Only when a Republican Supreme Court nominee does it?
“This is about five extremist justices… at least two of them swore up and down that they cared about the rule of law and Roe v Wade is settled law.” — Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), quoted by CNN.
Murkowski Says Confidence In Court Is Rocked
Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) said a draft Supreme Court opinion aimed at possibly overturning Roe V. Wade “rocks my confidence in the court right now,” Politico reports.
Said Murkowski: “Roe is still the law of the land. We don’t know the direction that this decision may ultimately take. Sen. Collins and I in February introduced a bill that would codify Roe v. Wade. I thought it made sense then and I think it makes perhaps more sense now.”
This is almost like the end of Reconstilation after the civil war.
With the exception of slavery and outright racial discrimination. The current Republican party wants the states to outlaw gay marriage , and even interracial marriage.
You really think that federalism in it's extreme view would also.
Women could not vote Blacks could still be owned Gays could not marry Alcohol would be illegal
If each state is basically an independent nation as you want them to have the authority to do as you said.
So what is behind leaking Supreme Court drafts of impending opinions, or seeking to pack the Supreme Court with 15 justices, or ending the Senate filibuster, or adding two more states to the 60-year-old, 50-state union, or curtailing states’ rights to set their own balloting procedures, or trashing the Constitution’s Electoral College?
The answer to those questions also applies to Joe Biden’s promise to cancel millions of contracted federally guaranteed student loans simply by a pre-midterm election executive fiat.
And how can Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas openly negate federal immigration law? How can he welcome millions to cross illegally the southern border?
The answers are obvious.
The hard Left has detoured from the mainstream of American voters onto a radical trajectory. So it will never find 51 percent public approval for any of its current extremist and crackpot initiatives.
Instead, it sees success only through altering the rules of governance or changing the demography of the electorate—or both.
Still, leftists should be careful about what they wish for.
Latinos are historically transforming en masse into conservative voters.
Leftists are also greenlighting powerful precedents for the next Republican president. He may follow their lead by simply changing any rules, laws, customs, and traditions anytime he deems them inconvenient.
Big Majority of Texans Say Abortion Should Be Allowed May 5, 2022 at 12:56 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard 15 Comments
A new University of Texas at Austin poll finds 78% of Texas voters think abortion should be allowed in some form, while just 15% said access to the procedure should be completely outlawed.
Congress "should" codify it into law. That is actually how our Democracy is supposed to work. It is liberals who lean on the court to do the bidding that they cannot accomplish through Democratic means...
Then they get upset when a court ruling goes the other way? They jump up and down screaming and hollering like a bunch of children.
You live by the courts (Roe v Wade) you die by the courts.
Make it a law and no court will be able to do anything about it.
Oh wait... you would need a ruling consensus to do that, huh? I guess ultimately that has been, still is, and will continue to be your problem.
A new University of Texas at Austin poll finds 78% of Texas voters think abortion should be allowed in some form, while just 15% said access to the procedure should be completely outlawed.
NOW THAT'S TEXAS!
That's a wildly liberal college in the only liberal city in Texas.
Hardly representative of Texas as a whole, pederast.
I'm mistaken. That shithole known as Houston is also liberal. They're so fucking stupid, Sheila Jackson Lee is their representative basically for life.
It has nothing to do with Roe v Wade... You do understand that, right?
Oh and did you actually "read the poll" Reverend, or just suck up the Goddard description of it? Misleading if not bearing false witness.
The poll broken down
39% believe it should be allowed as a matter of personal choice 28% believe it should be allowed only in cases of rape and incest 11% believe it should be allowed for other reasons on top of rape incest (health of child or mother) 17% believe it should not be allowed at all
So it would be more honest to say that a "minority" (39%) want abortion as a matter of personal choice.. while a "majority" (56%) either want it limited to special circumstance or banned all together?
So that is a different factual explanation of events than the "narrative" provided to you by Goddard.
Hey Alky, you’ve tried twice but what happened after The War of Northern Aggression was RECONSTRUCTION
You dare to challenge the alcoholic historical sage of this blog as he lectures us from his perch at the Cuckoo's Nest with his sidekick the 5th Beatle?
Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts is furious over the leak of Justice Samuel Alito’s draft majority opinion that appears to portend the complete demolition of constitutional abortion rights in the U.S. Calling the leak to the website Politico a “betrayal” of confidences and a “singular and egregious” breach of trust, Roberts announced that the marshal of the court would “launch an investigation to get to the source of the leak.” The prime suspects, of course, are the Court’s 36 clerks and the other justices themselves, each of whom might have had access to Alito’s draft. Roberts appears, either intentionally or otherwise, to have absolved the clerks, whom he called “intensely loyal” with and exemplary tradition of respecting confidentiality. That leaves the possibility of a rogue justice, whose possible motives – for either conservative or liberal objectives – have been the subject of much speculation in the press. If it turns out that Politico’s source was one of his colleagues, Roberts bears more underlying responsibility for the breach than he has been willing to admit.
The Supreme Court has long operated in a culture of ethical impunity, although obscured by an aura of legitimacy, and Roberts has done nothing but enable it since becoming chief. The natural result has been a court in which the justices each act independently, even on ethics issues, answerable to no one. It was predictable, if not inevitable, that a justice might one day decide that respect for confidentiality was less important than some other strategic advantage or strongly held value.
Roberts has had many opportunities to reign in the justices’ sense of ethical entitlement. He was confirmed and appointed shortly after the late Justice Antonin Scalia famously refused to recuse himself in a case involving then Vice President Dick Cheney, even though the two had gone together on a Louisiana duck hunt while the case was pending. Notably, Scalia made the decision entirely on his own, following the Court’s “historic practice” of deferring to individual justices on recusals, thus making them the only judges in the U.S. to exercise unreviewable discretion over their personal ethics choices. As the new Chief Justice, Roberts might have instituted a change in this protocol, presenting recusal motions to the full court rather than to the challenged justice. Instead, he has consistently doubled down on the justices’ prerogatives, resisting every call to establish a system of collective responsibility.
In 2011, Roberts devoted his entire Year-End Report of the Federal Judiciary to explaining why the Supreme Court – unlike every other court in the U.S. – has never adopted a code of conduct. “Every Justice seeks to follow high ethical standards,” he said (capitalization original), stressing that the consciences of his colleagues were sufficient to allow each individual to make their own ethical judgments. “For that reason,” Roberts continued, “the Court has had no reason to adopt the Code of Conduct as its definitive source of ethical guidance.”
The justices have engendered no shortage of ethics issues, notwithstanding Roberts’s dismissal of a comprehensive code of conduct, but neither he nor the Court have issued a word in response. Justice Clarence Thomas had to revise thirteen years of his annual financial disclosures due to his improper failure to report his wife’s income, including $680,000 from the conservative Heritage Foundation, which often files amicus briefs in the Supreme Court. The late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg created a well-deserved uproar when she repeatedly denigrated then-candidate Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential election. She eventually expressed regret for what she called her “ill-advised” remarks, but she did not apologize. In neither of these instances did Roberts or anyone else at the court comment on the two justices’ obvious ethical lapses.
Justice Thomas has consistently participated in cases where either the parties or potential outcome were linked to his wife’s political activism. Justice Elena Kagan and Justice Ginsburg encountered their own recusal controversies for sitting in cases involving their personal or political interests. Most recently, Justice Amy Coney Barrett sat in in a case where one of the parties was the charitable arm of an organization that had spent over $1 million supporting her confirmation to the Court, with the evident approval of Chief Justice Roberts. Justice Barrett did not even reply to a letter from two Democratic senators who requested that she recuse herself.
When it comes to ethics issues, the nine justices have acted as unconstrained free agents for decades, resolving questions and making decisions entirely according to their own lights, with no acknowledged rules or collective frame of reference. Uniquely lacking a written code of conduct, there is actually no provision barring a justice from disclosing a draft opinion or any other information from the Court’s deliberations. And indeed, several justices have been anonymous sources for journalists, without suffering apparent reprimands or repercussions.
Chief Justice Roberts apparently thought it was just fine to proceed by consensus or tacit agreement on questions of ethics, but the leak to Politico suggests that he might well have been wrong. Justices who have come to regard themselves as the sole arbiters of their own ethical obligations may have very different priorities from their colleagues when the chips are down on matters of historic weight.
It will be some time before the leaker’s identity is discovered, if ever. Should it turn out to have been a rogue justice, it would be a stretch to call the release of the abortion opinion a “singular and egregious” breach of trust, rather than the ultimate expression of a decades-old, accountability-free regime. And if so, nobody is more to blame than the Chief.

How Abortion Might Play in the Midterms May 5, 2022 at 1:02 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard 31 Comments
Larry Sabato’s Crystal Ball: “The potential demise of Roe vs. Wade could both help Democrats generate higher turnout and appeal better to persuadable, Republican-leaning swing voters in the 2022 election who generally have a concern about women losing access to safe and legal abortion services.”
Because angry liberals burning shit down will help their cause...
Oh and Larry Sabato hasn't been right about anything for some time... but he has been consistently wrong in the same direction as Nate Silver and others...
The Politics of Overturning Roe ARE BAD for Republicans May 5, 2022 at 2:00 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard 31 Comments
William Saletan: “Morally, this reticence seems bizarre. For half a century, Republicans have campaigned on promises to expunge Roe. They said millions of unborn lives were at stake. Now victory is at hand, but McConnell won’t talk about it. Why not?”
“The answer is simple: He knows this issue is bad for his party. Roe infuriated pro-life Americans and made pro-choice Americans complacent. Republican candidates could use the issue to rile up their base without risking an electoral backlash. But if Roe goes down, Americans who want to keep abortion legal will have to vote that way. And those Americans are a political majority.”
MITCH KNOWS THE GOP'S IN DEEP DOO DOO.
First Read: How do we know that the early political read from Roe v. Wade’s likely demise looks dangerous for the GOP?
"Because while conservative activists have been over-the-moon happy about Justice Samuel Alito’s draft opinion overturning Roe, elected Republicans and GOP candidates have been much more cautious. Even a bit nervous.”
MITCH AIN'T GONNA LIKE THIS, BUT-- Schumer Calls for Abortion Vote Next Week May 5, 2022 at 2:18 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard 20 Comments
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said that “he planned to move on Wednesday to bring up a bill that would codify abortion rights into federal law, moving quickly in the wake of a leaked Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade, despite clear evidence that the measure lacks the support to be enacted,” the New York Times reports.
Mike Pence has been slammed by Democrats ahead of the Republican former vice-president’s appearance in South Carolina today at a fundraising event for the Carolina Pregnancy Center, a Christian organization that provides services to pregnant people.
According to a press release, Pence’s remarks would focus on “protecting the right to life [and] restoring the sanctity of life,” per the Charleston Post and Courier.
Pence’s speech comes days after the supreme court’s draft opinion in Dobbs v Jackson Women’s Health Organization leaked to the public. The draft decision indicated the court plans to overturn Roe v Wade, which established the right to abortion access.
Abortion rights activists have criticized centers such as the one in South Carolina as “fake clinics” over their efforts to dissuade clients from terminating their pregnancies.
Democrats attacked Pence for touting his anti-abortion views just as the supreme court appears ready to override nearly 50 years of precedent and jeopardize reproductive rights across the country.
Jaime Harrison, chair of the Democratic National Committee, said on a press call:
Make no mistake, this draft opinion is the direct result of the Republican party’s extreme, decades-long campaign against reproductive rights and Americans’ fundamental freedom to make their own decisions about their health care.
Looking ahead to the midterm elections in November, Harrison added:
We must elect Democrats who will serve as the last lines of defense against [Republicans’] assault on our established and fundamental freedoms.
Trump flattens Biden in hypothetical 2024 rematch, poll shows
Mitt Romney: 'It's hard to imagine anything that would derail his support'
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., says that if President Donald Trump wants the GOP nomination for president in 2024, he's got it.
"He's the 800-pound gorilla in the room, right?" Graham said during an interview for the "Just the News, Not Noise" television program.
"I mean, he's the most consequential Republican. He has a lot of support in the Republican Party. If he runs for president 2024, I think he'll win the Republican primary. I don't think anybody can challenge him effectively. His record as president was very consequential, if you're a conservative. So his endorsement was outcome determinative for J.D. [Vance]. He was in a crowded field of talented people."
Graham's comments came just after the Trump-endorsed Ohio Senate candidate J.D. Vance won his primary, to face Democrat primary winner Rep. Tim Ryan for an Ohio Senate seat.
There must be a lot of others who agree to Graham, too, as a new poll profiled by Washington Examiner columnist Paul Bedard revealed the shocking result that in a rematch of 2020, Trump would flatten Biden 50%-36%.
The column described Biden already as "unpopular," and said, "Even more embarrassing for the Democratic president is one of the largest gaps yet between him and former President Donald Trump in a 2024 matchup. In the survey previewed by Secrets, Trump is up 50%-36%." continues:
"Americans who want to keep abortion legal will have to vote that way. And those Americans are a political majority.”
Pederast, If you honestly think the issue of abortion outweighs ALL of the other significant issues facing the American electorate in the upcoming midterms, you are delusional enough to be the alky's new roommate.
The abortion constituency consists of single women.
Public schools in Oregon will soon be required to provide tampons and other feminine products in boys’ bathrooms.
QUICK FACTS:The state’s new “Menstrual Dignity Act” which was signed into law by Democratic Gov. Kate Brown in 2021, mandates that feminine products be made available in student bathrooms in elementary school and up.In addition to the menstrual products, “instructions on how to use them” will also be provided.“Starting next year (2022-23), products will be available in all restrooms (male, female, and all-gender) in every PPS building where education occurs,” said a memo released on April 19 titled “Update on PPS Implementation of Menstrual Dignity Act.”
MEMO POSTED ON OREGON SCHOOL WEBSITE:
“Dispensers have been installed in all elementary and middle school girls’ restrooms, and more will be installed in all remaining bathrooms, including boys’ restrooms, next year,” the website reads.
BACKGROUND:The Oregon Department of Education wrote in March that “Not all people who menstruate are girls, and not all girls menstruate,” The Washington Times reported.The department also asked schools to be “gender-inclusive” by using “menstruating students” instead of “girls,” and “menstrual products” rather than “feminine hygiene products.”According to the memo, the new Oregon law also requires schools to “provide education on growth, development, and puberty that includes menstrual health.”
Sherrod Brown is emblematic of the leftists who need to scare their stupid with false narratives and outright LIES to try to win the issue, instead of winning on the merits.

