What a breath of fresh air. They have a bright future!!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
They will die. Data wise, it will be from some one who looks just like them
@@Shines2God keep up with the news Dumb Debbie - he got unanimous votes from
council to return! You’re too old to be that angry with us young voters that are taking the torch that your slippery fingers dropped by your own incompetence. Go back to fox and worry more about senility 😂
Why
Cause that black card they have going for them. Black privilege!! And ugly mofo privilege.
@@Shines2God meth troll
Most people are lazy and won’t look up the fact that the only other times there have been explosions in the TN legislature was for felonies when a Representative was taking bribes in order to kill a bill from being brought up for a vote and for sexual assault allegations against a member.
The fact that Republicans didn’t give these 2 young men due process and went for the most extreme punishment possible rather than a censure and removal from committee assignments (which would have been more appropriate for breaking decorum rules) speaks volumes of racism. Their own GOP member is on video pushing Justin Jones and knocking his phone camera from his hands and he received no punishment. The white woman Representative broke decorum rules, too, right along side them and she was spared expulsion.
This has shown America in very stark terms that there are 2 systems of punishment, even in our legislative bodies. This blowback will be a stain on the TN Republicans in the next election.
The white woman apologized for her actions and admitted she was wrong. Nice try race baiter.
Don't you know, apparently it is a felony to be a black assembly member in Tennessee.
¾l 9😊
@@johnslade7540 I hate that I must recognize that you are right. 😢
They got due process, that's why the fatso in the middle didnt get expelled, because she did everything she could to show she wasn't shouting. How about you just follow the rules and behave
I stand with the Tennessee 3
Great...so now it's The FOUR Stooges
I dont
Ditto for me!!!!!!!
Tell them to fix our schools
Me too
I can listen to these two young brothers all day
Tennessee should be minting leaders like this. Whole country could turn itself around if we all stood up for what’s right like these two
Are you people insane!? Tennessee is beautiful Nashville is probably the safest major city I have ever visited. These people will destroy Tennessee. I hope you don't live there they need to run those 3 idiots out of town immediately. Blaming guns is dumb as fuck. That person was clearly mentally ill.
@@ChrisNoonetheFirst YES, but they use the black community to further Thier career,
@@qeeqee4946 Whaaaaat? Black voters electing black representatives? Oh. My. God.
Yea 2 staged actors 🎉
Justin Pierce’s comment about who wants to be spoken to in this way should go viral. As a female in a male dominated environment I have been spoken to so many times in a patronizing way by older white males. God bless this amazing young man for speaking the truth to power. May your star be ascendant! You are exactly what this country needs!
Me too. I thought the exact same thing. It was absolutely brilliant!!! Having that level of control and emotional intelligence and being able to express it so clearly in such a charged situation. Absolutely brilliant. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🫶🇺🇸🇺🇸
Oh, look, another victim here in the oppressive land of America. Sucks that you have all those holidays and affirmative action help, you poor, poor victim.
Hi moron. Just wanted to remind you of the irony comming out yo mouth here with your "not an insurection" delusion
@@Member-ur7np maybe you have the same experience. I highly doubt it because the fact that you were so compelled to call me out on my experience means that you were triggered. Similar to these white republicans who were triggered by these black men.
It’s so condescending, and Gen Z will understand exactly where Pearson’s coming from too… keep stepping in it, Republicans.
So proud of these men..So proud!!❤
and who the fuk are you?
This is the change Americans need. Not old career politicians not working for their constituents. This is real political action here and his constituents showed up. Real democracy here folks.
those old white politicians helped build America ,these young people are destroying America.
You mean like Jan 6th?
@@shaunkellison1761 NO, nothing like it at all! Because the January 6th crazy, criminals have been convicted, and serving prison sentences. They will always have a criminal record, and will have a hard time trying to get a job. Their relatives and former friends will have moved on from them.🧐
@@sharoneasley9717 sorry, Sharon… You haven’t hit refresh on your news yet either. Nobody from January 6 was convicted. The only people that served time and were found guilty were those who pled guilty.
