Harris backs expelled Tenn. lawmakers against ‘attack on democracy’
NY Post ^ | 04/14/2023 | Steven Nelson

Vice President Kamala Harris defended two Tennessee Democratic legislators who were expelled — and quickly reinstated — after leading a rowdy pro-gun control protest with bullhorns on the floor of the state House of Representatives last month.

Harris told the National Action Network’s annual convention in Harlem Friday that a “bullhorn becomes necessary” when “extremists” won’t listen.

Tennessee House Speaker Cameron Sexton, a Republican, accused the Democrats of “doing an insurrection in the Capitol” and led his caucus in expelling them for the disruption, invoking terminology used by critics of former President Donald Trump to describe the violent riot by his supporters that disrupted certification of the 2020 election.

“The voices of students, parents, teachers and preachers will not be silenced,” the veep said. “And these voices must be heard. These voices must be heard, they will not be discouraged or deterred — even if using a bullhorn becomes necessary!”

I’m getting pretty pissed off that Republicans and conservatives are using it so liberally. We’re a constitutional Republic. Or at least we were.

What a complete di@khead she is. A mob takes over the chambers during a session, the representatives encouraged and joined the mob, yelling from the podium with a bullhorn, and she supports them.

attack on crazed libtardism and barbarism

Did Harris volunteer to spread her legs for the hooligans?

March on the Capitol to protest a stolen election = “attack on democracy”

Expel politicians for protesting legally passed legislation from inside the capitol = “attack on democracy”

Definitely retarded.

‘Harris told the National Action Network’s annual convention in Harlem Friday that a “bullhorn becomes necessary” when “extremists” won’t listen.’

So Harris places Mob Rule over the Constitutional Rule of Law. This violates her oath of office. She must resign the Vice Presidency immediately.

With a few word changes, her statement isn’t so bad: “Firearms become necessary when tyrants abet Mob Rule.”

Quite a history ole Word Salad has when it comes to “supporting” people.

First it was bailing out rioters, looters.

Then it was support for BLM and defunding the police.

Now word salad has moved on to supporting insurrectionists.

Can’t wait for what comes next.

Someone needs to tell this gleeful airhead that the public has lost interest since one of these imbecilic officials has been found to be the incarnated Rev King.
