County and city-level officials will select delegates to serve in the vacant House seats until the next regularly scheduled election in August 2024, said Carrie Russell, a political science senior lecturer at Nashville’s Vanderbilt University. The expelled lawmakers will be able to run for reelection at that time, she said.from the office of the state’s attorney general.At the start of Thursday’s proceedings, Pearson welcomed his supporters to the Capitol on the House floor.
As bills related to school safety and mental health were debated on the House floor Thursday morning, Jones argued that Republicans were trying to pass bills just to pass bills in a “PR move.” Young children, teenagers, and parents stood in a light drizzle and 53-degree temperatures. They held an extended, bloodcurdling scream for more than three minutes, then chanted, “14 minutes. 14 minutes. Six Lives. Six Lives.”
Amen Mr. President! Well said!
Every single time you don’t get your way, kids get killed.
Good!!!!!
Break the rules pay the price.
Why does the news always give people like this a bullhorn of publicity and regular everyday Americans are silenced?
No! They were expelled for violating senate rules and their oath. One apologized for the violation and kept their job. The other two didn’t. In TN we expect our senators to behave with decorum and follow the rules! Invite the officers who stopped the killing to the WH!
Joe Biden is trying to destroy America
INSURRECTION!
Gay!
Disruption and Bullhorns are not standard procedure inside any state legislatures ! Why should it be here ! There shall be order in the court not chaos !
FJB
If we removed the guns from the younger generation that voted for Biden, most if not all of shootings wouldn’t have happened.
Meanwhile, you Democrats can’t leave Trump alone. Get a life it’s so funny how terrified you are of him 🤦🏻♀️🤣
Mental/illness
Red state, GOP Governors and legislators... act like they own the state and all the people in it... it's an attitude... undemocratic... un-American... frequently inhumane... GOP needs to be voted out... otherwise, we'll continue to suffer their bullshit...
I heard the Tennessee three joined the protestor call for gun control during recess. What exactly did they interrupt?
Showing me it's Tennessee
Shouldn't this be up to the voters
They should have just locked them all up for storming the capitol building. Than not give them a fair trial for years.
Looks like an insurrection. How they put them in jail for a long time.
FANTASTIC NEWS
Shut up!!
ABC news good morning America election interference POTUS
And yet you scream ‘insurrection’ at poor Buffalo Dude was just walking through the ‘people’s house’. Why do you hate blue people?
No one is above the law not even black/female Democrats
Need more resources in mental health
More of this!
Good
Dre speech absolutists when Dems lose their jobs for attending a protest
What’s going on?
Sounds like something Russia would do
When Democrats do it it’s OK when Republicans do it, It’s an insurrection.
Agree with alafuetta Simple Solution DUMP THE G.O.P
Why don't you post the manifesto from the mass murdering transgender and the one in Colorado that was going to murdet more kids vs your deflecting bs
The left only wants to eliminate guns because the NRA is a huge donor to the republicans… just like the reason the left pushes vaccines so much is because pharmaceutical industry donors are so large on the democrats… cut through the BS and employee SRO officers at all schools!
I find it incredible that 2 black representatives were expelled, and one black teen was detained, my hometown really do be showing it’s colors
Stand up against fascism!!!!!!
Stand up against fascism
Stand up against fascism!!!!!!!
Old man that’s lies
now explain how ......... they did not follow their oath. they disrupted a legislature session. which was not allowed to close. we have rules in TN. expect so much more. now watch the video of justin. and follow the law.
They disrupted with a megaphone for over an hour. Act like a thug , get expelled.. no nonsense
Colonialism Enslavement Racism Prejudice Corrupt Dysfunctional DEFACTO GOVERNMENT in America and Tennessee
Get rid of them all. They are a bunch of jerkoffs
Who wrote this
Good!
Omg I have to block you far left libs
Shame on you!! You have brought disgrace and embarrassment to our great state with your blatant ignorance and racism!! The whole world is watching and our youth will not tolerate you!
Insurrectionists!! Bye bye
That’s what happens when you incite and join an insurrection. The leftbl taught us how to respond to people protesting.
Jan 2020 biden put his hand on the Bible and swore before God and country to uphold the US constitution. You lied, to God and America. Nobody likes a bold faced liar except for Satan. Go sit in his lap and know what is is to be a child in yours.
JoeBiden supports insurrectionist.
