“Would YOU live near xAI?” “NO.”🤔 @SenBrentTaylor ally & Republican op Luke Cymbal admits he wouldn’t live near Elon’s xAI, as it poisons lower income Black neighborhoods with gas turbines Then he attacks @Justinjpearson for opposing it🤔— praising Elon as pro-environment🤡🙃

Are more plea deals to come? Memphis defense attorney Art Horne explains what the additional 20+ hours of footage on the night of Tyre Nichols’ traffic stop could mean for the next steps in the criminal cases involving the 5 ex-Memphis police officers charged in Nichols’ death.

We continue to remember our beloved @ABC24Memphis morning photojournalist Michael Morrison, who tragically passed away yesterday. You might not have seen his face on TV, but he was the man holding the camera every morning to get the news to you at home.

In the gentle tapestry of life, there are threads woven with friendship, companionship, and shared dreams. These threads are the bonds that connect us, and sometimes, when we least expect it, they are tragically torn away. Today, we remember and pay tribute to a dear friend, an exceptional coworker, and a beautiful soul, Michael, who was taken from us far too soon in a senseless crash. Lindy and the girls are in our thoughts and prayers.
