in medicine 'filler' materials. Now Cuomo is going to have to worry about average citizens moving out of New York, not just the wealthy ones seeking tax relief. Oh.. and "kid-friendly kale salad".. you gotta be kidding..

From the "Elizabeth Barrett Browning, "let me count the ways" department - Online headline/story: "Georgia Democrat pushes 'testicular bill of rights' to parody ‘heartbeat’ abortion bill * A Georgia state lawmaker is drafting legislation banning vasectomies and requiring men to get permission from their sex partners before obtaining a prescription for Viagra or any erectile dysfunction medication. * The legislation would also restrict men's access to pornography and sex toys. * State Rep. Dar’shun Kendrick, a Democrat, says she proposed the legislation to parody a restrictive new abortion bill, known as the 'heartbeat' bill, which was approved by the state’s House of Representatives last week. The legislation bans most abortions after a doctor can detect a heartbeat in the womb" -- I'm really starting to believe there's actually something on the ballot levers next to Democrat politicians' names that affect the "stupidity" level of those who vote Democrat! This legislation, except for the stupidity that husbands must get their spouses permission (usually the wife INITIATES such a move) for a vasectomy, but the other segments she wants banned all have more personal invasion of the LGBTQ community ... especially the "sex toys" and "condom" provisions.

The teeth may give clues on how their diets helped shape the course of evolution." -- Doesn't the fact that the animal world doesn't have living examples on inter-species transitioning between stages be a good sign that evolutionism theories have serious flaws?

M/C L-E headline/story: "US consumer prices rose 0.2% in February * U.S. consumer prices rose 0.2 percent in February, pushed up slightly by higher gasoline and housing costs even as the prices for autos and clothing slumped. * The Labor Department says the consumer price index rose a modest 1.5 percent last month from a year ago. Inflation has been muted despite the solid job market, causing average hourly earnings – after being adjusted for consumer prices – to climb 1.9 percent in the past year. This marks the strongest inflation-adjusted wage growth since November 2015, an increase that would likely help consumer spending and economic growth." -- Hmm.. just another indicator that FED chief Powell's last quarter rate increase was not necessary.. rate increases should be used to stop out-of-control inflation, not stop business and productivity...

From the "just another campaign lie" department * Online story: "“I’m not for impeachment,” said Pelosi in an interview with the Washington Post published Monday. “This is news. I’m going to give you some news right now because I haven’t said this to any press person before. But since you asked, and I’ve been thinking about this: Impeachment is so divisive to the country that unless there’s something so compelling and overwhelming and bipartisan, I don’t think we should go down that path, because it divides the country. And he’s just not worth it.” -- Hmmm.. Impeachment.....just another campaign promise made to be broken ...it got her elected and re-seated as Speaker, but now realizes she'd be no match under oath for Trump's defense attorneys. Unfortunately, for her, Adam.. or is it A Dam Schi**, will keep up his Chihuahua attack on Trump until the 2020 elections, and the Republican win back the House as well.

Sadly, fiscal reality hit Finland’s government as it collapsed Friday due to the rising costs of its universal health care. * The warning signs were on the wall last spring when Finland, as Leslie noted, ended its experiment with “universal basic income.” -- Sadly.. recovery "ain't free"!..

In a tweet less than a week before the Finland "collapse", Bernie cited this: " In the United States, it costs, on average, $12,000 to have a baby. In Finland it costs $60. We've got to end the disgrace of our profit-driven healthcare system and pass Medicare for all." -- You know, the real reason our healthcare is more expensive is the costs of providing "free" healthcare as directed by regulations that hospitals and doctors have to operate under to avoid civil and criminal actions.. I still remember 16 years ago when I had to go to an emergency room at a local hospital to fix a deep cut on finger. After 2 hours of waiting, I finally got to see a doctor who determined that this cut could be treated with a butterfly strip and, basically, a band-aid. He left and sent in a nurse to perform that procedure.. when I got the bill, it was over #350.00. I still have the scar.. two scars actually,,, one from the cut, and another from a $350+ dollar band-aid. Then I think about the same hospital HAVING to treat gunshot victims of gang/drug deal activities "gone wrong" that and not able to recover a cent from those patients.

Ever seen a "free" offer that didn't have a string attached? Ever seen a "free" Democrat campaign promise that benefited our country? Even FREEdom isn't 'free'... asked anyone who has achieved it.

