Democratic Tennessee House member talks about his next step after being expelled
I STAND WITH THE STUDENTS OF NASHVILLE AND THE TENNESSEE THREE.
@kingphilwill In less than 5 years, this state will be seeing a political swing in their election numbers.
The kids who can’t vote yet, have learned that one party just wants them to sit down and shut up. That’s always a great way to motivate a new voter to becoming a live long voter. 😂✌
So brave. 🙄
Shame on Tennessee & Shame on The GOP !
@brailrice Right! Hippocrit fools!
There is no shame on them
Why the two black men are expelled but a white woman isn’t?
Maga For you
Take a wild guess..🤦🏽♀️
By one vote. So, yes, racism mattered, but nobody should get too comfortable.
Also the cities where they come from need to be up in arms about this as well this is effectively other politician and surrounding areas telling you who you can and can’t have represent you without you having any kind of say so
There needs to be a consequence to those other politician for this extreme act they just pulled today
Here is the recommended clip that say it :

This is sad, and it shows how Republicans really don’t give a damn about the safety of children in school. This man did no crime but stood with citizens of that state for damn safety in school. Wow, they really don’t care who kids die. I truly do hope Tennessee take huge steps against these demon that willing to let children die in order to line their pockets with money.
Shuddup
they haven’t cared after all these school shootings, this is how bold and arrogant they have become
They can let him go but Marjorie Green can stay talking about using guns on people
So now Kevin McCarthy can expel George Santos. His excuse it’s for the people to decide has been rendered void by Tennessee Republicans. Hypocrites with double standards.
A politician willing to lose his seat, for something he believes in, is what I look for..Way to go
@a gay actor named Michael Douglas Whatever
😂OUT
@a gay actor named Michael Douglas What?
More power to you . I wish the GOP were as ethical as you. Keep up the good fight
MLK’s Life was taken 55yrs & 2dys ago in TN but I see his Spirit alive & well in Bros. Jones & Pearson and all their supporters; I pray for their (and their Families) safety 🙏🏾
@Whisky James Don’t you think? It’s kinda like rain on your wedding day….ya know?
Praying too! For their safety!
Tennessee St. Rep. Pearson is a hero. Good for him. The Democrats need all the leaders they can get.
Reps. Justin Jones and Justin Pearson are both heroes… John Lewis anyone?!
It does not matter which side you’re on – this should terrify you. I am really disturbed by how emboldened these legislatures have become. Inch by inch by inch… 😠
@CNNOTHING BURGER LETS GO BRANDON!!! Which makes it even more inspiring! 😉
This guy is SO solid. I hope he prevails with legal action.
its on my channel
Oh, and Justin Jones is being a hero. His elegance under pressure is amazing.
Truth and Justice cannot be silenced. Tennessee and America should be ashamed about what happened today. God save us.
This man is beautiful. We all owe him a big thank you ❤ Shame on those who expelled him.
*THAT GUY WORKS AT MCDONALD’S.*
Grandstanding much!!!
POWER TO THE PEOPLE AND TY FOR REPRESENTING US!
Yup perfect representation just pure chaos no order
This person talks smarter than many reps in our country. Don’t silence intelligence and truth!!!
This man is brilliant. Very inspiring. Legislators across the country should take notes.
Great… this is great.. My hats off to you House member…. The students should not leave the halls and remain there until they bring him back again….