Gop becoming a white supremacist maga rump at this point
Sucks to get canceled huh? Dems opened Pandora’s box and now don’t like what it’s become. Turns out when you cancel someone for their opinion doesn’t have such good outcomes.
This is so shocking! The people of their districts voted for them, and the House has no right to expel them for speaking out against the atrocity of children being killed at school. People of Tennessee, don't stand for this violation of 1st Amendment.
Insurrection is cool again guys
😂
I’ll just leave this here…..
'Storming capital buildings is ok when we do it'
I thought the rules were that if you stormed a government building, you were an insurrectionist and should go to jail for years after being held without trial? So we're changing the rules now? It's hard to keep up.
good! No one who hates our rights should be in any office, anywhere.
Maybe I won’t renew my passport. So much hate across the border.
What's the difference? One is a democrat and the other is not. The democrat is getting off easy, and at least he's not in jail! Rules for me but not for thee.
ReplyGPT
Love to see it, don’t infringe on the gun rights boiiii
I'm a conservative Southerner. This expulsion was wrong!!! Republicans set the example by letting Jan 6 attack on the US Capitol go on answered.
The TBI should use the full weight of the state to track down every single person that was there and throw them in jail without trial for years. Or is that only what democrats do?
Shutting down the state Congress has much lighter consequences than shutting down the federal congress apparently.
900 million puts armed guards in every private and public school in the nation 20 states have armed teachers NO SHOOTINGS 400 billion giving to Ukraine Elected officials have armed guard's Stop talking about more gun control and do something now
Misinformation Disinformation Don't fall, victim to this. Coming out from the devil himself.
So. Educate us. What EXACTLY did these law makers do to get expelled?
Typically I support republicans but what the hell is this bullshit.
Land of the free... or something along those lines...
Tyranny of a ludicrous majority
Bravo
You mean the ones who joined protesters as they over powered guards and over ran the representative floor? I wonder how many people throwing a fit as the same one calling for persecution of the Jan 6 people and imprisonment of Trump on insurrection charges? This is the same thing
Hysterical reading all those complaining about free speech suppression but same people were OK with Democrats suppressing free speech on social media platforms. 😂 😂 😂
And what is the crime they committed? Can someone explain that to me?
GOPNAZIS
This is what democracy looks like
Take notes Dem controlled legislature’s; these MFs want to play this game, we can play it better.
Civil war 2 not far away now
Didn’t they break the rules though?
Democrats create problems so they can play at activism . Disgraceful. Children in European countries get protection from these rabid experimental drugs and surgery, but evil Democrats advocate for them! Sick.
Peace is too hard.
Good!
The republicans in charge in The USA this time Tennessee - have turned to crazy people with medival ideas. Irrational. Where are the reasonable republicans gone? I fear USA as a superpower Nation if They Get back in capitol because they have many elements of reality deniers.
Looks like the republicans are finally playing some hardball like the Dems have and did the last election. Poetry in motion.

it was an insurrection or is that not a thing anymore?
No one is above the law!!! Suck it!
All 3 Nazi Insurrectionists should have been expelled and immediately taken to jail to stand trial for there part in the Insurrection
It was an insurrection.
Say it lauder! FU*K YOU FACIST! FU*K YOU FACIST! FU*K YOU FACIST! FU*K YOU FACIST! FU*K YOU FACIST! FU*K YOU FACIST!
Actual insurrectionists got expelled. Go cry
Insurrection has consequences. Right?
Once again Democrats have missed the point.
Here's a couple stats Homicide by handgun: (45.7%) Homicide by rifle including AR-15s: (2.6%) Homicide by ILLEGAL GUNS: (23.9%) Morals of the story: 1. Leave ARs out of the conversation 2. Bad people will get guns if they want them.
GOP Tennessee YOU GO! WELL DONE!
They lead an insurrection. 😉 They should be in jail.
With freedoms come responsibilities. If you're going to participate in civil disobedience, you need to be prepared for the consequences.
TheJusticeDept
Tennessee has had enough of Florida getting all the press for being the shittiest and most fascist state in the South. They're on a rampage.
awesome!Too bad you can't do more than just expel these buffoons!
Didn't you have a Democratic Congress for 2 years? Your administration chose to do nothing. Quit blaming it on the Republicans!
Tennesee GOP just convinced more Americans to not vote Republican .
I'm totally for free speech...1st amendment....I'm also about the other 13 amendments country was developed on. We can't pick or choose which is convenient
Bye bye
Republicans are the USA now. You Dems are on the wrong path to claim it. History will show!
