Left-wing activists were heard in secretly recorded audios laying out plans to “bird dog” Republican legislators during Tennessee’s August specials session to address gun control.
An activist leading a training session told fellow agitators, “Y’all know the videos where they’re like hustling down the hallway in the legislature behind some Republican trying to get them on camera, like eating their words, basically? We call that bird dogging in activism, and you’re going to learn how to do it because it is a really incredible tactic.”
