Same Shit, Different Century

...the creeping normalisation of what was formerly taboo...

Terroristic Trump and Spaffer Johnson embody the corrupt void that conservatives, on both sides of the pond, have been progressively settling into since the 1980’s at least. A two-man personification of all the vilest qualities of conservatism. At this point, they may not have yet reached critical mass Nazi, but it could not be clearer that they undoubtedly show characteristic far-right tendencies… and the biggest issue we face, as we battle to hold onto our democratic norms and principles, is the creeping normalisation of what was formerly taboo.

HOWEVER – there is hope my dear friends. The UK Supreme Court just put a stop to the shenanigans of the conservatives in their attempts to suspend democracy. Spaffer Johnson just got an upper cut! It looks like Ukraine is the tipping point for Impeachment. Terroristic Trump will be running scared forthwith. Good people are not standing by and letting the democracy stealers get away with it. Proof we can still change course and divert away from this new normal and the current drift of history repeating itself and the end result of this far-right nightmare rearing its ugly head.



Huzzah!

Watch him go, oh, oh, oh,

BUUUURRRRRNNNN!!!!

Breaking: Unanimous Judgement from the Supreme Court...BORIS GETS SPANKED

Court has concluded the case is about the limits of the power to advise the Queen
Parliamentary sovereignty and parliamentary accountability
Power to prorogue is limited by the constitution
If constitutional functions have been limited because of the proroguing of Parliament - if that is the effect - frustrating or preventing the ability of Parliament without reasonable justification.

Effects of shutting down Parliament on fundamentals for democracy were extreme.

UNLAWFUL, VOID AND OF NO EFFECT
REMEDIES = PROROGATION UNLAWFUL. PARLIAMENT HAS NOT BEEN PROROGUED IN LAW. THEY CAN TAKE IMMEDIATE STEPS FOR EACH HOUSE TO SIT

We are Feminists not only when it is comfortable

Being on DU tonight and a whole lot of posts and comments about Ivanka Trumps nipples. Are you fucking kidding me? Objectifying women's body parts because you disagree with their politics? Sounds very Republican to me.
She is nasty. She enablers her father. Her nipples or dress sense have fuck all to do that.
We are better than this.
