“Transit Agencies Blast “Debilitating” Trump Budget Cuts”

Progressives demand that federal taxes be high, and that the executive branch have ever increasing power to choose winners and losers. Then, when their guy isn’t in charge they rage and gnash their teeth at the system they’ve shrieked for for a century.

Should be changed to “Downtown Franklin” not “Downtown Nashville”. Franklin is a small, historic town south of Nashville.
