The Rant

Kudos to TFP for a successful lawsuit exposing the City Council’s secret meetings when redrawing council district lines after the last census. Here’s hoping the mayor’s office, the city attorney and the council will learn something about the Sunshine Law.

Thank you, TFP, for suing the Chattanooga City Council for holding secret, non-public meetings on redrawing local voting districts and violating open meetings laws.

Thank you to the pharmacists at Publix on Hixson Pike who keep us informed, up to date and have a smile on their faces every day.

Did I miss it? Did Trump throw out paper towels during his Texas visit?

Free Press opinion page is condoning cruelty in running the July 11 Ron Hart column, which includes this sentence about Florida’s deportation center: “Even the area alligators were excited; they heard a new Mexican place had opened near them.” Absolutely shameful.

Ron Hart is the best political humorist. He makes you think and laugh. And with his Epstein files column, he takes on Pam Bondi, et al. Love him!

TFP: Ron Hart can be funny. Making fun of a detention center is not. Tell him to do better next time.

Love that Ron Hart can call out this administration on not releasing so-called “Epstein client” list and make it very funny.

I see the left-wing cancel culture is in full swing.

Let City Council Vice Chair Marvene Noel truly represent her district. Excluding District 8 from chicken ownership doesn’t affect the rest of you.

Pave Lower Mill Road and Grubb Road. They are deplorable and dangerous. Come on, Mayor, get it done.

Old Lee Highway from Stonehenge Drive to Apison Pike is an abomination. Fix it, or you ought to pay for everyone’s car repairs.

Wow — $10.1 million for an old pocketbook? Just think how much good that money could have done for a world in crisis. Ridiculous.

If you are celebrating “Alligator Alley” but are asking prayers over the flooding in Texas, there’s probably something wrong with you.

An Israeli military strike kills Gazan children awaiting food supplements. What kind of monsters have we become to stand for such a thing?

Could the mayors in California be any less accountable? No water in reservoirs, defunded police, protecting illegals, high crime, high taxes. Disasters everywhere.

All the Dems wanting unmasked ICE agents should cancel their own personal security and see how they like it. Honestly. And they’ve got many guards.

Recent statements by AG Pam Bondi reveals the lens of skepticism through which the Trump administration should be viewed. Be truthful from start to finish!

Meet the new deep state: Pam Bondi, Dan Bongino, Kash Patel. Nothing to see here, move along.

Really? Trump misleading MAGAiots about the “Epstein Files” upsets them more than his lies, indictments, bankruptcies, Bitcoin scam, disrespect, and, oh, so much more?

No tax on tips in no way compensates for somebody losing their health care and food assistance. Budget bill passed is a life-changing nightmare.

Why doesn’t Donald Trump replace incompetents Pete Hegseth, Sean Duffy and Kristi Noem? I’m sure he could get Sean Hannity, Jesse Watters and Laura Ingraham.

I’m disappointed that people of faith follow, cherish, revere a leader who lacks any compassion and is heartless toward common good.
