Sounds like the goose steppers on the Amnerikkkan Supreme Court want to revisit legalized gay marriage. How do you suppose they'll rationalize exceptions for Scott Bessent and Peter Thiel? #LGBTQ+

US Supreme Court sets date to consider case that could undo marriage equality

Supreme Court justices will meet to discuss whether to take on a case challenging same-sex marriage rights on November 7. Here's what we know so far.

It is impossible to imagine people allowing this to go on (or even participating in it within the government) if he was ordering the murder without any process of French citizens or Brits or Australians on boats no matter what they were alleged to be doing.

Trump: "I don't think we're necessarily going to ask for a declaration of war, I think we're just gonna kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. We're going to kill them. They're going to be, like dead."

Looking forward to the next Democratic president just doing stuff. Build that high speed train right through Texas. Don't ask, just do. Presidents have the right to do that.

Is there a reason the press exists? If they're just going to stand there recording this without pushback, they are just legitimizing bs.

Can you imagine the national conniption that would have occurred if Obama or Biden had bulldozed the White House? It would have been on a loop on cable news for weeks. Trump may be unpopular, but the press is acting like he's just changing the drapes or something.

I found it pretty charming to learn that after Roger Taney died, sitting lawmakers called his death a "victory for liberty and the Constitution," suggested that he was probably burning in hell, and joked (?) that they'd rather hang him in effigy than do literally anything to honor his memory

Roger Taney’s Contemporaries Hated Him As Much As You Probably Do

Ordinarily, members of Congress do not publicly suggest that recently deceased Supreme Court justices are burning in hell. But Roger Taney was no ordinary Supreme Court justice.

They will blame Democrats. Just as they credit Trump for Democratic infrastructure programs that he's slapped his name on. There's no cognitive dissonance when you're in a cult because you're hard-wired to believe whatever dribbles out of Dear Leader's lips.

Why are masked goons being allowed to do this? I've seen videos of ICE assaulting protestors. The mayors and other elected representatives are supposed to stand up for their people, not cave to these paramilitary goons.
