Well, steph, it might look rude to someone who subscribes to that automatic veneration crap demanded by every cheap enlisted man who overachieved by graduating high school. It makes total sense on their end, because it entitles them to elevated perceptions of their character earned by a few good men, while allowing them to avoid rigors much more demanding than falling in line and eating and sleeping on the taxpayer's dime. Even under that low bar, Babbitt fell short. The DoD frowns upon its own employees using force to attack our national seat of power. She lived dishonorably, she disgraced her country, and died a loser, and a chump, stevie. And one of the funniest things about her death is that in her final moment as a human, she observed a real American service hero fulfilling his duty by by putting one of our bullets into an enemy of the state.
She died for nothing. People like you can't even extract value from her sedition by martyrizing her on internet forums without immediately marking yourselves as clowns. She took the (bleep) bird express straight to hell.
What was the purpose behind mentioning that she was a small business owner? Might be time to ask yourselves why all of your foremost statesmen are worthless hucksters. Are we supposed to revere that like it's another layer of clout? That she sold things? Lemme guess: pillows

(U.S. Supreme Court formally overrules Roe v. Wade)
Quote:
The Supreme Court has ended constitutional protections for abortion put in place nearly 50 years in a decision by its conservative majority to overrule Roe v. Wade. The outcome is expected to lead to abortion bans in roughly half the states.
The Supreme Court has become the American Taliban. The majority of the justices (five people) have forced their religious point of view on half the population. And they lied during their confirmation hearings when they said they considered Roe settled law.
November 8, 2022.
Show up and show out. Biden has better let the chopper sing, or it’s going to be smoke in the city.

Clarence Thomas writes, in a concurring opinion, that the Supreme Court should reconsider Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell — the rulings that now protect contraception, same-sex relationships, and same-sex marriage.
Horrible day but we knew it was coming. The only solution is for women to come out in droves and vote. This is bigger than inflation and gas prices. This is human rights.

In 2016 when we sounded the alarm and talked of the need to vote Democratic ticket for Hillary because this is what Republicans would try to do, we were told we were being hysterical and not to vote with our vaginas.
And here we are. They are coming for everyone who is not a straight, white, right-wing Christian male.
(And Uncle Tom Clarence and Aunt Karen Amy are their accomplices because they are protected no matter what.)

Elections have consequences and for those who sat out in 2016, this is the fruit of that action (or inaction). _________________ From 2-10 to the Western Conference Finals

Lets be honest as well. The gop denied Obama a seat on the scotus and there was zero pushback from dems, because they thought Hillary would pick up the baton.
We know there are some states that are just dark red, but the dems needed a rallying cry as horrible as this is. If women come out and vote, they will win. This is a state issue now.
In his concurring opinion, Thomas takes aim not just at abortion but at previous decisions governing contraception, interracial marriage and anti-sodomy laws, saying “we have a duty to ‘correct the error’ established in those precedents.”
People who really need to vote a straight Democratic ticket this November and forever:
-Anyone in an interracial marriage
-Anyone in a same-sex marriage
-Women who want to take contraception and their partners
-All gay people

its really sad
MITCH MCCONNELL CONTROLLED THE SENATE. THERE WAS LITERALLY NOTHING THEY COULD DO EXCEPT TALK. Mitch had all the power and he wielded it. That's 100% on Republicans and 0% on Democrats or Obama.
How many times are the Democrat politicians going to fail their voter base? Many chances to codify it into law came and went. Got out maneuvered by a turtle in the Senate. I saw an interview with Pelosi when the leak was released, where the person straight up asked her how the Democrats got outplayed here, and she sat there with a dumb ass grin and said "I just don't know" That is your job, isn't it? To know? Just failures up and down the party. Was never a real priority to them, even if a super majority of the base wanted it protected.
New: House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on SCOTUS overturning Roe v Wade: “Because of Donald Trump, Mitch McConnell, the Republican Party and their supermajority on the Supreme Court, American women today have less freedom than their mothers.”
Pelosi: “While Republicans seek to punish and control women, Democrats will keep fighting ferociously to enshrine Roe v Wade into law… But make no mistake: the rights of women and all Americans are on the ballot this November.”

I know but there was zero fight. That’s the dems M O. Just like now. They have majority and can’t get anything done. They get nothing done. Let’s see how they leverage this. The jan6 com pushed hearing knowing this was coming down and didn’t want to get drowned out.
This is terrible but where the dems were supposed to get smashed in November, this could actually reverse that.
Women are no longer full citizens and we do not live in a Democracy.
What?????
Just because five of the concurring justices were appointed by a president not elected by a majority of the people while the sixth has a batpoop crazy wife who participated in what appears to be an attempted coop??? _________________ "A metronome keeps time by using a Ringo"

You need to read up about how the Senate works before you blame Pelosi or Democrats for this. That's bs. This is 100% on every Republican and every 2016 voter who sat out or voted for Jill Stein. Period. 99% of Democrats have done everything they could.
Republicans put dark money groups together 30 years ago buying off politicians and judges leading to this moment. They are immoral, corrupt authoritarians. They pushed Citizens United and every other chipping away at individual rights.
Again, that's 100% on the immoral anti-Democratic REPUBLICAN PARTY.
