(83,746 posts)Me too. If they are worried and showing it then I am terrified.
All I can say is I hope this means they ALL will stand up for us.

(83,746 posts)I read an article the other day. Whites are dying at a faster rate than POC and procreating less...
They so badly want to stay white in America...what is next...breeding farms?
bravenak
(34,648 posts)Fuck them, i'm not having it.
sheshe2
(83,746 posts)Oh wait, they need slaves as well. That would be you. No wonder they want to get rid of PP and a woman's right to her body. No birth control...no abortions, got it. Men rule.
No wonder the justices are horrified.
Love you.

(13,859 posts)The Supreme Court is one of the major institutions of checks and balances. Will they step up and stop this demagogue?

(83,746 posts)They are our last hope. The new AG will not stand for any of us.

(47,209 posts)Jesus. They look as pained as SCOTUS. May they all stand up for us against an insane man. They must....we have no one else.
Well, we have Obama in the background with lawyers trying to fix things as well. This year will be unprecedented. I hope we will survive.
Luv ya...

(268,943 posts)I have not watched one discussion today,
I cleaned our bathroom from top to bottom, then washed all our brushes and combs and finally our sneakers.
After just five or so minutes of the Con, cleanliness suddenly felt very important.

SDJay
