I don’t live in Davidson County. (Williamson County here.) But his performance in this storm has been truly awful. Nashville deserves better. And @NESpower’s incompetence has forced hundreds of thousands of people to spend tons of money on hotel rooms. It’s shameful.
Hold their feet to the fire. The mayor. The city council. The head of NES. How many of them are sleeping in cold houses tonight? What’s the plan beside we are turning down help? The state and federal government have already declared emergencies. Get everything you need here ASAP.
BREAKING UPDATE: NES is accused of declining help from available linemen as more than 100,000 remain without power. FOX 17 News is hearing from two union workers tonight, saying they were rejected to join the ongoing efforts to help restore power. https://t.co/l0aTmY2QJQ
On the 22nd you boasted that you were completely prepared for the upcoming ice storm yet only had 125 line workers and very few tree crews. Even the 900 linemen you have as of today won’t cut it. And it’s clearly not just lack of linemen so what other contractors or vendors can you not secure and why? The public deserves to know ACTUAL USEFUL FACTS since you are a government/quasi-government agency. We want to hear from the CEO. Where is she? This is a state emergency and she should be front and center explaining her decisions, not hiding behind some social media manager’s posts.
It blows my mind when I hear from a parent who says they had no choice but to put their 7 year old boy on psychotropic drugs to treat “ADHD.”
“We tried everything,” they always say.
Really? You tried everything? He’s seven. Did you try giving him a chance to grow and mature and come into his own without mind altering drugs? It’s literally impossible that you “tried everything” when he’s still in elementary school. The one thing you didn’t try was giving him time. And that is almost always the solution to any parenting challenge. Keep working with your child, and give him time.
Joe Biden traded a guy called “The Merchant of Death,” for a WNBA player. And left a US marine behind in Russian prison in the process. Biden’s a complete and total disaster on everything.
