The Republican Party and President Donald Trump have declared open war on women’s rights, health care, labor rights, gay rights, the environment, and civil liberties.
They have become an extreme right wing party, more like a Fascist Party, disparaging the history of a party that once stood for basic decent principles.
Officeholders in the Republican Party have sold their souls to the most evil man ever to be President, and their future will be one of total destruction, as the nation turns against them in November and in the future, as they did in California after anti immigrant legislation was passed in the early 1990s.
If there was ever a time for all good, decent people to vote, and to be willing to resist with demonstrations, but without violence, it is NOW!
The nomination of Circuit Court Judge Amy Coney Barrett is a complete repudiation of the historic role of Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and will galvanize all intelligent and educated women, all those who care about life in the midst of this COVID-19 Pandemic, all gays and lesbians, all environmentalists, and all who believe in racial equality and civil rights, to unite, and hopefully, defeat the forces of evil.
And if the Supreme Court with the evil intentioned Amy Comey Barrett declares abortion illegal and destroys the Affordable Care Act without a replacement, then the Democrats will have to add new members to the Court to upend the evil Trump-Republican strategy to take away basic human rights!
In addition to all of this, I fear a Bush vs. Gore redux.
Amy Coney Barrett’s Stare Decisis Problem–And Ours
She respects precedent less than Antonin Scalia meaning she’s ready to join Clarence Thomas and start taking a hammer to long standing decisions.

Trump Isn’t Trying to Win. Cheating Is All He Has Left.

Our local school system starts their hybrid plan this week. Teachers say the schools are still not prepared. Still lack of PPE. No adequate plans for when kids and teachers test positive. Vagueness about deep cleaning.
LOL! Trump wants Biden to take a drug test before the debate on Tuesday.