President Biden announced Thursday that Karine Jean-Pierre will replace Jen Psaki as White House press secretary when Psaki leaves the job on May 13.
Driving the news: Jean-Pierre, currently principal deputy press secretary, will be the first Black woman and first openly LGBTQ woman to hold the position.
"Representation matters and she will give a voice to many, but also make many dream big about what is truly possible," Psaki said of Jean-Pierre on Twitter.
Any rights that are not specifically mentioned in the Constitution are being assaulted by the Republican Party of this era.
Despite glib right-wing claims to the contrary, as many legal scholars and constitutional experts were quick to point out, Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito's leaked draft opinion ending abortion rights opens the door wide open for the reversal of decades of human rights litigation. At issue is Alito's rejection of the ninth amendment, which states that the "enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people." Or, in plain English: Plenty of rights are guaranteed by implication in the Constitution — such as a right to privacy — even if not explicitly delineated. Despite his alleged "originalism," however, Alito was quite clear that he feels the opposite is true: If it ain't singled out by name in the Constitution, it's not a right.
"The Constitution makes no reference to abortion," he writes in the draft opinion that was leaked to Politico. As political scientist Scott Lemieux noted, this is a "junior high school debate society" argument unworthy of anyone with a law degree, much less a Supreme Court seat. But it does open the door to repealing birth control rights, same-sex marriage, and decades worth of social progress that religious zealots like Alito deplore.
Already, excited Republicans are drafting bills that would throw women in prison for "homicide" for abortion and end same-sex marriage rights. (Meanwhile, they are also restoring the "right" of parents to marry an 11-year-old off to an adult man.) But while Republicans are dusting off their obsessive desire to police American bedrooms, they are starting to notice that Alito's argument has implications for all the human rights they wish to end.
On Wednesday, Texas's Republican Governor Greg Abbott announced that his administration wishes to "resurrect" a 1981 Supreme Court case that guarantees the right of all children to public education. The case in question is Plyler v. Doe, in which the court looked at a Texas law that withdrew funds from public schools that enrolled undocumented immigrants as students. After determining that undocumented immigrants are, indeed, "persons," the court struck down the Texas law.
While Republicans are dusting off their obsessive desire to police American bedrooms, they are starting to notice that Alito's argument has implications for all the human rights they wish to end. No more men or women restrooms.
Vigilantes can follow you as you take your daughter to California and get an abortion. And perform a citizen arrest.
But Fat assed Chucklebee wins that contest hands down as the liar of the year!!!!!! BWAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! I bet it will not take long for the fucking jag off rat to comment on the new press secretary's sexual preference!!!!
“The Constitution does not prohibit the citizens of each State from regulating or prohibiting abortion,” the draft concludes. “Roe and Casey arrogated that authority. We now overrule those decisions and return that authority to the people and their elected representatives.”
As it should be.
And the rest of America should not be forced to suffer just because the left is too stupid and easily duped by fear mongering to understand this.
Unless the Supreme Court doesn't block it. Anti-abortion vigilantes can file lawsuits against doctors as well as individuals who “aid” and “abet” a woman seeking the procedure, and if successful, can collect $10,000 from any person who violates the law.
They can follow people and file lawsuits and make $10,000

Why the stock market is getting thrashed after rallying on Fed hike
So much for the Federal Reserve being the friend of the stock market.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average plunged 1,000 points on Thursday as traders reassessed what Fed Chair Jerome Powell said at his post-decision press conference yesterday.
A perception of a less hawkish Powell was embraced by the markets on Wednesday afternoon.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average soared 932.27 points and the S&P 500 gained 2.99%, which were the largest gains for the two indices since 2000. Even the beaten-up Nasdaq Composite popped 3.19%.
It now appears that after a few hours of deep thought, traders have formed a more lasting near-term view that the Fed is far from dovish, has let inflation get out of control, and is still poised to dramatically slow down the economy through a series of 50 basis point rate increases.
"Inflation is still going to be a major problem throughout the rest of this year and beyond," Miller Tabak Chief Markets Strategist Matt Maley said.
Selling pressure today was widespread and in some cases severe.
So here's the reality: It's not going to be single 0.5% basis hike that does the trick. It's going to take a sustained series of 0.5% hikes, and maybe even a full 1.0% hike if inflation won't stop.
And this is going to go on for a year or two. A year or two of constantly tightening up the money supply and therefore tamping down economic activity.
This is going to be grueling. Grueling, miserable, sad, dispiriting, heartbreaking, immiserating, depressing, and, seemingly, never-ending.
And they're going to have to raise interest rates so high they're probably -- almost certainly -- going to crash the economy into deep recession.
And the inflation is such a threat that "deep recession" is now an acceptable alternative to very high inflation which would wipe out retirees' savings.
That's where Brandon has brought us. This moderate, sensible man vouched for by NeverTrump who would bring about a Return to Normalcy.
Are you going to spread every lie your crazy assed lunatic unhinged nitwits toss out there?
I mean what is next?
If the worst court ruling in history gets overturned, does that mean you believe that Alien will come down invade earth, enslave everyone, and it will be Republicans' fault?
The rule of thumb is never get emotional about debate...
We seeing example after example of why this is a rule!
Anti-abortion vigilantes can file lawsuits against doctors as well as individuals who “aid” and “abet” a woman seeking the procedure, and if successful, can collect $10,000 from any person who violates the law.
Left-wing activist groups are planning to send protesters to the homes of conservative Supreme Court justices following a leak indicating the court may soon overturn Roe v. Wade.
The activists are organizing under the moniker "Ruth Sent Us" and have published the supposed home addresses of Justices Amy Coney Barrett, John Roberts, Samuel Alito, Brett Kavanaugh, Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch.
So here's the reality: It's not going to be single 0.5% basis hike that does the trick. It's going to take a sustained series of 0.5% hikes, and maybe even a full 1.0% hike if inflation won't stop.
And this is going to go on for a year or two. A year or two of constantly tightening up the money supply and therefore tamping down economic activity.
Exactly as it happened in the 70’s I just hope there’s a Paul Volker somewhere to stop this shit
IF the Federal Reserve would have hiked rates when I said so. They could have done 25 basis points a few times . But, alas they didn't so now they have forced themselves into a corner.
If we stuck to prescient, this never would have happened.
The selection of Ms. Jean-Pierre adds to the diversity among Mr. Biden’s more senior officials. The president has emphasized his desire for that to be a priority since the early days of his administration, when he stressed the diversity of his cabinet.
As Ms. Psaki noted on Twitter, Ms. Jean-Pierre will be the first Black woman and the first openly gay person to serve as the top spokesperson for the White House.
In the heated summer of 2020, thwarted in his desire for a violent crackdown on protesters for racial justice, Donald Trump raged that senior advisers including his vice-president, Mike Pence, were “losers”.
Trump’s second defense secretary, Mark Esper, details the extraordinary Oval Office outburst in a new book. A Sacred Oath: Memoirs of a Defense Secretary in Extraordinary Times, will be published next week. The Guardian obtained a copy.

Esper’s account of an extraordinary presidential question in the same meeting – “Can’t you just shoot them? Just shoot them in the legs or something” – has already been reported.
Russia‑Ukraine war: Israelsays Putin has apologised for Lavrov’s Hitler comments; fresh attempt to evacuate Azovstal civilians – live
But the former defense secretary’s full account of the meeting, which happened as Washington and other US cities were convulsed by protests inspired by the police murder of George Floyd in late May 2020, is equally remarkable.
Esper’s account of Gen Mark Milley’s attempts to explain to Trump the role of the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff echoes others, including by the reporter Michael Bender in a book published last year and by William Barr, Trump’s second attorney general, who was present.
Like Barr in his own memoir, the former secretary of defense does not stint when describing what he says Trump said when he was told Milley had no command authority over active duty or national guard forces the president wanted to deploy against protesters.
“‘You are losers!’ the president railed. ‘You are all fucking losers!’
“This wasn’t the first time I had heard him use this language, but not with this much anger, and never directed at people in a room with him, let alone toward Barr, Milley and me.”
It is no secret that the founding of the United States of America has profoundly and beneficially impacted the prosperity of the entire world. By extension, the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution is one of the key tools, and last resort, to ensure that prosperity continues.
According to the American Enterprise Institute:
In the decades that followed World War II, America exercised its leadership to underpin and shape globalization in a manner that ensured economic prosperity both at home and abroad. This international economic system, which could not have been created without America, has been responsible for lifting nearly a billion of people [sic] out of poverty at a pace never before seen.
We did this by promoting lower international trade barriers, fairer trade standards, and consistency. Our conservative and capitalist values and the strategic use of military power ensured the safe and cost-effective movement of goods throughout the world.
The exceptions, at first, were socialist countries and other dictatorships that sought to exert absolute control over the local production of goods and food. They sought absolute control over their citizens, too.
Although it is not the case today, during the height of the Cold War, the U.S. shipped millions of tons of grain to the USSR, which could not sufficiently feed its own people. In 1985 alone, the U.S. sold 85 million tons to the USSR. The USSR's dependence on imported grain became one of the driving factors behind perestroika. Economic reforms and the collapse of the Soviet Union's centralized economy led to Russia and Ukraine being major exporters of grain today.
In other words, freedom and capitalism matter, and the drift of the U.S. toward socialism is a huge threat to global prosperity. The U.S. Constitution is based upon limited government, the primacy of the people, personal freedom premised on a capitalist economic system, and the moral precepts of Judeo-Christianity.
To ensure the primacy of the people over the inevitable encroachment of the government into our lives, the Founders enshrined the Second Amendment into the Bill of Rights. Contrary to popular belief, this amendment is not so hunters may hunt or for the sake of protecting shooting sports. The Second Amendment exists so that the people can protect themselves from government encroachment.
It took a decade of frustration with England's actions in the American colonies after the French and Indian War for free-minded conservatives like the Founders to decide to act — and act they did. Despite attempts to work with the English government to stay a part of the United Kingdom, over time, the Founders saw no alternative than to declare independence. By force of arms and a tragic war, the United States was born. It was as much a civil war as a war with England.
Is there still time to use political means to shift our trajectory back to the principles that made our country the "shining city on the hill" that so many others have tried to imitate? I pray for the political answer but take some comfort in the fact that our Second Amendment is there as a backup. War is a horrible thing and a very last resort for preserving our freedoms, realigning our principles, and staying in a leadership position in the world. If we fall to socialism, so too will the rest of the world.
The bottom line is that the election of Obama has lead us to this. https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2022/05/how_the_second_amendment_will_save_the_world.html
The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.
Darrell Issa has a video out from the border. There's literally a 30 ft hole in the fence. Contractors were paid by Trump to finish it. Materials were there. And Biden stopped it.

