People who cry "what happened to the reasonable #GOP of days gone by?" --what the fuck are you smoking? Who do you think TRIED to get Bork on #SCOTUS and DID get #ClarenceThomas there? If the GOP could have struck down Roe, Affirmative Action, and all the rest in 1991 THEY WOULD HAVE DONE IT. THEY PLANNED TO, AND IT WAS NO SECRET.
Stop. This is the same #Republican party. They have been pure fucking evil since at least 1877.

The majority of Americans support #LGBTQ people, and rights. The majority is with us all. This is a strident, well-funded minority that has captured the Court and the #GOP.
The majority is with you / with us. This is far from over. #Scotus [illegitimate Supreme Court]

Former Trump staffer Mike Roman has cut a deal to cooperate with Special Counsel Jack Smith’s probe into ex-President Donald Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election. #News#GOP#Politics#USA#Trump#MAGA#Republicans
There is an anger building due to the #rightwing take over of the #courts & make no mistake it’s more than #scotus look up the blue card rule. Also due to failed #policereform & ongoing murder & abuse by #cops as well as upcoming #economic pressure from people being kicked off #medicaid lingering effects of #covid#studentloans coming due etc
We are in for trouble not t mention #gop locked state legislatures & draconian #abortion laws

Get out and vote, people. We will continue to see these small-minded, homophobic decisions unless we clean house. It will take a generation at least. I hope voters have the stamina and patience.

Maybe investigative journalists will finally unearth definitive proof of foreign #darkmoney flows from foreign authoritarian states into #GOP coffers?
