Wow. The Republican bill to force a default would:
Eliminate Pell Grants for 80k students & reduce grant funding for millions of others
Cause 300k children to lose access to Head Start and child care
Cut funding for 2k+ Border Agents, 11k FBI personnel, and hundreds of police
BOOM: Alvin Bragg’s office told Jim Jordan to take a road trip to Ohio if he wants to talk about violent crime.
Today Republican Jim Jordan convened convened the House Judiciary Committee in NYC to address the crime there.
Bragg’s response when he learned of the move was perfect:
“In DA Bragg’s first year in office, New York City had one of the lowest murder rates of major cities in the United States (5.2) - nearly three times lower than Columbus, Ohio (15.4).” A spokesman said.
“If Chairman Jordan truly cared about public safety, he could take a short drive to Columbus, Dayton, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Akron, or Toledo in his home state, instead of using taxpayer dollars to travel hundreds of miles out of his way.”
Bragg’s office wasn’t wrong.
- Crime rates are higher in states with weaker gun laws.
-A 2022 study found that permitless carry laws increase firearm homicides by 13% and firearm violent crimes by 29%.
JIM JORDAN IS AN EMBARRASSMENT.
He should be EXPELLED for wasting tax payer money.
"The Fifth Circuit’s decision—just like the district court’s—second-guesses the agency’s medical experts. If this decision stands, no medication—from chemotherapy drugs...to blood pressure pills, to insulin—would be safe from attacks." - VP @KamalaHarris https://t.co/42SqZIXyn9
The voice of the people in Tennessee’s Distrcit 86, the voice that was unjustly removed, has been reinstated. What they believed to be a crucifixion, initiated a resurrection of a movement to create a democracy that works for the people!
The TN GOP know how weak they are now thanks to people standing up. Maybe they should have thought about upholding democratic principles and respecting the will of voters before acting so recklessly. #TNPolitics#DemocracyMatters#Change4TN
The MAGA Republican-controlled US House has gotten close to ZERO done in its first 100 days, and as an added bonus is highly unpopular. Who could ever have predicted this? LOL https://t.co/74Gr9lFLxY h/t @JesseFFerguson
All Rep. Jones Bills he filed after his rightful seat was restored are about sensible gun legislation in Tennessee. We would not have expected anything else. Jones and the rest of the Democratic Caucus know what the people want. A hint: Its not banning drag shows. Back to work
"This would be infuriating if we didn't already know how corrupt the TN GOP is. Prioritizing special interests over constituents. We must hold officials accountable and demand a gov't that works for us, not wealthy donors. #TheTennesseeThree#Corruption#CleanUpOurPolitics
How long until Speaker Sexton calls Rep. Jones out of order. He and the rest of the Democrats are not going to put up with the GOP and their power grabbing antics. The dictatorial way Sexton and the GOP does business is now known around the world. The bully has been exposed for the coward he is. And like all bullies. They get theirs in the end. @NewBlueTenn@newbluehamilton@NewBlueUSA
It is great seeing Rep Jones walk back into the House after being expelled by the racists Speaker Sexton and talked down to by Rep. Andrew Farmer. We will never forget what they did to the Tennessee 3 and the memory of those who died in Nashville. It will not be business as usual
