Tennessee Democrat congressman says party 'facing extinction' in his state, relying on 'blind hope'

She's stupid. History repeatedly shows that the party in control, doesn't stay in control. They become increasingly oppressive, complacent, egoistical, greedy, and ever more dishonest. Society reaches it limits of tolerance and gets rid of them. Then the whole process repeats with the other party. All she's doing is making herself looklike a stereotypical [ ].

In truth, based on his posts, Dalt has herd hatesis, has an obsidian-pallid cognitive mentality, has erroneous extremistism, and rigid inflexibility. As such, Dally can't help being what he is. Fortunately, it isn't normally contagious, except for those who are predisposed to Trunpian or MAGA-ic infections.

Nashville absolutely treats Memphis like trash. The slavery analogy is too far but this is what she hears from her constituents.

TDOT makes absolutely no effort to maintain the roads that are their responsibility here. The City of Memphis has taken over some of that (without reimbursement) bc TDOT won't do their job.

Highway Patrol went 4 years without patrolling roads that are their responsibility in Memphis and it took a threat of a court order to get them back to doing their job. Crazy thing happened when THP showed back up on interstates - interstate shootings went down 80%.

Both bridges crossing MS River have had multi-week shutdowns due to TDOT neglect in the past years.

You actively have TN Econ Dev recruiting businesses from Memphis to Nashville. You have different sets of rules for those that choose to expand in Memphis vs those elsewhere in the state.

Memphis has their issues for sure. Some of the people elected are incompetent.

However, unlike every other city in the state, Memphis has to allocate a large amount of its tax revenue to items that arent their responsibility because of absolute neglect from Nashville....

Analysis: How Nashville and its suburbs subsidize Tennessee's state government • Tennessee Lookout

In Tennessee, 79 of 95 counties generate less tax revenue than the state spends in their counties, with most relying on Nashville-Davidson.

just because you cannot see what is given doesnt mean it isnt

Only reason is that TN Care outflows are included but TN inflows (from Fed subsidy) aren't. Take TN CARE mismatch out and this looks a lot different...