Online story: "The Georgia House on Thursday passed what could become the state’s first hate crimes legislation. Georgia is one of five states that does not currently have such a bill. * “Hate can be used as a tool for evil to undermine the law and order that we take for granted some times,” Rep. Chuck Efstration (R-Dacula). * The bill toughens penalties against those convicted of crimes committed “because of the actual or perceived race, color, religion, 19 national origin, sexual orientation, gender, mental disability, or physical disability” with a prison sentence of up to 12 months and a maximum fine of $5,000." -- Haven't read it yet, but let's pray that the final bill presented to Governor Kemp includes wording that the law will be applied equally REGARDLESS of age/sex/race/gender .. Hmmm.. it would be the FIRST such "hate crime bill" to do so.

Online story: "Democratic Whip Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) defended his colleague Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) by reasoning that she is higher than Jews on the pyramid of intersectionality. In an interview with The Hill on Wednesday, Clyburn trivialized Holocaust survivors when he implied that Omar’s time in a Kenyan refugee camp outweighed the experiences of Jews. * Her experience, Clyburn argued, is much more empirical — and powerful — than that of people who are generations removed from the Holocaust, Japanese internment camps during World War II and the other violent episodes that have marked history. * “I’m serious about that. There are people who tell me, ‘Well, my parents are Holocaust survivors.’ ‘My parents did this.’ It’s more personal with her,” Clyburn said. “I’ve talked to her, and I can tell you she is living through a lot of pain.”" -- "I can tell you she is living through a lot of pain.”?

M/C L-E story: "Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell says political attacks by President Donald Trump played no role in the Fed’s decision in January to signal that it planned to take a pause in hiking interest rates. He also said in an interview broadcast Sunday that he can’t be fired by the president and that he intends to serve out his full four-year term. * “We think that’s an appropriate place for an economy that has the lowest unemployment in 50 years, that has inflation right about at our 2 percent objective, that has returned significantly to good health,” Powell said." -"Trump played no role"? "he intends to serve out his full four-year term"? Looks like Trump has filleted Powell's plans by making Powell admit that in spite of the unwarranted rate increases, Trump has America on a powerful return to greatness... in spite of Obama's influence on Powell. Powell cannot afford to lose his reputation when Trump does not re-appoint him in 2 more years.

MUST READ! - From the "impeach John Roberts" department - Online story: "The Supreme Court of the United States has refused to hear an appeal of a conviction of Christian businessmen Philip Zodhiates, who is currently serving a sentence in a federal prison for helping a Christian woman and her child escape court-enforced visits with an unrelated lesbian “mother” imposed on the child by a Vermont court. * Zodhiates was convicted in 2016 of the crime of “international parental kidnapping” for driving Lisa Miller and her daughter Isabella to the Canadian border in 2009, where she allegedly crossed into Canada and took a flight to Nicaragua. An international manhunt that targeted the Mennonites who protected Lisa and Isabella turned up nothing. * Miller was seeking to protect her daughter from exposure to court-enforced visits with Janet Jenkins, a lesbian with whom Miller had had a sexual relationship and civil union partnership before repenting and returning to her Christian faith. Although Isabella was born to Lisa via artificial insemination while Miller and Jenkins were living together, Jenkins never adopted Isabella and her name is not on her birth certificate. Nonetheless, a Vermont court declared that Jenkins is, in addition to Lisa, Isabella’s “mother.” -- The ramifications of this Supreme Court "airball" are huge.. it basically give parental claims to anybody who's been in a relationship with a mother and child regardless of reality.

Now, God forbid, the rich leave.” * Between 2015 and 2017, the auditors on average collected $144,270 per audit, with more than half of those who were audited losing their cases. * New York's success rate on audits can be attributed not only to the traditional methods of investigation like going through an individual’s credit card bills, but also to new high-tech tools that include tracking phone records, social media, and even veterinary and dentist records, according to the outlet." -- What's really sad is that Cuomo isn't concerned that good..productive.. people are leaving, he's only concerned they are taking their checkbooks with them, and obviously, is burning the bridges that lead back to NY.

From the "Go for it! CNN & WaPo et al...deserve to be made examples of!" department - Online headline: "CNN to be sued for more than $250M over 'vicious' and 'direct attacks' on Covington High student" -- I hope this lawyer files a similar suit against every MSM-13 company who ran even 1 extra mention of the attack on 16 year old Nick Sandmann after the compete video was aired showing the truth...

