— Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant is condemning a professor’s Twitter post that encouraged people to disrupt senators’ meals the day Brett Kavanaugh was confirmed to the Supreme Court. University of Mississippi sociology professor James Thomas tweeted Oct. 6 that people should put their fingers in senators’ salads and, “They don’t deserve your civility.”Bryant, a Republican, tweeted in response Thursday: “This is troubling and disappointing to see from one of our university professors. In days leading to the Kavanaugh confirmation, opponents protested in Washington, some of them yelling at lawmakers. Put your whole damn fingers in their salads.”
