Marsha is celebrating Speaker Sexton’s plan to double Tennessee’s voucher program. Her idea of investing in the next generation is giving wealthy families a handout at the expense of public school students. Tennessee deserves a governor who will fight for all kids, no matter their income level.

My grandmother took me and my sister to see that in the theater. I don’t think 8 year old me really got anything more than the most obvious parts of the plot from that viewing.

The Davidson County Election Commission voted Monday to name John Richardson the next elections administrator for Nashville. Until last week he was an active member of the TNGOP Executive Committee, a partisan position that gave pause to some commissioners.

Oh great. Another election cycle with cowards trying to out trump the other. “No, I’m the more sycophantic tool.” “No, I am”.
“Daddy trump loves me more.”
“I’ll never do anything against daddy Trump.”

Fucking useless.

What is this mush brain blathering about? And, to prove he’s a moron, this isn’t the first time he’s said that no kings means no paycheck.
In my 40+ years of working, I’ve never bent the knee to a king and always gotten a paycheck.

It’s nice of the Court to have these pro forma days. Just hope their already written 6-3 decision doesn’t get leaked too early.

Great. Then use whatever political power you have to back someone else and get them elected.

Not that he’s working hard at anything else, mind you v

I don’t know if anyone else has noticed this, I can’t be the only one. But, the president is a fucking moron.

Bray is one of my favorites, too. He did the original recording of The Martian and loved it. Although Wil Wheaton did a new recording and I like him as well.

This week’s main story is about Paramount’s decision to name Bari Weiss Editor-in-Chief of CBS News, the future of U.S. journalism, and why we think she shouldn’t describe her endeavors as “punk.” Bari, look at us: You are not punk. Joe Strummer would’ve hated your fancy Substack, Bari!

These are mostly indigenous communities in Alaska that have been slammed by the storm.

The local manager of a small airline fleet says he is the only one doing evacuations right now!

Defund FEMA and people are abandoned. Defund public media and no-one knows.

FYI, today is Indigenous Peoples Day.

Mike, you’re not working. You have plenty of time to read the news. Or, you’re just another lying republican (redundant, I know).

REPORTER: We know the president moved forward with mass layoffs. We're also learning there were significant cuts to staff at special education services. Are you comfortable with those cuts?

MIKE JOHNSON: I haven't seen the specifics of that and I don't know