Why do you believe being black, having a vagina, and having sex with other women makes someone qualified to do a particular job?
Backed by billionaire funding, organisations such as the ADF took the fight against abortion rights to the courts – helping to secure a ban on buffer zones and so-called “partial birth abortion”, and supporting the notorious Hobby Lobby case, which stated that employers should not have to cover birth control on employees’ healthcare plans if it was against the owner’s religious beliefs.
These organisations and their billionaire backers have transatlantic reach. Take the DeVos and Koch Foundation-supported Heritage Foundation, which has welcomed a range of Conservative MPs to discuss free speech – including Oliver Dowden, Priti Patel and Liam Fox. It was announced on the day of the supreme court leak that Lord David Frost would soon be addressing the organisation.
Then there’s the ADF, which spent $23.3m in Europe between 2008 and 2019, when its European arm’s youth conference played host to the Conservative MP Fiona Bruce.
ADF International intervened in Belfast’s notorious “gay cake” case and is allied with organisations that lobbied to further restrict abortion in Poland. The US anti-abortion legal organisation, the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), a second religious freedom organisation that takes on legal cases to challenge abortion and LGBTQ+ rights, has also operated in Europe. Set up by the Republican Pat Robertson, who famously accused feminism of turning women into lesbians, ACLJ’s chief counsel is a former Trump defence attorney, Jay Sekulow. ACLJ spent $15.7m in Europe from 2008-2019.

So far you can see how big money, the judiciary and religious freedom movements have come together in the US and Europe. But there’s another active force that has pushed us towards the end of Roe: the far right.
Across the far-right infosphere, men discuss the need to ban abortion in order to reverse what they term the “great replacement” – a conspiracy theory that posits white people are being “replaced” by migration from the global south, and that, in the US in particular, this replacement is aided by feminists repressing the white birthrate via abortion.
Conspiracy theories such as the “great replacement” sound extreme. But when it comes to the US abortion row, such views are mainstream. Take this quote from the former Republican congressman Steve King, who represented Iowa between 2003-2021. He claimed “the US subtracts from its population a million of our babies in the form of abortion. We add to our population approximately 1.8 million of ‘somebody else’s babies’ who are raised in another culture before they get to us.”
Far-right theories circulate globally – that’s why people outside the US shouldn’t just act in solidarity with American women at this time, but prepare to stand up against the possible erosion of their own hard-won rights.

Only two percent of Americans believe President Joe Biden’s economy is “very good,” a CNN poll released Wednesday revealed.
By contrast, a total of 77 percent believe Biden’s economy is poor, the highest mark in a decade. Forty-seven percent say the economy remains “somewhat” poor, while another 30 percent said it was “very poor.”"
The no-show by Giuliani could also presage the breakdown of the entire cooperation deal, the source said, and Giuliani is expected to wait for the panel’s response to decide next steps. Giuliani may reschedule the interview if the impasse is resolved.
“Giuliani is an important witness to the conspiracy to overthrow the government and he remains under subpoena,” a spokesperson for the select committee said. “If he refuses to comply, the committee will consider all enforcement options.”
House investigators have been particularly determined to get the cooperation from Giuliani, one of Trump’s closest advisers involved in efforts to overturn the 2020 election from the very start – and could provide unique insights into the events of January 6.
Giuliani could speak to events such as a 18 December 2020 meeting in the Oval Office where Trump reviewed a draft executive order to seize voting machines and verbally agreed to install conspiracy theorist Sidney Powell as special counsel to investigate election fraud.
The Guardian has reported that Giuliani then led the Trump “war room” at the Willard hotel in Washington DC when Trump called from the White House and discussed ways to stop Biden’s certification – and could speak to non-privileged elements of the plan.
The cooperation deal would also technically involve Giuliani turning over documents in addition to appearing before the select committee, the sources said, but the logistics were unclear given the FBI last year seized his devices that he used on January 6.
“Roe and Casey must be overruled,” Alito wrote, referring to the 1973 landmark ruling along with its 1992 affirmation in Planned Parenthood v Casey. “Roe was egregiously wrong from the start.”
It is conceivable that some of the sharper edges of Alito’s devastating 98-page screed will be smoothed out before the final ruling is delivered in coming weeks. Other supreme court justices, notably Brett Kavanaugh, might demand as much in order to spare their own blushes.
But none of that will alter the fact that Alito will forever be known as the supreme court justice who destroyed a woman’s right to control her own body and who set the US on a regressive course pointing back to the 17th century.
Roe v Wade is a 1973 decision by the Supreme Court which determined that the right to an abortion is protected under the US constitution.
The justices ruled that while abortion is not specifically referenced in the constitution, it is protected under rights to privacy that are themselves protected under the constitution’s guarantees of liberty, particularly within the ninth and 14th amendments, the latter of which prohibits a state from depriving “any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law”.
“Joe Biden and the Democrats have and will continue to spread lies about where Republicans stand on abortion and women’s health care …. Republicans DO NOT want to throw doctors and women in jail.”
— Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.), memo on how to speak about abortion, May 3
Scott, the chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, issued a memo with proposed talking points on abortion after the leak of a draft Supreme Court opinion that would overturn Roe v. Wade, which in 1973 made abortion legal across the United States.
The problem with this talking point is that one can easily find laws proposed or passed by Republicans that would jail doctors.
We can start with Scott himself. Along with 44 other Republican senators, he is co-sponsor of a bill, the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, that makes it a criminal offense to perform an abortion if the development of the fetus is at 20 weeks or more. A violator is subject to criminal penalties — a fine, a prison term of up to five years, or both.
Hmm, who would perform an abortion other than a doctor?
In Scott’s home state of Florida, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) signed a bill last month that bans virtually all abortions after a gestational age of 15 weeks, even in cases of rape or incest. “If a physician violates the ban, they would be guilty of a third-degree felony, punishable by up to five years in prison and a $5,000 fine,” said the Tallahassee Democrat.
In Oklahoma, the Republican-dominated legislature passed — and the Republican governor signed — a bill that made abortion a felony and penalized doctors who perform abortions. A doctor convicted of violating the law could face up to 10 years in prison and $100,000 in fines. “The penalties are for the doctor, not for the woman,” said GOP state Rep. Jim Olsen, who sponsored the bill.
In 2019, Alabama’s Republican governor signed a law that put doctors who perform abortions in the same legal category, Class A felony, as rapists, murderers and kidnappers. The minimum sentence for a Class A felony is 10 years, but it can go as high as 99 years in prison or life.
There are many more examples, such as a new law in Arizona that threaten doctors who perform certain abortions with a minimum of six months in jail and a GOP proposal in Ohio to punish doctors who perform abortions with up to two years in jail.
To sum it up, this talking point is bunk. Anyone who made this claim would make a fool of themselves.
Slow Joe's incoming publicist is a world class JOO-hating piece of shit -
1. Jean-Pierre worked for radical organization MoveOn.org. MoveOn.org, launched in the late 1990s to oppose the impeachment of President Bill Clinton, pushed, ironically, for the impeachment of President Donald Trump, abandoning its former principles. The group also infamously accused General David Petraeus, then commanding U.S. forces during the Iraq War, of betraying the country. Jean-Pierre worked for MoveOn.org from 2016 until the 2020 presidential campaign.
2. Jean–Pierre has a history of anti-Israel radicalism. In 2019, Jean-Pierre applauded Democratic presidential candidates for boycotting the annual American Israel Public Affairs Committee policy conference in Washington, DC, a prominent pro-Israel gathering. “You cannot call yourself a progressive while continuing to associate yourself with an organization like AIPAC that has often been the antithesis of what it means to be progressive,” Jean-Pierre wrote.
3. Jean-Pierre once said that no one who has been merely accused of sexual misconduct should seek public office. Jean-Pierre told Jake Tapper on CNN’s State of the Union in 2017 that even if there was no corroborating evidence, and nothing had been proven against the accused, the mere existence of the accusation should be disqualifying. Ironically, she went on to work for Biden, even after he had been credibly accused of sexual misconduct by former aide Tara Reade.
4. Jean-Pierre is married to CNN anchor and correspondent Suzanne Malveaux. Jean-Pierre is only the latest example in a pattern of high-level personal ties and romantic links between Democrats and the media, as documented by Breitbart News editor-in-chief Alex Marlow in his 2021 blockbuster Breaking the News: Exposing the Establishment Media’s Hidden Deals and Secret Corruption. CNN will continue to be, in effect, the Biden administration’s communications shop.
5. Jean-Pierre stoked racial divisions and fears when Donald Trump took office. She told Bill Maher on HBO’s Real Time, “I think the thing to understand is that, if you are not white, male, straight, you are — you fear a — Donald Trump’s presidency because there is no place for you in a Donald Trump’s presidency.” She later claimed that Trump wanted to put a “whites only” sign on the Statue of Liberty, and claimed Trump had been a lifelong racist, despite evidence to the contrary.
(CNN)President Joe Biden and his administration appear perilously close to an irreversible severing of public confidence in his capacity to deliver prosperity and financial security as stiff economic challenges balloon into huge political liabilities.
Another dumb fuck rooting for economic calamity to promote his GOP asshole agenda and force women to carry to term or face criminal charges....BTW......have seen much commentary about money hungry idiots chasing women to explain a spontaneous abortion if texas law stands in other states. Sad you have nothing in the fight but consider your view to be sacrosanct and should be imposed on all women.....NO WONDER YOUR WIFE LEFT YOUR SORRY ASS!!!!!!
So this comment was removed earlier. I can't imagine why. I mean, it's such good news for Americans and the Sloppy Joe regime.:
(CNN)President Joe Biden and his administration appear perilously close to an irreversible severing of public confidence in his capacity to deliver prosperity and financial security as stiff economic challenges balloon into huge political liabilities.
A CNN poll released Wednesday shows that the President's repeated efforts to highlight undeniably strong aspects of the economy's post-pandemic rebound and to offset blame for its bad spots aren't working.
��Tucker Carlson: Joe Biden, not to be dark about it, just to be honest, Joe Biden has turned out to be an unparalleled disaster. That's not an overstatement. In fact, it's a generous assessment. Our country has never seen anything like what Joe Biden has done. Barely 15 months into his first term as president, Joe Biden has crashed the stock market, provoked a food shortage, opened our borders to millions of illegal aliens, presided over historic rises in murder, inflation and drug ODs, as well as a corresponding plunge in overall life expectancy... That's all real. Joe Biden did all of that and those are the big easy-to-measure crimes he has committed. https://tv.gab.com/channel/gee/view/tucker-carlson-bi
and he just keeps getting worse
the country may not survive him
he's moving us to WW3, almost looks intentional similar to his actions at the border
Donald Trump stunned the political world in 2016 when he became the first person without government or military experience ever to be elected president of the United States. His four-year tenure in the White House revealed extraordinary fissures in American society but left little doubt that he is a figure unlike any other in the nation’s history.
Trump, the New York businessman and former reality TV show star, won the 2016 election after a campaign that defied norms and commanded public attention from the moment it began. His approach to governing was equally unconventional.
Other presidents tried to unify the nation after turning from the campaign trail to the White House. From his first days in Washington to his last, Trump seemed to revel in the political fight. He used his presidential megaphone to criticize a long list of perceived adversaries, from the news media to members of his own administration, elected officials in both political parties and foreign heads of state. The more than 26,000 tweets he sent as president provided an unvarnished, real-time account of his thinking on a broad spectrum of issues and eventually proved so provocative that Twitter permanently banned him from its platform. In his final days in office, Trump became the first president ever to be impeached twice – the second time for inciting an insurrection at the U.S. Capitol during the certification of the election he lost – and the nation’s first chief executive in more than 150 years to refuse to attend his successor’s inauguration.
Trump’s policy record included major changes at home and abroad. He achieved a string of long-sought conservative victories domestically, including the biggest corporate tax cuts on record, the elimination of scores of environmental regulations and a reshaping of the federal judiciary. In the international arena, he imposed tough new immigration restrictions, withdrew from several multilateral agreements, forged closer ties with Israel and launched a tit-for-tat trade dispute with China as part of a wider effort to address what he saw as glaring imbalances in America’s economic relationship with other countries.
Many questions about Trump’s legacy and his role in the nation’s political future will take time to answer
No dumb fuck rat.....Your GOP wants to go back to the middle ages where women served a single purpose....obeying man's wishes!!!!! It is sad you are to fucking obstinate and stupid to see the erosion of women' right as no one is legislating what you can or cannot stick up your ass while women are being told how to live.....The best solution for women would be cut off all services to men and let assholes like you fuck yourself and jerk off unhindered!!!!!
I can get a cheap gun at a store for about $250, store it in my closet and use it any time I want for the rest of my life... then throw it away when I'm done with it.
Tim and Fucked up beyond belief run their mouths like the complete waste of space both are!!!!!!!!!!! What is truly done is your fucking lack intellect or a cogent thought of your own.....BWAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! Cue another reference to bleating.....LOLOLOL
Much of the disconnect between the parties involved the news media, which Trump routinely disparaged as “fake news” and the “enemy of the people.” Republicans, in particular, expressed widespread and growing distrust of the press. In a 2019 survey, Republicans voiced more distrust than trust in 2o of the 30 specific news outlets they were asked about, even as Democrats expressed more trust than distrust in 22 of those same outlets. Republicans overwhelmingly turned to and trusted one outlet included in the study – Fox News – even as Democrats used and expressed trust in a wider range of sources. The study concluded that the two sides placed their trust in “two nearly inverse media environments.”
Some of the media organizations Trump criticized most vocally saw the biggest increases in GOP distrust over time. The share of Republicans who said they distrusted CNN rose from 33% in a 2014 survey to 58% by 2019. The proportion of Republicans who said they distrusted The Washington Post and The New York Times rose 17 and 12 percentage points, respectively, during that span.3
In addition to their criticisms of specific news outlets, Republicans also questioned the broader motives of the media. In surveys fielded over the course of 2018 and 2019, Republicans were far less likely than Democrats to say that journalists act in the best interests of the public, have high ethical standards, prevent political leaders from doing things they shouldn’t and deal fairly with all sides. Trump’s staunchest GOP supporters often had the most negative views: Republicans who strongly approved of Trump, for example, were much more likely than those who only somewhat approved or disapproved of him to say journalists have very low ethical standards.

