Yes, guns – but also, when there are forces, and especially when governments are included among them, endorsing the idea that abortion is "wrong, evil, murder, etc." it will inevitably increase the rate of violence against abortion care providers, activists, and patients.
Anti-abortion extremism expressed via legislation and propaganda enables anti-abortion extremism to be expressed via violence.
He's got the gun lobby to flood America with firearms, to weaken the country per daily massacres killing more Americans every single day than subjects of the Kremlin dicktator are dying daily - not counting Putin's conscript victims he sent to die in Ukraine.
“KYIV, May 16 (Reuters) - Anti-corruption authorities in Ukraine said on Tuesday they had detained the head of the country's Supreme Court in an investigation they cast as an important step in Kyiv's fight against high-level graft.”
It started with a corrupted 2nd Amendment & gushed down from there
Moral decadence lowers standards of moral behavior & creates new but lower criteria for ethics & justice.
People are no longer required to act morally or ethically. Society no longer expects it
Moral decadence creates a general sense of cynicism.
People no longer expect each other to be noble. They no longer expect each other to be honest.
"A deep-pocketed nonprofit organization founded by conservative activist Leonard A. Leo gave away $182.7 million in a year’s time, a new tax filing shows, demonstrating how aggressively it has worked behind the scenes to prop up other groups and causes on the right."
The Price | A week of accountability brings needed cheer in a gloomy world, lord knows we need it.
Tucker and the 1st. I think our legal and cultural attitudes need to address lying that is getting people killed.
Also Thomas is the product of a deliberate process to develop and install corrupt judges. I hope this is a topic within the legal profession because its existence is madness.
Did anyone notice that the Garda Representative Association said this yesterday?
"The news that any member would face the threat of criminal charges for any actions while carrying out their duty for the protection of the public has come as a shock and is extremely concerning for our members"
The amd guy says that "the ally is an inflection point for portable gaming" how many blow jobs did he get to avoid mentioning the Steam Deck that went live more than a year ago ? #rogally#corruption#amd
Harlan Crow didn’t only give hundreds of thousands of dollars to a Supreme Court Justice… he also gave over $450,000 to Republicans sitting on the Judiciary Committee that oversees the courts.
Of course they don’t want to subpoena Harlan Crow.
Nine republican senators (All On Judiciary) got checks from Harlan Crow
Collectively, they've accepted nearly half a million dollars in #campaign cash from #Crow since the turn of the century, all downplay conflicts of interest & defend Clarence Thomas.
I'm pretty sure wire fraud, money laundering, theft of public funds, and making false statements to Congress constitutes a "breach of decorum."
But instead of expelling George Santos from the US House of Representatives, Speaker Kevin McCarthy said, "like every American, Santos will have his day in court."
You know who didn't have their day in court? Zooey Zephyr and The Tennessee Three.
For people still on the “Democrats suck at messaging train”, please read this article. Dan Pfeiffer knows more than you.
Then look at the fact that CNN is giving Donald Trump a huge platform. Then look at how the legacy media carries Republican messaging around every day. On the economy, on crime, on human rights.
@qkslvrwolf@TonyStark It's also worth thinking about the value of watching CNN, which airs ads of totalitarian antidemocratic regimes like Qatar, United Arab Emirates, Erdoganistan, Saudi Arabia (Trump's golf buddies) & other dictatorships.
"The lesson we are learning from the new scandals at the high court go way beyond 'ethics' reform. This is no longer an ethics problem. This is a democracy reform problem, and it signals first and foremost an effort to deform democracy to serve the Harlan Crows and the Leonard Leos of the world."
