Squawkbox – March 5, 2026

Dateline exposed the incompetence of the entire Dougherty County Judicial System. From the Dougherty County police, the Dougherty County coroner to the Dougherty County District Attorney. The combination of these three agencies almost allowed a cold blooded murderer to walk free. I am totally embarrassed that the whole country was able to see our incompetent system.

Congratulations to all the Phoebe graduates of the Health Equity Initiative Liasons. This program is a huge step in dealing with the root causes of disease and preventing it.

OK, I’m in on the Chad Warbington columns. What better insight than to have one of the members of the commission try and explain their reasoning?

“Trump’s doing what we voted for him to do …” Like getting American military needlessly killed, forcing gas prices up astronomically by starting a needless war based on lies, doing anything possible to distract from his involvement with Epstein and reports of his interactions with children, making the U.S. the laughingstock of the civilized world, driving huge wedges between our once allies … Need I go on? ‘Cause there’s several Squawkboxes worth of this.

Old Bone Spurs needs to send his own children into a war that he had no legal authority to initiate.

So far, I’m seeing Chad Warbington using the space allotted in The Albany Herald to try and steer all blame away from himself. It will be interesting to see how his colleagues react to his public grandstanding at their expense.

Trump’s latest distraction has now cost four American families their loved ones. There is/was no imminent threat to the U.S. The Iranians don’t have missile capabilities to strike U.S. soil. Both are documented testimony of Pentagon officials just last month.

So the mayor and others think Tripp Morgan should be allowed to re-open the downtown brewery? I’m fine with that … as soon as he pays back the $2 million-plus of taxpayer money he fleeced the city out of.

Fletcher, it’s easy to cast aspersions at a group that you know you’ll never be a part of. Maybe you should play the lottery … get a chance to see how the other half lives.

Thank you, Commissioner Warbington, for clearing up some of the questions we taxpayers have. Please continue to publish your columns.

At least Bush sought Congressional authorization before taking us into war with iraq. But Trump, who has no respect for either of the other two branches of government or the Constitution, did not. I wonder when he’ll declare himself “the president of Iran.” That Man Without a Family

Maybe Trump will send his snot-nosed, worthless, entitled kids to fight in the Middle East. Don’t bet on it.