Addressing Chatham House, Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, says the devastated southern port city of Mariupol is “an example of torture and starvation used as a weapon of war”, adding that no international organisations can enter the city.
Zelenskiy says:
This inhumanity and cruelty is how the Russian military treats people.
Death is not caused by war. This is not a military event. This is torturing to death. This is terrorism and hatred.
Mariupol has been devastated, he says.
The entire city has been destroyed.
Ukraine needs weapons and equipment to break the blockade at the city’s Azovstal steelworks, Zelenskiy says. “Russia will keep attacking Ukraine until we stop them.”
A coalition of abortion rights groups announced today that they will be holding a nationwide day of action, “Bans off Our Bodies” day, on 14 May.
In light of the potential rollback of abortion rights, several groups, including Planned Parenthood, UltraViolet, Women’s March and MoveOn, will hold marches across the country, with four “anchor marches” to be held in New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, and Washington DC, reports Axios.
“We’re expecting hundreds of thousands of folks in these anchor cities and still hundreds of events all across the country. So no matter where you are, there’s somewhere for you to go,” said Kelley Robinson, Planned Parenthood Action Fund’s executive director.
Abortion would immediately become illegal in at least 13 states if Roe v Wade was overturned, reports Axios.
has no idea who anyone is and still has to look prominent people up
BWAAAAAAAAAAA!!!! Prominent assholes like you fucked up.....no qualifications or intellect either......I don't follow the dregs of society like you do since you have not life or a fucking brain that works....LOLOLOLOLOL Working for Trump does not mean shit to anyone but jerks like you......He also had his son in law and daughter working in the WH.....and I am sure a pile of dog shit would have better qualifications!!!!!!

Overall, we rate the Daily Caller strongly right biased based on story selection that almost always favors the right and Mixed for factual reporting due to numerous failed fact checks. The Daily Caller is a source that needs to be fact-checked on a per-article basis.
America’s labor market maintained its strong momentum in April, as the U.S. economy added 428,000 jobs — above the consensus estimate of 395,000. The unemployment rate remained unchanged at 3.6 percent.
Average hourly earnings for workers climbed by 0.3 percent month-on-month, a slower pace than the 0.5 percent seen last month. Year-on-year, earnings were up 5.5 percent, compared with an inflation rate of 8.2 percent. That means many workers, even if employed, may not be benefiting from the post-pandemic economic recovery.
The data will most likely keep pressure on the Federal Reserve to act aggressively to pull inflation down from 8 percent to 2 percent.
Economists believe the Fed is likely to raise rates by another 0.5 percent in June. In a news conference Wednesday following the Fed's announcement of a 0.5 percent interest rate increase for May, Chairman Jerome Powell noted that labor demand remained "very strong," while labor supply remained subdued.
"Employers are having difficulties filling job openings, and wages are rising at the fastest pace in many years," Powell said.
The factors that led to the so-called Great Resignation — too-low wages, federal economic stimulus, higher savings and workers seeking to avoid in-person jobs amid the pandemic — appear to be persisting.
Now, to fight inflation, Powell and the Fed are seeking to guide economic growth down to a trend where workers would keep their existing jobs while businesses would announce fewer job openings. This week, the U.S. Department of Labor announced job openings had increased from 11.3 million to 11.5 million in April — a new all-time.
Employers added 428,000 positions in April, and the unemployment rate remains just a smidgeon above its five-decade low, according to new jobs data.Between the lines: Tiny cracks are showing, suggesting the jobs boom could fade as this year progresses.
Why it matters: One huge question for the economy in 2022 is how the labor market will hold up as the Federal Reserve shifts toward tighter money, causing higher interest rates and higher recession risk.
So far so good, even as the breakneck job market of the winter could be giving way to something more measured.
By the numbers: Average hourly earnings rose 0.3% in April and are up 5.5% over the past year. The annual rate edged down from its March level, and over the last three months, wages rose 0.9%. That's the lowest three-month reading in a year.
The good bad news: Employers are not having to pay up quite as aggressively to find workers, which should lower inflation pressures.So far, inflation isn't being caused by higher wages. The Fed wants to keep it that way.
What they're saying: "The underlying inflation trend may be lower than I thought and coming down," tweeted Harvard economist Jason Furman.
The details: While the unemployment rate was stable at 3.6%, the details underneath that number worsened a bit.
The proportion of working-age people who have a job or want one fell by 0.2 percentage points to 62.2%, and the number of people not in the labor force rose by 478,000.Construction employment rose by a mere 2,000 jobs in April, which again could be a statistical fluke — or could be the canary in the coal mine suggesting that higher interest rates are starting to bite in building industries.
The bottom line: The job market remains in excellent shape for now; indeed, Fed chair Jerome Powell has called it "tight to an unhealthy level." If it softens in the months ahead, he won't be upset.
He may not raise the interest as fast as expected. We might not have a recession.
Gee, that's what happens when the court becomes completely activist and tries to shove their dogma down the countries throat wh by a margin of 80% want the precedent to remain !!!!!!!! SHIT HAPPENS!!!!
Only to delusional, mentally ill alcoholics locked away in nursing homes with no exposure to the realities of the current economy.
In the real world 10% inflation combined with soaring energy costs and precipitous declines in the stock market indicate that things suck worse than they have in 40 fucking years.
And if your only path to reducing the unemployment rate is a declining work force participation rate, you're doing it wrong.
There also was some better news on the inflation front: Average hourly earnings continued to grow, but at a 0.3% level for the month that was a bit below the 0.4% estimate. On a year-over-year basis, earnings were up 5.5%, about the same as in March but still below the pace of inflation.
An alternative measure of unemployment that includes discouraged workers and those holding part-time jobs for economic reasons, sometimes referred to as the “real” unemployment rate, edged higher to 7%. Unemployment for Blacks has showed a steady decline and fell again, to 5.9%, while Hispanic unemployment dropped to 4.1%.
“The job market continues to plow forward, buoyed by strong employer demand. After just over two years of the pandemic, the job market is remaining resilient and on track for a return to pre-pandemic levels this summer,” said Daniel Zhao, senior economist at jobs review site Glassdoor. “However, the job market is showing some signs of cooling as it turns the corner and the recovery enters a new phase.”
In the real world with 10 million open jobs and wage growth increasing, albeit less than inflation, is a pathway to success as more people are working meaning less living on assistance which even rat knows is a good thing but too fucking stupid to accept it!!!!! BWAAAAAAPAAAAAA!!!!!
The Socialist are attacking the US Supreme Court Justices and threatening their families.
Look for massive destructive and burning riots on 05/14 that will make the Junkie Floyd riots look like a weenie roast.
And hopefully there is COMPETENT security surrounding the Justices - NOT the morons in the Capitol Police - because the next James Hodgkinson is out there somewhere as we speak.
WASHINGTON (AP) — America’s employers added 428,000 jobs in April, extending a streak of solid hiring that has defied punishing inflation, chronic supply shortages, the Russian war against Ukraine and much higher borrowing costs.
Friday’s jobs report from the Labor Department showed that last month’s hiring kept the unemployment rate at 3.6%, just above the lowest level in a half-century.
History shows that when the Democrats win back control, the economy recovery from Republican President’s like Clinton and Obama and now Sleepy Joe Biden is now.
It's not true because you don't understand that hundreds of thousands have retired but the number of new jobs are far higher than you claimed without evidence.
The wipe-out in stocks was so complete that there’s a risk of losing sight of the fact that there was other bad news today. The government’s measure of productivity for the first quarter sank 7.5 percent, far more than the 2.5 percent expected. Productivity is a blunt measure of economic performance that balances hours worked against total output. So, a big decline in productivity is unwelcome at any time, but it is particularly bad for a quarter where we already know the economy contracted 1.4 percent. Ironically, one of the culprits in the productivity decline was likely the huge amount of hiring that went on in the first three months of the year. Employers brought on nearly 1.7 million new workers in the first quarter, an average of 562,000 a month. Getting the new hires up to speed likely cost us on the productivity side.
Also, many of those jobs were in some of the least productive parts of the economy, like leisure and hospitality. We tend not to like to think of the bartender at our local saloon as unproductive, and certainly the waitress at the local diner seems to get more done in an hour than we would; but those are low productivity jobs as measured by the government’s official statistics.
The Dow lost 1000 yesterday and is down another 280 TODAY.
But hey, McJobs are returning, with 11 MILLION more out there to be RESTORED. We're staring recession in the face, and can look forward to enjoying several more .5% interest rate hikes.
It's not true because you don't understand that hundreds of thousands have retired but the number of new jobs are far higher than you claimed without evidence.
And you know this HOW, alky?
Your suck boxes went up a quarter.
You're locked in a box and you're not allowed to LEAVE.
LOL.
Got door code?
Make yourself useful. Go give the 5th Beatle a reach-around.
There are tens of millions of jobs that don't require a college degree. But they are highly trained and motivated to work for their families.
A prime example is the construction business. They require highly skilled and trained employees to build highly complex structures and even like I worked.
The construction unions provide highly complex training for mechanics and electrical systems and plumbing systems and carpenters who build the structures , you have no idea how complex it is. There are many people who don't move up into foreman jobs or superintendent jobs, but they still make good money and insurance and defind benefit pension that are guaranteed for life.
You really don't understand how complex it is now especially since the internet systems have been put in place.
This administration is probably going to eliminate right to work legislation. Millions of people will have good jobs and health insurance
My niece just graduated from medical school with 150K in loans. The point is, Biden would have your well trained construction buddy foot the bill for her dent relief.
Majority Say Abortion Should Be Mostly Legal May 6, 2022 at 2:07 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment
A new Pew Research poll finds 61% of U.S. adults say abortion should be legal in all or most cases, while 37% say it should be illegal in all or most cases.
DATA SHOWS RIGHT-TO-WORK STATES GREW DURING PANDEMIC: Latest data compiled by the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) shows the 27 states with Right- to-Work laws (RTW) actually added jobs during the Covid Pandemic, while the other 23 states lost nearly 1.5 million jobs.
The presence of such laws was not the only factor involved, to be sure, but the data is strongly suggestive of a correlation of some significance, especially considering that seven of the 10 biggest gainers are RTW states, while seven of the bottom 10 are not.

