Yup
Crammed down Our throats
I just hope that when the bothsiderism press starts haranguing Biden about “Court Packing” he responds with “What do You think the Republicans are doing?”
If they acted responsibly and did what the American people wanted it would be one thing , but considering their behavior " All bets are off Everything is on the Table"

Even if a Pyrrhic victory, this nut-job must be exposed as the cult-leader loony she is. Let it hang around her neck for the rest of her career that she’s a freak-show religious nut-case who is guided by her cult beliefs instead of the law.

Yeah I’m not watching any of this. She could come dancing in with a troupe of drummers and decapitate a live chicken in a voodoo ceremony as part of her opening statement and not one Republican senator would say a word about it.

True Gramn said in his opening she would get all the GOP votes and no democratic ones

Question: as an upstanding woman with a deep faith in her religion, how does she feel
about having her name forever tied to a philandering sexually abusive man who has talked about how much he’d like to “date” his daughter and golfs on Sundays instead of going to church?

Strategy should be to make Republicans afraid of confirming this woman.

If the ACA is unconstitutional, then is Medicare not also unconstitutional?

The vast majority of “godly” people have cheerfully ignored all that for the sake of secular power. That was the third way Satan tempted Christ, actually. Oh well.

Nothing to see here. She most likely gets out of committee by the end of the week and gets a vote on the floor as scheduled. Bummer. Or some crazy shit happens to delay things. That’s not impossible. Either way, I’m avoiding it. Watching is not good for my health. Life is too short. Moving right along toward 11/3. #Unpack_the_courts

The vast majority of “godly” people that are in position of wealth and power do not really believe in god, they believe in their own righteousness.

A Herrenvolk (what Barrett and her ilk WANT) society’s viability collapses when the most disadvantaged members of the Herrenvolk are made to suffer in ways approximating those of the vilified “other”, “more inferior” groups.

In this case, it means the 0.01% putting the screws to non 0.01% people besides minorities.

“We’re all in this together”

I wish those words were actually understood.

If they were, the GOP would get, maybe 15-20% of the popular vote. That number represents the numbers of people who could actually be considered Upper Middle and above.
