When I saw that Tennessee state representative and “unapologetic conservative” Andy Holt was hosting a New Year’s Eve all-day hog killing, I guess I just assumed he’d be a decent guy. I mean, look how much primal man-fun they’re having:

Never mind that Holt’s hog farming practices have reportedly landed him in hot water with the EPA, which slapped the “Christian, husband, father of 5 incredible children” with $177,500 in fines for improperly discharging “860,000 gallons (of waste) from lagoons on the farm raising nearly 1,500 swine without proper authorization,” according to the Memphis Commercial Appeal.
At any rate, it took four days to get over the New Year’s meat sweats, but I’m happy to announce Rep. Holt is back on Twitter. And it may be a new year, but it’s the same grand ol’ Andy:
Now, before you Democraps freak, he deleted the tweet:
Delete tweet so liberal loons will quit responding. More liberal loons respond. Get off Twitter & read the Constitution, kids. #bundymilitia

I told you not to freak!
. @AndyHolt4TN Honorable Rep. Holt: please point us to the section that allows for armed seizure of federal buildings? #bundymilitia

@ElevenPointTwo @BeautyBind @AndyHolt4TN I'd love to see where Constitution says I can take over Federal buildings. Few I'd like to claim.

@rob_melrose He's openly divisive to other voters and gay people on his timeline while leaving a trail to his door @AndyHolt4TN

Cool it before you make Andy do something you’ll regret:
@SmawtAss @rob_melrose Yup. Come on up to my door. Would be glad to greet you.

It’s really y’all’s fault for making a state representative of a town where whites outnumber everyone else 10 to 1, try to understand race relations:
Ferguson protesters set streets on fire/destroy countless properties- liberals call it free speech, but say #bundymilitia R terrorists lol.
— Andy Holt (@AndyHolt4TN) January 4, 2016
support 10th Amdmt, support #bundymilitia. I support both-Although, setting buildings on fire doesn't accomplish much. Wait- tht's Baltimore

“I do lend my moral support to the Bundy militia, or whatever they call themselves,” Holt told The Tennessean during a Monday phone interview. “At some point, it takes some kind of activity like this to cause it to be a focal point.”
Rest assured, snack-hungry Bundy militiamen, help is on the way–in the form of pig jerky.
