Lightfoot Tells Pride in The Park Crowd, 'F-- Clarence Thomas' for Roe v. Wade Opinion

On Monday, Taylor was the only alderperson contacted who said she understood why Lightfoot was so enraged by Thomas’ concurring opinion, she would make a profane public reference to the justice.

“I don’t know that I would have said it. But I understand how she feels. I understand her frustration and her being upset. If she didn’t cuss, I would be surprised … Take out that she’s the mayor. It’s her being human. She’s a grown woman who is entitled to her feelings,” Taylor said.

“I ain’t surprised that she said it. She understands that it’s like greed. They don’t stop at one set of people. It continues to go. And she is absolutely right. They are coming after gay marriage. I promise you they are. It’s next. Watch.”

presidents dont just march down to congress. that's not how this works.

like most people who have asked the question- what did tfg think was going to happen when he got to the capital?- i have no clue beyond WIN. likely declare martial law.

but the thing is, by tradition, the president goes to the capital by invitation ONLY.
you cant tell me that in 4 years, this was not explained to him like he was 3.

he knew this was an insane plan.
ftr, my highest hope is that he pleads insanity. that is a far more important convo for the country than criminal law and procedures.
and it would be great if that landed dr ronnie feelgood in brig for lying from the wh podium.

just found out that randy shilts is from my hometown.

did not know that. good article. worth the time.

Aurora Journalist Randy Shilts Helped Frame Debate About Gay Rights Movement

singin this one today after tossing and turning all night-

palm cards

so, today is election day here in illinois.
i've honestly been barely aware of this primary as there are almost no contests on the ballot.
so, i just pulled up my ward org's palm card.
i used to serve on the board, and i was always especially proud of our endorsement process. we held all day endorsement sessions for the candidates to which quite a few members showed up and voted, invited them to speak at our monthly meetings, and held meet and greets w the judges.
the board got together, and reviewed the judges, their bar ratings, shared what we learned at the meet and greet, and did a palm card.
i laid them out a few times, and proudly passed them out of the corner on election day.
they were often gratefully accepted.

so, take the palm card, thank the party member that gave it to you, and vote it. it's a vote of confidence in your local party. they'll appreciate it. a lot.

my guess about today's hearing.

the witness, cassidy hutchinson, has already testified about members of congress who asked for pardons.
i think today she will blow the whistle on the sale of pardons.

i've said many times that the number one reason i am glad i was born here

and not in ireland was that i wasnt subjected to the irish catholic church. i survived 12 yrs of catholic school (which actually was good all around, and they didnt infect me w that bullshit.) and i end up here.
up until the other day, i was very sad that i am unlikely to ever have grands, despite having 5 kids. not anymore.

overturning roe was always a trojan horse. it was rly about

stacking the courts for the rich.
follow the money.

when i saw the ads on my teevee for beer boy, i knew we were well and truly fucked.

so, when do the "unwed mother's homes" return? and

in what sector of the economy will they be enslaved?
laundries are pase. call centers?
