"trump take egg!" I shout as I crest the hill. a bullet strikes me and I fall. my brother in arms behind me takes my rifle from my weakening grasp. "trump take egg" ,I mumble as the color leaves my vision. "trump take egg", he reassures me as he gently closes my eyes, before rejoining the advance.

I look forward to CM Gadd reaching out to tenants in her district that pay higher rents because of MHZC’s work to see how they feel about moving it to the planning department

my thought on Fusus that no one asked for is that, considering the number of hit and runs that happen in Nashville, I wish MNPD had enough public trust for it to work as intended
