This nation was built on peaceful protest. No elected official should lose their job simply for raising their voice – especially when they’re doing it on behalf of our children.
What happened in Tennessee is the latest example of a broader erosion of civility and democratic norms. Silencing those who disagree with us is a sign of weakness, not strength, and it won’t lead to progress.

Replying to @BarackObama
Democrats who just arrested a former President and leading candidate of the opposition party now say “democracy” is threatened because the Tennessee GOP legislature voted to expel 2 Democrats leading an occupation of the state Capitol and a disruption of official proceedings

Replying to @BarackObama
So... You support insurrection now, is that it?

Replying to @BarackObama
By Democrat standards this was an "insurrection".

"Every single person who was involved in the Insurrection must be held accountable". Rep Gloria Johnson

I was shocked at how bad a president he really was until Joe said "hold my beer".

In what ways was the protest on 3/30 an "insurrection"?

They weren't trying to overturn an election, they didn't threaten to kill the VP, they didn't break any windows, they didn't even smear shite on the walls - all unlike the January 6th insurrectionists.

Which part? The part where the legislative members shouted through a bullhorn on the floor of the legislature? Agreed.

The two Justins fight for JUSTICE in Tennessee.

Just because Republicans are a majority in the Tennessee house, doesn't mean that bullying and outright tyranny aren't what they are--wicked.

They were interrupting the legislative activities of the Tennessee legislature. We were told this was sacrosanct.

I know there are people on this board who voted for that worthless sack of shite out of white guilt or some other "I have a black friend" bullshite. Hope you're happy. He set this country on an irreversible course towards communism.

The irony is so thick, it could be cut with a rusty butter knife.
