The GOP-controlled Tennessee House has expelled Rep. Justin Jones because he protested with his constituents the killing of the innocents #CovenantSchool . This is what GOP authoritarianism looks like. Its retributive and spiteful. Un-elect these bastards before we lose what's left of Democracy.

Yesterday on the 11th Hour you said you’re still a Republican. Why?

This is your party, Michael. You can only distance yourself so far while still being a member. If you want to be taken seriously, you know what you need to do.

Tennessee GOP embarrassed itself. More importantly, it highlighted the issue of gun reform.

We have to make the TN GOP suffer publicly & reputationally so that they learn that no good comes out of these extreme actions.
We need to expose each and every members awful behavior to the national level so they are so embarrassed & exposed that they wish they never made a public spectacle.

Voting Republicans out is becoming nearly impossible due to gerrymandering, restrictive voting laws and and a takeover of the state courts. The only people that can save us are Republicans. They have to reject their authoritarian wing in the primaries so we the people can live in a democracy.

Seems like we are at a crossroads.....the true GOP has been revealed. Somehow we have to counteract the years of gerrymandering and voter suppression.

You created this monster, as Chairman of GOPAC and the Chairman of the Republican National Committee.

Sir, do you really think that TN is just going to suddenly stop voting for people like this? You're GOP, you tell me. The onus isn't on the oppressed, it's on the oppressor. And I hear what you're saying but you're still in the party of the oppressor.

Imagine if the kids who were murdered were black. These Reps would be accused of only protesting because the kids were black. They are protesting #GunViolence This is sickening! So sick & fucked up in every way possible. #Tennessee #GunReformNow #TennesseThree

Mr. Steele, you may want to save the GOP from itself, but it's a lost cause. Walk away and start fighting for us without one hand tied behind your back.

Mr. Steele, I endorse your sentiment, but you belong (still!) to that very same party. It's hard to take you seriously when you cannot separate yourself from the party of racist White fascists. You're doing no good there, and shaming yourself.

As disgusting as the TN GOP's expulsions are, what's even more problematic is that there's a constituency for it in the American marketplace of ideas. Our problem is deep.

Michael Steele said on MSNBC today that he is a Republican.
Guess he wants it both ways. He is cool with fascism.
Lost all respect for the guy.👎

This is the worst response from a Tenn. Republican representative (who actually talked to the kids) -- "what gun would you prefer to be shot with?".
What is wrong with them??

Realistically… is it possible for dems to win more seats in TN? What are the possible solutions here?

I'm not from Tennessee. However, consider those young protesters who are or soon will be voting age. They will show up at the polls! It happened in Wisconsin. It will be critical to energize Gen-Z, in red states, especially. It's already happening. It's not the entire solution, but important.

Many here in #Tennessee are celebrating that the #TN3 are getting kicked out. Not holding my breath that anything will change here... anytime soon. Sad day for a lot of reasons.
