“They got money for wars, but can’t feed the poor.” — Tupac said it years ago… and here we are. The Pentagon is now asking for an additional $200 BILLION for this war. We always find the money for war. But when it comes to housing, healthcare, or feeding people? Suddenly it’s crickets.

WATCH: Fourteen-year-old Ariana spent more than 45 days at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center. In January, we asked detainees whether their children would be willing to write letters or draw pictures about their experiences. Listen to Ariana tell her story: 📽️ @joannashan.bsky.social

Still not sure if we need Medicare for All?

Trump ended the IRS Direct File program that allowed millions of taxpayers to file taxes for free. That happened after Intuit, the maker of TurboTax, lobbied the government to block the IRS from launching its own program. Intuit also donated $1 million to Trump’s inauguration. See how this works?

Federal Judge Eli Richardson has given Immigration and Customs Enforcement a deadline of noon Monday to file a written justification for the arrest and continued detention of a Nashville journalist.

Spotted in Nashville this week…

Linda and Rose from our Grassroots team were hard at work packaging donated items for the CMCSS Fuel Program earlier this week. This allows schools to send food home with kids for the weekend to help keep them fed while they're not at school. #demscare #fuelprogram #feedkids #montgomerycountytn

Reminder that the US military budget is larger than the military spending of the next nine largest countries combined. Over half goes to private defense contractors. This is the military-industrial complex Eisenhower warned of — on steroids.

While the McDonald’s CEO gets roasted for his awkward burger taste test... McDonald’s is among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps. And McDonald's CEO recently raked in $18.2M — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay. That should leave a bad taste in your mouth.

Sadly HB2498 banning TennCare from covering gender-affirming care passed the House Insurance Committee. We are grateful that Marisa Richmond signed up to testify, but the Chair of the committee didn't even call on her.

At its meeting Tuesday night, the Metro Council will continue debating The Boring Company’s planned tunnel system, the response to the recent winter storm, redevelopment plans for the East Bank and business restrictions along Buchanan Street. ✍️ @stelliott.bsky.social

The American people want affordable health care and cheaper groceries, not another forever war in the Middle East.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." -Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

Hundreds of residents turned out to the Wilson County Commission meeting Tuesday to speak against the prospect of an immigration detention center coming to their community. After first confirming a site in Lebanon, Tennessee, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokesperson backtracked.
