Rep. Jeremy Faison (R) blocked a resolution honoring Grammy winner Allison Russell while a nearly identical one for the band Paramore passed. Paramore rejected “any acknowledgment or honor” from the Tennessee House until Russell is given the same honor.

Russell apparently took the blocking as a complement (she's been a frequent critic of the TN GOP): eu.tennessean.com/story/news/p...
Russell, who has been a frequent critic and advocate against Tennessee GOP policies, said she takes the objection as a "compliment."
America has a problem with its Republicans.
Tighten your belts y’all, Faison’s in the news
Good. Impossible to accept honor from those without honor
I’m sure the reason why is white in front of us.
Bro lemme get a gift link
Never ceases to amaze me how badly wrong Republican-governed states continue to be.
So that's just blatant racism and political fragility on Fai[L]son's part.