Excuse me? Where was this sympathy for the J6 crowd? Your need to focus on the ex-president this past six years while excusing true crimes and murders makes you and the party pathetic. Bragg opened the can of worms and now democrats will be finally equal to Republicans.
Haha so they hate free speech US shouldn't lecture any country about speech.
The Marxists/Democrats always exploit tragedy to dismantle the 2nd Amendment one regulation at a time, they do not care about any of us, if they did, they would close the Border to Fentanyl, Human traffic and would elect DAs to punish criminals,These Communists always do the same
No concern over the decades long, much more significant urban homicide rate hypocrisy Typical illogical, illiberal flaws of progressive socialists Now that random homicides have spread to family/friends, it’s an urgency. Never mattered when it was contained.
This breaks my heart. Like really?
Protests in the same sense Tony Soprano was in waste management.
MerylKornfield Let me guess which two of those three people were expelled…
Total bullshit. They better get their jobs back! Where's the DOJ? This is illegal.
The 2nd amendment shall not be infringed, there clearly is a communist disarmament agenda. Blaming a tool and going after law abiding Citizens...
Expelling House Representatives is fascist.
In the “freest country in the world” you have lawmakers trying to expel other lawmakers for… voicing disagreement through protest. The US is not a democracy
Good
Very good they have no business being in there if they’re not willing to uphold the constitution
free 🎁 link to read actions of the racist, authoritarian, gerrymandered Tennessee red legislature.
Good
Do something about republicans destroying our country!
This is why republicans wanted to abolish equalRights. The race is now off. Expect to see this type action throughout the country in all work places. It is unbelievable the Tennessee government is all white.
That is awesome. Expel the rest.
There’s always more to the stories the WaPo reports on.
Good.
Boycott Tennessee TenneseeThree should bring a law suit with the Federal Government TenneseeThree
I see their version of free speech does not apply to everyone now lmao
insurrection
Love it!
Protection for the insurrection
The TN GOP support pedos but not black men. This TN GOP Pedo was actually re-elected. How fucked is that?
And these recent shootings have the stench of your administration all over them.
This is horrific!! This is so shameful and disgusting that I am sure many Tennesseans are ashamed to be from Tennessee where racism is so rampant!
If I lived in the great state of Tennessee, I'd for them out too. Daniel Boone be rollin over in his grave after their protest.
Joe, now you talk about the Tennessee shooting when it's about ousting your people. Last time you talked about it you were laughing and talking about ice cream before talking about the shooting for approx. 1 min. You are a disgrace.
The GOP doesn’t believe in penalizing law abiding citizens because they know that criminals will be the only left with all the guns. So stop trying to strong arm then into violating peoples constitutional right.
good riddance
So fucking DO SOMETHING
3 govt agents that i am sure will give up armed bodyguards
Freaks paid the price
Well a man In Brazil decided to show the world you don’t need a gun to kill your kids . Sick Bastard went to a daycare and killed some little kids with a 🪓 .
They violated the rules of the floor. You pieces of trash!
When are these people going to understand that severe gun control ONLY hurts responsible law abiding citizens!!! These people will still be able to obtain guns. Arm the schools!!! That is what will stop them
Call it what it was an insurrection.
Another insurrection that failed. Good!
Democrats need to learn we live in a democracy and my representatives voice is as important as theirs. They deserved what they got trying to start a riot in Tennessee
What about that poor guy who was going to do a school shooting with guns from a 3-D printer? Should we ban 3-D printers?
Unfortunately, this type of response is what DemocRats have been looking for the way they have been acting as well as using the DOJ, FBI, etc. to politicize justice!!!
Shame on the Tennessee House!
Well, Insurections do have consequences right? 2 years in jail without bail. Right?
GOPHatesDemocracy NRAOwnsTheGOP GOPDomesticTerrorists GOPRacists
they should learn to follow rules and still get stuff done, even John Lewis learned that lesson and he faced real string a brother up racism
Good. It's about time states started applying same rules to Dems. They are always encouraging 'they aren't going to stop until.... (insert demand)' and even standing with protesters. If want to do that... can do it as civilians. outtheygo
Johnson, Jones, and Pearson interrupted the legislative session by approaching the podium without being recognized to speak and used bullhorns to call for gun control. The trio also led protestors in the galleries in a series of chants.
You don't throw a fit, take over the house and get what you want.
