And if this is the face of the Democratic Party in 2025 - a stern senior scolding her party for not working with rabid MAGA forces hellbent on destroying America - we are royally f*cked. I say that as a septuagenarian fed up with the craven gerontological accommodation of fascism.

We cannot depend on the courts in 2025, but when they stand and deliver thus, they're invaluable.

3) Publicly bearing witness to her religious tenets, she's the embodiment of today's evangelical fanatics: narrow, ignorant, vicious, egomaniacal, their practices 180 degrees from the teachings of the savior they profess to love.|

2) One glance at this stern puss - a visage that makes King's Annie Wilkes look like Taylor Swift - and you know she means business, mean business.

1) Today SCOTUS takes up the personal grievances of this charming 4-time bride, a gal both offended by marriage equality and desperate to have her fine of $100k plus $260k in legal fees overturned by rabid theocrats Thomas, Barrett, and Alito, hellbent on morphing America into Gilead.

This is why you dare not begin an argument with your MAGA aunt or uncle at Thanksgiving dinner. To paraphrase David Hare, their heads are so far up their fundaments, all you can see are the soles of their feet.

"Hurry! Get out before the buses stop charging and the rents come down! I just passed a hysterical woman shouting 'Child care is free, child care is free' and had to be slapped back into sanity! Only temporary! She's now in Bellevue in a padded cell!"
