So now our kids and grandkids will have less civil rights than the day they were born

Mr Biden said he did not want to make the supremes a political football. As all of us I’m hoping for a trifecta on November third. Expand the supremes, what would be awesome is the trump crime family. Once convicted and imprisoned by SDNY can appeal their sentences to a Biden Supreme Court.

Once people have had rights and freedoms, and tasted them, taking them away never works.
I believe things will slowly improve after Joe is sworn in. Joe is a smart and very decent guy,
but he's not especially charismatic. But he will make the right appointments to positions.
trump's people were appointed so they could destroy the office they held. Barr at DOJ. DeJoy at
Postmaster General, DeVos at Education and on and on. Don't forget Rick Perry at Energy,
one of the departments he wanted to abolish.
History progresses, and will continue to progress, regardless of puny efforts by dumb men
to stand in it's way.

If she undoes Roe v Wade or Lawrence v Texas, then I would never vote to convict a woman seeking an abortion, an abortion provider, or a gay person.