Only when a Republican Supreme Court nominee does it?
“This is about five extremist justices… at least two of them swore up and down that they cared about the rule of law and Roe v Wade is settled law.”
— Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), quoted by CNN.
Murkowski Says Confidence In Court Is Rocked
Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) said a draft Supreme Court opinion aimed at possibly overturning Roe V. Wade “rocks my confidence in the court right now,” Politico reports.
Said Murkowski: “Roe is still the law of the land. We don’t know the direction that this decision may ultimately take. Sen. Collins and I in February introduced a bill that would codify Roe v. Wade. I thought it made sense then and I think it makes perhaps more sense now.”
That's one of the things that is going now.
This is almost like the end of Reconstilation after the civil war.
With the exception of slavery and outright racial discrimination. The current Republican party wants the states to outlaw gay marriage , and even interracial marriage.
You really think that federalism in it's extreme view would also.
Women could not vote
Blacks could still be owned
Gays could not marry
Alcohol would be illegal
If each state is basically an independent nation as you want them to have the authority to do as you said.
VDH -
So what is behind leaking Supreme Court drafts of impending opinions, or seeking to pack the Supreme Court with 15 justices, or ending the Senate filibuster, or adding two more states to the 60-year-old, 50-state union, or curtailing states’ rights to set their own balloting procedures, or trashing the Constitution’s Electoral College?
The answer to those questions also applies to Joe Biden’s promise to cancel millions of contracted federally guaranteed student loans simply by a pre-midterm election executive fiat.
And how can Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas openly negate federal immigration law? How can he welcome millions to cross illegally the southern border?
The answers are obvious.
The hard Left has detoured from the mainstream of American voters onto a radical trajectory. So it will never find 51 percent public approval for any of its current extremist and crackpot initiatives.
Instead, it sees success only through altering the rules of governance or changing the demography of the electorate—or both.
Still, leftists should be careful about what they wish for.
Latinos are historically transforming en masse into conservative voters.
Leftists are also greenlighting powerful precedents for the next Republican president. He may follow their lead by simply changing any rules, laws, customs, and traditions anytime he deems them inconvenient.

To beat the democrats at the ballot box is not enough. They must be crushed, destroyed, and salt the earth upon which they stood.
There is no room in polite American society for them any longer.
reconciliation
Reconstilation
Word salad word of the day, folks.
The current Republican party wants the states to outlaw gay marriage , and even interracial marriage.
That's right alky. Keep fear alive.
Pssst...
Clarence Thomas is leading the effort to outlaw inter-racial marriage. Oral arguments are going to be LIT!
LOL.
Scott rrb is calling for a revolution or a second civil war 🤔.
You really should not allow him to say that on your own blog
And alky, thanks for confirming my latest point about the left -
The only narratives the left promotes are FALSE narratives.
False narratives like your regarding gay and inter-racial marriage.
Ironically, Clarence Thomas would've been lynched by a KKK DEMOCRAT back in the old south for his relationship with his wife Gini.
My side otoh, wishes them nothing but the best.
If I said this about you or the other people here. You would be justified to block me from here.
"To beat the Republicans at the ballot box is not enough. They must be crushed, destroyed, and salt the earth upon which they stood.

Big Majority of Texans Say Abortion Should Be Allowed
May 5, 2022 at 12:56 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard 15 Comments
A new University of Texas at Austin poll finds
78% of Texas voters think abortion should be allowed in some form,
while just
15% said access to the procedure should be completely outlawed.
NOW THAT'S TEXAS!
Well Reverend...
Congress "should" codify it into law. That is actually how our Democracy is supposed to work. It is liberals who lean on the court to do the bidding that they cannot accomplish through Democratic means...
Then they get upset when a court ruling goes the other way? They jump up and down screaming and hollering like a bunch of children.
You live by the courts (Roe v Wade) you die by the courts.
Make it a law and no court will be able to do anything about it.
Oh wait... you would need a ruling consensus to do that, huh?
I guess ultimately that has been, still is, and will continue to be your problem.
Scott.

Hey Alky, you’ve tried twice but what happened after The War of Northern Aggression was RECONSTRUCTION
A new University of Texas at Austin poll finds
78% of Texas voters think abortion should be allowed in some form,
while just
15% said access to the procedure should be completely outlawed.
NOW THAT'S TEXAS!
That's a wildly liberal college in the only liberal city in Texas.
Hardly representative of Texas as a whole, pederast.
Rational people instinctively know this.
Only imbecile think otherwise.
Oops.
I'm mistaken. That shithole known as Houston is also liberal. They're so fucking stupid, Sheila Jackson Lee is their representative basically for life.
RRB thinks the poll polled only the university town?
That's not what pollsters do.
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS, CH?
What about it?
It has nothing to do with Roe v Wade... You do understand that, right?
Oh and did you actually "read the poll" Reverend, or just suck up the Goddard description of it? Misleading if not bearing false witness.
The poll broken down
39% believe it should be allowed as a matter of personal choice
28% believe it should be allowed only in cases of rape and incest
11% believe it should be allowed for other reasons on top of rape incest (health of child or mother)
17% believe it should not be allowed at all
So it would be more honest to say that a "minority" (39%) want abortion as a matter of personal choice.. while a "majority" (56%) either want it limited to special circumstance or banned all together?
So that is a different factual explanation of events than the "narrative" provided to you by Goddard.

So what do YOU think of that Reverend?
That only 39% of Texans believe that Abortion should be a personal choice?
Still think that poll proves some point for you?
He should look in the mirror.
Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts is furious over the leak of Justice Samuel Alito’s draft majority opinion that appears to portend the complete demolition of constitutional abortion rights in the U.S. Calling the leak to the website Politico a “betrayal” of confidences and a “singular and egregious” breach of trust, Roberts announced that the marshal of the court would “launch an investigation to get to the source of the leak.” The prime suspects, of course, are the Court’s 36 clerks and the other justices themselves, each of whom might have had access to Alito’s draft. Roberts appears, either intentionally or otherwise, to have absolved the clerks, whom he called “intensely loyal” with and exemplary tradition of respecting confidentiality. That leaves the possibility of a rogue justice, whose possible motives – for either conservative or liberal objectives – have been the subject of much speculation in the press. If it turns out that Politico’s source was one of his colleagues, Roberts bears more underlying responsibility for the breach than he has been willing to admit.
The Supreme Court has long operated in a culture of ethical impunity, although obscured by an aura of legitimacy, and Roberts has done nothing but enable it since becoming chief. The natural result has been a court in which the justices each act independently, even on ethics issues, answerable to no one. It was predictable, if not inevitable, that a justice might one day decide that respect for confidentiality was less important than some other strategic advantage or strongly held value.
Roberts has had many opportunities to reign in the justices’ sense of ethical entitlement. He was confirmed and appointed shortly after the late Justice Antonin Scalia famously refused to recuse himself in a case involving then Vice President Dick Cheney, even though the two had gone together on a Louisiana duck hunt while the case was pending. Notably, Scalia made the decision entirely on his own, following the Court’s “historic practice” of deferring to individual justices on recusals, thus making them the only judges in the U.S. to exercise unreviewable discretion over their personal ethics choices. As the new Chief Justice, Roberts might have instituted a change in this protocol, presenting recusal motions to the full court rather than to the challenged justice. Instead, he has consistently doubled down on the justices’ prerogatives, resisting every call to establish a system of collective responsibility.
In 2011, Roberts devoted his entire Year-End Report of the Federal Judiciary to explaining why the Supreme Court – unlike every other court in the U.S. – has never adopted a code of conduct. “Every Justice seeks to follow high ethical standards,” he said (capitalization original), stressing that the consciences of his colleagues were sufficient to allow each individual to make their own ethical judgments. “For that reason,” Roberts continued, “the Court has had no reason to adopt the Code of Conduct as its definitive source of ethical guidance.”
The justices have engendered no shortage of ethics issues, notwithstanding Roberts’s dismissal of a comprehensive code of conduct, but neither he nor the Court have issued a word in response. Justice Clarence Thomas had to revise thirteen years of his annual financial disclosures due to his improper failure to report his wife’s income, including $680,000 from the conservative Heritage Foundation, which often files amicus briefs in the Supreme Court. The late Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg created a well-deserved uproar when she repeatedly denigrated then-candidate Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential election. She eventually expressed regret for what she called her “ill-advised” remarks, but she did not apologize. In neither of these instances did Roberts or anyone else at the court comment on the two justices’ obvious ethical lapses.
Justice Thomas has consistently participated in cases where either the parties or potential outcome were linked to his wife’s political activism. Justice Elena Kagan and Justice Ginsburg encountered their own recusal controversies for sitting in cases involving their personal or political interests. Most recently, Justice Amy Coney Barrett sat in in a case where one of the parties was the charitable arm of an organization that had spent over $1 million supporting her confirmation to the Court, with the evident approval of Chief Justice Roberts. Justice Barrett did not even reply to a letter from two Democratic senators who requested that she recuse herself.
When it comes to ethics issues, the nine justices have acted as unconstrained free agents for decades, resolving questions and making decisions entirely according to their own lights, with no acknowledged rules or collective frame of reference. Uniquely lacking a written code of conduct, there is actually no provision barring a justice from disclosing a draft opinion or any other information from the Court’s deliberations. And indeed, several justices have been anonymous sources for journalists, without suffering apparent reprimands or repercussions.
Chief Justice Roberts apparently thought it was just fine to proceed by consensus or tacit agreement on questions of ethics, but the leak to Politico suggests that he might well have been wrong. Justices who have come to regard themselves as the sole arbiters of their own ethical obligations may have very different priorities from their colleagues when the chips are down on matters of historic weight.
It will be some time before the leaker’s identity is discovered, if ever. Should it turn out to have been a rogue justice, it would be a stretch to call the release of the abortion opinion a “singular and egregious” breach of trust, rather than the ultimate expression of a decades-old, accountability-free regime. And if so, nobody is more to blame than the Chief.

