Gilead - Phase One Started

Phase 1 completed: overturn Roe v Wade
Phase 2 commenced: Justice Thomas suggests that contraception and same sex marriage are next

Welcome to Gilead

The only that matters at this point, is making sure the GOP does not gain control of either house. Then appoint 5 new Justices, otherwise nothing matters, as every single issue will be decided by a Supreme Court that does NOT represent the people.

The turn towards a non-secular Nation by a Christian Fundamentalist minority began with the "Moral Majority" back in the days of Reagan. I find it scary how much power they have acquired in so short a time. It is well past time for the SCOTUS to be put to the same electoral process as the House and the Senate. These lifetime appointments will be the ruin of our Nation.

@spjennifer Not if the Democrats kept both Houses, and loaded up the Court. This is a must.

@Northwest A lot will depend on this, perhaps women will lead a massive revolt against the Repugs this time around? Wishful thinking I know but hope it happens!

@spjennifer We all need to wake up and focus on what WILL happen if the GOP gains control of both houses.

@Northwest You're preaching to the choir but unless the Dems begin to make it loud and clear exactly where this is going, I don't know if it will have much impact...

@spjennifer I agree. The President needs to act now. State clearly that he's not running for office in 2024, and the party needs to introduce another candidate, not Kamala Harris, as a credible alternate.

The party's left needs to also take a vacation, and when they get back, join fucking reality. Now is NOT the time for theatricals. There will be nothing left to take a principled stand on, if the GOP takes both Houses, or even one House. The only solution now, is to stack up the Court. I am going to reach out to my representatives, even though one of them is part of the extreme left.
