Getting shown up in the arena of elite impunity by *the British monarchy* is an incredible “America at 250!” achievement

None that I know of.

Grateful to volunteer this holiday season with the MNPd Christmas Basket Program alongside my colleague @erinfor12.bsky.social. A great reminder of the power of service and community during the holidays.

As we gather in gratitude today, let’s also remember those who may be facing challenges this season. May we continue to look out for one another and build a community where everyone feels supported.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your families.

Just wondering if @freddieoconnell.bsky.social will do a concert with David Guetta?

‘organizers told the Banner they had secured “more than enough” signatures to initiate a recall of Horton but declined to submit them out of fear of retribution. A group representative would not allow the Banner to review the signatures to confirm the amount.’

Metro goes from $7M in investment to $42M under this new deal. Absolutely not! This money should be invested in our existing communities!

Hey let’s talk! There’s some nice lakeside property near BNA and I40!

This is where we throw the mud then drink a beer.

Today, we honor all who have served our nation in uniform. 🇺🇸

I’m especially proud to remember my own family’s service:
• Great-grandfather C.C. Newsome – France, WWI
• Great-grandfather Jasper Fortney – Pacific, WWII

Their courage reminds me that freedom is never free. #VeteransDay #Nashville

In Nashville, immigration sweeps deter crime victims from coming forward • Tennessee Lookout The Trump administration's immigration crackdowns have created new barriers to criminal justice and community safety, Nashville officials say.

Davidson County District Attorney Glenn Funk said the immigration crackdowns ultimately “make Nashville a more dangerous place to live.” Victims afraid to report crimes or prosecute criminals means offenders, including violent ones-continue to perpetrate crime. Story from @anitawadhwani.bsky.social.

I really enjoyed being on today’s show and discussing the Metro Seal and Flag!

This was the best one, the rest were questionable haha

Shout out to @seamasbelfast.bsky.social for the concept!

Just an example of how our Sister Cities ties facilitate new ideas!

I sat down with @citycastnash.bsky.social to discuss the history of Metro's Seal & Flag, and how we might reimagine them to reflect who we are today.

The episode airs on 10/8. Tune in and share your thoughts.

I'm looking for people to meet, events to attend and stories to tell in the 37217 ZIP code (Percy Priest, Smith Springs, Nashboro Village, part of Murfreesboro Pike and south side of the airport). If you know of anything I should check out in the area, please let me know.

🌳 Excited to see nearly 500 new trees coming to Murfreesboro Pike!

This effort will grow our tree canopy, improve the environment & make the area more inviting for all. 🌱

Trump administration’s ‘catastrophic’ cuts to HIV/AIDS funding eliminates $2M Meharry grant • Tennessee Lookout The Trump administration cut $2 million in HIV research facility funding for Nashville's Meharry Medical College.

Funding cuts to Meharry Medical College in Nashville are among $783 million in NIH funding eliminated by the federal government for a broad spectrum of disease research — including cancer, Alzheimer’s, and heart disease — that had diversity, equity and inclusion components.

Spending my Saturday learning how to make our city and communities more sustainable!
