Also, you can’t be expelled for the same offense twice.  Re-elect Pearson and Jones and their first act could be to protest protset on the house floor. Again.

Somewhat ironically, I think only the white woman they did not expel was likely to have a Republican appointed to their seat. So this expulsion did nothing to the power balance, and only shined a light on how shitty these Republicans are.

Not only that, but that appointment is only until a special election, so the voters themselves can re-elect Pearson and Jones and there ain’t shit the Republicans can do about it.

They may not even be out of the legislature for long, as the cities they represent can appoint whoever they choose to fill those seats. Pearson and Jones should both be eligible for that. I can’t think of a better way to tell these racist fucks to eat shit than to put Pearson and Jones back in the seats they earned. 

All they have achieved is to turn this two impressive young men into national superstars who will be back in office in no time. If the Tennessee GOP thought they were being trolled by two Gen Z Reps, wait until they find out what it’s like to be trolled by two unemployed gen Z.

“making this too costly to happen again is likely the only thing that will move the needle here.”

LOL follow the money, who paid her :-)

Oh please yes let's get a trans dude with a self-deprecating sense of humor to say the quiet part loud about guns as penis substitutes!

Wow wait until they find out that Bud Light’s actual goal is to make as much money as possible by selling their beer to as many people as possible and that they’re willing to invest in marketing campaigns that target people other than dudes that wear Oakleys on the back of their head in order to accomplish that goal.

We need a trans person to snag a sponsorship deal with a gun manufacturer. That’ll get all the wingnuts to get rid of their guns.

Plus I don’t know about in the early going, but it seems to me most of the more recent relationships are the result of women reaching out to him.  Kardashian in particular said she just wanted to hook up with the guy.  

Pete isn’t chasing clout, he’s buried under an avalanche of it emanating from the women he’s dated.

Campaign finance fraud is a nice appetizer. I’m waiting for the main course of treasonous insurrection with official secrets act violations for dessert.

Same. They better have an airtight slam dunk of a case against him because it’s going to be bad enough as it is with all the people who will be ready to storm the capitol. Again. I have so much Trump fatigue at this point that I don’t believe for a second he will face any real consequences.

Fuck all that shit, perp walk 100%.  Shame this man.  

No one who would vote for this asshole will care about these allegations and no amount of evidence will change their minds. The GQP only cares about “owning the libs” and making life as immeasurably cruel as possible to everyone who isn’t a straight white man.

That looks like spray paint or tinted gel. My little nephews sometimes come back from the hairdresser’s with a bit of that in their baby quiffs and they love it. It’ll wash off, unlike that fucking name, which makes me hate Grimes so hard. Seriously, fuck her.

I swear, Republicans have the filthiest minds. The Dolly Parton song reminded me of - I think it was an afterschool special sometime way back in the 70s - Free to be You and Me or something like that. I don’t recall any controversy about that? but I was a kid so would not have paid attention that.

I’m not sure about the math and can’t provide references, but there is a point to this:

Beyond the obvious harm these bills cause to trans kids, these idiots are vilifying care that was developed because children of all gender identities may need it. Cis gender kids can need hormone blockers, hormone treatment and other gender-related care — who do these nitwits think these medications were originally…
