Three Democrats Facing Expulsion From Tennessee Legislature for Aiding the 'Transurrection'

By streiff

Monday, three Tennessee bolsheviks were stripped of their committee assignments and locked out of the Tennessee Capitol because of their leading role in the “Transurrection” that took over the capitol building last Wednesday (WATCH: Left-Wing Protesters Storm TN Capitol, Insurrection Reaches the Legislative Chamber).

State Representatives Gloria Johnson and Justin Jones were notified by the Clerk of the Tennessee House of Representatives that they had been stripped of all committee assignments. A third representative, Justin Pearson (Justin as a first name seems to be a thing amount Tennessee Democrats), had no committee assignments. Their ability to enter the legislative facilities was restricted in a separate action.

Agreed -- good.

Now let's see if the TN Republicans have the intestinal fortitude to see this all the way through to the proper conclusion...

My prediction: they won't.
Let it burn.

Breitbart News

Protesters stormed the Tennessee state capitol in Nashville on Thursday ahead of a vote to expel three Democrat lawmakers accused of leading a gun control protest on the House floor last week, disrupting the session.

In video captured by Odessa Kelly, Tennessee Highway Patrol officers can be seen holding the line against an angry crowd, blocking the entrance to a stairway.

Well, if it is to be, it is to be. The Left has been pushing for this since the '60s.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Vote to Expel 2nd Democrat TN House Member Fails

The Tennessee House of Representatives voted to expel state Rep. Gloria Johnson (D) Thursday and the vote for expulsion failed to pass.

The Tennessee House of Representatives voted to expel state Rep. Gloria Johnson (D) Thursday and the vote for expulsion failed to pass.

The Tennessean reported that the effort to remove Johnson failed by one vote.

The vote was 65-30 after seven Republican House members voted against removing her.

The seven Republicans were Rep. Jody Barrett (R-Dickson), Rep. Charlie Baum (R-Murfreesboro), Rep. Rush Bricken (R-Tullahoma), Rep. Bryan Richey (R-Maryville), Rep. Lowell Russell (R-Vonore), Rep. Mike Sparks (R-Smyrna) and Rep. Sam Whitson (R-Franklin).

The vote on Johnson came on the same day that the Tennessee House voted to expel Rep. Justin Jones (D) from office.

Breitbart News noted CNN’s report that Jones was removed by a vote of 75-25.

Tennessee House Speaker Cameron Sexton noted that Jones, Johnson, and Rep. Justin Pearson (D) were facing possible expulsion for allegedly “breaking several rules of decorum and procedure on the House floor” during gun control protests last week. The Tennessean reported that Johnson, Jones, and Pearson allegedly used “a bullhorn” as they “led protestors in the galleries in several chants calling for gun reform.”

Watching the video that was released--over Democratic objections--it appeared Johnson played a far less active role in the takeover/occupation than did Jones and Pearson.

These Democrats kicked out in Tennessee will be replaced by interim reps appointed by their respective county commissioners until a special election can be scheduled

 Expelled Tennessee lawmaker Justin Jones: I was voted out for being ‘an uppity negro’
by Cheyanne M. Daniels - 04/07/23 9:23 AM ET

Tennessee state Rep. Justin Jones (D-Nashville) said his race played a role in his expulsion from the state House on Thursday.

“I basically had a member call me an uppity Negro,” Jones, who is Black, told MSNBC’s Joy Reid after the 72-25 vote that expelled him.

“It’s not about me, but it’s about the 78,000 people I represent,” he added, noting his constituents would be disenfranchised because of his expulsion.
