We should NEVER take our democracy for granted. What happened yesterday in TN should alarm every person in the US. If you are truly a patriot, stand up for our democratic principles. 

Three Democrats stood up for students. Two black Reps were expelled, white Rep was not.

Never forget.

Tennessee's House of Representatives expels two of three Democratic representatives

The Tennessee House of Representatives’ Democratic representatives were caught in the line of fire for bringing anti-gun protest to the House floor following the Nashville Covenant school shooting. Stripped of their status by the Republican supermajority, Rep. Justin Jones (D-Nashville) and Rep. Justin Pearson (D-Memphis)—colloquially known as “The Justins”— quickly became the talk of Tennessee…

So in the alternate Fox News universe a peaceful protest against gun violence was a violent protest? 

Has Fox News learned nothing from the Dominion lawsuit?

Clearly they still believe that lying to feed the anger of their audience is the way to be a news network.

Fox News host Cheryl Casone launched into a brief monologue on Saturday to suggest the Biden administration was “glorifying” violence by inviting the Tennessee Three to the White House. “Shame on those politicians, by the way, all three of them,” she said of the three lawmakers who protested in favor of gun-control measures on the House floor after a deadly mass shooting. Biden’s “going to host them at the White House?!? Are you kidding me?!?” she said. “Politics should not be about violence, full stop, no matter what side of the aisle you’re on,” Casone said. The call for gun reform that caused Black representatives Justin Pearson and Justin Jones to be voted out of the House was completely non-violent. But Casone expressed outrage that the White House, according to her, was glorifying “the anger and the ridiculousness” of the lawmakers. “It makes me very, very sad,” she said. Meanwhile, Casone made no mention of other recent Tennessee legislators who have been accused of sexual harassment or violating campaign finance laws.
