TN, where guns are too sacred to destroy even when legislators and leaders say they want them off the street. Watch out for this legislature run by gun lobbyists…next thing will be a bill declaring the personhood of guns.

Even though the bill to expand the death penalty passed, there's still time to push back! Urge Governor Lee to veto legislation to expand the death penalty in Tennessee: actionnetwork.org/petitions/veto…

Rep. Gillespie sponsored multiple criminal justice bills that are facially unconstitutional. The Constitution *is* the Rule of Law, and that phrase has real meaning. He didn’t stand up for the Rule of Law; he ignored it.

When the district actually identifies what works and doesn’t, we’ve also got the option to ⬆️ local funds to education. If MSCS has a $60M gap after cuts that make sense, then our leaders should consider if our children are worth about $0.30 on the county property tax rate…

@ShelbyTNSheriff claims the problems are due to being short staffed with more youth than expected (110). But @cardelljo points out, "Against advocates' concerns, they actually went in and built this new detention center to be bigger, with more beds." localmemphis.com/article/news/l…
To add more complexity, it's unclear which agency is even responsible for ensuring youth in detention access consistent, quality education. “Whose responsibility is it, and then how are they held accountable?” - @cardelljo chalkbeat.org/tennessee/2024…
Shelby County DA Mulroy at City Council Public Safety Committee. DA Mulroy says 20% of crimes are committed by juveniles. There’s an increase in car break-ins and car thefts.
Amber w/ receipts of @repgillespie w/ Tyre Nichols’ parents agreeing to talk before pushing a bill overturning Memphis ordinances passed in Tyre’s name - he withdrew it from consideration that day…the next day, when they were gone - he brought it back and passed the bill.

Is this a MAGA Stepford Wife?!? And who is her acting coach?!?
How do you do something like this?!?
There are a lot of MYTHS circulating about bail, so today we're going to address them with FACTS. Do you have your own unanswered questions about bail? Let us know. We’ll do our best to answer them quickly and clearly.
Congratulations to @tamisawyer on a great win yesterday! Looking forward to a reinvigorated Gen Sessions Clerk Office that supports positive change in our community, especially with the impact it can make in the justice system!

At last more numbers 31 of 142 precincts in: Sawyer 7,623 and Brown 6,393. Sawyer growing lead in Dem primary for Gen Sessions Court Clerk. These are combined numbers early and elec day. Still no absentee.
That's 4.5% turnout if total voters. That means we could see less than 10% total turnout for this primary election. Tell a friend to tell a friend to go out and vote on Election Day!

On this day, 17 years ago, I was released from prison. That day was filled with emotion. I was sent to R#&D at 6, but sat in the cell until 8 (nervous as hell because I thought something had gone wrong) because a bus had arrived. The ride back to Memphis was stressful because…
So grateful for this opportunity. #25thISOJ #ISOJ
🌟And now for the opening #25thISOJ keynote session, featuring @wendi_c_thomas, founder of nonprofit news outlet @MLK50Memphis! @eramshaw, co-founder and CEO, @19thnews will chair the talk! ✨
This has absolutely nothing to do with crime, @repgillespie's #1 priority. How will this bill improve public safety in Tennessee? How will it "fundamentally change our justice system"? Who does he think currently funds our DA offices? Zero policy. Just more empty grandstanding.
Ha! 🤣 We were voting on a terrible racial profiling bill that will deputize police to "stop and frisk" any person perceived to be undocumented and deport them. My face says it all. Whoever did this yall wrong for this 😂
Shelby County DA Mulroy at City Council Public Safety Committee. DA Mulroy says 20% of crimes are committed by juveniles. There’s an increase in car break-ins and car thefts.
Here is @repgillespie on video promising to sit down and meet with the Wells family multiple times before pushing HB 1931 through. Like we said, he lied to their faces.
@repgillespie, deplorable!!!
There are a lot of MYTHS circulating about bail, so today we're going to address them with FACTS. Do you have your own unanswered questions about bail? Let us know. We’ll do our best to answer them quickly and clearly.
Final vote totals are in y’all. We won by 2,000 votes. Thank you to all the voters and everyone who supported #TeamTami. Now it’s time to transform the GS Clerk’s office to ensure justice and safety for all. 🩷

I can and will get more inane with the numbers I've got if I don't get some election day numbers SOON.
Borrowing from the great 21st century thinker Katt Williams, I want to say to them: You having an unnatural allegiance to the status quo is unlike you. (You being a supposedly independent media.)
It's been my policy to not publicly critique the work of other local media outlets, but the CONSTANT MISINFORMATION/DISINFORMATION from a certain outlet is testing me. So if I get spicy soon, please know I held off as long as I could.
Actually, no, dear colleague. I *don't* want to hear all the stuff you should have said in the meeting but didn't.
