It's fake. It's an act. He's showing disrespect to everyone in the room and acting bored because he's superior and above it all and hates all these people for being such kiss asses.

Trump is projecting again. Every accusation is a confession. He and the gop are desperately trying to rig this election. Like he probably did in 2024. The only answer is to turn out in numbers too big to rig.

All the polls, predictions and punditry about a blue wave are rat poison (with apologies to Nick Sabin). It ain't over until the final whistle. Y'all better get out there to vote. And take somebody with you.

News outlets reporting that Trump will attend the Tennessee v Texas game at Neyland Stadium in Knoxville this Saturday. (ESPN Game Day will also be here). No report of why Trump is coming. Why does he have to ruin everything? It's not like he needs to campaign for GOP candidates in Tennessee.

Whatever happened to Q-Anon? They seemed sane and reasonable compared to our current clown car administration of scoundrels and reprobates.

There are 546 of them (535 in Congress, 2 in the White House, and 9 on the Supreme Court) vs. 342 million of us. Why are we letting them get away with what they're doing to us?

It occurrs to me that for a long time we've been too dependent on societal norms to protect us from corrupt, criminal behavior by our government. Norms are out the window, and the rule of law is not far behind. Vote to fix it.

If we're making a fortune, why has the national debt skyrocketed to an all time high? And why are treasury bonds now considered junk bonds? And why can't working people afford housing, groceries, gas or healthcare? So much winning!

I almost feel sorry for the Supreme Court having to be the adults in the room trying to control every tantrum thrown by a buch of hysterical kindergarten crybabies. But fuck them. They created the monster and now we all have to deal with it.

Trump's frantic search for noncitizen voters is like Bush's search for WMDs in Iraq. Even the Heritage Foundation found that claims of massive "illegal immigrant" voting are a myth. This all reeks of desperation. Why are Congress and the Supreme Court allowing this to happen? Remember in November.

Do not vote for any Republicans. Period. Local, state or federal. No matter if they seem moderate, rational, reasonable, or anything else. They have shown their true colors by enabling traitors and criminals. They need to repent and reform for at least a generation or two before getting back to us.

Bubba's post leads me to seek out the performance that he referenced, which I have yet to put hands to. But there is a rendition of "my mountains, my home" from a telethon to support victims of the 2016 Sevier County wildfire (Trump still fighting claims thereto) www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-I0...

A photo of Dolly I took at the 75th Anniversary Rededication of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park in 2009. After her performance she thanked everyone for coming and said "now I gotta go VIP." Full report of the event: www.knoxviews.com/permanent-en...

Isn't it illegal to vote in a different precinct than the one you are assigned to? Anyway, this sounds like a civil rights violation. As if the rule of law mattered any more.

A couple of decades ago in a former life I was contacted by Alexander Haig's cable tv business talk show people about appearing on the show to talk about our tiny niche bank services software. I was baffled. Arrangements proceeded until they started asking for lots of money I didn't have.

Education, affordable housing, business incentives and some regulatory policies set Congressman John Rose and Senator Marsha Blackburn — both Trump-aligned conservatives — apart in Tennessee’s gubernatorial primary. ✍️ @sarahgracetaylor.bsky.social

Blackburn and Rose split on some Tennessee policy plans - Nashville Banner
Marsha Blackburn, John Rose share their views on education, housing, taxes and more ahead of the Aug. 6 primary. There are many similarities but some differences.

Fast food corporations can run all the TV ads they want about their awesome new or otherwise delicious offerings, but if they don't enforce or even monitor minimum standards for local franchise/operator outlets they are wasting their money. Money that could be better spent on local operations.

Google AI: This writing earns a grade of C+ (78%) for a high school sophomore level. While the paragraph clearly states a political position and includes relevant historical context, it struggles with the academic tone, punctuation precision, and structural flow expected in 10th-grade writing.
