A former Tennessee state senator was sentenced Friday to nearly two years in prison for violating campaign finance laws while running for Congress — charges the Republican once described as a “witch hunt” before he pleaded guilty to them. https://t.co/3GjrO5jLvo
You've sent in a lot of amazing photos over the last couple of days, just like this one from Phyllis Osgood. "My son took this picture while shipping cattle east of Cassoday," she said.
Be sure to keep sending your #stormshots and #ksproud photos our way!
Gun laws in Tennessee:
NO state permit required to purchase
NO firearm registration
NO owner license required
NO permit required for concealed carry
NO permit required for open carry
NO background checks for private sales
And the state can preempt local laws.
Today, we met with the mayor of Amory, MS & discussed how the Y’all Squad could help the town moving forward.
We also dropped off several pallets of generators, baby formula, and other supplies to be distributed to the locals by the awesome local FD.
We will be heading west, towards Rolling Fork tomorrow.
Dear White People.
Nobody is teaching your kids that they're worse than non-white kids.
But a lot of people are teaching them that they're not better.
If that bothers you... sit with it.
Step 1 is gathering supplies to drop off. Up next, we drive them down to MS & start working with several nonprofits to make thousands of free meals & help people however we’re needed!
Its a week since Lance Reddings death. I have been in shock. I couldn’t find words. A blank.
Finally my many impressions of 5 years with Lance distilled into one phrase. He was beautiful.! As a man, as an artist, as a soul. He was unique.
Russian soldiers from the "Storm" unit, consisting of both convicts (and likely some mobilised), formed by Russian MoD, published a video revealing they were purposefully sent into slaughter during the assault of Vodyane while blocking units prevented their retreat. The unit consisting of 161 people initially, has only several dozen men left alive. They claim that soldiers are being "taxed", and those who refused to pay are sent straight to the zero line, and if they get wounded, they'll be removed from hospitals with unhealed wounds and sent back.
A few ways to spot misinformation online:
1. Double-check sources
2. Diversify newsfeeds
3. Employ critical thinking
These strategies are just some of what educators are teaching students in a growing movement to improve digital literacy. https://t.co/1yuFKkWV2A
So @RepMTG believed the Chinese balloon had a bioweapon in it or nukes, so it should've been shot down over the US mainland thus spreading the bioweapon or detonating the nuke.
That woman is an idiot.
Regarding Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sander's offensive speech... "I'm trying not to levitate from my chair, because she leaned so hard into the culture wars, that she slid right into ignorance." @NewsHour#sotu2023
That was one of President Biden's best speeches. He hit all his marks, but far more importantly, he was fired up in a way that we've scarcely seen. Once again: this is a man who is running for reelection, and he's going to win.
