The Republicans 100% did this strategically because they know their dumbass voters will think it’s the democrats fault in 2027 even though the bill was signed in 2025 by Trump. They’re gonna use this as ammunition to win in 2028. It’s important to remember this was THEIR bill and THEY wanted it passed. All the cuts that are about to happen are the REPUBLICANS fault. Not the democrats and especially not the democrats who just won and won’t even be in office until the bill already takes effect. DO NOT FALL FOR THE SMEAR CAMPAIGN!
I believe Tennessee is worth fighting for. I have always believed that. And I will never stop believing it. This was one battle for the future of our state. It was not the end of the fight.
We have more work to do. More communities to organize. More voices to lift up. More people to bring into this movement.
And to every volunteer, every supporter, every person who donated, knocked a door, made a phone call, hosted a gathering, or simply told a friend why this campaign mattered: thank you.
Hats off to Justin J Pearson, who turned a gerrymandered Republican +21 district into a +1 district by running on left wing populism and standing unequivocally with trans people. And a screw you to every national centrist Dem that sat on the sidelines and wrote off the south.
For AI fucking data centers. Destroying the planet so people can ask a chatbot the fucking weather. Or to write a fucking email. Or to steal our children's future. Or so an AI agent can hack your bank account.
What a horrific disgrace to our planet.
