TWO YEARS AGO TODAY at around now

Six fascists on the US Supreme Court upheld a Mississippi anti-abortion law

Five fascists on the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade

No one petitioned to do the latter

WOMEN’S RIGHTS ARE DECIMATED.

What are we doing about it?

@popcornreel and a little more than a decade later Ronald Reagan would officially launch his campaign for President from that area--loudly signaling that he and his vision for the Republican Party was saturated in racial violence.

@popcornreel it's amazing how much I liked the Showtime Lakers compared to how much I've hated them over the years.

I'm from Sacramento, so it fits.

But now they're out here playing 3D chess trying to make people hate them even more.

@philip_cardella If the Lakers draft Bronny in the first round, the transformation to joke franchise will be complete.

From PRESUMED INNOCENT (1990)

GRETA SCACCHI: “Why don’t you fire her?”

HARRISON FORD: “Civil servants. They’re here forever.”

Under Project 2025–Orange Felon34 will fire ALL civil servants in federal government. Black people are disproportionately represented in civil service.

This week’s episode of “Last Week Tonight” has a big segment about Project 2025. I knew it would be bad, but hearing specifics… woo boy. I prefer government workers who know how to do their job. I’m just funny like that.

Some in U.S. are so busy working 3 jobs and to the bone that the only democracy they worry about is the food they can put on their table. That’s democracy to them. One challenge @JoeBiden must address is the working poor and their daily struggles. Democracy message isn’t on their radar.

@popcornreel ☝️💯

Drives me nuts when people who have time to be on here at all hours get mad that people with three jobs and a pending eviction notice because they couldn't afford a 40% rent increase don't feel like the economy is working for them.

As a YouTube comment read: “this is no longer about Trump’s character. It’s about ours.”

I’ve said this previously—specifically that these elections really come down to whether people who vote for someone have decency and morality in their hearts.

U.S. Presidents appoint federal and U.S. Supreme Court justices

These are positions that impact your life and people’s lives over GENERATIONS

In states legislatures can override a governor’s veto. So life can depend on if you have Rep or Dem state legislatures
