TN Dems Endorse Harris, Drag Ban Returns, and BNA’s Best Eats
It’s the Tuesday news roundup, y’all! We’re digging into local reactions to President Joe Biden’s decision to drop out of the presidential race and endorse Vice President Kamala Harris, what a recent court ruling means for Tennessee’s drag ban, and why Sunday’s “Nashville Together” rally for peace matters in the fight against the neo-Nazis who won’t go away. Plus, why was Bozo the Clown in town? We’ve also got our take on the Tennessean’s list of the best places to eat at the airport, since we can all show up and eat without a plane ticket now. Thanks to Tecovas, our Western wear faves, for being our exclusive launch sponsor!
