What is happening in our country?!

Our family’s statement on something that happened to us this weekend. Love each other.

TN Speaker equates peaceful student rally w/Jan 6 insurrection but (1) no officers injured in TN, 150 wounded in DC; (2) no effort in TN to coerce Speaker to abdicate power and turn state over to usurper; (3) no 5-hour disruption of business to block transfer of power. Nice try!

Tennessee Republicans refuse to expel a Republican representative who admitted to sexually abusing minors but are trying to expel Democratic representatives who spoke out against gun violence.

[The Tennessee Holler @TheTNHoller]

We’re hearing the motion to expel @brotherjones_ @Justinjpearson @VoteGloriaJ for speaking up after being silenced will happen today, and that Speaker @CSexton25 has the votes. Call your reps.

Fascism reigns in Tennessee.

[Chris O’Brien @THEChrisOB]

Enormous crowd and scene here at the Capitol.

Stretches all the way to the Legislative Plaza.

@CSexton25 You’re in way over your head @CSexton25 and you will not get away with this. The world is now watching you.

[Rep. Justin Jones @brotherjones_]

Tonight as Tennessee House Republicans push forward to schedule vote on our expulsion, Speaker Sexton orders the gallery cleared as crowd chants “fascists.”

Media forced out at as well.

Then, Rep. Lafferty (R-Knox) pushes me and grabs my phone.

This is a sad day for Tennessee.

How can people be so filled with hate? Eradicate people?! They aren’t bothering you!!!

[Associate Deans @ass_deans]

Not knowing what classes you are teaching is no excuse for not having already ordered your books for the fall semester. Please attend to this asap!

Love and well-wishing to President Jimmy Carter, who is in hospice. Imagine if the public face of Christianity looked more like this - humility, service, love - and less like nasty, snarling @GOP bigots banning books and attacking #trans kids and loving #LGBTQ+ couples.

As you become more authentic some people will feel uncomfortable and that’s ok because your role in life isn’t to be liked, it’s to like yourself.

Let's normalize saying no without explanation, guilt, or worry.

Starting today, millions of Americans now have their insulin costs capped at $35 a month.

Every Democrat voted for it. Every Republican voted against it.

@B52Malmet Historian, Jon Meacham said today. “One of the marks of the end of a republic is the normalization of political violence.’

FINAL DAMN SCORE

Born in a cabin in Kentucky coal country, Loretta Lynn was revered not just a country music star, but as a symbol of rural resilience. "The more you hurt, the better the song is," she said. "You put your whole heart into a song when you’re hurting." https://t.co/vn16udvE29

Your teachers are striking.
Your nurses are striking.
Your railway workers are about to strike.

“Nobody wants to work anymore” is deliberately obtuse. What nobody wants anymore is to work in understaffed, overburdened, underpaid positions so 2 dozen ppl can get rich.

The people that said we should be giving money to Americans and not Ukraine are now upset we're giving money to Americans. 🤷‍♀️ #studentloanforgiveness
