But the corporations will give it back to you through stock dividends from increased profits... 🤔🙄 ...um, after CEO pay, millions $$ to lobbyists, and even if they would give dividends, how many Americans have any stock/IRA/401k? Let me tell you: not most.

With this airport law just passed by the state legislature, I sure hope the appointees made by state politicians include folks from Kentucky, because I run into people from Bowling Green and beyond every time I'm at BNA. (satire)

Who are we going to recruit to run against CM Eslick in D11 in 2027? We need a trustworthy, decent, and principled leader there, and no one has come forward yet, only an attention-seeking has-been turncoat.

I got a lot of it wrong but I (🤞) got the important part right.

Re: ban of Pride flags in government buildings… “Charlie Kirk Day” “bible in school” I guess those are not about any particular political view? Bulso and his cronies are hypocrites, and it couldn’t be more glaring than this.

Watching CBS Sunday Morning segment about the struggle to get a Desert Storm Memorial in D.C., and I'm reminded how much Gen X is just not thought about in this country.

I stand with my Council colleagues. Thank you for your leadership.

If I were a moral and Christ-following Republican in the legislature I may want to push back on the Governor. Jesus would feed needy children. 🤷‍♀️

Crews worked way faster than expected, and they anticipate they will have the road back open before 1pm! Thank you to our Metro workers for always coming through for us!

Morning! In Inglewood (part of D7) Gallatin at Greenland (near the fire station) is closed for the next ~8 hours. Huge tanker spill. All crews are on site (Fire, OEM, MNPD, TDEC) and the spill is contained. None of it went into the water supply.

Happy holidays y’all! Off grid. ✌️ See you in 2026.

Annual donation hit my bank this week and I didn’t recognize it. Looked it up and got a warm, fuzzy feeling when I realized it was the @tennesseelookout.com. Worth every penny. Donate today.

Long term closure would be disastrous for East Nashville and Downtown. Potentially massive safety and quality of life issue. Working to get more certainty here. www.nashvillepost.com/politics/met...

ICE spotted in Inglewood. D7 has a large immigrant population, plus ICE targets Home Depot and we have one of those. If you see ICE call Music City MigraWatch 615-933-8409.

We all need more fun and positivity in our lives. Come join the South Inglewood Neighborhood Association to wrap up this project today at Riverside Village!

Excited to be in @newschannel5plus.bsky.social at 7p with CM Johnston. Call in with a q about anything!

Visiting this weekend. PDX is fine. Like normal. Well, Portlandia normal.

Repping hometown D while repping hometown BNA on an early Saturday. (Also repping 🐶 scratch on upper lip.) @bradengall.bsky.social

If you're a fan of free speech, including by our comedians, here are some advertisers on the local Nexstar affiliate that you can avoid until they decide to advertise elsewhere. Reminder: this profile is not an official account.

Hey Disney - (ABC, ESPN, Hulu, etc) - glad you'll miss me. Now is the time not only for individuals, but also for advertisers/sponsors to pull out too. LFG

Imagine if we passed No Right on Red on all major streets, like those with transit at least. 🤔

Listened to a piece on @npr.org #AllThingsConsidered about robots made to be like humans. Gave examples like C3PO, but neglected to mention Rosey Jetson. 🧐

Thinking about the Trump/Epstein thing and just remembered that one of them was on a hot mic talking about grabbing women by the p*. If it talks like a duck…

Hold them accountable. Stand up for our trans community. 🏳️‍⚧️ 💪

Big Beautiful Bill my ass.

Great Pride event at the Sounds game tonight. Bumped into lots of friends. And home on the 34 (my ace in the hole). @brendagadd.bsky.social @oliviahill247.bsky.social @russbradford.com @seanforfive.bsky.social @rollinhorton.bsky.social

The Pixies opening for Weezer

I very much enjoyed a visit with Northern Ireland’s MP Pat Cullen yesterday at the courthouse. She is a leader for her district, and also for nurses, having led 270,000 nurses to strike for better working conditions and pay. 💪👩‍⚕️👨‍⚕️Onward with our strategic relationship with this important ally! 🇮🇪🇺🇸

These are the colleagues I’m proud to serve with.

It was an honor to spend the morning with @emilyfor7.bsky.social and the incredible Isaac Litton Alumni Association, who’ve captured the stories of 41 alumni who gave their lives in service to the country. I helped place a wreath to commemorate their sacrifice. It’s our charge to ensure it matters.

No one out in Madison/Rivergate/Opry Mills/Dickerson. No ICE/THP. No traffic. Let's get out and support our small, local businesses tomorrow.

I believe the only state roads in Madison are Gallatin Pike (north of Briley) and OHB. And if they pull people over into parking lots/gas stations, those are private property. All other side streets are city-owned. If I'm wrong, please comment.

I just heard that ICE and THP were in Madison overnight. Working on details now. Will keep you posted.

Issac Litton Lions at the courthouse bus stop ❤️🦁

Waiting for a decision from the chair be like 🍿 @delishiafornash.bsky.social

You do not have to let them enter. You should remain silent. You should not provide them with any documentation, including your ID. Spread the word. More here: nashvillebanner.com/2025/01/06/u...

Little ride on the 55 last night downtown. Was packed. SRO. Let’s roll! #CHYM

Trump interview takeaway. He trusts his lawyers and is following their advice. Not sure why he keeps taking advice from LOSERS.

We were glad to join the Metro Nashville Council LGBTQ Caucus tonight at Frankie J's to provide an update on the recently completed state legislative session.

Never been a better time to introduce my nickname for this program. F.U.sus (yes, that's GenX merged with GenZ jargon)

Hanging outside my favorite Fire Hall #29 at the Inglewood Station inbound (for both WeGo #56 and #34) for a quick grocery trip.

Great way to start the day @bradengall.bsky.social

Made it. 😴

I might make it home before normal bedtime.

Aaaaannnndddd here

Hanging on the 56. Missed the first one by 30 seconds. Second 56 came in seven minutes. Public transit works. And hey there @sandrafornash.bsky.social

The 34 is another option and I’m taking it! 10 min ride Downtown —> SGWBBQ @bradengall.bsky.social
