Dems came out swinging today. Make sure people see this.

We are not going to sit around while you go ahead and desecrate our constitution, or you look at the laws that have been passed into law and say, never mind, we'll just ignore that.

This post & the thread of highly informed replies to this has made my day..
It’s been weeks now since I first learned about the Suffrajitsu, the elite group of martial arts trained women who protected Emily Pankhurst at public appearances, standing intimidatingly like the Security of the First World round Chuck D, and I’ve still not seen a TV series about them. Ridiculous.
