They are feeling rather like they can do anything they want, aren't they?


That's right, "You, single mother there...yes you, the one we forced to have your rapist's child...We would like to inform you that we do not appreciate paying a single dime for your child's education and we definitely will not be paying for early education. You have to work, you say? Well, yes you absolutely should! Childcare and having your child learn while you go to that job? No, no, no. We're not paying for that either. Nope, you figure it out. Yes, yes ma'am, I do call myself pro-life, but really I want you and your child to suffer and you better pick yourself up by your bootstraps."

Excerpt from his campaign site: Let that last word sink in.

He has appeared repeatedly on Fox News with Tucker Carlson and Laura Ingram, OAN, and also on podcast with Michelle Malkin. Draz is sought out for his consistent leadership and ability to fight against the attacks on our freedoms......

Huge Twitter thread on situation concering abortion in US.


It's a grim read.

Just a reminder: because of non-proportional representation and demographics: in order to break the filibuster and overcome the R+6-7 bias in the Senate, Democrats would need to win 3 straight elections by 19 points to make abortion legal nationally.

Dark thoughts today. When I read of their displeasure at protesting outside Kavenaugh's house, my first thought was they don't like it because his home is private and he owns it. Obviously, five justices have decided that our bodies are owned by the state (or to be more blunt, Republicans) and not private so I thought, "Ok, let's burn your house to the ground." just as you have done with our rights to our own bodies.

This articulates what is going through my mind, where I want to get better weapons, and if we can get one, even getting a gun [and my view on guns is a lot like Hawkeye Pierce's. Not a fan, but this is really a declaration of war.

Yeah. I thought I was angry before, but I've gotten to that white hot, calm anger that is -not- good. I'm prolly going to eventually get into a fight with my mom about this - for some damn reason, for the first time in 78 years, she's actually decided she's an independent instead of a RINO [she used to vote in rep primaries as a spoiler vote, and because where she's lived for 40 years is pretty red [and is MTG's district, was Newt's district too....]

Though I am to the point of 'screw karmic backlash, I'mma just going to curse the lot of them'.

Right-wing Twitter is obsessed with the Supreme Court leak — but there's a human cost - Salon.com

Conservatives on Twitter are naming alleged leakers on flimsy evidence, damaging their careers

www.salon.com

With last week's leak of the draft Supreme Court decision effectively overturning Roe v. Wade, the public reaction — especially on social media — has been swift and impassioned. On one side, it has been substantive: women sharing their abortion stories and pleading for bodily autonomy, and doctors expressing concern about potential criminal penalties for performing the procedure. On the other side, including conservative #LawTwitter, it has been entirely consumed by the leak — and specifically by the identity of the leaker.

There have been several Twitter threads, viewed by millions of eyes, purporting to suggest (but allegedly not to "dox") the identity of the leaker. The authors of these threads have been predominantly conservative, middle-aged white men, many with law degrees. They have been retweeted by popular voices supportive of Donald Trump, with large MAGA followings. They have (mostly) named female clerks and male clerks of color, included their pictures, their full names and their educational histories. The evidence offered includes the topic of a clerk's master's thesis, where the individual went to school and their major and — it seems — their personal identities as nonwhite and/or female. Most of the threads have included legalistic caveats that they are not intended as accusations and that they are effectively researched speculation. The clerks identified in their widely read threads are those who work for the court's three "liberal" justices.

To call this attenuated would be generous.

This has to be satire. Nobody could be that blind to the sheer irony of that statement.

I had a hard time looking her up, but her most recent posts on twitter come off as someone who is sarcastic or satirical, my money* might be more towards sarcasm - bitter AF sarcasm.

Well, if Roe v. Wade is truely dead... seems reasonable to me the next law passed should be "Alimony and Child support begin at conception."

And set up a national registry of every man's DNA, so that rape cases will be solved quickly and parentage disputes won't languish due to uncertainty.

It's only fair right? It's all about protecting the children right? If a fetus's life is more important than a woman's... then it's more important than the life of the man who put it there.
