This was also a unanimous vote. Quelle Surprise.
Shelby County Commissioners reappointed Justin Pearson to the Tennessee House of Representatives Wednesday to cries of applause and cheers of excitement.
“When we went to the well of the House myself, Rep. (Gloria) Johnson and Rep. (Justin) Jones, we said we have an allegiance to a people, people who are tired of business as usual," Pearson said. “We do not speak alone. We speak together. We fight together. So a message for all the people in Nashville who decided to expel us: You can’t expel hope. You can't expel our voice. You sure can’t expel our fight.”
The expected move from commissioners means Pearson could be back in the state House as early as Thursday, less than a week after he and Rep. Justin Jones, who represents Davidson County, were expelled from their seats.
"The status quo needs changing," Pearson told supporters earlier in the day. "And that status quo needs you."
My suggestion for Gloria, her fellow legislator Justin, and her other fellow legislator Justin should use their new-found prominence to go after the speaker. There is already significant evidence that Speaker Sexton has committed a number of crimes, misrepresent his place of residence, filed for excessive travel expenses, etc.
I'm pretty sure that if dig deeper they will find more.
