    "The constitution doesn't say it..." is so fucking stupid. Making ourselves slaves to a 200 year old document is so fucking ignorant. It's supposed to be a living document that can be updated. But these fucks hide their disgusting bigotry behind "originalism."

    We can vote all we want but it does nothing. They can get a true trifecta and it still doesn't change this unless someone puts a bullet in the head of a right justice.

    At this pace they’ll get rid of birth control and make being gay illegal by next Wednesday

    I’m not a betting man anymore but I think this is actually likely to happen

    Hopefully they get to feel the consequences of giving everyone access to guns

    Mrs Nasties watches The Blacklist, they had this one episode where this doctor kidnapped men who were anti abortion and put a uterus in them then put a fertilized egg in them. These folks couldn’t get an abortion because it was illegal.

    This sucks and that’s my contribution to this thread.

    Given yesterdays gun law ruling, they may soon not be safe in any state, because states rights on this will be next.

    Except that Dems being Dems, they would criticize the act of political assassination and as an olive branch to replace a conservative justice would vote unanimously to appoint John Eastman to take the place of the dead justice.

    This needs to be emphasized. The right has an amazing ability to build institutions to alter power dynamics and public opinion. It is really stunning. Somehow the left is really terrible at operational execution.

    As a ~30 year old, I was in college when Obama was first elected and have never really paid attention to a non-Trump Republican administration. My observation is that democrats are immensely more capable of operating a government and handling the day to day tactics. But, this conclusion is absolutely wrong when you look at the non-governmental operations on the right. Are all of the “good operators” on the right just hired guns outside of the normal political apparatus or am I just misguided because of how much of a shit show Trump was.

    Just waking up in the west coast. Wife is out for a morning yoga class and I’m not sure she’s heard the news…when she gets home, what am I supposed to tell her?

    When the draft leaked she was already beside herself with grief.

    Fuck this country man. We are hurling towards a regressive, theocratic ethno state

    Sad time to be an American.

    Supreme Court overturns Roe v Wade. In many states, women whose life is at risk from a pregnancy or were raped will be forced to carry a birth to term in a country with the worst rate of maternal and fetal death rate in the developed world. Will also open up the possibility of making it illegal for women to to get pregnant via IVF.

    Supreme Court rules that federal officials can't be sued if they violate your Constitutional right to illegal search and seizure, effectively nullifying a Constitutional right from protection of unreasonable search and seizure.

    Supreme Court overturns a NY gun law and essentially says any gun law passed that wasn't based on historical precedent of law dating back to the 1800s is illegal.

    Supreme Court once again rules in favor of federal/state money being forced to go to religious organizations, further eroding any notion of separation of church and state and continuing to make it unconstitutional to separate church and state.

    What rights will the Supreme Court trample on next?

    The stupidity of him and so many people like him has foisted this on the country. We expect the extemists to be extreme, but the morons like Saul who are too stupid to know they're being lied to and led around by their noses are the cause of where we're at.

    It helps when folks who have an immense amount of wealth tend to support hard right policies and have the foresight to create and fund institutions to legitimize those policies.

    This is the attitude that’s helped us backslide this far. “Does it directly affect me? No, okay fuck it then.”

    This ruling turns every woman in this country into a second class citizen and it’s just the tip of the fucking iceberg