Blah blah blah. Stop being so devissive. You’re sounding like a fascist dictator. Pass my laws whine whine whine. Just step down and let someone competent run the country.
Good!!
Yep … we should definitely support those who are responsible for our country going to hell in a hand basket facepalm
I don't find this hard to believe. But they know not what they have done. I predict after 2024 elections control of the HOUSE will be very different. EYES OPEN!
Based
NO GUNS NO SHOOTINGS 🤷🏻♂️ Trumps merica 🤪 close the lid & F L US H 🇺🇸🌀🚽
Don’t break the rules n you won’t get expelled.
A pathetic joke. The criminal Republicans have killed their own party.
Good riddance
Fighting against insurrection
Good!
so this 'insurrection' is good and justified ? ... hypocrisy much ?
Great news!
Insurrectionists
The black one, of course.
Insurrectionist Democrats
Insurrectionists
NoOneIsAboveTheLaw send them packing
They are voting to expel insurrectionists? Why are you mad?
Is this legal? How can they expel elected officials?
How can they expell ANY elected officials at ALL for something that's not illegal?! That's a violation of their free speech and complete fascist behavior! 😡
Insurrectionists.
It was a racist hit job. They expelled the two black members of the Democrat House, and when the remaining Democrat, a white woman asked why, the GOP house answered with THIS. 'I'll give you a clue, it might have to do with the color of our skin.' Fucking disgusting and racist
A child molester, domestic violent offender, someone indicted under a grand jury were all allowed to serve Tennessee in the legislator. Speak up for kids? Nope gotta go! Support the TN3
This young man is articulate, intelligent and motivated. They now will have a formidable opponent. He will be the leader of young voices. They fu—ed up!
Ban Democrats
GOP is just fascist and loving it. Fidel Ron in Florida is doing crazy stuff too may be nice to cover that too.
Even though they helped lead an insurrection, they haven't been treated as poorly as the J6 detainees
Excellent!!
Insurrection
'Pearson sent a letter the same day to all Tennessee representatives acknowledging that he had broken decorum during the March 30 protests' How is it that when Dems do illegal things they're not illegal 🤔
They should not have instigated an insurrection. They should be in jail.
Protest? It's an insurrection! A violent armed deadly insurrection! To the GULAG!
Unconstitutional.
I can only hope that the legislators taking this arrogant action ultimately come to feel shame and regret.
Good. tyrants. They’re the reason the second amendment was created
579 days your voices will be heard.
hollyrpeete Racist Republican lawmakers in Tennessee, disgusting. 😡
And what did YOU focus on? A national day of Trans Vengeance. No room to judge Jack!!!
Guns don't kill people crazy people kill people
I think you misspelled insurrection.
If TV news orgs want to live feed, wouldn't it be more informational for Americans to watch TN on C-Span than Tuesday night's counter productive bat$hit defendant Trump. Imagine if Americans could all see instead of having it translated into their favorite slanted media.
Well… that’s gonna have an impact on voter turnout in 2024. I believe 1996 is the last time a Dem presidential candidate won in TN. 18 years is a long streak. Will be fun seeing it fall
These lying terrorists known as the GOP hate free speech and hate our democratic institutions.
Awesome
Democrats LOVE Violent and killing people
iris_seraphina Expel them
Yay
That free speech thing. Did I miss something? Is it no longer a thing.
joncoopertweets republicans are just shooting themselves on the foot at this point
Biden’s America
undemocratic is what the Republicans wants following trump playbook of hate. These dictators wants to get the US into a fight between Americans with their non-sense & dictatorship actions. In the other hands we have people like GeorgeSantos and that blonde short bitch in.
Surely those representatives were placed in that house by the people- they can only be removed at the ballot box. I cannot believe it is legal to do what Tennessee has done.
Untrustworthy biased non-verified rag
The GOP: Jim Crow 2.0
Time to watch the world burn i guess...
We the people must make our voices heard and protest the hell out of this bullshit move. Let’s show them who we are in numbers. We are stronger together.
Dont mind me im just collecting all your false virtue signaling tears
This is total bullshit
The Chinese and Russia are doing a phenomenal job at dividing this country from the top down. A strategy that has worked for thousands of years, DIVIDE AND CONQUER. We are infact at war and yall don't even know it
Fascism, a far-right, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement characterized by militarism, forcible suppression of opposition for the perceived good of the nation and race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.