It's sad...no, sorry..that Dem. Adam Schi** and his staff met with Michael Cohen to discuss his testimony before he appeared before the committee. Sorry, because if Schi**'s claim that it was for refreshing Cohen's memory rather than coaching Cohen's testimony, then Schi** should have included at least one Republican committee member.

A record "bull market" has reached 10 years... Democrats want to claim it was started by Obama, but the reality was that Obama's policies kept the economy floundering that the FED reduced it's interest rates to zero while the hyper-inflation of printing $9.95 TRILLION in new money debt went unchecked.. Savings account wallowed under 1% interest because there was no alternative for people to invest in anything but the stock market, but it wasn't until Trump's eliminating so many Obama regulations and taxes that people felt good about investing in the economy.

MSM-13 and the DEMentiacrats are trying to turn the 20,000 new jobs number in February as a negative...what's not being mentioned is the real 3.5% gain in wages over the past 12 months, or that there are fewer job seekers than jobs available.

Are you listening? Reports are out that medieval plague diseases like smallpox and typhus are spreading in California cities where homeless tent cities exist on public streets. Build the wall...with an alternate wall separating California from the other 47 mainland states.

From the "and this makes sense to Democrats" department - Online headline/story: "Houston mayor calls for 400 firefighter layoffs so city can afford voter-mandated pay hikes for the rest * Houston city officials plan to lay off 400 firefighters, or about 10 percent of the department's personnel, to fund pay raises that voters mandated in a November referendum. * The raises required by Proposition B -- which was approved by 59 percent of voters -- would grant city firefighters the same pay as police officers of corresponding rank. * The administration of Mayor Sylvester Turner, a Democrat who opposed the raises, plans to mail layoff notices within a few weeks. Those who'll be out of work include 68 cadets whom the mayor declined to promote amid a hiring freeze." -- "a Democrat who opposed the raises" for those whom put their lives on the line? What's new?

You know... right now Democrats are preaching women's "choice"... but when Socialist-Democrats gain enough power, they will be like China, and give women "NO CHOICE".. The state will determine if and how many children a woman can have.

When the L-E finally got around to mentioning that Trump had been in town, I really wished that the list of greeters of the President, our Commander in Chief, had included our Mayor Skippy.. Columbus needs good relationships with all levels of government and not being there missed the opportunity to be with not only our President, but our Governor, and the Commanding General of Ft Benning.

You know.. the Republicans should set up a live feed from Venezuela during the 2020 Democratic Party National Convention to elect a nominee to challenge Trump, then buy up all the ad time during news broadcasts/shows on CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, NBC, and NPR and use the live Venezuela "feed" during those "spots".

From the "Tures finally gets it" department - "M/C L-E commentary headline: "Let’s stop just talking about storms, put effort into helping * BY JOHN A. TURES * Correspondent" -- Yep, Tures finally gets it.. the difference between Republicans and Democrats.. The MAGA hats show up to work, and while the Democrats talk about climate change...

From the "still tiptoeing around the issue" department - Online headline/story: "Jussie Smollett indicted on 16 felony counts by grand jury * "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett has been indicted by a grand jury in Chicago on 16 felony counts after allegedly lying to police about being the victim of a racist and homophobic hate crime, NBC News confirmed Friday. * he claimed he was assaulted by two masked men who hurled racist and homophobic slurs." -- Hmmm... and still one detail was "under-reported.. Smollett stated the two "attackers" were white and wore MAGA hats...yes.. this was a HATE crime , and yes, Obama could have been his father...

Just read the Audit files for the audit of the Clerk of Council.. I'm stunned at how the Mayor and City Manager could function without instant access to Council and Boards/Authorities minutes and purchases. Can't wait to see the transition audit of the mayor's office or the audit of the City Manager.

From the "hmm.. maybe there ought to be a recount" department - Online headline/story: "Ilhan Omar: Obama’s a ‘pretty face’ who got ‘away with murder’ * Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar ripped former President Barack Obama in an interview published Friday, belittling his “pretty face” and saying his agenda of hope and change was an illusion. * She cited the “caging of kids” at the Mexican border and the “droning of countries around the world” on Obama’s watch — and argued that he wasn’t much different from President Trump
* “We can’t be only upset with Trump,” the freshman firebrand told Politico Magazine." -- Hmmm.. bet this came out AFTER the shame bill vote...

