Brian McFadden for July 05, 2022

McFadden never fails to get WAY outside my box. Sometimes, as now, it resonates. Yep I can easily imagine this “court” ’s majority engaging in such fantasies to justify their dismemberment of our admittedly not-perfect social construct so as to replace it with chaos and state religion.

Chillingly true.

Can a fetus live outside of the body at age 6 weeks?

“Fourth of July Weekend Shootings” Americans are sick. (https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/local/9-dead-among-57-shot-in-fourth-of-july-weekend-shootings-in-chicago/2872736/)

Republicans continue to just make sh!t up to fit The Narrative. The Base believes all of it.

Susan B. Anthony said it best: “I distrust those people who know so well what God wants them to do, because I notice it always coincides with their own desires.”

Marginalized people aren’t real people so whatever befalls them is irrelevant … /s

Excellent, Brian!

what and get rid of his 1950s trophy wife, ha ha ha,

Love it, even though the Fetus’s creepy head veins give me the heebie-jeebies. (And, no, I’ve NEVER used THAT sentence before . . .)

Excellent work Brian!

Despite being in the minority, members of the SCOTUS, “Conservatives,” RWNJs, and white supremacists are attempting to drag this country back to their imaginary Jeffersonian agrarian idyl. The 1790 census (when Jefferson was Secretary of State), counted 5.3M Americans. Only white males owning 50 acres or more of land were permitted to vote, approximately 6% of the population. Free white men who did not own land, free white females, and slaves could not vote. In 1790 the American population was largely rural, making a living by farming. Our most recent census counted 332,403,650 Americans. Current estimates are that 83% of Americans live in urban areas. They do not work at farming. In pursuit of “small government,” the following are conservatives’ goals for their Jeffersonian America: 1. No women’s rights. 2. No civil rights for people of color, or for any other minority groups. 3. No immigration, other than Caucasians. 4. No labor unions. 5. No health insurance. 6. No legal recourse due to Republican-packed courts. 7. No social security. 8. No disability insurance. 9. No minimum wage. 10. No free and fair elections (ultimately, no elections). 11. Imposed state religion; government funding of religious schools. 12. Unregulated militias unchecked by Republican-packed courts. 13. No work on mitigating climate change; no environmental protections. 14. No free press. GOP politicians don’t care about the environment or mitigating climate change because they intend to stay permanently in office and use their money and power to take over remaining livable locations as environmental conditions worsen. Why do you people who support today’s GOP, Trump, and Trump wannabes think that you will come out winners under this regime?

Of course. The right rationalizes everything.

Is this justice a certain one from the Uncle Thomas Court or a generic one? He doesn’t look like Scalito or Garsuch, or Keganaugh.
