Original Note:
President Biden mistakenly states that the lawmaker expulsion from the Tennessee legislature is without precedent. In fact, expulsion has happened three times previously; in 2016 (sexual misconduct), 1980 (bribery) and 1866 (prevention of ratification of the 14th amendment). https://www.knoxnews.com/story/news/politics/2023/04/06/rep-gloria-johnson-survives-expulsion-vote-tennessee-house-for-peaceful-gun-control-demonstration/70087846007/