From the "did you really expect otherwise?" department - Online headline/story: "House Dems overwhelmingly reject motion to condemn illegal immigrant voting * Nearly every House Democrat on Friday opposed a measure condemning voting in U.S. elections by illegal immigrants, as part of a sweeping election reform bill. * The GOP-backed measure would have added language to the “H.R. 1” election proposal stating that “allowing illegal immigrants the right to vote devalues the franchise and diminishes the voting power of United States citizens. * Federal law already prohibits non-citizens from voting in elections for federal office. But the GOP motion referenced how San Francisco is allowing non-citizens, including illegal immigrants, to register to vote in school board elections." -- But technically, California HAS found a way to make illegal aliens able to vote on national issues.. In 1990, the Census added enough people, whether citizens or not, to boost California's number of Congressional Districts by 7 over the 1980 allocation. The 2020 Census NEEDS a question about Citizenship included, and one with teeth in it..

I heard a Congresswoman defending her choice for abortion by saying she talked about with her husband, her family, and her doctor.. what I didn't hear...for that matter anyone making such a choice, her say is that she talked with God about it...and you wonder why liberals want to eliminate God, in any form, from our government, our schools, and our society.

A number of economic data were lower than expected, but higher 3.5% wages over the past 12 months is important. What hasn't been credited to most slower numbers is the effect the 4 politically induced Fed-rate interest hikes over the last 12 months. Raising this rate dampens construction and automobile loans which cuts back homes and automobile production.

From the "be careful what you wish for" department - Online headline/story: "Georgia Supreme Court ruling strikes down tool for tracking sex offenders * For years, Georgia law required lifelong electronic tracking for "sexually dangerous predators" even after they completed their sentence, including their time on probation or parole. * In a unanimous decision, the court ruled that lifelong monitoring after a completed sentence violates the Fourth Amendment's protection against unreasonable search. * The court reasoned that an ankle bracelet feeding location data to law enforcement constituted a never ending search." -- Monitoring was a two-way street.. while it did disclose where you were all the time, it was also a measure of where you WEREN'T if a similar crime was committed, and that alone could save a felon from a public rush to judgment.

So glad the M/C L-E finally acknowledged that President Trump came to Columbus . the L-E ignored the advance notices of him and his bride coming .. I guess the L-E didn't want to share with Columbusites when he'd get here and how we could get to see him.

From the "wink, wink" department - M/C L-E headline: "Warren says tech giants have ‘too much power,' need breakup" -- Good grief.. all she really said was that "big tech giants" haven't given her enough campaign donations.... yet.

From M/C L-E Front page headline/story: "Trump-signed Bibles offend some, but it’s a presidential tradition * But the Rev. Donnie Anderson, executive minister of the Rhode Island State Council of Churches, said she was offended by the way Trump scrawled his signature Friday as he autographed Bibles and other things, including hats, and posed for photos. She viewed it, she said, as a “calculated political move” by the Republican president to court his evangelical voting base. * “For me, the Bible is a very important part of my faith, and I don’t think it should be used as a political ploy,” she said. " -- "Rev. Donnie Anderson..she"? Please don't tell me is is one of those "gender of the moment" moments! Well, what do you expect from an "executive minister" in a state that doesn't even know what its geographical parameters are? And as far as autographing a Bible goes, I'm sure God is pleased by whomever holds and respects His word.. Oh! and I'm sure God has looked at Rev Donnie's reaction/words as more politically motivated than Trump's care and concern for the victim's needs in Alabama.

The Electoral College is a common subject of today for liberals.. they want to abolish it. I don't think so but it could use a little more tweaking.. Combined, NH, RI, VT, ME, CT, DE, and Wash DC have 22 total Electoral votes.. Those states (plus non-state DC) have a total of 9.6 Million in population. On the other hand, Georgia has but 16 Electoral College votes and a population of 10.4 Million. So let's reapportion those Electoral College votes.. Combined there are 20 Million on population and 38 Electoral College votes so GA should get 20 Electoral College Votes and the others combined 18 EC votes...and let's make sure only certified American citizens are counted against the Electoral College distribution figures in the next and subsequent Censuses.

From the "Bias? What bias?" department - HuffPOOPOO headline/story: "U.S. judge sentences Trump ex-aide Manafort to nearly 4 years in prison * President Donald Trump's former campaign chairman Paul Manafort was sentenced on Thursday to nearly four years in prison by a U.S. judge for financial crimes uncovered during Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russia's role in the 2016 election." -- Good grief! The judge reduced the sentence to 47 months from the range suggested of 19.5 years to 24 years. The convictions were for fraud concerning taxes and bank loans, and nothing, zilch, nada to do with Trump or the Russian investigation.

