This is the despicably GOPe flexing their muscles. If Trump does nothing about it or says nothing about it then he is no longer on our side, he has surrendered and taken us a deal.
It’s what our Government does to those who have conservative opinions
"Our Democracy" spits on that.
This is a disgrace.
He was not shoved to the ground...he got off balance and lost his footing. I’m inclined to think he’s drunk. Maybe not???
GA. one of the most corrupt political regimes on earth.
He took down a couple of corrupted politicians and had the gall to go after Fani Willis. That’s what got him “barred.”
Appears that no one here read the article. He is a GA State Senator and banned from the GA House last year for speech the House didn’t like.....
How can a duly elected state senator be banned from the Senate chamber? He has a right and obligation to be there.
This what it is about:

@pepesgrandma
🔥🔥🔥Breaking! Hear the speech that Rino
@JonBurnsGA
used to permanently ban MAGA Senator, Colton Moore, from ever attending a senate session ever again.
Colton has been banned from representing his constituents since March 2024! And today, he was ARRESTED for attempting to finally attend a joint session!
This was over Senate Resolution 687. The resolution was to urge the University of North Georgia to name a building after the late House Speaker David Ralston.

Chairman of the Georgia Republican Party Josh McKoon’s statement on the Moore affair; “I am deeply disappointed that Senator Moore was denied admission and shocked that he was apparently subjected to arrest for attempting to attend the joint session today, after being physically manhandled.
‘It was not only legally appropriate to admit him to today’s proceedings — it was simply the right thing to do.”
Is this a matter of a white senator daring to criticize a popular politician who was black? I don’t know any of the characters. Some people overreact mightily if you say a discouraging word about one of their personal heroes.
“A 1905 state law (O.C.G.A. § 17-8-26) requires judges and prosecutors to defer to the schedules of any member of the general assembly who is also a practicing lawyer, and as speaker, Ralston was able to claim scheduling conflicts any time of year. By delaying court cases in this manner, Ralston was able to keep his clients free on bond for months or even years, while weakening court cases over time by letting memories fade and evidence expire. Some of Ralston’s clients retained him specifically for these reasons.”

“Moore’s comments about Ralston came about last year as a portrait of the longtime speaker was unveiled inside the House.
Moore had said: ‘This body is about to perpetually memorialize one of the most corrupt Georgia leaders we’ll ever see in our lifetime.’”
Criticizing a politician is enough to get kicked out of Georgia’s senate chambers. Ridiculous. 6 cops to arrest him?
If the federal congress had those rules everyone would be arrested.

See also reference 45, which is not directly related.
There is a lot more video.
I don’t understand why he was not admitted. If he was unruly, he could be asked to leave or taken out. Was he the only one in his category who was not invited.
Is this being done because he says unpleasant things?
The use of judo on an elected representative is not a good look. I think the people deserve to really know what is going on.
Colton Moore's arrest was contrary to the Constitution of the state of Georgia which states that no elected representative may be banned from entering the State Assembly except for treason , espionage or felony.
Kemp is using his state house black slave police detail to arrest Colton Moore.YOu can see it on the video ( Yes I played that race card...why not...its truth)
Moore is a MAGA supporter, The GOP good old boys who are RINOs do not want their state money cart upset , they depend on its lucre.This incident may be Kemp's undoing politically, as the old guard Republicans try to hang on to power.
Video Sources are good and accurate...listen to what MAGA supporter Moore has to say:
He does have a constitutional right if not outright duty to attend the joint session of the GA legislature at the state of the state address.
This is just the GA RINOs club taking retribution against a conservative for calling out one of their former Speakers David Ralston who finally blessedly died and we’re rid of his sorry azz.
