Ossoff for President? Not so fast (says one local scribe)

PLUS: Donald pisses off Knicks’ fans; where’s the proof from the FBI / Fulton seizure & MARTA’s naysayers seem unaware of the authority’s efforts to address homelessness

The Atlanta Journal Constitution’s Patricia Murphy – perhaps as a response to national media fawning over Jon Ossoff as a potential 2028 contender – brought the wet blanket to that notion.

Okay fine; but it’s hard to argue that his being on a potential 2028 ticket wouldn’t make it a better ticket.

Donald Trump showing up for the New York Knicks’ NBA Finals game earlier this week was clearly another “Make a Wish” presidency stop: more about him and less about the tens of thousands there or the hundreds of thousands who hoped to attend watch parties around the venue. Fans there let him know they were pissed, but the nationally syndicated morning show “The Breakfast Club” also weighed in on Stephen A. Smith’s disdain for Trump’s presence.

The AJC reports on the FBI seizure of Fulton County 2020 boxes of ballots: that it’s “investigation fails to deliver, so far.”

Ya don’t say.

The thing about “big city” issues is (I’ve said this many times) that Republicans never offer actionable solutions, but like “Statler & Waldorf,” the old snipes in “The Muppet Show” balcony, have snide comments and no contribution.

Most right wing MARTA grousers are likely unaware MARTA’s actually long teamed up with an Atlanta homeless advocacy organization (gift link) to assist the unhoused who show up in their stations and on their trains.