Justice Roberts is a very good Chief Justice...

How Abortion Might Play in the Midterms

The Politics of Overturning Roe ARE BAD for Republicans
May 5, 2022 at 2:00 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard 31 Comments
William Saletan:
“Morally, this reticence seems bizarre. For half a century, Republicans have campaigned on promises to expunge Roe. They said millions of unborn lives were at stake. Now victory is at hand, but McConnell won’t talk about it. Why not?”
“The answer is simple:
He knows this issue is bad for his party.
Roe infuriated pro-life Americans and made pro-choice Americans complacent.
Republican candidates could use the issue to rile up their base without risking an electoral backlash.
But if Roe goes down,
Americans who want to keep abortion legal will have to vote that way.
And those Americans are a political majority.”
MITCH KNOWS THE GOP'S IN DEEP DOO DOO.
First Read:
How do we know that the early political read from Roe v. Wade’s likely demise looks dangerous for the GOP?
"Because while conservative activists have been over-the-moon happy about Justice Samuel Alito’s draft opinion overturning Roe,

Even a bit nervous.”

Schumer Calls for Abortion Vote Next Week
May 5, 2022 at 2:18 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard 20 Comments
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) said that “he planned to move on Wednesday to bring up a bill that would codify abortion rights into federal law, moving quickly in the wake of a leaked Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade, despite clear evidence that the measure lacks the support to be enacted,”
the New York Times reports.
MAKE REPUGS GO ON RECORD.
THAT WILL HELP LATER.
Mike Pence has been slammed by Democrats ahead of the Republican former vice-president’s appearance in South Carolina today at a fundraising event for the Carolina Pregnancy Center, a Christian organization that provides services to pregnant people.
According to a press release, Pence’s remarks would focus on “protecting the right to life [and] restoring the sanctity of life,” per the Charleston Post and Courier.
Pence’s speech comes days after the supreme court’s draft opinion in Dobbs v Jackson Women’s Health Organization leaked to the public. The draft decision indicated the court plans to overturn Roe v Wade, which established the right to abortion access.
Abortion rights activists have criticized centers such as the one in South Carolina as “fake clinics” over their efforts to dissuade clients from terminating their pregnancies.
Democrats attacked Pence for touting his anti-abortion views just as the supreme court appears ready to override nearly 50 years of precedent and jeopardize reproductive rights across the country.
Jaime Harrison, chair of the Democratic National Committee, said on a press call:
Make no mistake, this draft opinion is the direct result of the Republican party’s extreme, decades-long campaign against reproductive rights and Americans’ fundamental freedom to make their own decisions about their health care.
Looking ahead to the midterm elections in November, Harrison added:
We must elect Democrats who will serve as the last lines of defense against [Republicans’] assault on our established and fundamental freedoms.

Liberal Women Threaten Sex Strikes to Save Roe, to No One's Dismay

Trump flattens Biden in hypothetical 2024 rematch, poll shows
Mitt Romney: 'It's hard to imagine anything that would derail his support'
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., says that if President Donald Trump wants the GOP nomination for president in 2024, he's got it.
"He's the 800-pound gorilla in the room, right?" Graham said during an interview for the "Just the News, Not Noise" television program.
"I mean, he's the most consequential Republican. He has a lot of support in the Republican Party. If he runs for president 2024, I think he'll win the Republican primary. I don't think anybody can challenge him effectively. His record as president was very consequential, if you're a conservative. So his endorsement was outcome determinative for J.D. [Vance]. He was in a crowded field of talented people."
Graham's comments came just after the Trump-endorsed Ohio Senate candidate J.D. Vance won his primary, to face Democrat primary winner Rep. Tim Ryan for an Ohio Senate seat.
There must be a lot of others who agree to Graham, too, as a new poll profiled by Washington Examiner columnist Paul Bedard revealed the shocking result that in a rematch of 2020, Trump would flatten Biden 50%-36%.
The column described Biden already as "unpopular," and said, "Even more embarrassing for the Democratic president is one of the largest gaps yet between him and former President Donald Trump in a 2024 matchup. In the survey previewed by Secrets, Trump is up 50%-36%."

Public schools in Oregon will soon be required to provide tampons and other feminine products in boys’ bathrooms.
QUICK FACTS:The state’s new “Menstrual Dignity Act” which was signed into law by Democratic Gov. Kate Brown in 2021, mandates that feminine products be made available in student bathrooms in elementary school and up.In addition to the menstrual products, “instructions on how to use them” will also be provided.“Starting next year (2022-23), products will be available in all restrooms (male, female, and all-gender) in every PPS building where education occurs,” said a memo released on April 19 titled “Update on PPS Implementation of Menstrual Dignity Act.”
MEMO POSTED ON OREGON SCHOOL WEBSITE:
“Dispensers have been installed in all elementary and middle school girls’ restrooms, and more will be installed in all remaining bathrooms, including boys’ restrooms, next year,” the website reads.
BACKGROUND:The Oregon Department of Education wrote in March that “Not all people who menstruate are girls, and not all girls menstruate,” The Washington Times reported.The department also asked schools to be “gender-inclusive” by using “menstruating students” instead of “girls,” and “menstrual products” rather than “feminine hygiene products.”According to the memo, the new Oregon law also requires schools to “provide education on growth, development, and puberty that includes menstrual health.”
Sherrod Brown is emblematic of the leftists who need to scare their stupid with false narratives and outright LIES to try to win the issue, instead of winning on the merits.

"Representation matters and she will give a voice to many, but also make many dream big about what is truly possible," Psaki said of Jean-Pierre on Twitter.

Yawn.
Yeah, we've seen this clown before alky.
She lies almost as good as Raggedy Ann.
Any rights that are not specifically mentioned in the Constitution are being assaulted by the Republican Party of this era.
Despite glib right-wing claims to the contrary, as many legal scholars and constitutional experts were quick to point out, Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito's leaked draft opinion ending abortion rights opens the door wide open for the reversal of decades of human rights litigation. At issue is Alito's rejection of the ninth amendment, which states that the "enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people." Or, in plain English: Plenty of rights are guaranteed by implication in the Constitution — such as a right to privacy — even if not explicitly delineated. Despite his alleged "originalism," however, Alito was quite clear that he feels the opposite is true: If it ain't singled out by name in the Constitution, it's not a right.
"The Constitution makes no reference to abortion," he writes in the draft opinion that was leaked to Politico. As political scientist Scott Lemieux noted, this is a "junior high school debate society" argument unworthy of anyone with a law degree, much less a Supreme Court seat. But it does open the door to repealing birth control rights, same-sex marriage, and decades worth of social progress that religious zealots like Alito deplore.
Already, excited Republicans are drafting bills that would throw women in prison for "homicide" for abortion and end same-sex marriage rights. (Meanwhile, they are also restoring the "right" of parents to marry an 11-year-old off to an adult man.) But while Republicans are dusting off their obsessive desire to police American bedrooms, they are starting to notice that Alito's argument has implications for all the human rights they wish to end.
On Wednesday, Texas's Republican Governor Greg Abbott announced that his administration wishes to "resurrect" a 1981 Supreme Court case that guarantees the right of all children to public education. The case in question is Plyler v. Doe, in which the court looked at a Texas law that withdrew funds from public schools that enrolled undocumented immigrants as students. After determining that undocumented immigrants are, indeed, "persons," the court struck down the Texas law.
While Republicans are dusting off their obsessive desire to police American bedrooms, they are starting to notice that Alito's argument has implications for all the human rights they wish to end. No more men or women restrooms.

“The Constitution does not prohibit the citizens of each State from regulating or prohibiting abortion,” the draft concludes. “Roe and Casey arrogated that authority. We now overrule those decisions and return that authority to the people and their elected representatives.”
As it should be.
And the rest of America should not be forced to suffer just because the left is too stupid and easily duped by fear mongering to understand this.

Why the stock market is getting thrashed after rallying on Fed hike
So much for the Federal Reserve being the friend of the stock market.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average plunged 1,000 points on Thursday as traders reassessed what Fed Chair Jerome Powell said at his post-decision press conference yesterday.
A perception of a less hawkish Powell was embraced by the markets on Wednesday afternoon.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average soared 932.27 points and the S&P 500 gained 2.99%, which were the largest gains for the two indices since 2000. Even the beaten-up Nasdaq Composite popped 3.19%.
It now appears that after a few hours of deep thought, traders have formed a more lasting near-term view that the Fed is far from dovish, has let inflation get out of control, and is still poised to dramatically slow down the economy through a series of 50 basis point rate increases.
"Inflation is still going to be a major problem throughout the rest of this year and beyond," Miller Tabak Chief Markets Strategist Matt Maley said.
Selling pressure today was widespread and in some cases severe.
https://finance.yahoo.com/news/stock-market-is-getting-thrashed-after-huge-rally-after-fed-hike-161810856.html
So here's the reality: It's not going to be single 0.5% basis hike that does the trick. It's going to take a sustained series of 0.5% hikes, and maybe even a full 1.0% hike if inflation won't stop.
And this is going to go on for a year or two. A year or two of constantly tightening up the money supply and therefore tamping down economic activity.
This is going to be grueling. Grueling, miserable, sad, dispiriting, heartbreaking, immiserating, depressing, and, seemingly, never-ending.
And they're going to have to raise interest rates so high they're probably -- almost certainly -- going to crash the economy into deep recession.
And the inflation is such a threat that "deep recession" is now an acceptable alternative to very high inflation which would wipe out retirees' savings.
That's where Brandon has brought us. This moderate, sensible man vouched for by NeverTrump who would bring about a Return to Normalcy.

Are you in favor of people breaking the law?
Left-wing activist groups are planning to send protesters to the homes of conservative Supreme Court justices following a leak indicating the court may soon overturn Roe v. Wade.
The activists are organizing under the moniker "Ruth Sent Us" and have published the supposed home addresses of Justices Amy Coney Barrett, John Roberts, Samuel Alito, Brett Kavanaugh, Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch.

I would say so. He openly cheered and advocated for every penny of property destruction that occurred to celebrate the martyrdom of Junkie Floyd.
People were hurt and killed, businesses and lives were ruined, and the alky loved every minute of it.
He went to far as to declare Kyle Rittenhouse guilty of first degree murder roughly 5 seconds after the kid was arrested.
So yeah, the alky is a full-throated supporter of breaking the law by any means necessary to achieve his political aims.
So here's the reality: It's not going to be single 0.5% basis hike that does the trick. It's going to take a sustained series of 0.5% hikes, and maybe even a full 1.0% hike if inflation won't stop.

IF the Federal Reserve would have hiked rates when I said so.
They could have done 25 basis points a few times .
But, alas they didn't so now they have forced themselves into a corner.
If we stuck to prescient, this never would have happened.

