Barnhart deal rescinded

Memphis was one of the most dangerous cities in America. It’s now becoming a model for how to fight crime when you have a terrible DA. From the peak: - Murders down 47% - Carjackings down 48% - Robberies down 51%. - Vehicle theft down 80%. What changed: 1. State troopers took over interstate patrol, freeing up local officers. 2. Police launched focused initiatives targeting fugitives, violent repeat offenders, and gang members. 3. National Guard, federal agents, and US Marshals came in and made 9,000+ arrests, including 400+ gang members. Plus 629 illegal firearms seized, 150 missing children located. 4. Technology filled the gaps. Police deployed license plate readers citywide, expanded drone use, and opened a downtown command center. A cancer center went from a crime attempt every other week to none. Overall crime is now down more than 43% compared to the same period last year Memphis has a long way to go and remains a dangerous city. Its DA is still dismissing 3 out of every 4 felony cases. In fact, the state legislature just passed a bill to audit and potentially remove him. But the city is showing that a rogue DA doesn't have to be a death sentence for public safety. Flood the streets with law enforcement, target repeat offenders, and make arrests faster than he can dismiss them.

This is a clear scandal unfolding in front of us

@ByPatForde It’s nice to see your comment. Hadn’t heard about you in years. I didn’t know you were still in the business.

Hold on, let Nate cook a little. See what he can do here ...

@stoolpresidente @Return_Of_RB Suck it Dave - Roll Tide

Up 3. 15 seconds left. Bama gives up uncontested 3 to a guy going for 50. Nice defense @Return_Of_RB

@BurnerLJohnson Roll Tide!!

@KySportsRadio 50 minutes but Cats can’t play 35

That was a great game Acuff is amazing

RIP to my favorite Presidents Day fun fact. John Tyler, our 10th president, had a grandson alive until last May. John had a son while in his 60s. That son had a kid while in his 70s. And that kid, Harrison Tyler, passed away last year at age 96. So… New fun fact: John was born during Washington administration. So 3 generations of Tylers span EVERY PRESIDENCY IN AMERICAN HISTORY.

@clm250 Well said Lance! And great job on the mic!!

years at Louisville City FC & at UofL MBB. That meant a lot to me. And when I see him, he always asks about my health (which is excellent, btw), following my tango with cancer a few years ago. Just knowing a legend like Bob is special & I hope to hear him on air again soon. 2/2

Not taking sides on something I know little about, but it feels like a good time to say how much I always enjoy listening to Bob Valvano. He's witty, kind, and has a brilliant basketball mind. Regarding his kindness, Bob often offered encouraging words to me in my early 1/2

I think I’m gonna put on Any Given Sunday. More action than this Suoer Bowl
