The Democratic Party on full display here. This woman cant mind her own business, assaults this guy cuz he’s eating not wearing a mask all the while she’s NOT wearing a mask. 🙄.
Crazy woman attacks man on flight for not wearing his mask while he eats. This is insane:

“Gender affirming care” is a corrupt machine that has no place in Tennessee. I appreciate @MattWalshBlog for exposing this disgraceful establishment.
🧵1/ BREAKING: The largest “trans healthcare” providers in the U.S. are rubber-stamping letters approving gruesome, life-altering surgeries. It’s such a racket that my producer was approved for testicle removal in #22minutes. The tape is disturbing.

Proud of @WilliamLamberth @SenJohnson for taking the lead on putting an end to VUMC’s barbaric practices. I will support this important work in the State House and defend the children of Tennessee.
MAJOR UPDATE: I have met with Tennessee Rep William Lamberth and Sen Jack Johnson. We are working on a bill to shut down Vanderbilt’s child gender transition program and ban the practice in the state. Tennesseans do not want this barbarism in our state. We will put a stop to it.

Our troops deserve to know that we’ve got their backs. Thanks to @MarshaBlackburn’s efforts, now Biden’s COVID vaccine mandate is one step closer to finally being repealed.
We’re putting an end to Joe Biden’s COVID vaccine mandate in this year’s National Defense Authorization Act.

Good grief. With all we’re going through, Cade Mays has his transfer waiver denied? The NCAA has a chance to right this wrong on appeal, and should. Mays didn’t have a choice but to leave Georgia, and the NCAA knows it. Too bad Mays isn’t a QB. he’d be eligible immediately.

Absolutely speaking the truth here. Been screaming this for months….#Nolockdowns.
Truth bomb dropped on CBS this weekend about our complete and total covid failures when it comes to kids. Absolutely inexcusable what adults did to kids. Some of us have been saying this for two years. Welcome to the party, pal:

TN’s recently passed Truth In Sentencing bill, which TN democrats voted against, this murderer will serve his sentence day-4-day period. Thanks to @CSexton25, @tnhousegop, @ltgovmcnally and @tnsenategop for standing up for victims.
The murderer of Eliza Fletcher, a teacher and young mother of two who was murdered on a jog in Memphis, should have still been behind bars for a violent felony. The soft on crime era must end. Immediately. Lock these guys up and throw away the key:

Doesn’t fit their narrative….
Florida now has the lowest covid infection rate of any state in the country. Compare the media coverage of Florida’s covid cases collapsing with the media coverage of its covid cases increasing. It’s shameful. If the rise is a huge story shouldn’t the fall be too?

A child’s healthcare decisions should be made by and between parents and their primary care physician - not government bureaucrats. If a school system in Tennessee requires a mask mandate, I'll be supporting a Special Session to ban any form of mask mandate in our schools.
Tennessee’s test scores are way down, and our future is at stake! We need students back in the classroom in person with no mandates. That’s our expectation for the new school year. Watch below.⬇️⬇️

WOKE - plain and simple. Now the liberal sports media are asking coaches whether players have been vaccinated. Didn’t really matter to NC State. THEY.WERE.ROBBED.
Every NC State player could buy a College World Series ticket and sit in the packed stands without a mask. But they can’t play in the game itself? Pure insanity. The NCAA should be ashamed.

Whoa - slow down here. Gov’t knocking on my door to “encourage” a voluntary vaccine. Another 2022 scare tactic for the Ds - not falling for this. Vaccine is your choice and your choice only.
BIDEN: "We need to go community-by-community, neighborhood-by-neighborhood, and oft times door-to-door, literally knocking on doors" to get people vaccinated.

It has been said before and bears repeating – universities are for education, not indoctrination. I am extremely disappointed that UT has bowed to the woke mob.
NEW: The University of Tennessee has required every school and administrative unit to produce a “Diversity Action Plan,” effectively mandating the creation of hundreds of DEI policies at every level of the university. We have acquired those plans. Thread:
