The Fascists Next Door 6: Tennessee Republicans can Volunteer to go fvck themselves

 We're Not Gonna Fix It! No we ain't gonna fix it! We're not gonna fix it!  Nevermore!

For years Republicans have enjoyed the Corporate Media soft defense of there really is no difference between the Parties but, in Tennessee and elsewhere Republicans are adamant on showing the younger generation that there absolutely is a difference.  That difference being Republican don't give a shit about Americans and Republicans are beholden and made wealthy by their slavish devotion to the Firearms Industry.

And the "Zoomers" and Millenials have taken notice; "You ban books.  You ban drag.  Kids are still in body bags."

Okay Poindexter, they broke the rules!
3 Democratic members of the Tennessee Congress faced explosion by the Republican White Power supermajority and dutifully expelled the two black members.  Ostensibly this was for "breaking rules"but in reality it was for the temerity of not knowing their place, for the "crime" of Unforgivable blackness, and for a word which rhymes with "Mutiny" but begins with up.

"They tried to shred our constitution with a bullhorn," said Rep. Gino Bulso (R-Bald White Old Bastard), who also described their actions as a "mutiny."  See I told you what made Tennessee Republicans mad was a word which rhymes with mutiny but begins UP...

I am hopeful that the young cohort of America do not follow the path Gen X took; when my generation swallowed the Reaganite Lies about voting not mattering, that we should be too cool to vote, and to not vote man cause it just encourages them, because it was exactly what the Republicans needed to ensure their control of the Government through undemocratic means.

But, in Tennessee after The Covenant School shooting (for which we still don't have any release of the killer's notes, plans and other evidence because it most assuredly details child sex abuse by School and Religious officials). Tennessee Republicans made it absolutely clear; they intended to do nothing about gun violence, the number one killer of children in America, despite rushing through all sorts of laws about LGBTQ and drag to "protect" children.

Republicans elsewhere have rushed through rollbacks on any and every regulation, permit, or licensing on guns and gun owners as Florida Governor Ron DeathAnus quietly signed a law on April 3rd to allow the carrying of firearms without permit or even training, right on the heels of multiple shootings over Spring Break.

Republicans don't give a shit about you.  Republicans are racist to the core, bigoted beyond belief, full of hatred and bile, owned by special interests who pollute the Nation and flood the cities and streets with firearms.  Republicans hate America and have nothing to offer the American people.