So not only are you spreading misinformation, but you are doing it adamantly, the exact same way you were saying your opposition is doing it. This is why people say that people like you are in a cult. Because your adamantly wrong about things that are easily disproven.
@@sharoneasley9717 by the way, Karen… Just thought I might remind you that three people were kicked out of committees because of this. It’s still under review whether or not there will be prosecution because the capital police admit that a crime was committed by these three people.
As an educator, I salute these three individuals for standing up for our children. This is the reason people elected them. Thank you for working for your constituents. I pray for a day to come when educators do not have to feel like liars for telling students they will be safe in their seats at school.
Somebody has to because folks in power don’t care until it’s one of theirs 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
💪🇺🇸💪🇺🇸💪🇺🇸
What a stupid thread this is
Do you attack people with pylons in the street and jump on police cars?
He hit somebody with a weed blower during the 2020 riots in his town. There’s a video circulating right now of him, speaking with a white accent at his rich liberal college less than two years ago.
If you listen to how the House talked to both Justins, it's like an angry parent telling a kid they're grounded. Just shows you how LITTLE the GOP cared about the TOPIC of the protest and how MUCH they cared about punishing powerful, young voices ✊️
Wrong.
@@42awww BEGONE MAGA PUPPET!! 👊
it was a white man saying boy to a grown black man, which is insulting. but i agree with you. they could care less about how many kids and adults get killed. we all need to storm the capital to protest about this. but no climbing up the wall like the apes did on 1/6/
Not true at all. Watch the proceedings for yourself and decide.
@42awww bye maga!! The USA is no longer governed by rich, bigoted, white males only!! Look around and see the change! Don't be scared, black and brown are nice
We need more young men and women with powerful voices that choose to use them. So proud of these young men. And great job Republicans turning them into national figures. 👏
But why can't J. Jones press charges for assault for being pushed. It was witnessed and recorded.
The fact that someone pushed him didn’t get in any trouble whatsoever is super telling that this wasn’t about behavior
Agree completely.
@@dianemoonstone4715 I don’t know if
I really admire both of these young men as well as their female counterpart for really exposing the fractures in our democracy. Every voice is important, even at that level, and their voices should be HEARD if other elected officials are able to have their voices heard subliminally yet POWERFUL. The squeaky wheel ALWAYS gets oiled, regardless of political affiliation or method. As Americans, we really need to see this as it is. If these two legislators can be expelled, ANY legislator CAN whether we agree with them or not. Let’s hear EVERYONE as long as it isn’t violent. Be WILLING to take a step back, hear what is being said, and act accordingly. AGAIN, if it isn’t violent, which this WASN’T. It wasn’t a January 6 situation where people lost their lives. PERSPECTIVE, people…🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Can i admire the jan 6th protesters, or is that too much irony for you to contain?
@@shaunkellison1761 I think you need to look up the definition of irony. But of course you won’t… please continue to live in your Fox News echo chamber where your “trusted news sources” are being sued with overwhelming evidence that they are blatantly lying to you.
@@shaunkellison1761an 6 protests were about a "rigged election." This was about gun violence.
@@shaunkellison1761 you can admire them and join them in jail!
@@TLJ88 you might want to hit refresh on your news feed…
I'm praying that these two young men are the future of government in Tennessee. Speaker Sexton was so quick to call these two young men terrorists for using a bullhorn and so quick to expel them. However, Speaker Sexton was one of two votes to keep a bust of Nathan Bedford Forrest, the man who was a founding member of the biggest domestic terrorist organization America has ever seen. Forrest was accused of a massacre of Black and White Union troops that had surrendered. Under Forrest blacks were whipped by the KKK in attempts to intimidate them into not voting. This is the man Sexton wants to see when he goes into the Capitol every day. Thank goodness they removed the bust.
