What Tennessee Can Tell Us About Our Extreme Politics
What Tennessee Can Tell Us About Our Extreme Politics
After the Tennessee legislature expelled state representatives Justin Jones and Justin Pearson for protesting inaction on gun violence last year, more people became aware of how the state’s Republican supermajority operates. However, there are Republicans and Democrats who say the current way of doing business is making it hard to get any…

It was a "WHITELASH", lmao.
Did he start crying again?

The Democrats take the official position that black people should be segregated into their own districts and all all Democrat attempts to gerrymander involve this concept.
Hasn't worked out well for black people
The gop always wants their minority rule and poor suburbs lol, screw them.

Tennessee is one example. California is another example. This is American politics.
The two clowns were expelled for breaking the rules, period!
Van Jones, former (still?) communist,and 911 truther, and clown in general!
The United States has become a banana republic. It seems that under the Biden administration this country is now politically unstable and run by a dictator and his cronies set on eliminating their strongest opponent (Donald Trump), who is running for the office of the President.
Biden and the Democrats are making it perfectly clear that they and his administration are corrupt leaders.
With the backing of a weaponized DOJ and left wing media Biden and the Democrats egomaniacal quest for prolonged power are in fact yielding a banana republic. Further, this is for the purpose of forcing their far left agendas in their long term goal for an autocratic government by an oligarchy on We the People.
Time to clean up a corrupt government.
🇺🇸Vote Trump 24🇺🇸
Why hasn't anyone challenged Tennessee's gerrymandered districts in court? That has happened in Alabama and Virginia, and North Carolina. It has happened in heavily gerrymandered New York state, that was heavily favoring Democrats.
Though not a democrat, if these demos wish to be heard, why dont they go to the local newspapers, and completely explain their views?
It's all about power by any means necessary.
Great report. Lifelong Memphian here and it is so so hard to be optimistic about Tennessee at this point. The Republican majority in this state does not represent us.
Stop lying! Democrats gerrymander too!
Tell the whole truth! They had a bullhorn on the State House floor!
"Fix" according to Van Jones.
Restrict individual rights.
Boom! That's the answer. Always the answer. The only answer.
Free Free Women Minds and Bodies Must be Free for Slavery Butchery by Islamic Muslim Arab Palestinian Religious Persecutors persecution. Thirty-seven percent of Arab women are reported to have experienced some form of violence in their lifetime, though sources indicate that the true percentage is actually higher. Two practices that fall under the broad and ugly umbrella of gender-based violence and control are female genital mutilation (FGM) and child and forced marriage (CFM), which together affect tens of millions of Women 1:27
Van Jones Despicable Woke Marxist fake news activist!!
Does anything exist besides Nashville because last time I checked Memphis (city proper) and two West Tennessee counties were blue too. The state has penalized all of them for being blue. Jackson, TN is not considered a small town, it has its own metropolitan area with just over 100,000 people.
Libraries are dumb but we know that already tell us something new Van, try something from your own thoughts not the police states
The fact that the two black legislators were ejected but the white legislator wasn't tells you ALL you need to know about the motivations behind Tennessee gerrymandering. It isn't a coincidence that it went into overdrive after Obama was elected.
It's all about race and keeping black voices out of TN politics.
Van Jones adds to right wing conspiracies
Both sides are extremists and don't represent most Americans. Politicians are the filth of earth.
Blaks don't even like their own kind in Tennessee. Look at what happened to Tyre Nicols?
Bye Bye Biden
BIDEN HAS TO GO!!!
It tells us how racist, hypocritical and full of TDS … the fake news watchers that vote democrat are.
My family left California and moved to Tennessee we are much happier here.
Things are not going to change here in Tennessee until we stop voting in those hating, fear-mongering, Trump-loving authoritarians.
Instead of enhancing gun laws, they passed "constitutional carry" so anyone can carry a gun whether they know how to use it or not. Instead of supporting public education, the governor wants to bring in a conservative, Christian college from Michigan to run the education system. And I can't begin to tell you some of the laws the state legislature has tried to pass or successfully passed that takes local control out of local hands.
If you're looking for Tennessee to become an example of fair practices and civil debate, you have a long, hard road ahead of you.
Happy trans appreciation day. Lord I know you killed your kid for us, but if you don’t even know how to make a woman why in the hell would i worship you.
All of these problems revolve around first bi-racial president and white Americans fears, which are many. The fear is well founded in a guilty conscience.
