“I’m sick and tired of me and my family being attacked and harassed by the Democrat Party for putting my country before my party. I take pride in being an independent thinker. My first amendment right to freedom of speech is under siege. I intend to help the Democrat Party get rid of its bigotry against Black people that are independent and conservative.”
“I endorsed the White guy (Donald J. Trump) that let Blacks out of jail, and they endorsed the White guy (Joe Biden) that put Blacks in jail. Turn the lights off, I have left the plantation. Someone else can occupy that suite. Therefore, I intend not to complete my term effective April 22, 2020. However, I will remain woke and vigilant in educating and fighting for my people.” – Georgia Representative Vernon Jones(D)
Good deal!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Bully! (and I mean that in a Teddy Roosevelt way)
Well, I will be dipped. There actually are some honorable men in the Democrat party after all.
RIGHTEOUS. Good luck to you sir.
You are a man of principle, most Dimwits have none!
Too bad he didn’t do like those in federal congress, just switch parties and work for the right way in the GA house.
But congratulations to him for becoming truly ‘woke’.
“However, I will remain woke and vigilant in educating and fighting for my people.” – Georgia Representative Vernon Jones(D)…Who’s his people?….Does that include me and the rest of us melanin challenged folks?….
I’m old, cranky and I distrust ALL politicians especially dems. Is he being honest or is he just following the current wind direction.
I’ve seen too many D’rats switch to Republican in my county, just to get elected, & then go back to
governingenriching themselves off the taxpayer teat to trust anyonebut, then again …. PDT & Reagan were once D’rats, as I once was
so, if you’re sincere, Bravo Sir, Bravo & welcome to the party … if not, it shows your character, & you’re a typical shithouse D’rat … hope you do something unusual for a politician & don’t disappoint
I think I’ll send him a “welcome home” card.
Not so fast, dude. This statement makes his plantation escape a little hinky;
“I intend to help the Democrat Party get rid of its bigotry against Black people that are independent and conservative.”
That’s an impossible task. The Democrats will never be anything but tyrannical, Godless, socialist, deviant power brokers. He needs to completely walk away and come home with an “R” beside his name.
Everything is right, but DON’T RESIGN YOUR SEAT! They will just fill it with a more brainwashed and loyal house negro who loves the plantation and whips those who don’t.
Stay in your spot, you earned it, you can influence policy, now we are going to watch a radical take that seat, and use so much money and energy to kick them out.
Bad call…
This is how RINOS are made.
You don’t see that every day.
He isn’t brave. He’s running away because he’s getting flak from Democrats. He needs to either switch parties or kill himself because he is now permanently dead to Democrats.
wow, did hell freeze over?
a democrat with values and morals
who would have thought they would ever see that ?
wait until he figures what abortion has done the blacks!
IMPORTANT UPDATE:
Vernon Jones has changed his mind after getting tons of support from constituents. He will NOT be quitting after all.
