SCOTUS 15: Help Us, Ruth Bader Ginsburg! You're Our Only Hope!

Which is funny coming from the same party that says “It’s the person, not the gun.”

Weird how that works.

Same people who say trumps sex life is his business but a woman’s body?? Huurrrrdurrrr that’s their business

And what I do with my partner is their business too.

Well to be fair they're only trying to save you from your innate sinfulness.

As regards the individual nature, woman is defective and misbegotten, for the active force in the male seed tends to the production of a perfect likeness in the masculine sex; while the production of woman comes from a defect in the active force or from some material indisposition, or even from some external influence. —Thomas Aquinas

You could have been a man if only you'd tried harder as a zygote. It's kinda on you, girl.

Now be a dear and make me a sammich.

[busterman62]

Do you support the party that does this? Are you actively working to end such actions? Then you're part of the problem.

Own it.

You're not stupid, you know exactly what I am saying. Even if you don't rufus explained it to you.

You bought the ticket; you take the ride. People who vote for Nazis are responsible for what those Nazis do.

FYI. In the past twelve years I've voted for ONE Republican in national elections. It was my congressional Rep. who retired in 2015. He was a very strong supporter of agriculture and since I grew up in a farming community (ie. Hic), I set a high priority on that and felt it outweighed the other issues. I'd do it again. I have completely stopped donating $ to any party or PAC since I feel this type of money is harmful to our democracy. Whenever the subject of immigration comes up, I express my distaste of ICE's current practices and politely explain to those that support it why I feel they are wrong (I live in MAGA country so the opportunity to do this occurs rather frequently). I freely admit that I haven't gone down to the border and protested or personally saved children from ICE like I'm sure that all of you do on a daily basis. As such, my "actively working to end such actions" has been limited to my failure to support them and calling my Reps office to voice my displeasure (he's a full blown MAGAt so it was a waste of time and effort). I have voted for zero Republicans in 2016 & 2018.

(I realize that none of you would know any of this. However, just because I don't sing in the Lady's Chorus (© Old Pio) around here, assuming that I must a supporter of the Republican party is intellectually lazy. "You're either with us or against us" is as stupid now as it was when it came out. However, I am getting older, so maybe I forgot about posting something in support of this current administration. Point it out to me and I'll provide a Mea culpa. In order to save time, please remember one thing in your search for said posts: Pointing out faults in one Party ≠ Support for the other Party)

So....... if the above is supporting the Republican party and their policies, I'm frelling guilty. I've got my ticket to ride and I own it. Hell, I'm not part of the problem, I AM THE PROBLEM. Protect your children, the Brown ones are only the beginning. Sieg Heil Mother Fruckers!

If you're going to cite Old Pio, get it right - it was the Libtard Ladies' Chorale.

Major Eff Up by Me [feels shame]

[Kepler]

Evidently this was the week the Dems' testicles dropped.

On the one year anniversary of Dr. Christine Blasey Ford’s testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee, Sen. Kamala Harris is calling on the House Judiciary Committee to launch a formal impeachment inquiry into Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh, citing a need to determine the truth about the allegations against him after a farcical investigation last year.

In an op-ed for Elle magazine, Sen. Harris noted the FBI investigation was “not serious.” Indeed, the agency did not interview multiple witnesses and/or corroborators, something they said was inexplicably outside the scope of their extremely narrow investigation directives. The system failed women and she made the case to revisit the Kavanaugh allegations through an impeachment inquiry.

Here it comes.

This case was already decided and they are taking it up again. That means they plan on changing their minds. Which, means the conservatives have the votes now.

The U.S. Supreme Court has jumped headlong back into the abortion wars. The court said Friday that it will hear arguments in a case from Louisiana that is nearly identical to a Texas case decided by the court three years ago.

Like the Texas law that the court previously struck down, the Louisiana law requires any doctor performing an abortion to have admitting privileges at a nearby hospital; it also requires that clinics that provide abortions be, in effect, mini-hospitals, with everything from wide corridors to expensive equipment.

The Supreme Court said in the Texas case that neither was needed to protect women's health and that both requirements imposed "a substantial burden" on a woman's right to abortion.

Louisiana has conceded that its law is virtually identical to the Texas law. The difference between then and now is that Justice Anthony Kennedy, who cast the decisive fifth vote in the 2016 Texas case, has retired and been replaced by Trump appointee Brett Kavanaugh, who has indicated his willingness to undermine or discard the 2016 decision.

If this flips poor women in the South getting any kind of reproductive Health Care, or Health Care in general is finished.

[Kepler]

It's a brilliant strategy. Impoverished, bankrupt, violent Republican states criminalize abortion. More babies, more poverty, less social services, more violence equals more Republicans.

The perpetual underclass feeds the right.

I'm assuming the person at the AOC event was a troll. A mega troll. But still, AOC didn't call her a raving lunatic either.

She said she was concerned about the woman's mental state, and wanted her to get help. But yeah, AOC condones baby eating.

Cruelty emboldened by the decrepit POS he worships.
Best part is, he thinks he’ll die and face judgment but in reality his god isn’t real. He’ll rot in the earth next to all the female sinners who dared to have control over their body

[ScoobyDoo]

Our analysis shows that the chief justice’s voting record is as conservative as those of his most extreme current and former colleagues — Justices Thomas, Samuel Alito Brett Kavanaugh and Antonin Scalia. In all 42 split-decision cases that the chief justice has presided over involving racial minorities, immigrants, workers and abortion, he voted for conservative outcomes 100 percent of the time.

The Supreme Court’s new term that begins on Monday could prove momentous, with cases involving gun control, abortion, L.G.B.T. rights and immigration. The term is likely to signal how far the court’s conservative majority will go to block the agenda of the next Democratic president and Congress.

And you all tell me not to worry, that Roberts will help us with the deciding vote, blah, blah, blah.

I think this is a bad idea. Obviously Supreme Court Bro shouldn't have been confirmed, but we need to focus on Trump first before impeachment fatigue sets in.

[Handyman]

100% agreed. If the Dems start talking about Impeaching everyone it will start to turn on them.

Kamala Harris is trying to save her mediocre Presidential campaign
