Texas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett says people commit crimes because they are fighting for survival. What does a thug stabbing a young Ukrainian girl who was minding her own business on a train have to do with trying to survive? Her comments don’t even make sense. 

The leading cause of injury to old men is the fact they still think they are young men.

I’m sorry that I lived long enough to see the way Donald Trump is illegally destroying our once-great country. The fact that the Supreme Court and Congress are allowing him to do so makes it even sadder. We may never survive.

Knowing some of the public school teachers, I can understand why education in this state is in trouble.

For all you Trump supporters who lied and said you thought he would do a better job with the economy — the real reason was he allowed you to unleash your inner racist — I wonder what you think about grocery bills and other prices that have risen astronomically since he’s been in office. Quit trying to make excuses; your support of this criminal is killing our country.

SMRs, pretty soon you’ll have to admit you’ll be ready to vote for a liberal in the next election.

Senator Eric Schmitt of Missouri unleashed a diatribe speech that articulated his and, he says, the MAGA political vision commensurate with racist organizations like Return to the Land, a white nationalist group trying to establish a whites-only community in Arkansas and seeking to expand to his home state.His main points: He says the U.S. is whites’ birthright, a nation of settlers, explorers and pioneers.

Why are Trump and his acolytes so scared of gay people? We’re only humans trying to live our lives.

The True President created only 22,000 jobs in the month of August. With his policies on immigration and high tariffs, he is driving this economy into the ground. Interest rates may go down, but if you are unemployed you can’t borrow money. SMRs, I hope you have saved up.

I’ve got a feeling people all over the world will soon be saying that old “if you could go back in time and see Hitler as a baby, would you …” about America’s imbecilic president.

The politicians in Texas are about the only ones in the country (not counting the ones in DC) who are stupider than our state officials.

I don’t care what you smart-a$$es say, I voted for Trump and I would proudly vote for him again. When he finishes turning this country around — yes, making it great again — all of you who are whining now will understand his greatness.

I admit I don’t know Mr. Heard, his wife, or any of the commission members. But does anyone else think the timing of this stalking revelation of Chairman Heard and his wife by a former church member seems suspicious? Will Heard’s alleged harassment of a fellow female commissioner be as vigorously investigated?

The Orangeboy wants to cut down on murders in majority Democratic places. According to recent news, murders in Georgia’s prisons are increasing rapidly. Let’s ask the Great Leader to send ICE and the National Guard to all of Georgia prisons to help reduce prison murders.

One thing that even you lefty communists can’t deny: Our True President has surrounded himself with the best and brightest, and they will lead this country for the next several decades.

I hope someone can explain to me why the county coroner is in all the pictures with the Business of the Week feature in the Herald. Is the coroner a member of the chamber of commerce? If so, don’t you think that is a little strange?

You wimps who complain about law enforcement in our community: I’d like to see just one of you put on a uniform — that comes with a metaphorical target on your back — and patrol these streets. You don’t have the guts, so shut up and appreciate those who do.

Why doesn’t the judge who let this SOB murderer back on the streets ever get interviewed? Let the victim’s family perform an “eye-for-an-eye” and show it on news stations?

When Trump and his cabinet meet and talk MAGA policy for America, they all fall back on their basic WWGD values: What Would Gilligan Do. Doesn’t work or hadn’t they noticed. the castaways are still lost on that island?

So MAGA Nuts, Trump says the Epstein files are a hoax. Remember when he said before that the files contained a list of names of famous people involved in a worldwide sex trafficking conspiracy. Was he lying then? Or is he lying now? Doesn’t matter, he’s lying.

America runs on Dunkin because they don’t know what a Wawa is. But we will shortly.

Albanians are sick and tired of our city and county commissioners arguing and grabbing tax revenue for their friends through housing scams and pet projects. No progress made on crime, lazy freeloading, or re-establishing real actual law enforcement. Maybe they should meet more than a measly twice a month. It’s time for actual real work.

All that the South has ever desired was that the Union, as established by our forefathers, should be preserved and that the government as originally organized should be administered in purity and truth. — CSA Gen. Robert E. Lee

MTG is threatening to leave the GOP. I hope the Liberals lock the back door to the Democrat Party.

I showed my grandkids how to eat corn on the cob typewriter style. They were impressed. Now I have to explain what a typewriter is.