Democrat-led insurrectionists
They should have been expelled . They planned and did a take over of the legislative session with signs and a bullhorn. VIOLATED their oaths of office and acted as if their constituents were somehow more important than any others in the entire state.
👍👍👍👍
is this legal?
Well, it is Tennessee. That's where Republicans wanted to make it legal for 40 year old men to marry 10 year old girls.
Thank you staying something Mr. President.
That is just ridiculous! The gop needs to get busy with issues that are important to the American people! There are more important things than retaliation against democrats!
I predict this will encourage young voters to register Dem and will ultimately backfire against the old guard in the capital.
They're expelling lawmakers who are admitting they would violate their oath to uphold our Constitution. I don't see the problem.
That’s BS. Sic your lawyers on that corrupt body, democracy heroes.
It’s interesting Republicans are only interested in one constitutional amendment.
HOW?! If that's Possible, WHY are the literal domestic terrorist insurrectonist republicans STILL in Congress?! HoldGopAccountableNOW
and the GOP will get their asses handed to them again and again. they keep losing, it is wonderful
Republicans are destroying America
Remind me again. Which party is always screaming about cancel culture?
Good riddance.
Three broke the rules. And so far, one is expelled, and one is not. What could be the difference? What could it be?

My favorite pastime as of late is to watch dems and liberals tie themselves into knots trying to explain why their own standards applied to their own behavior is an outrage. Bro…we’re playing by the rules YOU set after years of crying foul!
Are you sure comrade? The left hates anything that's free speech, 2nd amendment. If it doesn't fit your narrative you don't want to listen to the other side of the debate.
republicants are the worst. useless in every sense
what a shame
Get those three bums out of here.
This is a bonkers headline.
Where is the rest of the Democratic Party on this? It’s shameful they are just letting them hang like this. Democratic should be airing out all their dirty secrets by Running adds on the pee guy, the child molestor, taking bribes for votes. But nothing, fucking silent. DNC
Love it
What the hell is wrong with people? Does Tennessee actually condone these killings in that they want no gun control at all? Unbelievable!
Good, you are all socialists.
Turnabout is fair play.
Democrats insurrectionist are more above the law
I'd like to say I'm surprised by the outcome. I'm not. TN. Was my first exposure to third-world 45 years ago. They were 250 years behind civilization then. They haven't changed.
The GOP Tennessee House members are behaving like fascist. There's no other word for it.
Kick their asses out
Gum reform is eminent, expulsion against gun law it is an-democractic. Our children are dying legislative. Do Something Shame on you, Nashville Tennessee.
It’s back lash because Trump lost and Biden is in the Whitehouse. Petty politics!
How long is it gonna take for us to see the don't care about us😡
Nice to see TN will not bow to a few fools saying the 60s historic Nashville civil rights movement is the same as and is the reason why they defended the mentally deranged child murderer as a victim last week during their “protest” at the capitol.
Hey TN teachers (especially those of you who are parents) - come on over to VA! We don’t put guns ahead of you & your students’ (and kids’) safety! And we’d be thrilled to have each and every one of you join the very talented teachers here in VA! 💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙🇺🇸💙
Republicans are evil
between this, the Clarence Thomas corruption story today, Wisconsin Republicans threatening to impeach a Supreme Court winner before she's even sworn in, and the entire Trump stench, Republicans sure are doing a great job showing what they think of America.
joncoopertweets Outrageous
so does that mean Congress can expel RepMTG for doing the same in NYC or is DC filled with incompetence?.... well don't answer that one.
How democratic. Behaving like a third world dictatorship now. Well done.
Tennessee fascists just removed 3 main stream Dems for opposing mass murder of school children. Fascism is winning, the dems can't stop it, it's up to us. We must refusefascism
Tennessee legislature is removing 3 democratic representatives who peacefully protested for gun safety laws, after 3 children were killed with assault weapons. We need to contribute to their re-election. It is Amazing IRONY that (R’s) haven’t removed the corrupt George Santos!
I’ll make sure to NEVER TRAVEL & stay in Tennessee. republicans , you have opened Pandora’s box. Just look what happened to North Carolina when they passed a ridiculous bill. Lost millions of dollars.
Republicans hate America
If I led a bunch of people into my place of employment and bellowed over a bullhorn to protest against something I didn't agree with, I certainly know what would happen. I believe it would happen to most people. What the hell were they thinking ?
