Asking everyone out there to vote blue and to think about the years ahead of their children and grandchildren or a woman who has to put up with this crap of Republicans telling them they can't make their own decisions about their bodies but that Republicans are making decisions about their bodies. Fuck this.

I was confused about this ruling yesterday so I was hoping a reputable source would explain it. Makes sense.

I couldn’t be more glad that Black voters actually have a chance at better representation because that’s what everyone deserves.

We still need to keep our eyes on the courts and vote wisely for Democrats. We don’t need any more Republican-appointed judges gutting the Voting Rights Act.

I came across someone saying they were proud of all the protesting they did when they were younger and that’s fine.

Anyway, one of the things they listed was being proud of stopping America from going into nuclear power and let me just share that this attitude and movement set us back pretty far on clean power and it’s good to look into why. 1/2

Trying to follow me while promoting a murder cult on your front page is an auto block.

Weirdos.

It’s hard work to get ballot measures going and especially hard in a state controlled by Republicans. The organizers doing this are trying as hard as they can to protect the right to an abortion.

Here’s their website: https://moconstitutionalfreedom.org

Consider getting involved or supporting them, especially if things are safe in your state.

You may or may not want to waste 3 minutes of your life listening to Susan Sarandon and while I agree with her on points like people suffering unjustly is horrible (although I try to care about all of them, not just one segment), statements claiming one doesn’t need their family who abandoned them (not even sure that’s happening) and “we’re your family” are statements cult leaders make while brainwashing folks.

I kind of hate to quote toot a quote toot but on top of Karoli’s good points, it’s not the “same people.” It’s actually different people. Take a look at Trump’s Cabinet for one or Trump’s federal judicial picks. Come on, people.

The lesser evil argument is weird to me, anyway. I never make it. But if I did think it was a good way to think about it logically, people rooting for the more evil in that case (Trump for the people who are bad at context) are bizarre.

I just saw a comment to a mutual that just straight up said “Nothing Joe Biden ever does will ever be enough to get my vote" and then expressed surprise that Biden isn't gunning for their vote.

There are a few people who run for office that I am continually inspired by. Malcolm Kenyatta is one. Now he is PA’s Democratic candidate for auditor general. Maybe auditor general sounds boring but if you listen to him, it suddenly sounds really cool.

Malcolm talks about accountability, answering to the people, and not to corporate dollars. Keep him in mind as someone to help get out the vote for.

Trump and Republicans get the blame for this. This ruling would have been unconstitutional under Roe, but Trump is proud that he stacked SCOTUS with anti-abortion justices who overturned it. There are many effects of losing those protections, and this is one of them.

As always, don’t listen to what they say, watch what they do. #AbortionRights

I’m not sure where I’ll be watching election coverage right now but it sure as fuck won’t be anywhere foolish enough to have Ronna McDaniel on as a commenter or analyst or whatever they’re going to call it.

Seriously, what the fuck? Why do the major news organizations hate truthful information and honest reporting so much?

What would Democrats have done about the SCOTUS? Uh, not appointed 3 right wing wacko justices after the 2016 election? Can’t believe I’m still getting this after 8 years.
