      IMPORTANT: On Friday's episode of @TheBreakdown we demanded that Tennessee Speaker of the House @GlenCasada fire his Chief of Staff, Cade Cothren, for calling Black people niggers in text messages. They said the texts were fake. Today they admit they lied and much more.

      Thanks to brilliant reporting from @NC5PhilWilliams - where he got copies and videos of the actual text messages - Cade Cothren, Chief of Staff to @GlenCasada now admits he snorted cocaine in the offices & sent scores of racist/sexist text messages.https://www.newschannel5.com/news/newschannel-5-investigates/tn-house-speakers-chief-of-staff-admits-past-drug-use-confirms-text-messages …

      What's wild is that while his Chief of Staff was snorting cocaine in his office, Speaker of the House @GlenCasada was advocating for a bill requiring people on food stamps to pass drug tests. Then he gave his Chief of Staff a $198,000 a year salary.https://www.newschannel5.com/news/newschannel-5-investigates/tn-house-speakers-chief-of-staff-admits-past-drug-use-confirms-text-messages …

          If we're to insist on drug testing welfare recipients, start with the biggest moochers of all: Congress. If your paycheck comes from our taxes, if you have power over policy and/or law, if your ability to think clearly affects the lives of people- you get randomly tested. Often.

          Drug use and alcohol abuse is rampant, I suspect, in the Republican Party (& financial industry). After the 2008 crash, lots of Wall Street guys got into NA. You wonder how they have so little compassion for others: drug/alcohol abuse would explain it. *Some Dems too.

          These people have zero shame, if you point out simple hypocrisy, their answer probably would be “the rules don’t apply to me I’m a well to do white male”. #Hypocrites

          No one ever asks how we will pay for the testing on welfare recipients. -let’s just look at who administers the tests. This is a classic example of funneling contracts. Pro life my ass. 🤷🏾‍♂️
