New Georgia Project claims to have regis tered over 500,000 to vote, takes two minutes online. No mention of how many were legal'. Lt. David Knight of the Redbone Fire Station deserves our gratitude for the care and con cern that his first responders show for the safety of Lee County residents. The station's response to a residential fire hazard was met with professional discretion and judgment by all involved. Life works well here in Lee County. Thanks a bunch! Sussman trial showing all the illegal/question able events surrounding the Russian dossier. But what will be the outcome'? Nothing. What's next on the pandemic list? Looks like monkeypox will be it. Albany was an early hot spot with covid, stay away from the monkeys, German dissident's plot to kill Hitler in 1944 was code named "Valkyrie". Very likely, a named Russian plot to kill Putin is in the works, hope fully with better end result. Repaving of Cookville Rd was fast and looks great. Now, if we can keep the big trucks tak ing short cuts off of it, maybe we can make it last. First serious rain in a month welcome event for the yard, garden, and creatures. About de cided when the heat kicked in we were headed for trouble. Watch out for all the little urchins in the street with school letting out. Situational awareness is hard to teach kids. Difficult to figure out who to vote for in pri maries. Tried to choose lesser of the weasels and weed out the scoundrels but only time will tell. While vacationing on GA coast I'm hearing a lot of people cheering Brandon on. Didn't know he was so popular over here. Russia has banned a lot of US citizens--most- ly politicians and self anointed important peo ple. Obviously, as a sign of respect, Trump isn't one of them. There's a difference between a hand up and a handouts. I thought growing old would take longer. Sure hope Smithville can keep their police department with the reduction in Local Option Sales Funds. The police works a lot of cases that deputies will have to handle if the depart ment goes away. For all the folks taking freebie handouts rather than working the difference is pride. Some people call me crazy, I prefer happy with twist. Gas over $4.00 a gallon not including state taxes. Baby formula shortages, empty store shelves, illegals crossing boarders, fentanyl and other drugs coming into our country, crime running rampant everywhere. Our freedom of speech being censored and stripped away. Lee county school board, do your job and pro tect all students! Not just certain ones! This threat shouldn't be taken lightly! That stupid reply you gave to WALB is lame and ya just trying to protect your butt! What about that child? Drivers beware school is out. Watch out for the children. Following the completion of the ongoing and planned economic collapse of America, China and Russia may launch a 9 pronged attack on America. Americans better scrap Biden and reelect Trump. NYC Mayor Adams talks about running for president. This man and other Dems pushing to legalize abortion all the way to right before birth. No way I say to any of them. They're immoral, the devil in disguise. Soon America will be under medical martial law imposed by the World Health Organization (WHO). Ebola and Small Pox will complete the economic destruction of America. Why is Leesburg water tasting and smelling like chlorine periodically? Everyone have a safe Memorial Day and honor those who gave all. Why does Lee County public work employees not wear seat belts? Lee County vehicles are being used for per sonal trips to banks and restaurants. Are the employees reimbursing us for the gas? Thank you Lord for the rain. Leesburg public work employees are doing a great job patching holes in the pavement. If you keep electing democrats who push aborting babies from conception to 28 days after birth what is to keep God from aborting you? Biden's abysmal approval rating plummets again in new poll. Lowest since taking of fice...39%. down 24 points from last year. AP poll. Barney Fife and his group are in deep trouble.
