Things to look forward to, next year at this time

- National Right to Abortion Care Act signed into law.
- Puerto Rico and Columbia on their way to becoming 51st and 52nd states.
- Supreme Court ethics regulations adopted, and four new justices nominated and awaiting confirmation.
- Assault weapons ban signed into law.
- Minimum wage raised to $20 per hour for all workers
- National wealth tax signed into law.
- Increased subsidies and incentives for electric vehicles and green sources of energy.
- Russia withdraws from Ukraine

I guess I'm dreaming, but all those things seem WELL within reach right now.

Twenty people gathered in the pickleball gym... I heard the news on the way there and broke it to them.

Here in Savannah:

I'm here to report the response: a massive sigh of relief. Followed by excitement.

So, I understand the love for Joe Biden... because I share it. He's been a great Senator, a great VP, and now a great President. And now I praise him for doing what he thinks will be best to save our country. He's a hero, candidate or not.

But judging from the MANY people I speak to in real life (I'm not one of those people who say "no talking politics!"... I bring it up constantly) Joe Biden was probably NOT going to win in November. And everybody in that gym thinks Harris is going to kick trump's ass. The one or two trump supporters in our group were pretty much gasping "aw fuck!".

For the first time in months I'm feeling excited.

KAMALA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There are sites that sell t-shirts with customer-requested messages

I have a nice one that simply says WOKE across my chest in giant letters.

I'm thinking about buying another....

Is this helpful?:

I DON'T VOTE FOR CONS

Giving a speech as president is an official act.

I'm fact, it happens all the time.

The motive behind giving the speech can not be used in any court.

Yes, I know I sound ridiculous.

My biggest takeaway... sad to say

Joe looked and sounded too old for the job. This was a disaster and I feel sick.

Why are Kagan, Sotomayor, and Jackson not calling out the other justices for delay?

They should be out in public... "it's not us, it's them."

Are they afraid of alienating their friends or something? THIS COUNTRY IS MORE IMPORTANT than their f**king happenstance friendships.

It would be an ethics violation, you say? When has this court ever operated by a code of ethics?

Big event in my life yesterday

I gave away my ironing board. Never again will I iron a shirt. I no longer care if my clothes are as wrinkled as my face.

Just remember this about these shit stain Supreme Court decisions rendered by shit people

Precedence means NOTHING. Every last one of these pieces of bullshit can be reversed if we gain both houses of Congress plus the presidency..... and EXPAND THE COURT.

The arguments against expanding the court grow more ludicrous with each crap decision.
