I'm spitting mad ... no room to be silent on this ...

Rachel, I am so with you and so spitting mad as well.  I can surly call Mistah Harris and give a piece of my angry mind on this.  The problem is, I'll just get back something like, "Idiot Dems; crazed Liberal; aggressive Progressive; stupid Socialist;  Wokeism spreader of lies; or any number of names.  These names serve to denigrate those of US who are trying to make things Better for all of US and for women.  This group, these leaders, these Party boys and girls use this to preserve the status quo of systemic racism and promote (put forward) policies that are an assault to equality, equity, and fairness.  We all need to ask ourselves WHO supports these assaults that compromise all of US.  We all need to really listen to WHO they support and WHAT they support and HOW they do things when we enter the VOTING box.

I say this, and then it happens over and over that these particular leaders get voted in (thank goodness for the votes in Wisconsin and Chicago yesterday!!!).  Yet, look what happened in the last election.  Folks vote in a liar and a person who misrepresented himself and although the Republican Jewish Coalition (how that's a thing really amazes me!) denounced him.  The head of that coalition stated that he should, "remain in the Senate because it is a place holder for the Republicans".  And so it goes and no one can do anything about that and this insanity goes on and on. 

Mad?  I am stock raving mad at how these people, this Party, keeps getting a foothold in this Country and forces all of US to adopt their values and their beliefs onto all of US! 

Maybe folks will one day take heed to the lunacy of these leaders and those boys and girls supporting this Party's agenda and VOTE responsibly?  Maybe if we all start listening to what they say and what they do we can VOTE for those who speak about: CARE (for all of US); FAIRNESS (for a better life); EQUALITY (for ALL); EQUITY (for the marginalized among US) ; and PROTECTION FROM HARM (ban automatic assault weapons and support Roe v. Wade).

As it looks now, SCOTUS isn't going to do that.  Look who takes up all the breathing room in that court room spewing their Party values and beliefs of: LOYALTY (to their agenda and each other like keeping a liar and a charlatan in office for a 'place holder', etc...); PATRIOTISM (their brand of it, and readings from the Constitution that uphold their agenda, beliefs, and values, etc...); RESPECT TO AUTHORITY (who they deem is the authority on matters, people kill people not guns, etc...); and MORAL PURITY (what keeps systemic racism operational in this Country, death penalties to women seeking abortion, and has given the green light to groups like the Proud Boys, etc...)!...

Yup, we have got some work to do in this Country if we want a better way of life! It's really alarming that we actually have to fight for that! 

Thank you for speaking out! This is horrific!

👏👏👏👏 thank you. I must join you. I’m tired of being told I’m negative, because the absurd and relentless assault on our rights and our bodies for the continued benefit and fantasies of a monied and empowered old guard minority of (mostly) men of agenda and privilege.

We must speak up. We must say NO. We must remember our history and how the gains that were made on our behalf… were made and won. And we must, like them, pay it forward.