Just another old white politician holding on to what little power he has left he should be ashamed of himself
@@Member-ur7np
I think anyone with ANY common sense will say their affiliation with the clan was muddy but a leopard doesn’t change their spots he responded like anyone with that background would be expected to respond so no surprise somebody needs to tell this fool it’s 2023 not 1923!!! OMG
@@Member-ur7np wow, we meet again on this thread. Strongly suspect you are a bot at this point as you agree so effing obviously against these amazingly talented Tennessee black young democrats. Show your true colors.
Keep on praying and remember vote blue no matter who 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sounds like false flags.
Extremely intelligent young men. We admire them so much. Thanks Gloria for your support!
Lmfao WHAT?
You're a gullible idiot
Lol
I truly commend all of these leaders, and am extremely impressed by the intelligence and leadership of the these two young Brothas. This sister of another complexion and hue, with a great heart for what’s right, you’re a true jewel. Wishing ALL three of them many, many blessings 💜🙏🏾💯
I totally agree with you......may the Tennessee Three hang in and hang on, do what is needed....
you look like a single mom that smokes newports, how many baby daddies you got?
they aren't leaders, they are insurrectionists. Don't be shocked if your opposing parties do the same thing to you later this year.
@@dianemccloud5990 You mean the Tennessee 6, you evil racist?
Tennessee was a secessionist state, that rebelled against the union. Hopefully we can one day come together in peace.
These 3 are political SUPERSTARS now with huge public support. I hope one of them runs for Governor one day. That would be poetic!
The name Justin means justice, upright and righteous, very appropriate.
God Bless and protect these brave young Gentlemen. 💜
Yes protect them from following rules and then getting the consequences when they break them. Give them a cookie and pat on the bottom later?
Amen!
God does not protect those who enforce racism and division
@@michaeltudda8462 I would comment an opposing viewpoint but know that their is little point. Your comments are so offensive. They are elected legislators and you treat them like naughty children. Who hurt you to make you treat fellow human beings this way?
A-men 👏 A-men 👏 ToGodBeTheGlory
I love intelligent Black men like my logistic engineer father and registered nurse mother.
I have a law degree and MBA degree but all white privileged American sees us as emotionally ignorant that movies project.
We are not ALL IGNORANT. I was told by a white business owner when I was in my early 20s that he cannot hire me because I will be pregnant and unreliable.
I am 53 and never conceived a child. I am a business owner. All black women are not baby makers. I never had an abortion. I have been a conservative independent since 18. No sex. Never married. Dedicated to my staff that love me and my clients
Very dedicated to work my heart out
theres very few of them
Urgh why do you leftist never shut up about race!?
"The three stooges"
*God BLE$$ The TenneSEE Three!*
Look up what the name Justin means!!!To be fair, morally right, righteous!!!Praise the Lord for these two young warriors who are fighting the good fight of faith!!!
I am so proud of all three of the #TennesseeThree and so very grateful they are so brave, dedicated, persistent and just good, decent people who care deeply about other people, about our state and democracy itself. I hope that we the people of Tennessee will join them in calling for democracy in place of the current tyrannical one-party rule that abuses its power and silences any voices of opposition.
The Republican supermajority has vilified these Representatives and any citizens of TN who dare to speak up against any of their policies. And their policies have been harmful to the people: denying healthcare to 400,000 low income Tennesseans, enacting a total abortion ban, attacking the arts and education and environment, day after day.
The TN GOP is turning our state into a place of draconian hateful laws and immense economic inequality. We have high childhood poverty, high infant mortality, high numbers of uninsured, very low wages and low low education funding. The state is honestly an authoritarian mess and the GOP encourage cruelty and hate, as they did during the student protests this past week. TENNESSEE MUST CHANGE.
Sounds like the rest of the world.
that afro is unearthly. its beautiful
Looks like he got it trimmed up.
@@elsierodgers4874 yeah its nice. making me a lil jealous
I love it too
#POWER2THETENNESSEE3 !!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This brother is the absolute truth!
