I think they're going by things they've said before.. we all know that's meaningless. I don't see any new statements from Grassley.
dude....calm down.
im not thinkin shit. im just posting whats online.
i already know Trump and the GOPs agenda for SCOTUS.
as u were.
They will try to re-introduce slavery
Yep and i'd say at least 30% of cacs will be fine with it too
You are underestimating white people.Yep and i'd say at least 30% of cacs will be fine with it too
Trumps Twitter attacks translate into death threats by supporters willing to actually carry it out, in addition to swaying voters.
It is fucking blowing my mind that Kats don’t automatically see this..
In fact it’s fucking scary... Kats on here have the mental capacity to use an electronic device to create a user name and type an opinion on An Internet forum.. yet we have to explain In plain English how hugely important this election has now become... it was already huge but now it is literally all hands on fucking deck..
This needs to spread to every fucking black forum..
Even the gawd damn Coli...
All hands on Deck!!!

I do think Mitt has had enough... I actually see him being the Maverick on this. Susan Collins flip flopping again has me worried.
All hands on fucking Deck!!!!

Mr. Pool
We’re proper fucked
I’m sorry can you post Jeff Flakes obituary?
2020 just took the wind out of my sails ..... but I’m fired up now..
All hands on fucking Deck!!!
You honestly should be at peace. You know where the political opposition stands and this is an opportunity to see what you are made of.
People should have spent the last 4 years organizing instead of getting emotional over tweets. Ladies are getting their ovaries ripped out. Save your energy for issues like that.
This is the wrong attitude. The lady had cancer every month this year. You really didn’t think she was going to make it to election did you?
You have to understand that acknowledging these things for these brothers ultimately means they would have to be accountable for either their actions or their inaction.
It's easier to stand on the sideline and not participate which allows them to be critical of others while also blaming everyone else for their predicament.
It's easier to preach the don't vote, reparations, give us something for our vote shit because they don't really have to do or accomplish anything since they can always blame their lack of progress or action on those who are doing and trying by calling them "coons", "brainwashed", "house niggas", "Obama stans", etc.
Sort of like the dudes in school that would get failing grades but always say they could get A's if they tried yet never actually tried.
As a lawyer... I can’t be at peace over this.
This is the thing that I’ve been warning the board about since 2015... this is my nightmare.... I’m doing all that I can over here but I’m just trying to get people to grasp that in the worst time for us.. Trump could end up with 4 judges on the Supreme Court .. maybe 5 if Clarence retires if Trump Wins..
Like I can’t remember a president this bad being able to fundamentally shift the legal landscape for decades.. Decades!!!
Not just the legal landscape.
Most don't realize the ripple effect of the policies that will be formed by these individuals and how they'll impact our every day lives without us knowing.
For example most don't know that prior to Nixon (and later Reagan's) war on drugs and the resulting mass incarceration of poor, non-violent black offenders we had a higher percentage of married black couples raising a family than whites.
Fast forward to now and we're dealing with a false narrative of black men not taking care of their children, not being in the home, black men vs. black women, etc.
All of which came about as a result of the judges and policies enacted/enforced by them that ultimately destroyed our families and communities.
And we still haven't recovered from that.
Imagine how much worse it can be when they control the courts for the next 40 years at minimum.
Man. I've always felt I've had infinite energy, enthusiasm, etc... even during rough times I've managed to deal with things well. 2020 is really pushing me to the edge man. The crazy politics, death, this covid shit, etc... man...2020 gonna leave scars
We just can't trust none of the Republicans at their word now or through past statements. So, if they push through a new justice before 45 gets voted out, the Dems need to grow a pair to openly threaten to expand the SCOTUS justices #s and add term limits when they're in power. Til then, we are as fucked as we have been with the increasing likelihood to get worse as long as this administration is in charge. You don't win against these guys by reaching across he aisle. You win by doing whatever the fuck is necessary and boasting about kicking their ass again and again.
Exactly. This shit has real recuperations. If Trump manages to win... with Barr and a 6-3 Supreme Court, it would take 50 fucking years just to get back to where we are right now... nothing would be recognizable after 4 more years of Trump...
I'm going to be blunt here: both of them did alot for people where their names will live on forever.
Difference is, only ONE of those names will live on in BLACK society, the other will not
Which one DO you think I CARE ABOUT?
"Senate Democrats can block every motion, force every bill to be read in full, and use a wide range of parliamentary tactics to shut down the Senate between now and January, when new Senators and the president are inaugurated.
The Senate still has work ahead, including bills Trump and McConnell want to pass, including bills to fund the government. It's time to block all of it."
"The Senate runs on unanimous consent. If a single Senator objects to anything, even routine procedure, everything grinds to a halt. That is what Senate Democrats must do: block unanimous consent on every single thing for the rest of the year."

We have to whatever the fuck needs to be done from here until...

Yup. Until January 20th.
RIP to a solid human being.
Two completely different arguments. I don't even understand how you can't get this. I'm not grieving for RBG as a person. Chadwick was inspirational... gave black people a "hero", etc. I can fully appreciate what he did for the culture. I felt bad for his family, etc... young brotha gone too soon. I'm not personally hurt over RBG as a person dying. I wish she had retired during Obama's first term and it wouldn't even be the type of issue it is now.
However, the possible impact isn't even comparable. He's not even comparable to John Lewis. Literally, your children's lives could be altered in
immeasurable ways if Mitch and Trump win on this. You'll have 40 year old kids still being fucked over by this. Replace her with Tom Cotton before the election and your got-damn vote might not even be counted depending on how you do it.
Two completely different issues...not even sure why you're conflating the two.
They should've never stopped teaching Civics in school
She should have retired the second Obama won reelection. There is no way a seat would have been held open for the entire term. If the court turns 6/3 it's almost entirely the fault of her hubris. She knew she was on borrowed time but she just couldn't step aside because of ego.
Honestly. When Obama won the first time, she was already in her mid 70s. She should have retired during his first term. If you look at video of her and Obama together during his first term, she didn't look THAT much different than she's looked over the last couple of years. She's been fighting various types of cancers for a long ass time.
Ok then tell me this: Whith all of the laws in place to protect our civil rights, why are we still being killed by white supremacist and race soldiers?
If this happens, the world won't make it to 2025.
We will have ongoing civil unrest. Also, Trump could do something stupid to trigger a world war...
...and it will be the last world war, because nuclear weapons would come into play, with the very real possibility that no one will be here anymore.
The entire scenario as it is now dangerously close to Armageddon.
