The Tri-Cities TN Holler

🔥 WASHINGTON COUNTY DAD: “How would you like your kid talked to like that? I’m astonished… if he still has a job I’ll raise enough💰to get rid of all of you… you nationally embarrassed us, and you don’t have the backbone to walk off.” Keith Ervin was censured, not ousted.

🔥 WOWWWW… Tennessee House Ag Committee chair @RepChrisTodd getting ROASTED in Scott County after selling out the people to make way for a massive landfill they don’t want. Locals were in tears at the legislature when he killed the bill last week. facebook.com/share/p/18b14n…

🚨 BREAKING: Sen. Marsha Blackburn is catching MAJOR HEAT for refusing to debate her Republican opponents in the 2026 Tennessee Governor race. Tennessee State Representative and Army veteran Monty Fritts is calling out both Sen. Marsha Blackburn and Rep. John Rose, labeling them “intellectually shallow” for dodging public debates. Fritts says voters deserve to see the candidates face off on the issues instead of hiding behind name recognition and big fundraising. Tennessee Republicans are demanding real transparency and substance in this primary — not more Washington-style avoidance. 🎥@TheTNHoller @MontyFritts4TN @VoteMarsha @RepJohnRose

WATCH: “Ag chair @RepChrisTodd was a disgrace this whole session. You should be ashamed of yourself.” Rep. @brotherjones_ confronts Todd, @rustygrills & Doggett for voting against a bill to protect Scott County & Big South Fork River from becoming “the landfill of the nation”

WATCH: “We’re very heartbroken. SCOTT COUNTY could be the landfill of the nation.” 💔 Ag chair Rep Chris Todd just killed a bill to protect the Big South Fork River from a giant landfill, causing real tears from locals. @brotherjones_ (D) tried to help Keisling (R) pass it.

We’ve been wondering when this ridiculous story about this ELIZABETHTON grandma extradited and jailed in North Dakota on bogus A.I. *evidence* would get some national attention. cnn.com/2026/03/29/us/…

Well duh. More wealth transfer from public schools to private pockets.

🔥 A++ TROLLING: “If you end up with 3 arms that’s a 50% increase in productivity.” JOHNSON CITY Commission candidate Dave Adams brilliantly trolls the commission by testifying “FOR” 🙃a planned @BWXT DEPLETED URANIUM PLANT locals do NOT want. Post: facebook.com/share/v/1CMKMi…

WATCH: “They don’t want their community buried in trash… The state won’t fight for us. Nobody is coming to save us, we have to save ourselves.” Folks will fight (vs. @RepChrisTodd) for the Big South Fork River — HOUSE AG COMMITTEE 9AM TOMORROW 🚨 Full: youtu.be/Eo2nDUHRfOE

REP. HICKS (R): “Most of it went to folks ALREADY ATTENDING PRIVATE SCHOOLS. That’s the only way it can ever work.”🤔 Hicks supported Lamberth’s $300,000,000 voucher bill, but Lamberth probably wished he stayed quiet😬 🚨 Finance Committee Next: wapp.capitol.tn.gov/apps/Committee…