Justin Jones earned a Bachelor of Arts from Fisk University and enrolled at Vanderbilt Divinity School
Justin Pearson graduated as valedictorian of his high school class.
In 2017, Pearson graduated from Bowdoin College in Brunswick, Maine, majoring in Government & Legal Studies with a minor in Education Studies.While at Bowdoin, he was a Mellon Mays fellow, and he was accepted to the summer public policy institute at the Princeton School of Public and International Affairs.
BLESS YOU YOUNG PEOPLE, DO IT❤❤❤
Never thought in my wildest dreams that these Three people have the guts to stand up for human rights, standing up for no more killing of our children in schools across this country would lose their jobs, all across Tennessee stand up if you choose not to because you might feel like it not your children what happen one day when it your children wake up no matter what color your are and stand with the Tennessee 3 they are fighting to save your children life.
What human right?
Where were they when gang violence has killed 1,000% more people?
ts ASHAME that MONEY is MORE VALUABLE than PEOPLE LIVES. Some Lawmakers are GUTLESS and NEED to be VOTED OUT.
Thank you for representing the people
So proud of these young men
They're awesome.
We’ll send them to So Cal, Americas biggest Sh76-Ho&%
Your looking at two strong Black men. The true Leaders of Tennessee. Much respect to them.
Thank y'all for giving our Justins a larger platform
WE'RE NOT GOING BACK A CENTURY AGO
I hope these 3 go far and that the republicans loose their jobs, the next time they are up for election.
Or better yet they get recalled.
Justin Pearson is articulate. I love his look with the eyeglasses 👓 . He looks like a young Malcolm X. No justice. No peace.
Yikes
These young men is what this country needs,not just in Tennessee,but in the Congress of the United states.these bright young men understand the people elected them to speak of them. Not there big DONERS.
My respect to real politicians who not afraid to about weapons issues in the US and I think they will continue to grow and fight for changes in the society 😊
Why didn't they ask Gloria anything?
All the nay sayers need to step aside. Jet fuel is full and they about to speed outta orbit. This incident was the best thing that could have happened to them and state of Tennessee!!! What a platform they have now. Why I never heard of either men??? Now I know. They are threatened by the power these young black men have. You can’t silence the truth. Go get ‘‘em young men. ✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👑👑👑👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Make a movie about these three heroes! ❤
Now this should make people think. Money over people's lives.
Give me some clarity.
1. What was their reason for leading a protest on the house floor with a bull horn?
2. Had they been denied the ability to address gun reform under the usual guidelines? If so,did they then see the need to resort to the floor protest with the bull horn?
Their mics were turned off.
@@elsierodgers4874
Their mics were turned off when they originally tried to address gun reform according to capitol house procedure? Then once that happened they brought the crowd in?
@@CrowdPleeza the crowd was in the public gallery
I'm glad that they haven't forgotten about Gloria Johnson even though she wasn't expelled. She was targeted just like the other two Democrats. Let's not forget that.
I'm glad to hear that they'll be invited back into the house for freedom and representation!!
Invited?
Glad these 3 put a spotlight on this issue.
Bravo to the Tennessee Three for sticking up for democracy and US 🇺🇲 Constitution!!!
They are against the 2nd amendment.
@@sebastienholmes548 no they are for sensible gun control legislation That is not being against the 2nd amendment as you have been brainwashed to believe by the NRA.
Eloquent standing for their constituents voices. How could that be wrong?!?!?
Boycott this State.
Well it's beautiful to see people regardless of color stick together.
In god eyes we all is one..
Share, share, share this video!
That guy reminded me of Malcolm X . He is very charismatic
yea and a racist
@@ron-om1qh racist ? How? Bc the gun regulations in Tennessee?
Especially when he gave the black panther salute! He reminded me more of Buckwheat.
He’s Buckwheat for wear his hair the way it naturally grows out of his head? Says a lot about you.
And what is the black panther salute?
They have to check if the Speaker of the House has the right address for who he represents.
