The RACIST Republican Party just shot itself in the foot. Better yet, they just committed Harakiri today in Nashville. Are you kidding? By punishing these Democratic lawmakers, Justin Jones, Gloria Johnson, and Justin Pearson, simply for standing with their constituents after a tragedy, where they are asking for sensible gun laws. I mean, watching all those young people protesting in the capitol made me feel so hopeful. The gross GOP ultimately expelled the two black men and not the white women. Where is the revolution? When will enough be enough?
It reminded me of when activism first tickled my fancy during the Moratorium to End the War in Vietnam, and everyone protested back then. I was in 7th grade and blocked the students from entering Englewood Cliffs Middle School. It felt as though we were really exercising our voices. Girl, I’ve been ‘won’t be silent” for eons.
I am feeling somewhat hopeful and haven’t for a long time. There's so much to do between now and the November 2024 election. So many down-ballot races. This will…rather better activate the youth culture as it did in the 60s and 70s. I couldn't be more grateful to see those young faces. We can have an opportunity to save American democracy. That is not said lightly. It’s emotional for me. I refuse to give this country up to a bunch of white paunchy, gross Republicans. Trust me; it’s the last thing that's gonna happen as long as I'm breathing. Please join me. There’s lots to do, and the fun begins now!
PS…Starting with a hearty Fuck You, Meatball Ron.
Peace…
Abe - Won’t Be Silent
Amen!!!!
The extremist Republicans, ( they all are now. or terrified not to be ? ) , go from focal point to focal point , in their insane culture & economic war on America.
Tennessee is now one .Once home to pro Civil Rights , moderate Republicans, who's tradition was in the areas of the state , that was pro Union & Lincoln , is now fully aligned Ex Dixiecrat , Evangelical Fundamentalist , Koch
Combine .
Don't think this expulsion was just symbolic, or an anomalie .
This is the future , for their brazen , desperate agenda.
In the states where they Gerrymandered themselves into supermajority status, they will do this .
These maniacs , under the money control , of greedy , ignorant billionaires , pedantic Think Tanks , with cruel ideas , FOX & TV Preachers, know time is running out for them.
They need totalitarianism, before brainwashed Boomers, FOX Big Brother Learners , organized politicized religion fades away .
They will hinder , suppress , expel.
Dictatorships have more finesse than they do .
These crazies are open & bold .
Its before our eyes !
This was ALWAYS in America and had been repressed & fought off , as mainstem society understood that ' freedom ' meant change.
Originally ' Conservatives ' trained in the classical traditions , might of opposed societal change, but had to accept it , then follow the laws
To attempt total reversal of decades of personal freedoms , rights, and reforms , meant disunity of a nation , strife, instability, radicalism, they feared the most.
Not now : They are at war.
Since the maniacal Newt Gingrich, they want total destruction.
Trump was the open tipping point of no return.
Today its Tennessee, tomorrow YOUR state , county , city.
Be INVOLVED: Listen , learn , observe, speak, organize, donate, run yourself, but above all VOTE in ALL elections.
Not just President!
This year 2023 is IMPORTANT.
Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, have Gubernatorial elections.
School Boards, Mayors , Councils, County Officials.
Throw out the doom of modern extremist Republicans, or they will throw out you !