Cancel culture is wild
What a shameful vote. This is what the gun lobby being in the pocket of republicans gets us. A child populace fearing their own demise begging to be protected ignored, and those fighting for them kicked out of office. Shameful!
Exactly what should happen when you don't follow the rules of the state congress
Thought the first amendment allowed peaceful protest?
Fascism has come to America disguised as an elephant.
Shame forever dirties the Tennessee GOP. Politics in Tennessee is soiled by Republicans.
How can they get away with this?
Fascism is alive and well in Tennessee. Taking away your First Amendment rights is a sure sign democracy is on its way out in Tennessee.
This is one of the most ridiculous things, we need an overhaul in Parliament in the UK because it's so hard to get corrupt MPs recalled. You need one because Republicans are throwing Democrats for sneezing in the wrong direction. It's scary bad. TennesseeFascists TennesseeThree

Dems should expel one Republican from a state legislature, tit for tat if that’s how they wanna play.

Because the Tennessee GOP loves dead kids more than democracy! They are depraved power hungry sociopaths.
potus SenateDems & HouseDemocrats really need to wake the fcuk up and challenge red states. This is only a test and it's happening with them jokers in DC looking powerless. Red state laws have always been racist & corrupt yet we keep allowing these monsters to go unchallenged.
Despicable thuggery from the Tennessee GOP legislature. They are beholden to assault weapons, the NRA and its money. I believe that anyone who votes to support GOP politicians has to accept their own part in the violence that harms our communities.
do your thing girl
Now do your damn jobs and demand daily this is overturned and call Republicans Fascism out for what it is.
Watching fascism in action now. Old white guy (shock 🙄) is more worried about bullhorns than guns. 🤦♀️
Sounds like an easy win for a first amendment lawsuit.
How can they take away the representation of the people in these districts? If these districts all hold emergency elections and re-elect the same 3, does the Tennessee House have to reseat them? How can they do this to elected officials?
This is WRONG! Why don't we expel the GOP in Congress abusing their power protecting Trump when they should be working for the people and the country?
made me smile. Good riddance to bad rubbish
adonsports This is not good. This was a test run.
Three dems being expelled in Tennessee for demonstrating for people killed in a mass murder with an assault riffle an AR-15 in Tennessee three of those were NINE YEAR olds. This is fascist bullshit. Where are the FEDS where is the DOJ to stop this racist crap! TenneseeThree
This insurrection needs to be investigated by a special committee
Tennessee legislature is removing 3 democratic representatives who peacefully protested for gun safety laws, after 3 children were killed with assault weapons. We need to contribute to their re-election. It is Amazing IRONY that (R’s) haven’t removed the corrupt George Santos!
Good news
The GOP knows that it is losing power and it will keep accelerating more with newer generations. They and the TNGOP will do everything in their power to suppress the will of the people and dismantle democracy one statehouse at a time. GOPClownShow GOPFascists
This is what Gerrymandering does to this Country. The Supreme Court allows Republicans to turn States into Republican Dictatorships. This is just a sample of what's to come if Americans don't wake up.
THE REPUBLICANS IN TENNESSEE ARE TRYING TO ESTABLISH LEGAL PRECEDENTS TO OVERTHROW ANY VOTE ADVERSE TO THEIR RETAINING THE POWER TO CONTINUOUSLY BE REELECTED.
NOTE: THE REPUBLICANS ARE DISENFRANCHISING (THROWING OUT) THE VOTES OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE IN TENNESSEE OF THEIR CHOSEN ELECTED OFFICIALS. THE REPUBLICANS ARE TRYING TO SILENCE ALL OPPOSITION. PLACING THEMSELVES ABOVE ALL ACCOUNTABILITY, THE CONSTITUTION, AND THE RULE OF LAW.
Hooboy, the next statewide election in Tennessee is going to be crazy.
GOP stands with killers, not with kids.
Any company headquartered in that State should immediately develop plans to relocate. Those that don’t should be boycotted.
electing republicans ends democracy.
Not sure how Tennessee Republicans can see this as a winning electoral strategy. Many those ‘kids’ protesting right outside the door will be voters in 2024!!
WE STAND WITH JUSTIN ✊🏾 TheTennesseeThree
Fascism spreading like wildfire in the Republican Party.
good ol KKK at work
'Old News'
This is the GOP. They willingly put weapons of war in the hands of people that would murder American children in their classrooms and attempt to silence those who oppose their bloodthirsty madness.
What a sad day
