Senator Beavers, were not animals to be kept out! Were citizens, Jones yelled back. But she was gone.
Well be back again, and well keep coming back and shutting down her office until hopefully one day shell shut down her hatred and her bigotry," Jones told reporters. He plans to return on Wednesday morning to try again.
Later in the day, Beavers doubled down on her earlier comments in a tweet:

But Beavers seems to have no problem with non-constituents when they do agree with her. On March 4, she is supposedly one of the speakers at the so-called "Spirit of America" rally, which is hosted by Tea Party activist and talk radio host Mark Skoda. The rally is supposed to show support for Trump but it will also encourage the impeachment of federal judges specifically, two of the judges who stayed Trump's broad-sweeping immigration order last month. Also scheduled to speak are Sen. Mark Green (R-Clarksville), who is trying to ride Trump's coattails to governor, and House Majority Leader Glen Casada (R-Thompson's Station), who said he had no idea he was supposed to speak at the event.

(5,287 posts)1. I like the ideas of those constituents who are showing their zip codes to their elected
officials to demonstrate that they are indeed residing in the given districts.
State or other IDs for officials elected state-wide.

She sponsored a Birther bill back before the 2012 election.
Senator Mae Beavers from Tennessee is clueless about her own "Birther" bill
