Biden invites Trump to Oval Office
SUMMARY: President-elect Trump has accepted President Biden’s invitation for an Oval Office meeting next week, marking a symbolic step in the transition of power. This meeting contrasts with Trump’s refusal to invite Biden after the 2020 election, which followed a violent Capitol riot. Biden described their recent phone call as respectful. This visit returns to a tradition of outgoing presidents meeting their successors, a practice observed by previous presidents, including Obama and Trump himself in 2016. Meanwhile, Trump is preparing for his administration from his Mar-a-Lago residence, focusing on appointing cabinet members with outside business experience.

Blue-collar Titans fans getting priced out of seats at new Nissan Stadium | Tennessee
SUMMARY: Frank Stiner and his cousin were excited to expand their ticket holdings for the new $2.2 billion Nissan Stadium but faced shocking price increases, as their $750 PSLs skyrocketed to $10,000 each. After expressing concerns, they were dismissed by Titans representatives. Stiner noted that many loyal, blue-collar fans couldn’t afford such prices. The Titans plan to sell PSLs in over 30 tiers, with more than 40% priced below $3,500, but critics argue that true fans are being pushed out. Tennessee Rep. Larry Miller is working on a bill to limit PSL price increases, though it faced resistance from the Titans.

Report: Tennessee has as many as 64,000 unfilled jobs | Tennessee
SUMMARY: Tennessee’s economy is growing, with employment increasing by 195,000 since March 2020 and an unemployment rate of 3.2%, lower than the national rate of 4.1%. However, the labor force participation rate has declined to 59.4%, significantly below the national average of 62.7%. Dr. Don Bruce from the University of Tennessee attributes this decline partly to the in-migration of retirees and educational pursuits. Despite a low unemployment rate, Tennessee faces 64,000 unfilled jobs due to geographic and skill mismatches. Per capita income in Tennessee is $62,229, still below the national average of $69,810 but closing the gap.