But the former defense secretary’s full account of the meeting, which happened as Washington and other US cities were convulsed by protests inspired by the police murder of George Floyd in late May 2020, is equally remarkable.
Esper’s account of Gen Mark Milley’s attempts to explain to Trump the role of the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff echoes others, including by the reporter Michael Bender in a book published last year and by William Barr, Trump’s second attorney general, who was present.
Like Barr in his own memoir, the former secretary of defense does not stint when describing what he says Trump said when he was told Milley had no command authority over active duty or national guard forces the president wanted to deploy against protesters.
“‘You are losers!’ the president railed. ‘You are all fucking losers!’
“This wasn’t the first time I had heard him use this language, but not with this much anger, and never directed at people in a room with him, let alone toward Barr, Milley and me.”
It’s not only prescient it’s precious

How the Second Amendment will save the world
By Matt Rowe
It is no secret that the founding of the United States of America has profoundly and beneficially impacted the prosperity of the entire world. By extension, the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution is one of the key tools, and last resort, to ensure that prosperity continues.
According to the American Enterprise Institute:
In the decades that followed World War II, America exercised its leadership to underpin and shape globalization in a manner that ensured economic prosperity both at home and abroad. This international economic system, which could not have been created without America, has been responsible for lifting nearly a billion of people [sic] out of poverty at a pace never before seen.
We did this by promoting lower international trade barriers, fairer trade standards, and consistency. Our conservative and capitalist values and the strategic use of military power ensured the safe and cost-effective movement of goods throughout the world.
The exceptions, at first, were socialist countries and other dictatorships that sought to exert absolute control over the local production of goods and food. They sought absolute control over their citizens, too.
Although it is not the case today, during the height of the Cold War, the U.S. shipped millions of tons of grain to the USSR, which could not sufficiently feed its own people. In 1985 alone, the U.S. sold 85 million tons to the USSR. The USSR's dependence on imported grain became one of the driving factors behind perestroika. Economic reforms and the collapse of the Soviet Union's centralized economy led to Russia and Ukraine being major exporters of grain today.
In other words, freedom and capitalism matter, and the drift of the U.S. toward socialism is a huge threat to global prosperity. The U.S. Constitution is based upon limited government, the primacy of the people, personal freedom premised on a capitalist economic system, and the moral precepts of Judeo-Christianity.
To ensure the primacy of the people over the inevitable encroachment of the government into our lives, the Founders enshrined the Second Amendment into the Bill of Rights. Contrary to popular belief, this amendment is not so hunters may hunt or for the sake of protecting shooting sports. The Second Amendment exists so that the people can protect themselves from government encroachment.
It took a decade of frustration with England's actions in the American colonies after the French and Indian War for free-minded conservatives like the Founders to decide to act — and act they did. Despite attempts to work with the English government to stay a part of the United Kingdom, over time, the Founders saw no alternative than to declare independence. By force of arms and a tragic war, the United States was born. It was as much a civil war as a war with England.
Is there still time to use political means to shift our trajectory back to the principles that made our country the "shining city on the hill" that so many others have tried to imitate? I pray for the political answer but take some comfort in the fact that our Second Amendment is there as a backup. War is a horrible thing and a very last resort for preserving our freedoms, realigning our principles, and staying in a leadership position in the world. If we fall to socialism, so too will the rest of the world.

Biden Fails to call for Lefts not to riot and/or attack USSC Justices.
The nut jobs are working around the world..
Backed by billionaire funding, organisations such as the ADF took the fight against abortion rights to the courts – helping to secure a ban on buffer zones and so-called “partial birth abortion”, and supporting the notorious Hobby Lobby case, which stated that employers should not have to cover birth control on employees’ healthcare plans if it was against the owner’s religious beliefs.
These organisations and their billionaire backers have transatlantic reach. Take the DeVos and Koch Foundation-supported Heritage Foundation, which has welcomed a range of Conservative MPs to discuss free speech – including Oliver Dowden, Priti Patel and Liam Fox. It was announced on the day of the supreme court leak that Lord David Frost would soon be addressing the organisation.
Then there’s the ADF, which spent $23.3m in Europe between 2008 and 2019, when its European arm’s youth conference played host to the Conservative MP Fiona Bruce.
ADF International intervened in Belfast’s notorious “gay cake” case and is allied with organisations that lobbied to further restrict abortion in Poland. The US anti-abortion legal organisation, the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), a second religious freedom organisation that takes on legal cases to challenge abortion and LGBTQ+ rights, has also operated in Europe. Set up by the Republican Pat Robertson, who famously accused feminism of turning women into lesbians, ACLJ’s chief counsel is a former Trump defence attorney, Jay Sekulow. ACLJ spent $15.7m in Europe from 2008-2019.

So far you can see how big money, the judiciary and religious freedom movements have come together in the US and Europe. But there’s another active force that has pushed us towards the end of Roe: the far right.
Across the far-right infosphere, men discuss the need to ban abortion in order to reverse what they term the “great replacement” – a conspiracy theory that posits white people are being “replaced” by migration from the global south, and that, in the US in particular, this replacement is aided by feminists repressing the white birthrate via abortion.
Conspiracy theories such as the “great replacement” sound extreme. But when it comes to the US abortion row, such views are mainstream. Take this quote from the former Republican congressman Steve King, who represented Iowa between 2003-2021. He claimed “the US subtracts from its population a million of our babies in the form of abortion. We add to our population approximately 1.8 million of ‘somebody else’s babies’ who are raised in another culture before they get to us.”
Far-right theories circulate globally – that’s why people outside the US shouldn’t just act in solidarity with American women at this time, but prepare to stand up against the possible erosion of their own hard-won rights.
Sian Norris is the chief social and European affairs reporter at Byline Times. She is writing a book about the far-right attack on productive rights called Bodies Under Siege
Only two percent of Americans believe President Joe Biden’s economy is “very good,” a CNN poll released Wednesday revealed.
By contrast, a total of 77 percent believe Biden’s economy is poor, the highest mark in a decade. Forty-seven percent say the economy remains “somewhat” poor, while another 30 percent said it was “very poor.”"
CNN.
The no-show by Giuliani could also presage the breakdown of the entire cooperation deal, the source said, and Giuliani is expected to wait for the panel’s response to decide next steps. Giuliani may reschedule the interview if the impasse is resolved.
“Giuliani is an important witness to the conspiracy to overthrow the government and he remains under subpoena,” a spokesperson for the select committee said. “If he refuses to comply, the committee will consider all enforcement options.”
House investigators have been particularly determined to get the cooperation from Giuliani, one of Trump’s closest advisers involved in efforts to overturn the 2020 election from the very start – and could provide unique insights into the events of January 6.
Giuliani could speak to events such as a 18 December 2020 meeting in the Oval Office where Trump reviewed a draft executive order to seize voting machines and verbally agreed to install conspiracy theorist Sidney Powell as special counsel to investigate election fraud.
The Guardian has reported that Giuliani then led the Trump “war room” at the Willard hotel in Washington DC when Trump called from the White House and discussed ways to stop Biden’s certification – and could speak to non-privileged elements of the plan.
The cooperation deal would also technically involve Giuliani turning over documents in addition to appearing before the select committee, the sources said, but the logistics were unclear given the FBI last year seized his devices that he used on January 6.
“Roe and Casey must be overruled,” Alito wrote, referring to the 1973 landmark ruling along with its 1992 affirmation in Planned Parenthood v Casey. “Roe was egregiously wrong from the start.”
It is conceivable that some of the sharper edges of Alito’s devastating 98-page screed will be smoothed out before the final ruling is delivered in coming weeks. Other supreme court justices, notably Brett Kavanaugh, might demand as much in order to spare their own blushes.
But none of that will alter the fact that Alito will forever be known as the supreme court justice who destroyed a woman’s right to control her own body and who set the US on a regressive course pointing back to the 17th century.
What is Roe v Wade?
Roe v Wade is a 1973 decision by the Supreme Court which determined that the right to an abortion is protected under the US constitution.
The justices ruled that while abortion is not specifically referenced in the constitution, it is protected under rights to privacy that are themselves protected under the constitution’s guarantees of liberty, particularly within the ninth and 14th amendments, the latter of which prohibits a state from depriving “any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law”.
“Joe Biden and the Democrats have and will continue to spread lies about where Republicans stand on abortion and women’s health care …. Republicans DO NOT want to throw doctors and women in jail.”
— Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.), memo on how to speak about abortion, May 3
Scott, the chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, issued a memo with proposed talking points on abortion after the leak of a draft Supreme Court opinion that would overturn Roe v. Wade, which in 1973 made abortion legal across the United States.
The problem with this talking point is that one can easily find laws proposed or passed by Republicans that would jail doctors.
We can start with Scott himself. Along with 44 other Republican senators, he is co-sponsor of a bill, the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act, that makes it a criminal offense to perform an abortion if the development of the fetus is at 20 weeks or more. A violator is subject to criminal penalties — a fine, a prison term of up to five years, or both.
Hmm, who would perform an abortion other than a doctor?
In Scott’s home state of Florida, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) signed a bill last month that bans virtually all abortions after a gestational age of 15 weeks, even in cases of rape or incest. “If a physician violates the ban, they would be guilty of a third-degree felony, punishable by up to five years in prison and a $5,000 fine,” said the Tallahassee Democrat.
In Oklahoma, the Republican-dominated legislature passed — and the Republican governor signed — a bill that made abortion a felony and penalized doctors who perform abortions. A doctor convicted of violating the law could face up to 10 years in prison and $100,000 in fines. “The penalties are for the doctor, not for the woman,” said GOP state Rep. Jim Olsen, who sponsored the bill.
In 2019, Alabama’s Republican governor signed a law that put doctors who perform abortions in the same legal category, Class A felony, as rapists, murderers and kidnappers. The minimum sentence for a Class A felony is 10 years, but it can go as high as 99 years in prison or life.
There are many more examples, such as a new law in Arizona that threaten doctors who perform certain abortions with a minimum of six months in jail and a GOP proposal in Ohio to punish doctors who perform abortions with up to two years in jail.
To sum it up, this talking point is bunk. Anyone who made this claim would make a fool of themselves.
Four Pinocchios
Slow Joe's incoming publicist is a world class JOO-hating piece of shit -
1. Jean-Pierre worked for radical organization MoveOn.org. MoveOn.org, launched in the late 1990s to oppose the impeachment of President Bill Clinton, pushed, ironically, for the impeachment of President Donald Trump, abandoning its former principles. The group also infamously accused General David Petraeus, then commanding U.S. forces during the Iraq War, of betraying the country. Jean-Pierre worked for MoveOn.org from 2016 until the 2020 presidential campaign.
2. Jean–Pierre has a history of anti-Israel radicalism. In 2019, Jean-Pierre applauded Democratic presidential candidates for boycotting the annual American Israel Public Affairs Committee policy conference in Washington, DC, a prominent pro-Israel gathering. “You cannot call yourself a progressive while continuing to associate yourself with an organization like AIPAC that has often been the antithesis of what it means to be progressive,” Jean-Pierre wrote.
3. Jean-Pierre once said that no one who has been merely accused of sexual misconduct should seek public office. Jean-Pierre told Jake Tapper on CNN’s State of the Union in 2017 that even if there was no corroborating evidence, and nothing had been proven against the accused, the mere existence of the accusation should be disqualifying. Ironically, she went on to work for Biden, even after he had been credibly accused of sexual misconduct by former aide Tara Reade.
4. Jean-Pierre is married to CNN anchor and correspondent Suzanne Malveaux. Jean-Pierre is only the latest example in a pattern of high-level personal ties and romantic links between Democrats and the media, as documented by Breitbart News editor-in-chief Alex Marlow in his 2021 blockbuster Breaking the News: Exposing the Establishment Media’s Hidden Deals and Secret Corruption. CNN will continue to be, in effect, the Biden administration’s communications shop.
5. Jean-Pierre stoked racial divisions and fears when Donald Trump took office. She told Bill Maher on HBO’s Real Time, “I think the thing to understand is that, if you are not white, male, straight, you are — you fear a — Donald Trump’s presidency because there is no place for you in a Donald Trump’s presidency.” She later claimed that Trump wanted to put a “whites only” sign on the Statue of Liberty, and claimed Trump had been a lifelong racist, despite evidence to the contrary.

��Tucker Carlson: Joe Biden, not to be dark about it, just to be honest, Joe Biden has turned out to be an unparalleled disaster. That's not an overstatement. In fact, it's a generous assessment. Our country has never seen anything like what Joe Biden has done. Barely 15 months into his first term as president, Joe Biden has crashed the stock market, provoked a food shortage, opened our borders to millions of illegal aliens, presided over historic rises in murder, inflation and drug ODs, as well as a corresponding plunge in overall life expectancy... That's all real. Joe Biden did all of that and those are the big easy-to-measure crimes he has committed.

