Republican leaders of Tennessee's House of Representatives stripped Democrat Rep. Gloria Johnson of her committee assignments

They’re retaliating for her peaceful participation in last week’s demonstration for gun reform which took place after the massacre at The Covenant School

Fascism.

Republicans strip Rep. Gloria Johnson of committee assignments for her role in peaceful gun reform demonstration

The protesters came to the Capitol after a gunman killed six people, including three 9-year-olds, at The Covenant School in Nashville on March 27.

We can retaliate by going after their corporate sponsors--um--er donors--corporations hate bad PR and they really hate accountability. #WeAreTheGuardrails

@flexghost Hear me out ... Tennessee allows guns to be carried inside the state Capitol, but not protest signs. What would the Republican legislators do if the protestors laid down their signs and walked inside armed?

Tennessee lawmakers to allow guns but prohibit 'hand-carried signs' in new building

The policy, which Lt. Gov. Randy McNally, R-Oak Ridge, and House Speaker Beth Harwell, R-Nashville, approved Dec. 14, expressly prohibits “hand-carried signs and signs on hand sticks” because they “represent a serious safety hazard.”

After bragging about sex at Party Fowl, former chief of staff's tab may have been paid by Glen Casada donors

When House Speaker Glen Casada’s former chief of staff boasted to his boss in 2016 about having sex with a woman at Party Fowl, the tab at the Nashville restaurant may have been paid for by campaign donors.
