The Rant

To the Volkswagen labor employees. Be careful what you wish for. Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.

Under Gov. Bill Lee: 2023 — record tax break for corporations; 2024 — new record tax giveaway for corporations (most of which went out of state); 2025 — $1.1B voucher handout to private school parents; October 2025 — state can’t afford to feed kids.

Dr. Chris Acuff is a political science guy, not an economist. If the City Council wants economic foresight for $200 an hour, hire an economist.

Sen. Marsha Blackburn, planning to run for Tennessee governor, says she’d implement Trump’s agenda. Did you notice the millions in the No Kings protest?

For all the complaining, the new roadway on I-24 from the Ridge to the split is awesome. Love it, TDOT.

I’d pay money to see a debate between AOC, Newsom, Hunter, Jasmine and Kamala. They’re paving their own road to disaster. Best candidates? Or zoo?

I don’t get why sports gambling was allowed to get so big. Isn’t gambling supposedly a sin? Isn’t gambling supposedly addictive? It promotes greed.

Nothing screams tyranny like taking food stamps (before Thanksgiving) while building a gold ballroom.

Trump demolishes White House East Wing without Congressional approval. Fox/MAGA cult loves it. If Obama had replaced a doorknob, Trumpies’ heads would have exploded.

I’ve been to the East Wing. It’s past time it got updated. Like an old college hallway. Republicans build things. Dems destroy monuments, buildings.

Trump said his billionaire ballroom will pay “total respect” to the White House. “It’ll be near it but not touching it.” Oopsie. Another lie.

The imagery of Trump’s Louis XIV ballroom is perfect. Sun King takes wrecking ball to the White House the same way he’s bludgeoning our Constitution.

Don’t worry about the cost of the White House new ballroom. He has no intention of paying the contractors.

Congressional approval should have been required of Trump before destructive renovations were started on the White House for the ballroom

The White House is not Mar-a-Lago, where Trump can do whatever he wants. Altering the structure of the East Wing for his big, beautiful ballroom is totally despicable.

Can anyone give me a ballpark figure about how many legal disputes Donald Drumpf has been and is involved in?

Imagine being scared of diversity (DEI) but not of a dictator (Trump).

No Kings protest looks like Silver Sneakers midday workout. Really hilarious viewing. Not serious. Adults in costumes. Silly adults. Sad.

I guess seven million people protesting is a “strong” message. Out of 370 million people?

Any political party that makes it more difficult for the people to vote is a party that knows its platform is not popular with voters.

Trump attacks openly both law and order, to the extent that GOP and Dems face major adjustments in coming months.

The president just got a peace deal done in the Middle East. Democrats are furious. Why?

Congrats to President Trump getting Israeli hostages freed. Nobel Peace Prize deserved.

How can Democrats call Trump Hitler when he is now the most-loved American politician to Israel ever?
