I have a quick GOP convention sound bit for you from last night. This is State Representative Vernon Jones. Back in April, he endorsed President Trump. A black Democrat in Georgia, endorsing Donald Trump for President. You can guess how that went.

There’s no shortage of coverage from us on how transitioning children is child abuse. A Georgia State legislator agrees, and she is proposing a ban on irreversible surgical transitions of children.
Savannah Georgia Mayoral Campaign Event: Black Press Only
In 2015 Savannah Georgia elected its first white mayor in twenty years. Eddie DeLoach, currently Mayor Eddie DeLoach, is running again. But not everyone is excited about his chances. The Bolton Street Baptist Church held a community meeting. The idea was to get everyone behind one black candidate. No white reporters were allowed.
11th Circuit Rules DACA Recipients are Illegal Aliens and can Be Deported at Will
DACA kiddies in Georgia took that state to court after being denied access to state colleges for being illegal aliens. Individuals “who are not ‘lawfully present’ (are barred from) from enrolling in selective state colleges and universities, even if they otherwise qualify for admission.”
Public Educators Caught in Massive Cheating Conspiracy
Public Educators in Atlanta have been caught in a massive cheating conspiracy designed to hide poor reading and math skills. “The four principle crimes that are charged in the indictment are the statements and writings, false swearings, theft by taking, and influencing witnesses,” Fulton County District Attorney Paul L. Howard, Jr. said.
Racketeering charges are also being filed.
Nearly 200 educators admitted to taking part in the massive scandal: they tampered with students’ standardized tests and corrected answers to inflate scores. Some teachers had pizza parties to erase wrong answers and circle in the right ones. One principal allegedly handled altered tests wearing gloves to avoid leaving her fingerprints.
Bwahahaha! The 2012 “Apology of The Year” Award Goes To…
This is Democrat Rep. Hank Johnson, Georgia, apologizing…sort of…badly. How bad? I can’t do it better justice than Rep Johnson himself. Hot Air
Obama is coming to Oyster River High School in Durham, NH at 12:00 PM. Will he be discounted “50% off” like he is in Georgia on Tuesday?
UPDATE and bumped: turns out that the Obama Durham is free to attendees. But like everything else in life, there IS no free lunch. Union Leader:
DURHAM — Leave has been cancelled for all Durham police officers for Monday as the town prepares for a visit from President Barack Obama.
Town officials say, like any community, they open their arms to a visit from the President, but they are concerned about who will pay for the additional town personnel needed to handle his campaign stop at Oyster River High School.
A Presidential visit typically costs the town of Durham between $16,000 and $20,000, Selig said, as it requires road closures, accommodating a large motorcade, significant preparations and a significant police presence.
So, will the Obamessiah take the tithe out of his own plate, or consider it a donation from the Liberal Church of Durham? What say you, Campaign Staff?

**********
Just got word that Obama will be here in NH on Monday at the High School. Rumor has it (on good authority) that some folks will be there to greet him (like back in August of 2009) for a fund raiser.
He may have a problem if the situation for Monday for ticket sales is like that in Georgia (for a similar type of event). From Peach (as in Georgia Peach) Pundit:
Today’s Daily Deal: See President Obama for 50% Off
The President will be in Georgia next Tuesday afternoon to pick up some campaign cash and then leave this state of people who cling to God, guns and religion until another stop at the ATM of Georgia Democrats is due. But the ATM may be running out of cash.
The Georgia Democratic Party sent out a reminder (again) today, noting that “space is limited”. It’s not so limited that a new category couldn’t be created, now dropping the price of admission from a minimum of $500 to $250. You’ll need to be a Gen44 “Young Professional” to qualify for this amazingly low price. But again, please hurry. Space. Is. Limited.
