I voted NO on the School Vouchers. It's unconstitutional and a redistribution of wealth. We are putting public funds into private schools.
The government is taking money out of your pocket and deciding who else can have it.
Instead, we should be focused on making public schools excellent.

Meh, this a case of who did it better. My fave: 1932-era Tony Camonte Scarface, who had it right it (they couldn’t use actual name of Capone since he was still alive):
“Do it first, do it yourself, and keep on doing it."
Little surprise to anyone who read Harlan Ellison’s 1967 sci-fi story, “I Have No Mouth, and I must Scream.” About an AI named “Allied Mastercomputer (AM) that becomes sentient, jealous and quite cross with the flesh-and-blood bipeds who created him washingtonpost.com/technolog…

My goodness! I’m getting vertical integration, er, vertigo. The Eagleman raking claws over TN XGR Republicans re SB2040, the PBM bill. Charges GOP fixin’ to “STAB President Trump in the back”
🚨BETRAYAL ALERT🚨 @TNGOP @TNHouseGOP @TNSenateGOP claim to be MAGA but are about to STAB President Trump in the back with SB2040.
While Trump fights to lower drug costs with TrumpRx, Tennessee wants to drive prescription prices UP. This is NOT conservative.

Via @schelzig: Underdog Rep. John Rose (R) wants to make Sen. Marsha Blackburn's vote to certify the 2020 election a dividing line in the TN GOP GOV primary.
Interview comes after Trump passed on endorsing Blackburn earlier this week

Gene Wilder’s only real clash with Mel Brooks on Young Frankenstein (1974) was over “Puttin’ On The Ritz,” a scene Wilder wrote himself. Brooks’ test was simple: if Wilder fought for it, it stayed. He did. Cinema got one of its funniest moments.
Demise of Civility, among other things: In the beginning, there was military’s DARPA. But on April 30, 1993, CERN released World Wide Web to the human universe. Best of intentions, but this tech phobe’s take it is they unwittingly opened Pandora’s Box. Expect far worse from AI

It is no longer astonishing to just how ignorant Governor Bill Lee actually is. This man could not be leading more contrary to the conservative voter base than he is now and has in the past.
Sir, you cannot vacate your office fast enough.
