Jalen's bailing' (on NFL media), poor Gabe Sterling didn't check the seating chart & is Buckhead city DOA?

Whew; the news we awoke to today from Athens, where Athens-Clarke police laid out their findings that detailed a raucous night of drinking and street-racing on January 15th, leading to two UGA football-related deaths. For potential top NFL draftee Jalen Carter, it was not a good day for him. He bowed out of media time at the combine earlier today, likely because he'd be asked why he fled the scene of the accident only to return 90 minutes later.

Next up, there appears to be growing consensus that the "city of Buckhead city" movement will die a Senate floor death tomorrow (good). Even Brian Kemp's administration is crapping on it. Also some bad news for the North Fulton municipal folks eyeing detaching themselves from the rest of Fulton County when it comes to administering elections: it's too damned expensive. Also, a warning: Georgia Power already got a rate increase, and they're telling us - on top of that - we can expect a 17% increase come June to handle fossil fuel costs. In 2023. Sad.

Listen, I know folks fete the likes of Brad Raffensberger and Gabriel Sterling for fending off the illegal Trump meddling in Georgia's election results three years ago, but I maintain that "career Republicans" are only being attacked by the monsters they coddled and raised all along. Hear what Gabe had to endure whilst sitting next to Marjorie Taylor Greene at a "Georgia Election Integrity Caucus" last night.

Lastly, some good news on the education front: Ben Hill County bigots only brought the rest of the county together to rally behind an out-lesbian superintendent candidate. Go figure! Also, Georgia's "Don't Say Gay!" bill is stalling out - mostly because religious school & camp folks are concerned the scrutiny may also come to their indoctrination offerings. Oops.
