@joycewhitevance.bsky.social Did the administration request en banc decision for this? Aren’t appeals usually just 3 judges? This report says that it was a 7-4 verdict?

Yes, she’s right…but not for the reasons she says…but because virtually everything maga stands for is built on lies, misinformation and propaganda…and no, I don’t want that in any social media.

#SistersInLaw would love to hear your thoughts on today’s terrible SC ruling—furthering their war on women and, more surprisingly, that they’d overlook an individual’s personal liberty in favor of states’ management of funds!

I took to posting on FB today after seeing ICE is at it again raiding businesses & rounding up undocumented workers in LA. These are human beings trying to build lives & support families & corporations are profiting from a lower-wage labor pool. Go after the source. www.facebook.com/share/p/12Da...

Our Govt tells us the “problem” is the undocumented worker!
But for the many corporations $PROFITING$ substantially from a workforce willing to work for lower wages, there would be no market for their labor.
Start fining companies $1M/day/undocumented worker & the market for their labor goes away

I can think of nothing more unconstitutional than indoctrinating children in religion from the time they enter grade school…in case Republicans need to check their latest copy of the constitution—it kind of says that there shall be no state sponsored religion…

How did we ever allow ourselves to get to a point where a “news network” (basically) indoctrinates its viewers into this “don’t believe anything they say—we’re the only ones telling you the truth?”
Leave it to Kayleigh and the Fox clowns, who paid $787.5M for lying to their own viewers, to demand a special counsel to probe why the man who cleaned up their boss’s mess… is old. He saved the country, and they want to indict him for aging. Give us a break, would you?

Recently, I’ve thought a lot about Ben Franklins prescient words— a Republic, if you can keep it.
It’s taken nearly 250 years but we now face the perfect storm of authoritarian Executive, extremely unbalanced Court unwilling to fairly call balls and strikes and an impotent Congressional majority.

It’s unconscionable & immoral that Republicans decide it’s ok to give billion$ of add’l dollars to the Defense budget and huge tax giveaways to the ultra-wealthy & then rationalize that, to pay for those expenses, we cut healthcare and food assistance for families who desperately need the help!

It’s my understanding Republicans are shutting out Democrats from any input into the federal budget negotiations. Last I checked, the govt spending affects all of us and not just the 50% who elected them?
How is that anything but authoritarian, anti-democratic?