This is the way it SOULD be done. It's time the few stop having all this control over the will of the people
Thank you! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
The history of civil rights:
1 step back, 2 steps forward.
Power to the people!
I have the utmost respect for the TN3! I am an independent voter, and l will only vite for progressive candidates. Just say no to the GOP! I intend to.
“For an act of violence no remediation but for a peaceful protest pushing” smh. These are intelligent young men whose peaceful intelligence showed up the evil of those around them.
We need to protect these two men at all costs. ❤
One of them literally threw a racial slur at an Indian man, calling him "brown face". Why is no one bringing this up?
Well-behaved women seldom make history. This applies to strong men too.
My respect to the Tennessee Three!!!!!
If our country's founders had been quiet and never broke decorum we would be part of Great Britain. I am a 73 year old white woman from the south and I agree with the Tennessee Three. I am a retired school teacher and am sick of our schools being killing fields. If that that goes against decorum so be it.
❤❤godbless them both were behind them fight for your jobs back were sending them love
Intelligent young men. 🙏🏻🙏🏻 Bright future in a hostile environment - a nightmare to some. God Bless these individuals
Democracy is loud, I I respect them for standing up for what they believe in…
I love seeing younger people in politics, I am tired of these old career politicians who are so out of touch with America.
Watching this after Justin Pearson got reinstated today. 4/12/23.
Thank God you Three are standing up for the babies, the youth and Gen Z. All of us.
Thank you ❤ 😊
I have not heard one Republican offer any sympathy, concern or interest in expressing sorrow for The Children in Nashville, TN
The Five people in the bank, Louisville, KY and the shootings before.
They are so wrapped up with tRump.
Abandoned their own state running to another state that is none of their business.
They are behaving like bullies on the playground.
Heroes ❤‼️
Chaos and disruption…….color it a certain color to make it something else.
Learn to
HIT BACK!!!!!!
You have to hit ‘em back and hit ‘em hard, cause that is your one time to make a difference!!!
I love these guys ❤️
TN 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏼❤
LOL, Good luck Marxists agitators, this is our state rat.
Using the death of children to become famous. Sad world we live in.
He said first amendment right, but is willing to destroy the 2nd
we're happy too welcome them both back home where they belong at their seat working for us sending love too then&their families un behalf of all of USA 👍👍proud of them for not backing down from those bully yes godbless

These guys can bring some level of change in the long history of the South
There should be a minimum IQ requirement and behavioral tests!
i love them. especially them two young men.
The GOP in Tennessee seems very perplexed with the situation they created with their mastery of fascism.
Define Fascism
@@shaunkellison1761 An authoritarian right wing.
@@josephwinslow7613 that’s a political party and an opinion about them. That’s not the definition of fascism. Give me the direct definition of fascism, or go back to school and come back when you are smarter.
I will truly like to know the journalist that asked these questions about their views about this situation. Ratings or their opinions.
We thank you for the work you are doing! We support you ❤
These 3 are real law makers ❤✊🏾✊🏾
FANTASTIC!!!!!
Justin J. Pearson and Justin Jones sound like agent names.
Heroes
At 3:59, this has to be the worst reasoning and arguments as to why Jones and Pearson were expelled were due to their actions and the disrespect to the house that they did.
The reason why Johnson was not expelled from the House was because of the content in her expulsion confirmation, particularly due to the wording as to the actions Ms. Johnson did.
If the Right did this, I'm sure the media would be kind😅
Why didnt the female representative resign in support of the other 2?
They should all lose their jobs! They knew they were breaking the rules! There's a checks and balances as a way to do things, and they bogarted the house! It's particularly annoying, and irresponsible that they are attempting to make this about race, and to attempt to make themselves victims.
❤❤❤
I love how they're already a forgotten prop!
3 stooges ?????
Boy bye!!
*2024 Is Going To END The Gr0$$ 0ppre$ive Party*
Amazing young men!!!
The message was solid, the bullhorn nonsense was childish.
This was tooooo crazy what can b done
