Primary election is tomorrow for Tennessee congressional district 7. Show up, show out. With how things seem currently, strong candidate could flip TN. They need the support. If you need real time stats/where to vote: sos.tn.gov/elections/se... Nashville D7, let’s get it rockin’

A constant in my life the last 10 years. Binx Okeke.

Titans first win of season!! They weren’t supposed to win that game by the odds.

You may have heard Marsha Blackburn is running for Governor in Tennessee 🙃. Whose running on the D ticket? One candidate I’ve been really digging is @jerrigreen4tn.bsky.social ! Will need all the support possible to flip Tennessee. greenforgovernor.com

HOW IT STARTED VS. HOW IT'S GOING In 2019, I was cited for protesting our former Speaker of the House, now serving time for corruption. In 2025, I'm the only woman running in this seat. Women don't wait for permission to lead — we fight, we build, and we change the game.

THIS moment of clarity is what I hope we can arrive at. We’re stronger than we think. A quote: “In the depth of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer.” Albert Camus

early Nashville traffic rapture report: LOTTA unsaved folks it turns out

They're about to shut down the government to protect the Epstein Files from disclosure. Whatever is in the files must be so unhinged as to be beyond imagination.

A lot of Tylenol consumed at the U.N. today

WeGo has 1,500 stops with no place to sit. I look forward to the completion of the Choose How You Sit initiative. As a city, we shouldn’t have to wait for perfect to move the ball forward.

Hey friends, just some basic infosec stuff to keep in mind. - Don’t update Tik Tok. Hopefully you didn’t download the new app. - If you can(you can), look at other options outside of Open Ai products. Be weary of wrappers that still use it. -If on IOS mobile devices - Turn off Apple Intelligence.

HAVE YOU VOTED EARLY YET??? Polls are open this Saturday across CD7! Today Miss Renee & I are at Bordeaux Library talking to voters about how we can make life more affordable for Tennesseans. Check your polling place and time by clicking the link below! www.aftynforcongress...

Maybe this is a hot take, but something I’ve noticed regarding number of endorsements. Particularly in Tennessee congressional District 7. They mean something, but not at the level they have in past. You need the right ones, NOT the most.

@voteluismata.bsky.social just an appreciation. Use to be involved with CWA, saw ya holding sign somewhere. Heard ya speak. Seen ya at some events. Thank you for organizing in Tennessee. It means something. You belong.

TENNESSEE WOMEN ARE RAGE VOTING A small glimpse into early vote totals shows that women are outvoting men 65% to 35%! This gap may decrease, but women are using this race to show they are fed up with what's going on. Aftyn is the only woman seeking the Democratic nomination.

Nashville’s bench building party this Saturday! RSVP below

WKRN Nashville Channel 2 is owned by Nexstar. I can only imagine what things will be like by this time next year. (JoJo Rabbit looms in my mind)

Before he was a Senator, a candidate for President, and our greatest champion in the fight against oligarchy, Bernie Sanders was the four-term Mayor of Burlington, VT. I sat down with Bernie in Astoria to talk about the lessons he learned—and the work ahead.

finally got the bill for my upcoming study abroad. anyone wanna commission me to help offset the costs?

Know who I’m voting 4. Have talked with all the candidates on ticket. @aftynbehn.bsky.social is the only candidate on it actually ready to do the work for Tennesseean’s now. No shade to other candidates, just what it is. HMU 4 ride, assistance,etc. #tennessee #earlyvote #specialelection #politics

A perfect afternoon in Astoria.

Mayor Freddie speaking @ Central Labor Council of Nashville annual march and cookout. Unions came out today. The solidarity is amazing.

Can this model not be copied in other parts of country ? One of the reasons @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social is up. The team makes getting involved easy and accessible. Many want to help, but don’t know how. Well….become so accessible, viral, it’s hard not to want to help. Interesting things in NYC.

This track was an experience.

USAmericans are not prepared for how annoying and expensive this will be www.404media.co/trump-tariff...

been studying this campaign. They make canvassing and getting involved EASY. Lot of events for different schedules. They’re all in. While everything done in NYC won’t work in the South - Mamdani and team are….available. They’re comms are A++. Organizers should take note.

Officials: Intercity Amtrak station could better connect Atlanta to Savannah, Nashville, Charlotte, beyond

Fully back the workers of Air Canada on strike. Have stood on those lines with Communications Workers of America. You’re seen and heard friends. We support you. In solidarity.

UPDATE: “This mayor is a hot mess.” MASON, TN’s aldermen voted to approve the contract with CORE CIVIC 4-3-1, but rejected the contract with ICE. @votegloriaj.bsky.social was there for this hectic scene. The meeting used a karaoke machine for a speaker. More: www.actionnews5.com/2025/08/13/p...

That’s on you Burchett. Any county, any time. I’ll show up, doubt you would. You’ve built a world around you that is safe. People see that ya know. Like how do you feel good saying that? Ya mind as well stay there and never show face in Tennessee again. Pitiful.

Nashville

Happy Monday. Let’s show up in our lives today friends 💪🏽

You’ve heard me say it before: the only thing New Yorkers hate more than a politician they disagree with is one they can’t trust. And you can’t trust a word Andrew Cuomo says.

BREAKING: United Airlines grounds all flights nationwide due to a critical systems failure. Wow! Another giant failure during the tRump years.

Off the rails.

Someone needs to ask Adriana Kugler if she was threatened.

Donald Trump and Republicans cut funding for PBS to help pay for tax cuts for the wealthy. In doing so, they cut an essential public service that millions of Americans rely on — including many in rural communities. Another casualty of the Trump budget.

“What did you think Epstein was ‘stealing’ those women for?”

How your email found me:

ATTN: If you're one of the Treasury employees that handled Epstein's Suspicious Activity Reports, feel free to reach out to me via signal (in my bio). I’ll keep you anonymous- as I have the thousands of current and former federal workers who have sent me tips. Please share this widely. 🙏🏻

Works for me! 👍
