Rep. Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.) proposed an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would allow President Trump to serve a third term in the White House so that the country “can sustain the bold leadership our nation so desperately needs.”

For the record, Trump is 78 years old. Assuming he survives and manages to stay in office, he would be 86 when we’re finally rid of him.

      Johnson City here!!! I do head to Asheville a decent amount. Especially after Helene (once I26 reopened) to give Downtown businesses some economic love.

      I’m a transplant living in NET. Asheville is one of my favorite cities. It’s like a breathe of nearly fresh air whenever I get down there. Have you been to Firestorm? The coffee/book shop?

        AVL is great, if not worsening and getting outrageously expensive these days. TBH I don’t even live in Asheville proper anymore, I actually like not paying $2k per month for rent. I’ve got my eyes set on Detroit in the next year or two.

        Firestorm is the anarchist bookstore, no? I’ve not been but it’s been on my radar for years. Might have to check it out this weekend now that you’ve reminded me.

          For a few years as a kid I lived in Black Mountain, but I barely remember it. I love Asheville for visiting, I don’t really know what it’s like to live there. The whole reason I’m in Tennessee is because it got too expensive in Virginia Beach. I can’t imagine it’s much better in Asheville.

          And yeah, anarchist worker cooperative. They’re amazing.
