These states are so hungry to disenfranchise Black people for their political power they are willing to break their own laws to do so.

“THE DISTRICTS MAY NOT BE CHANGED BETWEEN APPORTIONMENTS.” So not only is this @GovBillLee @MarshaBlackburn @TNGOP 9-0 (white) power grab stripping Memphis of representation racist & immoral — it is also clearly illegal by Tennessee law. Receipts: law.justia.com/codes/tennesse…

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents surrounded the WRONG HOUSE for NINE HOURS… got a warrant… and still arrested the wrong person.
They were looking for Gerson Manuel Portillo-Escobar, a human trafficking suspect who lived at 919 Hamilton Crossings Station, Antioch, Tennessee.
Instead, they targeted someone at 939… a completely different home… and arrested Miguel Antonio Blanco, who has no criminal record.
Agents saw Miguel go inside his own house and decided he was their suspect… Even though they had the correct name, address, and a photo of the actual person, who lived a few houses away.
Miguel told them repeatedly they had the wrong person.
They ignored him.
For nine hours, they called out someone else’s name and tried to get inside.
Then, they got a warrant… forced entry… and took a man who wasn’t on that warrant.
This is a Fourth Amendment violation… you can’t have probable cause if you have the wrong person and the wrong house.
It also raises due process concerns under the Fifth Amendment… because the government doesn’t get to ignore facts and detain someone anyway.
They had the right information… They just didn’t use it.

@timburchett Don’t any longer care about letting everyone know you’re a racist, huh? Not a surprise, as you suck up to Grandma Gone Wild Mashburn in hopes of getting her seat.

@ArtCandee Saw that coming when she put Dokoupil at the evening news desk. He was barely good enough for the morning spot!

🇺🇸🚨BREAKING: MAGA influencer Craig Long — “MAGA to the core,” 560K TikTok followers, photographed with Trump — was just arrested in a human trafficking sting.
He’s married.
He frequently posted videos praising the sheriff who just arrested him.
Sheriff Judd’s response at the press conference:
“Well, there you go. You got arrested in a human trafficking sting. Influence that for a while.”
Never stop connecting the dots.

@GovBillLee Great news! So what areas will pick up the Black seats? So that means the Dems should pick up 10 seats, right? 35% (% Black pop) of 99 =34 and we already have 24…so 10 more is great news!!!

@HackingButLegal @ls_laurie Hey @timburchett where’s your “hang him” outrage vanity video? Save those for Dems only?

The child [now 14] "was in the third grade when he started getting abused by this man" according to his mother.
For that, the child rapist only got 60 days. Governor's office intervened directly! Doesn't have to register as a sex offender. Can become a lawyer again in 5 years.

Ken Paxton gave a plea deal to lawyer Adam Hoffman, his friend, for raping a boy (his son’s friend) over three years starting in third grade. Instead of a felony and sex offender registration, Hoffman gets only 30 days in prison and no registration.🤬

🔥@VoteGloriaJ: “We got official word from @GovBillLee — there will be a white power rally at the Tennessee legislature next week on May 5th… that is what this is. They want to take away that seat from MEMPHIS. This is white supremacy. We need you in Nashville making noise.”

REP. @aftynbehn4tn: “Well, that concludes our 250 year 🇺🇸 experiment, because Grandma Gone Wild @MarshaBlackburn decided to eliminate the last Democratically held seat in Tennessee, in MEMPHIS, where 65% of the constituents are Black. We need international attention on this.”

FRANKLIN, TN conservative @DavidAFrench: “I’ve changed my perception of the lingering severity of race problems. We adopted a child from Ethiopia- maybe naive: didn’t think she’d have a different experience than our older kids. There wasn’t a school she wasn’t called the N word.”

@TheTNHoller @DavidAFrench Hey @MarshaBlackburn @timburchett @AndyOgles @RepMarkWhiteTN @RepJohnRose @repgillespie wanna tell me racism in TN doesn’t exist? This is why the Voting Rights Act is so important!
