Tennessee Republicans are now on the ropes
The Tennessee Republican state legislature pulled an all time stupid move when it tried to distract everyone from its refusal to act on gun reform by pulling a racist stunt against Democratic legislators Justin Jones and Justin Pearson.
Now that Jones has been reinstated, with Pearson soon to follow, the “Tennessee Three” are going on the offensive:
NEW: Rep. Gloria Johnson just told me that she WILL join Rep. Justin Jones & demand a resignation from the Republican Speaker of the Tennessee State House. This is what true leadership looks like. Republicans should be terrified. The Tennessee Three are only getting started.

Is the Republican Speaker of the Tennessee House going to resign simply because it’s being demanded? Of course not. But the point is that he and his Republican colleagues are now being forced to play defense, after having spent years quietly getting away with whatever they wanted before they stupidly put themselves on blast.
