In honor of an outstanding scholar, colleague (Tom), and worked together with another outstanding scholar (without whom this would not exist)

My assigned roommate at Haverford in Spring 1982. I do not recognize this person from that person-- makes you wonder about the effects of privilege and corrosive politics. A perfectly fine roommate.

Ossoff: We were told that MAGA was for working-class Americans. But this is a government of, by, and for the ultra-rich. It’s the wealthiest Cabinet ever. This is the Epstein class. They are the elites they pretend to hate. If you’re Steve Bannon, how do you sell any of this? He’s literally closing rural hospitals to cut taxes for George Soros.

Leaders emerge from crises. O'Connell has utterly failed, and NES has no excuses. And no communication.

@NESpower we are without power in the Hillsboro/West End neighborhood for 6 days and have yet to see an NES truck. Outrageous incompetence

We know being without power is an incredible hardship. Please know you are our top priority. We have more than 1,000 lineworkers from Nashville and seven states resetting hundreds of power poles, reconnecting snapped lines and repairing other electrical equipment. The unprecedented damage in lingering icy conditions makes repairs challenging but we won't give in and we won't back down. Whether you are on a major circuit or a small street, no one is forgotten. Thank you for your patience and for looking out for your neighbors. #NashvilleStrong

@NESpower Isn't this the basic thing we pay for--them providing electricity? Is it now a "goal." We are 4 days without power in Hillsboro neighborhood, someone please help!

#NESOutageAlert January 28, 4:30pm We made significant progress in restoration efforts today, but we aren’t stopping until every single customer has power. Our promise to you is that we won’t stop until power is restored to all. Total customers without power: 108,000 Total customers with power restored: 122,000 Total broken utility poles: 380 We’ve added a Storm Q&A section to our outage web page at NESPower.com to answer frequently asked questions. This page also has a detailed color map showing which neighborhoods have power restored and which areas have outages. How to Stay Updated • If you are without power, please report it by texting OUT to 637797 (NESPWR) from the phone number linked to your account, or by calling (615) 234‑0000. • NES will share restoration information on X (formerly Twitter) and Facebook throughout the event.

4 full days without power, no crews in sight. Living in a red state... help!

@TriciaOhio Bullshit. ICE is acting as a terrorist wing of the far right. Those who don't know history are doomed to repeat it. The Germans saw this once.

This is one of the best, frame-by-frame breakdowns here by Brenna Perez of the Minnesota ICE shooting, proving without a doubt that ICE agent wasn't in danger, and he murdered Renee Good. Make sure everyone sees it.

The January 6 insurrection was a riot consisting of over 1,500 MAGA terrorists who stormed the U.S. Capitol on behalf of the orange felon and GOP seditionists in Congress. Right wing assholes didn’t give a fuck then.

New book, with an excellent international mix of scholars...

No joy in Metsville... and the Nimmo for Siemen trade was the worst, made no sense at all.

SCOTUS found Biden didn’t have authority as President to cut student loans without Congress. Yet they find Trump has the authority to cut whole government and eliminate entire agencies unilaterally. This is the most compromised, partisan and unethical Supreme Court in history.

What Tennessee DOESN’T need: Another Republican politician who’ll do exactly what Trump says in exchange for an endorsement. What it DOES need: Aftyn Behn, who’ll do exactly what the PEOPLE want, refuses corporate money and is a real, genuine person 💕🌊💕

A trade that makes absolutely no sense despite what Stearns says. Mets get yet another infielder, on the down side of career, give up a "gamer" and heart and soul of franchise.

Trump essentially said loyalty to the Constitution is punishable by death. Those are dangerous words coming from the President of the United States, but I’m not going to be intimidated.

BEHN: “We’ve had a Republican trifecta in Tennessee for 15 years— most dangerous place for workers, highest maternal mortality, highest inflationary cost of groceries…” Rep. @aftynfortn tells @BreakingPointsN @krystalball @ryangrim why TN7 is in play: youtu.be/yWJrqHozYTA?si…

@CaferroWilliam Yeah we know how Maga prefers those X accounts from other COUNTRIES. If we fight we win, I choose to support @aftynfortn for US Congress from Michigan & North Carolina. I just donated again to Aften Behn. VOTE on or before Dec.2nd AftynforCongress.com

Another disgusting thing about GOP posts here in TN is that they implicitly and explcitly draw on "Tennessee values," a wildly inappropriate term that suggests we must all have one view, and in the case of the current election to follow a fascist president into disaster.

I'm from Nashville, and Aftyn Behn is outstanding, and stands for policies that will help the very people who condemn her and those who have been played by a relentless uncaring, corrupt Maga movement
