I’m once again reminded of all the people who accused us of “fear mongering” about the Supreme Court in 2016.

🚨By a 6–3 vote, the Supreme Court ALLOWS states to defund Planned Parenthood, holding that Medicaid does not give patients a right to obtain care from its providers. All three liberals dissent. www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

I was told in 2016 I was being hyperbolic. A few years later I was told by a queer disabled now-former friend not to and I quote "get my panties in a twist" because Roe was settled law. I think about that a lot as his communities are hurt by this SCOTUS.

The decision itself breaks my heart on so many levels, particularly knowing how many decades of harm it will do. Watching a certain faction try and blame this on Dems who literally screamed about this coming almost breaks my soul.🍸

I was told Planned Parenthood is the establishment.

Remember when Ginsberg refused to retire to allow Obama to pick her replacement. Sure am glad she was so self-righteous in her "who are you going to get that's better than me" statement.

It wasn't about someone better, it was about someone that could just at least keep the score close.

SCOTUS, DJT, Cabinet, Congress, MAGA etc. are evil & cruel.
Evil" & "cruel" are describing actions or people characterized by wickedness, maliciousness, and a lack of empathy. I "Evil" often implies a deeper moral depravity, while "cruel" focuses on infliction of pain or suffering.

And all those who told us who read project 2025 no he won’t do it. People I know are now whinning about various things they have undone and I remind them I tried telling you but you refused to listen and continued going to your parties, vacations,out to eat etc….

gusseford.bsky.social•3 days ago

Yes. And I'm reminded how many said the Citizens United decision wouldn't have any negative consequences.....

wayofthelotus.bsky.social•3 days ago

Wasn't it Alito who shook his head "no" and got all pissy when Obama, at the State of the Union, pointed out how bad Citizens United would be for the country?

Over fifty percent of their care is in rural areas that are underserved (or unserved); 1 in 3 women get healthcare from PP.

They don't just want no nationalised healthcare, they want to actual healthcare at all

The Court made a mockery of justice. I returned the favor.

This one, for example.

Bernie Sanders subsequently made her his National Press Secretary.

It’s even worse. It essentially allows a State to violate any Medicare Requirements set out by Congress as long as the Federal Executive (Trump) agrees and simply fails to hold States to what is required. Get ready for the wholesale gutting of Medicare!

I'm sharing this because I do not want America to become a Dictatorship!

I'm scared for all Americans so we must help as many of them as we can.

For Immigrants are people and Trans Rights are Human Rights.

Snatching people off the streets is illegal and immoral!

And "fear mongering" about deportations, abortions, concentration camps, etc.

alpha-aurora.bsky.social•2 days ago

Fuck this court, fuck Roberts, fuck Gorsuck, fuck corny-Bartlett, fuck Alito, fuck fat Thomas, fuck Gallagher or what ever that gang raper called himself. Fuck all these traitors

What I really need right now is the portal to the alternate timeline where Clinton won in 2016. Anyone know where that is?

charlesgaba.com•3 days ago

Well, let's be realistic: In a scenario where Hillary received ~80,000 more votes in MI/PA/WI and eked out a win, the odds are the House & Senate results would've been virtually identical, meaning Dems would still have been down 52/48 in the Senate.

Scalia's open seat would remain open...

charlesgaba.com•3 days ago

...and McConnell/GOP were dead set on blocking ANY SCOTUS nominations by Hillary. So, it would've presumably remained 4-4 deadlocked until RBG passed away in Sept. 2020.

Now don't confuse people about the power of Swing States. It will get you nowhere. Ask me how I know

Bernie told us Planned Parenthood was “the establishment” in 2016.

bsfromky.bsky.social•3 days ago

Ok but it looks like he was calling them and their money the Democratic establishment which isn’t inconsistent with issues with Dems right now

japulver.bsky.social•3 days ago

He insinuated the only reason PP had endorsed Hillary over him in the primary was bc they were part of the Dem establishment therefore in shady cahoots. In reality Hillary had always been a fearless champion of women’s rights & treated choice like a main issue, not a “distracting special interest”.

I believe this is a lie.

Nope. He said it. https://www.politico.com/story/2016/01/planned-parenthood-bernie-sanders-218026

alicided.bsky.social•3 days ago

Ok! I am corrected, thank you.

The road to hell is paved with people telling you that you're overreacting and hysterical
