    You should be mad at RBG for not retiring when Obama was POTUS. Not Coney-Barrett

    Doesn't there need to be a reason for a POTUS to be impeached and haven't the Dems been down this useless rabbit hole before. It appears that Nancy learned from the last sham. If this was to happen Trump will win the POTUS again.

    “Faced with two plausible readings of a law, fact, or precedent, Barrett always seems to choose the harsher, stingier interpretation.

    Can job applicants sue employers whose policies have a disproportionately deleterious impact on older people? Barrett said no.

    Should courts halt the deportation of an immigrant who faced torture at home? Barrett said no.

    Should they protect refugees denied asylum on the basis of xenophobic prejudice? Barrett said no.

    Should they shield prisoners from unjustified violence by correctional officers? Barrett said no.

    Should minors be allowed to terminate a pregnancy without telling their parents if a judge has found that they’re mature enough to make the decision? Barrett said no.

    Should women be permitted to obtain an abortion upon discovering a severe fetal abnormality? Barrett said no.”


    Sounds like a hypocrite to me and she shouldn’t be anywhere near the Supreme Court. Practicing Catholic my ass...

    "Pro life" is inborn in every one of us.
    29 states including California, have the "fetal homicide" law.

    She said she would follow the laws on the books and not make up new laws. That's not pro life even if she believes in the sanctity of life.

    I don't want a woman on the Supreme Court. That is it. With their brittle bones and emotional irrational decisions? How will the country survive? Imagine if a case happens when she's on her cycle? The nation and Constitution will be in real trouble. We need people that understand their roles and know how to do their job rationally without emotions or ego getting in the way. Just like our President!

    I feel bad for her and her family because that is a real thing that is already happening. Not a fanciful fear mongering scare tactic designed to get people to riot and burn down their cities.

    You get fed scare tactics about migrants and Muslims etc. Do you riot?

    If you think it just takes "fear" to push people to riot, then I suggest examining yourself. You aren't desperate. I'm assuming you aren't living paycheck to paycheck. I'm assuming you don't get harrased routinely having your property such as your vehicle routinely searched because of a frame on your license plate so on and so forth.

    Honestly half the country having your mindset of not even attempting to listen to these neighborhoods and assuming they are playing victim is just going to have the country spiral downward.

    I under how rural Americans eventually resorted to Trump. The last 50 years has seen them median household income adjusted barely rise and median household debt adjusted skyrocket in that same time frame. This tightens wallets which leads to increased frustration which leads to increased tensions which leads to bad faith actors turning that tension and frustration towards migrants, Muslim, Mexicans, Blacks etc. Frustrated people are more willing to listen to more extremist rhetoric. On top of this you had major pharmaceutical companies wreck rural communties even more with the opioid crisis. Of course these people are going to be frustrated. That opens up opportunities for individuals like Trump or Bernie to express their populist message.

    Have to figure out how to reverse that trend. Have a little empathy for these neighborhoods. Don't assume all their frustration is manufactured by media.

    please fchowd, you are better than this.

    Do better, like when you accused me of having a plantation mindset wanting to own slaves.
