They were so arrogant, so sure of themselves, so indignant when they attacked women.

[fightforfreedom]

The Republicans on the Supreme Court put themselves, their personnel beliefs above everyone else. Look what it has gotten them.

Women organizing across the country. Women in record numbers registering to vote. The Republican Party is in turmoil trying to defend themselves for attacking women. The Republican Party is completely fractured. They should have been in great shape when it comes the November elections. Now the Democrats may hold the Senate and the House.

I have said it many times, extremism always destroys itself in the end.

Alito and Thomas can smirk all they want, they can piss and moan all they want. They can't change the fact they were wrong and they will find out how wrong this November and future elections. Women are not going to forget.

1. The GOP never wanted actual action on Roe.

It was a perfect one issue voter topic. The true believers started getting elected and taking, frankly, creative measures towards it. It grew within in them until they couldn’t stop it. The pro lifers wanted action for all their years of money and effort. Big money got involved and the GOP got what they never wanted.

[fightforfreedom]

3. The extremists in the Republican Party got what they wanted.

Now the Party is in deep shit. The extremists in the Party will continue to become more extreme and harm the party further.

[Marthe48]

17. Thinking of extremism

I don't remember extremists shoving pro-choice down our throats back then. There weren't people shooting pro-life spokesmen, or trying to silence schaffley, or picketing churches.

I remember women burning their bras and men burning their draft cards, but that would stick out better, especially since any pro-choice protests didn't make the national news.

[Farmer-Rick]

11. Exactly

It was a get out the vote issue. It really wasn't supposed to happen.

Now they lost a really good get voters to the polls issue. All they can do now is promise to double down. They could put on the ballot taking away birth control, a hard one because even GOPers like sex. Taking away a woman's right to vote. Again a hard one because even some women vote for GOPers. They will just have to get even more extreme.

14. Pro-Life

Required in primaries or get off the stage. In the general, the pro-lifers are in your back pocket. No need to expend any resources on them other than to mention that your are pro-life and that’s it.

[HUAJIAO]

15. It never was even about abortion, rather just the fascist takeover of the USofA.

Abortion was just a lab tested issue that repubs discovered would work as a foil and get out stupid voters.
Same with gunz!

[Probatim]

25. Like an unwanted child they were forced to deliver?

I think that's what I read?

[90-percent]

27. pro lifers is not an accurate term

should be pro birthers, because, after you're born, you're ON YOUR OWN!

With thanks to the late Molly Ivans.

32. Women must stand firm at the polls. Help other women stand their ground from RW harassers. nt

[Ferrets are Cool]

33. I said that for 1000 years. That is why I was so SHOCKED

when they stupidly removed that voting issue from their side of the equation.

[Justice matters.]

2. Yep. And once there (House + Senate): Expand the USSC to 13 or more.

ENOUGH OF THAT UNDEMOCRATIC, FASCIST MINORITY RULE!


Apologies for caps, but we want a democratic state, not a fascist one. So tired of it.

[secondwind]

4. I agree, but hasn't Biden already said he would not

expand the Court? Sure hope I’m wrong!!

[ancianita]

9. This is just his opinion. If a majority Democratic congress wants votes for it, he'll sign on.

Because it's not his constitutional call to make.

[Justice matters.]

18. For saving democracy, everyone can change his/her mind.

Let's pressure V-P Kamala Harris to convince him (when we'll have the votes).

GOTV FOR ROEVEMBER

[BlueSky3]

5. Every "not good" thing

contains within it the seeds of its own destruction. (Or something like that). The question is, why does it take so long for those seeds to flower?

[Beartracks]

7. In the case of rightwing GOP, it's an invasive weed...

... and a non-native species.

Definitely not native to a democratic republic. Maybe it's Russian?

6. I am reminded of Greek drama.

Hubris is always punished.
Bring on the Furies.

8. Kind of like Putin when he thought he could take Ukraine in a 3-day "cakewalk".

[Bucky]

10. From your subject line I didn't know if you were talking about Republicans, Russians, or Iranians

[Hermit-The-Prog]

29. Republicans, Pootineers, Taliban, Islamic Republic of Iran, Nazis, NatCs -- all same, same.

[Timeflyer]

12. Get out in public and march Oct. 7-9 2022 around the country, and of course vote DEM.

[vlyons]

13. republicans don't care about the well-being of people

They care only about amassing as much money as possible. If they could reinstitute slavery and feudalism, they most certainly would. They already do their damnedest to keep slave wages in place. And so they resort to fear-mongering about non-whites and non-Christians to keep the working classes voting against their own interests. Still playing the old anti-socialism and anti-communism cards. Calling us extremist radicals.

Did you know that Canada does not allow corporate campaign contributions. Citizens are limited to $1675 per candidate. We have to get rid of these obscene dark money PACs.

Wake up Americans!

[SouthernDem4ever]

30. THIS!!

well said

[Brainfodder]

16. This is something not for the federal govt, not for the state govt, not for the preacher, not for...

It is for you the would be parents, and only you?

Abortion is just a tool, condoms have what a 7% failure rate?

Some of us are super cranked on sexual desires and it is probably people you know, because we are so up tight in this country, check yourself, I am onto to us!

People hate condoms, people lie about politics, you think the mega-handsome silk shirt wearing perfecto in every physical trait super suave guy you just met at a bar could be the one, but you need few test drives to be sure?

Check yourself, and just marvel at the fact there is usually one guy exactly like that in every busy bar!

I haven't been to a bar in 10 years+ YMMV but yeah males are only reason bars exist!



If you can pull off a nonchalant: "Sir/Mame, have you checked yourself lately, things have changed with that clear espionage issue and agents/spies overseas happen to die while TFG was president or since, and that is far too coincidental to be ignored! Your sources are lying to you, and even trained you to think any democrat is evil and a liar, so catch 22 you are, good luck!

I haven't been out and about since March 2020 much at all, like 99% home or at relatives house, but I keep inventing less caustic less gaslighting, less argumentative phrases to use to at least plant a seed in their weary heads, I mean it has to be exhausting dodging all the BS out there on him, from their perspective?

The outlier blasting by the media as normal, beyond puke stage tired of that rhetoric.

[Heather MC]

19. No man, no woman, no one else but the birthing parent has a right to decide when they push

Because only the birthing parent, puts their life on the line to bring life into this world.

And there is not one person alive that has a right to decide when I put my life on the line just the way no 1 else has a right to decide when you or our society and the people who live in it decide to put their life on the line.

And that should be the only thing republicans are hearing from democrats

They ain't their business

[ificandream]

20. The Repughs will rail about the mobilizing of the anti-abortion forces ...

... but it's their own damn fault.

[RainCaster]

21. A shame women can't vote for SCOTUS

We know that there would be a big turnover if so.

[Viz]

22. Time to build new parties.....the GOP goes the way of the whigs

Rank Choice Voting instituted at every level will transform our current no win 2 party system into a coalition of parties, each focused on an issue, that have to come together to govern in the true interest of We The People. Yes We Can. Also democracy vouchers given to every voter to support individual candidates they choose. Money Out- Voters In.

[czarjak]

23. Recessions. Record Deficits. Racism. The Three R's. Regret never had chance.

[Cozmo]

24. Thanks to the SC we can look forward to Roevember!

[Crunchy Frog]

26. I thought this post was going to be about Iran.

We'd better fight to keep our society from getting to that point.

[Ford_Prefect]

28. "A riot is an ugly thing..."

Above all they should be very careful what they wish for.

[Joinfortmill]

31. Women will vote in huge numbers over this. Big mistake, big!
