Attacking Black people, preparing to overturn Gay marriage nationally.

I hate it when they do all the things that some of us predict that they will do, Black people are in very serious danger in this country right now. We all have to figure out how to protect each other.

Be careful though, piece of shit is trying to start civil unrest even yes a civil war because he has to get his base to stop talking about what he and Epstein did together before Epstein was murdered.

Soon another major distraction will of course be the announcement that because of something Biden did Social Security Medicare monies are depleted more than they thought.

But right now we have to protect our fellow Americans.

I posted it on my Facebook but if I use that link it’ll go to Facebook, I should’ve googled it and put the link here but you can do that pretty easily.

....is involved in a case attempting to overturn Obergefell v. Hodges. Alito and Thomas already think the case needs revisiting. If they succeed they will allow challenges to Griswold v. Connecticut: the right to use birth control.

where a 60-year friendship is ending because former best friend has become a trump-humper. I needed the background that you provided.

In addition to numerous veteran, healthcare, and financial situations in her family, her third son is a married midage gay business owner. To this day, I cannot fathom what there is about trump that could possibly appeal to them and their family dynamics, and their support of trump has torn us apart. I needed to clarify my final bullet-point of my query to her, and needed to be accurate.

....birth control, possibly women's right to vote, no-fault divorce and possibly mixed-race marriage. They want women home birthing babies even though it takes 2 paychecks to support a family since Reagan's term.

That's part of Project 2025, too, and the idea is being covered now. Over the weekend, Hegspeth retweeted a Christian White Nationalist calling for it.

Hillary also tweeted about it.

I'm not trying to take away from your argument. But this issue is real, too, so I just wanted to add it TO that argument.

Thanks.

And reminding me about this yes.

It is very frustrating when for instance some of us came on here and said that of course the Supreme Court will overturn Roe versus Wade and of course the Supreme Court would give the piece of shit immunity and many yelled back at us how no way that’s not gonna happen we didn’t know what we were talking about blah blah blah

And now it’s Women’s right to vote, next it will be anyone with Brown skin. Or they just won’t bother with fucking voting at all anymore like the piece of shit himself said was going to happen.


Hell no you are not taking away from my argument in fact I am grateful that Women are still willing to put up with everything fucking white men are doing to them, including just continuing to talk to us, I don’t know if I would.

I can see many of our Black leaders in grave danger from now on,
not just Black people generally.

As for gay marriage, that was always going to be on the docket,
and now it is.
