PSA: If you're driving on TN highways at night, completely sober, you can still get charged with a DUI. Tennessee's insatiable drive to feed the prison industrial complex has now extended to trooper quotas for DUIs, and sober people are getting charged. www.wsmv.com/2025/10/27/f...
Former Tennessee troopers say DUI quotas led to arrests of sober drivers
Ashley Smith and Adam Potts, both former THP troopers, told WSMV4 Investigates the repeated insistence to increase DUI arrests is inadvertently resulting in innocent people being charged with DUIs.

POTUS left the U.S. during a shutdown- nothing says "I don't care about Americans" like that. And Lee just released this disgustingly political nothing-burger. If R's want to reopen, they can change the Senate filibuster rules and do it! It's on them.

Guess who's still getting paid in this shutdown? ICE agents! They're even getting signing bonuses- that's YOUR tax dollars- we can't afford to fund SNAP or air traffic controllers, but we ARE paying Proud Boys and Neo-Nazis to cover their faces and attack our citizens.

Ex-TN Highway Patrol troopers say they were pressured to arrest people for DUI’s to get higher pay, likely leading to sober drivers being arrested — “This is corruption. We’re ruining people’s lives.”