Remember how I said that DEMentiacrats always tell you what they would do IF they had any power? Remember I said that they say that when they don't but when they do have "power" they don't do anything about it? Well.. it's been over TWO years since they regained "power" in the House, and yesterday, their HR1 bill was presented to the Senate.. It's absolutely DOA, but the important thing to remember is that after TWO years in the making, HR1 doesn't offer anything to make America better.

 

---
From the "leadership.... NOT!" department - Good grief.. the House passed... well, let's be honest.. the House passed gas! The DEMentiacrats voted on a watered-down anti-Semitism resolution without reprimanding any of the Muslims Representatives who have led the vocal attacks on Israel.

You know I love lists... here's another that confirms why we need the Electoral College system - Online headline: "Where Do Psychopaths Live? These Are the States With the Most Psychopaths in America" -- With the exception of VA.. which has gravitated to Washington, DC politically, none of the Southern States made his list..Now, the Top 4 are, in descending order, New York, New Jersey , California, and Connecticut.. between these 4 alone, they have 105 Electoral College votes. More interesting is that these 4 states provide Hellary with 6,800,000 more popular votes than Donald Trump in 2016. Make sure you remember this when anyone tries to tell you Hellary should have won because she officially had 2,900,000 more votes in all 50 states.. so, with the Top $ states for Psychopaths voting plus of 6,800,000, Hellary had 3,700,000 LESS.. that's right, LESS votes that Trump did in the other 46 states. This alone confirms the Founding Fathers' insight.. wisdom .. when drawing up our Constitution. Had they not included the Electoral College System, the 6.8 Million Hellary popular vote surplus of votes from the Top 4 states for Psychopaths would have elected her.

From the "almost gets it right" department - Online headline/story: "Pressure builds on CNN as NAACP questions network's 'troubling' lack of diversity * CNN is again taking criticism over what some call a troubling lack of minorities in executive positions." -- Hmmm.. even more troubling is the lack of diversity of opinions on CNN.

With the possibility of Pence or Cruz..no other Republican would win in 2020. Support Trump fiercely .. so we have time to get the rest of the Republicans standing strong for Trump policies by 2024.

We have precedence...Boston College ..while tax exempt, still cuts the City of Boston a check to help pay for city services it receives...Road access. Traffic monitoring, fire protection, police protection..etc.. I've suggested this as a revenue possibility for Columbus, but this is the first time I've found precedence.

Jussie Smollett...do not..I repeat..do not let this story disappear into MSM-13's "la-la land".. along with Rep Ilhan Omar's Jewish hatred, it's obviously another racial hate crime that MSM-13 and DEMentiacrats would as soon forget and get out of the national news.

This should scare you.. the Democrats want GA Voting reform to just go back to handwritten ballots... not paper ballots that confirm the electronic vote. There's method to the Dem Madness.. many of us still remember WHY GA went to electronic voting..... the opportunity to "stuff" ballots... paper ballots.. into ballot boxes in back rooms is severely limited by electronic counting.

What GA Democrats won't tell you is that most of the contested votes dealt with improperly matched voter registration info and what potential voters wrote down during the legal voter confirmation process at the precincts. Ironically, most were registrants from Stacey Abrams' "Ne Georgia Project"... in other words, she hoisted herself on her own petard.

Online headline/story: "Some George Washington University students call Colonials moniker 'offensive,' push to change name * What’s in a nickname? To some at George Washington University, the near-century old “Colonials” celebrates imperialism and needs to go. * Alternative monikers that have been bandied about include “Hippos,” “River horses” and “Revolutionaries.”" -- Good grief!There's nothing wrong with "Colonials", but.. if a name change is/was justified... even just wanted.. to freshen up the image.. why not obvious suggestions like "Generals" or "Presidents" being contenders?

From the "Bias? What bias?" department - M/C L-E headline: "‘We will rebound’ Sen. Jones tells county battered by tornado" -- Good grief! The L-E reports that the Democrat Senator who won't get re-elected in the 2020 election (even with low conservative voting during the "Special Election", Jones actually won only 1 Congressional District (but by enough to off set the 6 Districts Judge Roy Moore won), yet the M/C L-E doesn't even MENTION that President Trump will be here in the Columbus. GA? and East Alabama area.
