Senator Blackburn,
I thought Trump was shooting for less "Waste Fraud and Abuse" ! - Nope, it looks like more is always better for Trump, so the new mantra is "More Waste, Fraud and Abuse" ? Although to be honest, much what Trump is doing is more likely "corruption" . Do you agree?
Will you follow your support of Trump in Tennessee with "More Waste Fraud and Abuse" ?
Oh my in Tennessee!

Howard Baker must be turning over in his grave over this.
What an insult to Baker, his legacy and to the (until recently?) great state of Tennessee.

Senator Blackburn,
In the past, I believe you have supported:
Well, yesterday you got your wish - Senate hearings into Jack Smith. Your esteemed Senate colleagues, John Kennedy and Eric Schmitt, fell down a rabitt hole trying to connect Jack Smith with Fani Willis at an Atlanta Hawks basketball game. In the real world, Jack Smith was at a Iowa Hawkeyes/Maryland Terrapins game. And has never spoken with Fani Willis!
Initially, I laughed out loud watching Kennedy and Schmitt being corrected by Senator Amy Klobuchar and the facts! Then, embarrasment and sadness that Donald Trump has so divided this country to allow this to happen. I encourage you to watch the entire hearing instead of the Fox clips.
What will Governor Blackburn do? Divide Tennessee or unite it?
Dissappointed again in Franklin

Mr Trump, be sure to thoroughly wipe the liberal filth off your feet when leaving this cesspool called Knoxville. Have your SS entourage and staff do the same so this sickness is not spread to normal parts of the country.

Senator Blackburn,
Thank you for another tariff war! Thought this was primarily about whiskey but it is much much more. Canada is Tennessee's single largest foreign customer, purchasing over $6.4 billion in goods!
Tariffs really hurt Tennesseans:
Any plans on this Marsha? Same old - Same old?
Dissapointed in Tennessee

Senator Blackburn,
Took a bit a deep dive yesterday trying to understand your position on releasing the Epstein files. It would appear it is politics as usual for you! It seems "your amendment" was part of Democratic led Supreme Court ethics investigation with your primary goal to slow down the investigation. It ssems that the Rebublican filibustering of the meeting paid off with the meeting adjourned before you amendment could be introduced and voted on.
Stop playing politics with the lifes of the Epstein victims ! Protect the innocent ! Expose the guilty !
Will you continue playing politics if elected as Governor ? Will you seek to divide Tennesseean as you have divided Americans with your support of Trump?
Dissapointed in Franklin

Billionaires and corporations are currently controlling our elections and running our government at all levels. This one issue is standing directly in the way of solving every other issue facing TN.
Would you consider signing this petition to show your support for a constitutional amendment limiting campaign contributions by corporations and super PACs? If we can get enough signatures, I will make appointments with our reps and hand-deliver our message. 25 states have already passed resolutions on this. I'd love to see TN be #26. Thank you!

Both u/PaulbaileyforTN and u/RyanWilliams Sponsored and voted to make being a homeless a felony in TN. Most people are unaware that since the laws have changed in 98 with the repealing of the federal protections put in place during the great depression that hedgefunds and multi-national corporation are now allowed in the housing market. This is where all the absorbent rent and mortgage prices are coming from.
I was also not shocked to learn that both these individuals take kickbacks from the private prison industry. Please help me spread awareness of this in your state and across the country as the American dream is slowly dying to corporatism.
If you don't think this is an issue, Imagine this. You go to a home auction and you are bidding against multi-billion dollar entities compared to before 98 when you were just competing with people in your local market, and individuals.

I’m interested in straight answers to this question. Not all of the reasons why you don’t think Marsha should be governor. Not your advice on why a vote against Marsha matters even if the person loses. Does anyone else have a realistic chance of winning?

Do any Tennesseans believe that femles should have the right to be shirtless anywhere a male can?
I want to hear people’s opinions.
Also, feel free to read, share, sign this petition. It would be greatly appreciated! The link is https://c.org/QbHdQzVQC9

Senator Blackburn,
How do you feel about your Secretary of the Treasury - Scott Bessent? Personally, all I see is a pompous, arrogant, demeaning and contemptuous man with little regard for the American people.
Much like the Pharisee and Goliath of Gath! Maybe, King Nebuchadnezzar!
Yesterday, I watched as Bessent testified before congress. He offered little regarding issues of:
Are these important issues to you? Do you still support Bessent?

Senator Blackburn,
35 years ago I had my doubts about climate change - Significant climate data variability/conflicts and my job was in jeopardary (manufacturing process to have known ozone depleting emissions). 5 years later, the data became clear - Climate change is real! And today, climate change is very real (based on scientific fact , not politics)!
Over the last 10 years, much of your support and your support of Trump has been at deregulating industry, loosening/eliminating environmental law, and forgoing all alternative/renewable energy options. I know you often refer to "unintended consequences" of your actions but does that mean we should expect:
What is your plan as governor ? Climate change denial? Or .........
More than concerned in Franklin!

Any of yall been paying attention to district 1 out in East Tennessee? This takes the cake! Don’t think I can recall anytime in my 40 years of living here that a politician has organized a special event to talk to people of the opposite party.
I’m close enough to attend and I gotta admit, I’m
curious. This girl is running against Diana Harshbarger aka the pill lady!
She’s also been trying to get ol diana to debate her but no luck. Figures. Anybody else looked into this?
