It was a bill to give immunity to Bayer, who now owns Monsanto, when our farmers get cancer and Parkinson's and sick from their pesticides. And Rusty Grill tried to push this bill through. We worked with Republicans in those communities, farmers who said, we thought you were just this extremist. They told us that you just want to burn the Capitol down. We didn't know you.
And I said, this is how we can win, is by going and lifting up these ideas of what I call agrarian populism. That's how we're going to transform this state. And I have hope, because once I got back from these counties, every time I get back from Pulaski, Columbia, we had a rally down in Bradley County, one of the reddest counties.

One of the Republicans tweeted, I didn't know there was this many Democrats in our county. You know, we have to go and play offense and show up. And I'll tell you the truth, it will terrify them once we get outside of Davidson County, once we get outside of Shelby County and go to their districts and say, did you know that Rusty Grills voted to poison farmers?

Did you know that Clay Doggett voted to privatize our education and steal from our public schools? We have to go there and let them know that we're fighting for them. And the last thing I'll say is that when I was expelled, my message, they said, what is your message to your Republican colleagues? I had just been kicked out of my job in this unprecedented expulsion.

I said, I want my Republican colleagues to know that I'm fighting for their children and grandchildren too. And each time we walk into that building, that's what makes us different from them, is that we're not, we are not this tribalist saying we want to destroy you, that we want you to be obliviated. We want your children to have quality public education.

See, I have a different mindset. As soon as you walk into the Capitol, you'll see Minority Caucus. They call us the Minority Caucus. And I like what they say in England better. In England, they say we are the opposition party. Our role is to be a check on your power, to be a speed bump as you try and drive this train of our state over the cliff.
