A Democrat state lawmaker went on CNN on Wednesday evening and threatened to slash Republicans’ throats.
And CNN didn’t push back at all.
Jolanda Jones, a Texas State Democrat Rep. who is running for a US House seat, went on CNN and told host Erin Burnett that she’s going to get violent with Republicans because she’s from the ‘hood,’
“I’m from the hood, okay!? So when the bully comes like – if there are no rules you have to figure it out so Donald Trump has changed things,” Jones said.
She continued, “And I think that’s why Democrats are losing black people. That’s why they’re losing poor people.”
“Because with poor people, all they want is for us to fight, so if you hit me in my face, I’m not gonna punch you back in your face I’m gonna go across your neck.”
“You gotta hit hard enough where they won’t come back and so yeah, for the same way that I went to New York and spoke with governor Kathy Hochul and said that if they’re gonna try to wipe up out in Texas, we need to wipe out every Republican in New York and California, and Illinois,” she said.
Jolanda Jones didn’t take Michelle Obama’s advice. She said if they go low, I’m going to get in the gutter.
Erin Burnett sat there and did not push back on Jolanda Jones at all.

Jolanda Jones is running as a Democrat for Texas’ 18th Congressional District.
“In Congress, I will fight to stop Trump cuts to healthcare and Medicaid, Social Security, education, and veterans. I’ll fight to lower the cost of prescription drugs, expand coverage for mental health care and substance abuse – and make healthcare more affordable and accessible for all of us,” Jones said on her website.
“I’ve been fighting my entire career for women’s rights, bodies, and voices, and will never stop working to restore abortion rights to make sure women — not politicians — make their own healthcare decisions,” she said.
“Everywhere I go, people ask why Democrats aren’t fighting harder. Join me – and together, let’s show them exactly how to fight Donald Trump,” she added.
