It's not new. It's not unexpected.

But it is escalating.

BTA- yep. It's just not getting coverage.

Skittles - yep. They will outlaw birth control.

ETA - ditto Solly. Adding - now they have the SCOTUS, WH, lower courts to TRY to inflict pain.

You - yep. Stripping legitimacy away from mixed race children and potentially marriages. That's beyond basic every day racism, it's a money grab. It would also dehumanize Obama - stripping him of his Presidential achievements. If he didn't exist?

My mom was a high earner - for a professional woman in the 80's and 90's. My dad was a much higher earner who retired before he died. She gets his higher rate of Social Security.

They will grab her money and give it to a *** in *** because she was a bad bad girl who married a black ma.

Understand - I hate this country and large swaths of people in it. I wasn't this way until about two years ago.

Now I love my state. State's Rights - NJ rules. Bring the Civil War. Fuck you USA.

Will only increase women and men voting trump and the gop out of office , and we need more women in higher leadership positions in our government , and this will help that happen.They didn't learn anything from the Mid Terms, and just thought that was bad.
