Remember when Republicans refused to testify to Congress during Trump’s impeachment? Why didn’t we charge them?

Let tonight be a lesson to all of us: Make sure you have established your own, and are aware of your loved ones', advance directives. Do you want to be awakened from your slumber when It Happens? Or do you want to find out when you awake naturally and unlock your phone? Let your loved ones know.

About 25 of us turned out for today’s walkout in Franklin County Tennessee. #nokings

Picked in my yard this week. They are confused and a bit early, but proof that spring is coming. Hang in their Blueskiers!

A must listen.

Hey Venezuelans in the US who are cheering the US invasion of you country, I hope you’ve been working hard to get that US citizenship, because now that Maduro is gone and Trump is in charge, there is no reason to maintain your TPS. Good news is you will get $3k and a free plane ride home.

Any team that has participation stickers on their helmets should not be considered mature enough for bowl games. Way to go #Miami!

I made a pie.

One week until we make history. Make a plan to vote early today, tomorrow, or on Friday, or on Election Day next Tuesday. Spread the word!

He’s right. Why is Aileen Canon still a judge?

So who else got a flame thrower for Christmas! Best Christmas present ever!

Supreme Court Refuses to Allow Trump to Deploy National Guard in Chicago Merry Christmas to us! Article gifted.

We purchased this view 5 years ago. This is the southern end of the Appalachian Mountain range, the oldest mountains in the world. They used to be as high as the Himalayan mountains but have eroded over millennia. I am one lucky human to get to watch over this landscape.

Indiana Lawmakers Reject Trump’s New Political Map So much winning today. Way to go Indiana!

“Behind that policy was a quieter goal: to ensure survivors did not end up in the U.S. judicial system, where court cases could force the administration to show evidence justifying President Trump’s military campaign in the region.”

This is a little video about a new Olympic sport, Team Mountaineering. The US team qualified this week be beating Canada. But what is really amazing about this sport is that each team is made up of one man and one woman—finally a coed sport.

It’s a beautiful day in the neighborhood. #Bluesky

I heard that Papa John is awarding him the Noble Pizza Prize.

Do you know what AI might actually be good at doing? Drawing competitive and fair congressional maps. It couldn’t be worse than what we’ve got now.

After not putting up a tree for the last couple of years, we put one up early this year. I do feel a bit more festive.

My grandkitty, Goose, came to visit for Thanksgiving. He’s a city cat so he gets very excited watching the wildlife outside my bathroom window.

In order to show how gerrymandered Tennessee, this is the congressional district having a special election tomorrow, December 2nd. It involves 14 counties. Vote Aftyn Behn! @aftynbehn.bsky.social

So Trump is pardoning the former President of Honduras who was recently convicted of trafficking drugs. Make it make sense? How big was the bribe that was wired to Trump’s off shore account?

Good morning, Mr. Squirrel

I’ve never been a fan of Friedman, but he’s spot on with this piece. If we abandon Ukraine by forcing this treaty, we have given Putin everything he wants, and permission to keep going.

Matt Van Epps missed his personal finance disclosure by 120 days. Is this who you want representing you TN-07? VOTE for @aftynbehn.bsky.social

Why are Republicans never held accountable? Why are they never forced to follow the rules?

Sunset on the Cumberland Plateau.

The Franklin County Democrats spent a bit of time this evening writing postcards and phone banking to remind people that Tennessee has a special election for US Congress and we need to elect @aftynbehn.bsky.social! We are part of TN7 but she needs all hands on deck. www.aftynforcongress.com

Snow in Sewanee,TN this morning. A bit early but pretty to watch.

This election is on Dec. 2nd. Just a few weeks away. If this seat flips the GOP will only have a 3 seat majority in the house and since they don’t believe in vaccinations it could be a very productive flu/covid season for Democrats. @aftynbehn.bsky.social

Anyone enjoying the irony that “Avocados from Mexico” is sponsoring College Game Day? #Georgia #MississippiState

Ladies and Gentlemen, may I present The Ginkgoes of Sewanee. #fall

The GOP hold a 6 seat lead in the House. One is in Arizona where a Dem has won but Johnson won’t swear her in. Another is in Texas in a safe Dem district where 2 Democrats must have a runoff that Abbot is refusing to schedule. The 3rd is TN7 where @aftynbehn.bsky.social is going to beat the MAGA!

Tennessee has a special election on December 2nd to fill an empty House seat. Just think, one more Democrat in Congress to narrow that razor thin GOP majority until we clobber them next November. It doesn’t matter if you live in Tennessee, an Aftyn win is a win for everyone.

Now that Dems have shown that WHEN WE FIGHT WE WIN, I’d like to announce that there is one more election on the calendar this year. On Dec 2nd TN 7 will go to the polls to vote in a special election for @aftynbehn.bsky.social! This seat is flippable! But Aftyn needs your help. Check her out.

Normal People Don’t Want This Shit is running away with the vote tonight

It’s been a long time since I’ve enjoyed election results this much! #BlueWave

Current view out my window. Rain and fog, and the beginning of fall. #Sewanee # CumberlandPlateau

I am interested in starting to hear from care workers on SNAP about your concerns. I'm @motherjones.com's disability reporter. Please be in touch. My email is [email protected] and my Signal is juliametraux.49. Reposts are appreciated.

It’s #MossyMonday. The forest floor. #Sewanee

Bear Breaks Into California Zoo to Mingle With Other Bears

Sumner County TN has already had to deal with Riley Gaines and the result was the head librarian in Hendersonville losing his job. Not she’s been put on the library board.

My contribution to #MossyMonday

Winchester, TN in rural Franklin County. We had almost 200 enthusiastic participants. Victoria Broderick, congressional candidate for the 4th district spoke. We also combined our rally with a good drive and filled a small SUV with non-perishables. #NoKings

Check out this article from Tennessean: Aftyn Behn wins Democratic primary in 7th District, will face Van Epps in December. She will need all the help you can give. Please spread the word. www.aftynforcongress.com

Is this what you voted for?

And that how that works…stick it to them at the voting booth! Congratulations @aftynbehn.bsky.social 👊🏼💙✊🏼

@aftynbehn.bsky.social for the primary win! This is a house seat we could flip. The Republican is a Trump pick. The election is December 2, 2025 so show your support!
