  2. These two clowns needed to go. This had nothing to do with race, this has everything to do with professional conduct. Tennessee is better without them in office.

  3. The modern GOP is the party of white nationalism. People who deny this (like some of the trolls in this comments section) are lying or ignorant โ€ฆor both. The ONLY way to keep our democracy and stop this red hate from spreading is to VOTE IT OUT.
    If you are eligible, and you vote, youโ€™re awesome! As for the rest of you, thereโ€™s no point in condemning Republican greed, bigotry, fascism and cruelty unless youโ€™re voting and/or actively encouraging others to vote. Democracy is not a spectator sport; use it or lose it.

  4. Wannabee Black Panthers tried to start a violent Riot, arrest them and charge them with treason.

  5. THIS is the ONLY action the Tennessee legislature took after the Nashville mass shooting. Let that sink in.

  6. All I have to say is #PearsonForPresident !!! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿพ

  7. This is the speech he should have spoken in front of the house.

  8. These are Imposters is all I have to say about that black people donโ€™t support this clowns made by the Demoncrats

  9. And, that is how you use every single second of an interview to get out your message. Not one second was wasted. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

  10. This is their attempt to say "Sit down son and remember the manners your Momma

    TRIED to teach you!"

  11. This guys district is controlled by Gang's.
    What a fkn joke. He can't get the gun's out of the hands of gang bangers…so he wants to march for taking whitey's gun rights away.

  12. And how about the Biden family bank records be looked at closely ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ yes it's happening ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚

  13. So let me get this straight.
    A Democrat rioter is a hero.
    A Republican rioter is an insurrectionist.
    OK…I think Ive got it.

  14. Let's get this straight. Two black guys are raising a ruckus, because white people refuse to take away their constitutional rights.

  15. And of course these racists are yelling racism because they don't think they should be punished due to their skin color even though they were disrupting government function just like January 6th. The reason the female lawmaker was not expelled is because she was just standing there and blasting her opinions on megaphones disrupting government business. Not because of the color of her skin as these racists are claiming since that what racists do. They try to create racial issues where they do not exist to create division. The democratic party who founded slavery and the KKK in this country are a perfect example of this. Why do you think they put Biden, with over 40 years of recorded racist remarks recorded, in office?

  16. These people should be rounded up and prosecuted just like the J6 people.

  17. Fake news media was ok with this insurrection…imgine that ๐Ÿ™„

  18. Civil disobedience has been the foundation of this country. No progress would ever be made here if the rules and laws were always followed. It was against the law to view black and LGBTQ people as full citizens. We FOUGHT for those rights, WITH civil disobedience. People claiming that this goes against progress are part of the United States of Amnesia, you all forget half the rights that are available were paid for by peopleโ€™s protests and civil unrest. This is why they want to block out history and ban books, to keep you all uneducated and hope that you will forget who has the actual power: the people, and yes those of us who are on the margins of society.

  19. Matt Gaetz goes to the House floor with a megaphone and leads a balcony in threatsโ€ฆ. I wonder how forgiving these hypocrites would be

  20. Honest question: What happened to all people who donated money for the blm movement

  21. LIARS.
    ALWAYS PULLING THE RACE CARD.

  22. He is incredible โ™ฅ

  23. Hay man got a old coit45 lying around I know you do

  24. Kiss my ass you insurrectionist

  25. So good to see a strong man!

  26. Current Republican party is extreme MAGA Trump party

    does not represent American people.

    They are truly destroying our great nation.

  27. GET RID OF A CORRUPT INCOMPETENT HATRED FILLED COMMUNIST DEMONRAT (ALLLLLLLL DEMONRATS ARE CORRUPT!!!!!!) THEN HE SHE SCREAMS LOUD ENOUGH……..HIRE THEM BACK. THERE IS NO WORSE WAY TO RUN A COUNTRY THAN REWARDING CORRUPT INCOMPETENCE AND NO ACCOUNTABILITY FOR BLATANT DEMONRAT TREASON.

  28. Weird political politicians have rules in the house. Maybe some believe they're above rules and laws

  29. This should show us that trying to play the game of law and order isnt a solution. Anarchism is showing its face day by day.

  30. JUSTIN PIERSON JUSTIN JONES TN SUPPORT TN KIDS TERRIFIED OF AR15 MICS SHUT OFF!!!!!

  31. Both of these young representative are a light to follow. That fight for our kids lives. Mtg and all republicans fight to protect ar 15 but not our kids.

  32. In an 2010 interview, actor Johnny Depp talks about defending the TN 3 … get it yet Morons. A recycled story.

  33. Removal of any radical commiecrap is a good start.
