JUST IN: Justin Jones has been voted BACK to the Tennessee State House by the Metro Nashville Council!

The Council was responsible for choosing who would fill the seat until the special election, and they voted to select Jones.

Right after the vote, Jones embraced the council members.

Congratulations Rep. Justin Jones! 💙

Tennessee sent a racist message to the rest of the country.

❤️ if you stand with the two Justins!

If it’s not the identity of the shooter, they’ll blame the doors, if it’s not the doors, they’ll blame the pot, if it’s not the pot, they’ll blame the porn, if it’s not the porn, they’ll blame it on ‘too few good guys with guns’, if there were lots of ‘good guys with guns’, they’ll say there was ‘nothing anyone could have done.’
And then they’ll do nothing.
But they will never, ever, not ever blame the guns.
And it IS the guns.
It’s always the guns.

@JeffGantt10 @smartasset That is true. It’s a gamble either way. I waited until I was 72 and now 80, it was better for me to wait. We each have to decide what is best for our situation.

@CalltoActivism His speech was so inspiring! Another Obama on the horizon?

[Lotus Moon @lotusmoon39]

So proud of the #Tennessee3 We all need to stand up for our children who are being killed by the lack of gun restrictions

@KathMSchmidt Count your blessings. I’m an 80 year old Missouri girl who has been pumping mine most of my life. It’s really not that hard.

I don’t care if trump wants to talk before or after he’s arraigned.
I don’t care if he turns the whole damn scene into a circus of his own making.
I don’t care if the cult watches and sends him every last dime they have left.
He’s been indicted.
Today he’ll be arraigned.
And it is the beginning of him finally being held accountable for his actions. And no matter how he tries to spin this, being charged with a crime is not in fact good for him.
At all.
That’s all I care about.

When a transgender person murders innocent people that should never paint the entire transgender community as murderous.

When a MAGA supporter murders innocent people that should never paint the entire MAGA community as murderous.

When a Christian person murders innocent people that should never paint the entire Christian community as murderous.

When a black person murders innocent people that should never paint the entire black community as murderous.

None of this is hard to understand.

Hateful people will always use a single incident to spread Hate against the groups they dislike.

So not proud of my state government.

[Jo @JoJoFromJerz]

Republicans want to control what clothes you wear, what books you read, what history you learn, what medication you can take, what words you can say, what gender you are, who you can love or marry, and what you can or cannot do with your own body but when it comes to controlling gun violence… they say there’s “nothing they can do about it”???

Are you fucking kidding me?

[Lotus Moon @lotusmoon39]

I will never calm down over the unconscionable with guns in our nation.

Standing up for what we really need. Go Eric!

BOOM: Rep. Eric Swalwell BLASTS Jim Jordan during a Judiciary subcommittee hearing and accuses him of working exclusively for Donald Trump and illegally meddling with his criminal trial.

Tension filled the room as the California Democrat slammed the subcommittee for holding a hearing “to help the ex-president," instead of tackling gun violence and mass shootings.

Swalwell also accused Jordan of running a "Committee to Obstruct Justice.”

I love when Rep. Swalwell stands up to Republicans and justice. 💙
