You were right the way you used to think. I am one of the most progressive members in Tennessee’s history, and I’ve been one of the most progressive members of Congress.And represented a majority minority district for 20 years and not to lose a precinct in a reelect >18 years is pretty amazing.

I boycotted both of Netanyahu’s speeches to Congress. I’m no fan of his.He is hurting Israel. I was the first Member to join JStreet and endorse them. I’ve never received any money from Aipac. I’ve always been a very pro two state solution Congressman and I’ve encourage humanitarian aid to Gaza

I was original sponsor of the Green new deal. And was leading Congress Person in the fight against the Keystone pipeline. So yes, I’ve been there on environmental issues and others
I doubt I’ll ever run again. I’m 77 and post polio has taken a toll on physical abilities. I’ll miss Congress.

Don't let this recent political technology campaign to make leftists attack Democrats get you down. You made a tremendous difference in your career as an elected Democrat and are appreciated by those of us who haven't been caught up in all of this anti-Democrat activism.

@repcohen.bsky.social the Hawai’i Supreme Court seems to share the perspective on John Roberts’ legacy you argue for in your Articles of Impeachment.

I have never supported Netanyahu. Didn’t like him from the time I met him in 2007.

Steve, I’m sorry to see you go. You have been a beacon of hope for the people of Tennessee, the country,& our planet. Whatever you do next, I hope it brings you happiness and some peace of mind. I worked in TN for 20 years. I know some of what you’ve dealt with. As my students say, You are the man!

We have a president who is out of control and it scares me and it should scare you.
Tonight was a first play setting up his attempt to overthrow the '26 election!
Trump makes deals with himself. Talk about making a deal with the devil.

You are very thoughtful appreciate you
J Street
Republicans
That came from Mars. I’ve been for Medicare for all since I got in Congress 20 years ago. Come on Colleen give me your best shot.
Thank you very much for your supportive text. For nearly 45 years I’ve been the voice for the voiceless in Tennessee and stood up for a progressive agenda and oppose the establishment when they were wrong, which was most of the time. I passed a lottery that provided over $8 billion in scholarships.
Well, I never lost a precinct in those 12 years in a primary election. I delivered for Memphis and I took positions that were controversial, but correct like impeaching Trump, and calling out his lies. Boycotted his SOTU.
I was selected as the fifth most effective Congressman in the Dem caucus
And my support for Israel was far from staunch. Basically, I supported the JStreet positions and was their poster child when I endorsed them in 2009 or so. We did polls and they showed me winning and gaining strength.
That was not a public poll .That was a post by Justin. Justin told so many lies about me. I don’t trust anything he says anymore. Said I live in a mega mansion, that I never spoke at his rallies, that we were never friends, and then I spent my time trying to get support from lobbyists. All false.
I have never supported Netanyahu. Didn’t like him from the time I met him in 2007.
No, I have never defended Netanyahu and I think he’s gone way too far but he did have 1200 of his citizens murdered and another 200 or so takin hostage on October7. And Hamas was in it until the end, and most of its leaders came to their end.
But I was leading by a goodly margin and would’ve won despite the Israel issue being waived against me at the end. There wasn’t another issue which would’ve closed the gap which was rather large. I have good district I think my constituents for their support of the years.
