President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris met with the Tennessee Three, three Democratic lawmakers who faced expulsion votes over their act of protest advocating for gun control. The trio used a bullhorn to address those in the room and were accused of "knowingly and intentionally" bringing "disorder and dishonor to the House of Representatives" without being recognized to speak.
