I’m sorry to learn about the two members of the National Guard being shot and in critical condition in DC. Gun violence must end. We need laws to limit access and prevent these tragedies. These service members should be home, not deployed as a tyrant’s pawns. Praying for them. 🙏🏾

Never trust Pam Bondi or this Administration. The task force & occupation in Memphis has ICE separating children and families, has more stops for traffic tickets than any focus on “violent crime,” and has costs millions that could’ve eradicated poverty. https://t.co/RQgRCVM2xJ

Despite claims from the Trump administration, Pearson says the federal task force is "not making Memphians safer."

TN9 Candidate for Congress REP. @justinjpearson on @govbilllee & Trump’s occupation of MEMPHIS, which was just ruled unconstitutional (after Lee was caught lying that most arrests were of violent criminals):

“HANG THEM…”! From the President of the United States of America. This is abhorrent and terrifying to see this man advocating the killing of duly elected Representatives who faithfully served and defended their nation. This is unbelievable, unconscionable , and real life.

The President the United States is brushing off the murder and dismemberment of an American journalist by Saudi Arabia as “things happen.” Yet another unconscionable act of this administration. Who does trump serve? The CIA was clear about this and trump ignores it.

They don’t care about the lives of millions of people and their suffering. It’s sickening and heartbreaking for the American people. We cannot yield to their tyranny. It’s time for Healthcare for Everybody!

8 Democrats are ending the trump and Republican-led shut down. I disagree. We need to keep premiums down for health insurance and that is not guaranteed in the deal. trump partied, golfed, and vacationed—never negotiating— while millions suffered. That’s the Republican Party.

After decades of the same leadership, #TN09 can't just keep going with a status quo that's failing them. @Justinjpearson is running to bring people-first leadership to TN's only blue district. From Elon Musk to the NRA, he has the courage to take on the biggest fights & win.

So proud to see leaders suing to stop the illegal deployment of the National Guard in our community. We want poverty eradication, not military occupation! #freethe901

Praying for President @JoeBiden and First Lady Biden as President Biden fights cancer. Having lost both of my grandmothers to cancer, I know that fighting requires many prayers and love. Sending prayers to the Bidens as they take on this fight! We’re rooting for you in TN!
Cancer touches us all. Like so many of you, Jill and I have learned that we are strongest in the broken places. Thank you for lifting us up with love and support.

@SenBrentTaylor @xai Why you lyin?
WATCH: “All Republicans do is lie… @SenBrentTaylor is saying people were yelling at him because of XAI. No, it was because of the offensive comments he made about Memphis students ‘hanging on like a crackhead’s last tooth’ — I’m glad they checked him.” Why you lyin’, Brent? 🤔

WATCH: “We are fighting it on our own… they left the people out that live in this city.” MEMPHIS folks are watching Elon Musk’s XAI supercomputer buy up more and more land and use more and more resources — getting few answers. (From @MemphisCAP_org)