Donald Trump stunned the political world in 2016 when he became the first person without government or military experience ever to be elected president of the United States. His four-year tenure in the White House revealed extraordinary fissures in American society but left little doubt that he is a figure unlike any other in the nation’s history.
Trump, the New York businessman and former reality TV show star, won the 2016 election after a campaign that defied norms and commanded public attention from the moment it began. His approach to governing was equally unconventional.
Other presidents tried to unify the nation after turning from the campaign trail to the White House. From his first days in Washington to his last, Trump seemed to revel in the political fight. He used his presidential megaphone to criticize a long list of perceived adversaries, from the news media to members of his own administration, elected officials in both political parties and foreign heads of state. The more than 26,000 tweets he sent as president provided an unvarnished, real-time account of his thinking on a broad spectrum of issues and eventually proved so provocative that Twitter permanently banned him from its platform. In his final days in office, Trump became the first president ever to be impeached twice – the second time for inciting an insurrection at the U.S. Capitol during the certification of the election he lost – and the nation’s first chief executive in more than 150 years to refuse to attend his successor’s inauguration.
Trump’s policy record included major changes at home and abroad. He achieved a string of long-sought conservative victories domestically, including the biggest corporate tax cuts on record, the elimination of scores of environmental regulations and a reshaping of the federal judiciary. In the international arena, he imposed tough new immigration restrictions, withdrew from several multilateral agreements, forged closer ties with Israel and launched a tit-for-tat trade dispute with China as part of a wider effort to address what he saw as glaring imbalances in America’s economic relationship with other countries.
Many questions about Trump’s legacy and his role in the nation’s political future will take time to answer

These people don’t have real sources. They make up quotes or quote each other.
Fake sources, fake news.
ad infinitum
Much of the disconnect between the parties involved the news media, which Trump routinely disparaged as “fake news” and the “enemy of the people.” Republicans, in particular, expressed widespread and growing distrust of the press. In a 2019 survey, Republicans voiced more distrust than trust in 2o of the 30 specific news outlets they were asked about, even as Democrats expressed more trust than distrust in 22 of those same outlets. Republicans overwhelmingly turned to and trusted one outlet included in the study – Fox News – even as Democrats used and expressed trust in a wider range of sources. The study concluded that the two sides placed their trust in “two nearly inverse media environments.”
Some of the media organizations Trump criticized most vocally saw the biggest increases in GOP distrust over time. The share of Republicans who said they distrusted CNN rose from 33% in a 2014 survey to 58% by 2019. The proportion of Republicans who said they distrusted The Washington Post and The New York Times rose 17 and 12 percentage points, respectively, during that span.3
In addition to their criticisms of specific news outlets, Republicans also questioned the broader motives of the media. In surveys fielded over the course of 2018 and 2019, Republicans were far less likely than Democrats to say that journalists act in the best interests of the public, have high ethical standards, prevent political leaders from doing things they shouldn’t and deal fairly with all sides. Trump’s staunchest GOP supporters often had the most negative views: Republicans who strongly approved of Trump, for example, were much more likely than those who only somewhat approved or disapproved of him to say journalists have very low ethical standards.

Zelenskiy: Mariupol is being ‘tortured to death’
Addressing Chatham House, Ukraine’s president, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, says the devastated southern port city of Mariupol is “an example of torture and starvation used as a weapon of war”, adding that no international organisations can enter the city.
Zelenskiy says:
This inhumanity and cruelty is how the Russian military treats people.
Death is not caused by war. This is not a military event. This is torturing to death. This is terrorism and hatred.
Mariupol has been devastated, he says.
The entire city has been destroyed.
Ukraine needs weapons and equipment to break the blockade at the city’s Azovstal steelworks, Zelenskiy says. “Russia will keep attacking Ukraine until we stop them.”

A coalition of abortion rights groups announced today that they will be holding a nationwide day of action, “Bans off Our Bodies” day, on 14 May.
In light of the potential rollback of abortion rights, several groups, including Planned Parenthood, UltraViolet, Women’s March and MoveOn, will hold marches across the country, with four “anchor marches” to be held in New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, and Washington DC, reports Axios.
“We’re expecting hundreds of thousands of folks in these anchor cities and still hundreds of events all across the country. So no matter where you are, there’s somewhere for you to go,” said Kelley Robinson, Planned Parenthood Action Fund’s executive director.
Abortion would immediately become illegal in at least 13 states if Roe v Wade was overturned, reports Axios.

Sad how fucked up fucked up is when all he posts are trash news from sources that match his fucked up thinking!!!!! BWAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!
Overall, we rate the Daily Caller strongly right biased based on story selection that almost always favors the right and Mixed for factual reporting due to numerous failed fact checks. The Daily Caller is a source that needs to be fact-checked on a per-article basis.

The economy is still very strong 💪
By Rob Wile
America’s labor market maintained its strong momentum in April, as the U.S. economy added 428,000 jobs — above the consensus estimate of 395,000. The unemployment rate remained unchanged at 3.6 percent.
Average hourly earnings for workers climbed by 0.3 percent month-on-month, a slower pace than the 0.5 percent seen last month. Year-on-year, earnings were up 5.5 percent, compared with an inflation rate of 8.2 percent. That means many workers, even if employed, may not be benefiting from the post-pandemic economic recovery.
The data will most likely keep pressure on the Federal Reserve to act aggressively to pull inflation down from 8 percent to 2 percent.
Economists believe the Fed is likely to raise rates by another 0.5 percent in June. In a news conference Wednesday following the Fed's announcement of a 0.5 percent interest rate increase for May, Chairman Jerome Powell noted that labor demand remained "very strong," while labor supply remained subdued.
"Employers are having difficulties filling job openings, and wages are rising at the fastest pace in many years," Powell said.
The factors that led to the so-called Great Resignation — too-low wages, federal economic stimulus, higher savings and workers seeking to avoid in-person jobs amid the pandemic — appear to be persisting.
Now, to fight inflation, Powell and the Fed are seeking to guide economic growth down to a trend where workers would keep their existing jobs while businesses would announce fewer job openings. This week, the U.S. Department of Labor announced job openings had increased from 11.3 million to 11.5 million in April — a new all-time.
The jobs machine is still revving rapidly.
Employers added 428,000 positions in April, and the unemployment rate remains just a smidgeon above its five-decade low, according to new jobs data.Between the lines: Tiny cracks are showing, suggesting the jobs boom could fade as this year progresses.
Why it matters: One huge question for the economy in 2022 is how the labor market will hold up as the Federal Reserve shifts toward tighter money, causing higher interest rates and higher recession risk.
So far so good, even as the breakneck job market of the winter could be giving way to something more measured.
By the numbers: Average hourly earnings rose 0.3% in April and are up 5.5% over the past year. The annual rate edged down from its March level, and over the last three months, wages rose 0.9%. That's the lowest three-month reading in a year.
The good bad news: Employers are not having to pay up quite as aggressively to find workers, which should lower inflation pressures.So far, inflation isn't being caused by higher wages. The Fed wants to keep it that way.
What they're saying: "The underlying inflation trend may be lower than I thought and coming down," tweeted Harvard economist Jason Furman.
The details: While the unemployment rate was stable at 3.6%, the details underneath that number worsened a bit.
The proportion of working-age people who have a job or want one fell by 0.2 percentage points to 62.2%, and the number of people not in the labor force rose by 478,000.Construction employment rose by a mere 2,000 jobs in April, which again could be a statistical fluke — or could be the canary in the coal mine suggesting that higher interest rates are starting to bite in building industries.
The bottom line: The job market remains in excellent shape for now; indeed, Fed chair Jerome Powell has called it "tight to an unhealthy level." If it softens in the months ahead, he won't be upset.
He may not raise the interest as fast as expected.
We might not have a recession.
The Democrats will keep the Senate majority.
Gee, that's what happens when the court becomes completely activist and tries to shove their dogma down the countries throat wh by a margin of 80% want the precedent to remain !!!!!!!! SHIT HAPPENS!!!!

Only to delusional, mentally ill alcoholics locked away in nursing homes with no exposure to the realities of the current economy.
In the real world 10% inflation combined with soaring energy costs and precipitous declines in the stock market indicate that things suck worse than they have in 40 fucking years.
And if your only path to reducing the unemployment rate is a declining work force participation rate, you're doing it wrong.
CNBC does not agree
There also was some better news on the inflation front: Average hourly earnings continued to grow, but at a 0.3% level for the month that was a bit below the 0.4% estimate. On a year-over-year basis, earnings were up 5.5%, about the same as in March but still below the pace of inflation.
An alternative measure of unemployment that includes discouraged workers and those holding part-time jobs for economic reasons, sometimes referred to as the “real” unemployment rate, edged higher to 7%. Unemployment for Blacks has showed a steady decline and fell again, to 5.9%, while Hispanic unemployment dropped to 4.1%.
“The job market continues to plow forward, buoyed by strong employer demand. After just over two years of the pandemic, the job market is remaining resilient and on track for a return to pre-pandemic levels this summer,” said Daniel Zhao, senior economist at jobs review site Glassdoor. “However, the job market is showing some signs of cooling as it turns the corner and the recovery enters a new phase.”

Bookmarked
In the real world with 10 million open jobs and wage growth increasing, albeit less than inflation, is a pathway to success as more people are working meaning less living on assistance which even rat knows is a good thing but too fucking stupid to accept it!!!!! BWAAAAAAPAAAAAA!!!!!

Look for massive destructive and burning riots on 05/14 that will make the Junkie Floyd riots look like a weenie roast.
And hopefully there is COMPETENT security surrounding the Justices - NOT the morons in the Capitol Police - because the next James Hodgkinson is out there somewhere as we speak.

Well there it is folks.
WASHINGTON (AP) — America’s employers added 428,000 jobs in April, extending a streak of solid hiring that has defied punishing inflation, chronic supply shortages, the Russian war against Ukraine and much higher borrowing costs.
Friday’s jobs report from the Labor Department showed that last month’s hiring kept the unemployment rate at 3.6%, just above the lowest level in a half-century.
History shows that when the Democrats win back control, the economy recovery from Republican President’s like Clinton and Obama and now Sleepy Joe Biden is now.
The economy hasn't added a NEW job since 2019.
Fact Check: TRUE.
It's not true because you don't understand that hundreds of thousands have retired but the number of new jobs are far higher than you claimed without evidence.
The wipe-out in stocks was so complete that there’s a risk of losing sight of the fact that there was other bad news today. The government’s measure of productivity for the first quarter sank 7.5 percent, far more than the 2.5 percent expected. Productivity is a blunt measure of economic performance that balances hours worked against total output. So, a big decline in productivity is unwelcome at any time, but it is particularly bad for a quarter where we already know the economy contracted 1.4 percent. Ironically, one of the culprits in the productivity decline was likely the huge amount of hiring that went on in the first three months of the year. Employers brought on nearly 1.7 million new workers in the first quarter, an average of 562,000 a month. Getting the new hires up to speed likely cost us on the productivity side.
Also, many of those jobs were in some of the least productive parts of the economy, like leisure and hospitality. We tend not to like to think of the bartender at our local saloon as unproductive, and certainly the waitress at the local diner seems to get more done in an hour than we would; but those are low productivity jobs as measured by the government’s official statistics.

Roger, stop being so radically underinformed.
Retirees are re-entering the workforce because of Bidenomics Reccession and systematic inflation.

And you know this HOW, alky?
Your suck boxes went up a quarter.
You're locked in a box and you're not allowed to LEAVE.
LOL.

Make yourself useful. Go give the 5th Beatle a reach-around.
Roger, tell us how a new job unfilled is employment?
I can't wait to read Rogers response.
Sure Alky
Skyrocketing prices on essentials are forcing some older Americans out of retirement as U.S. inflation continues to hit new highs.
In just the past six months, about 480,000 adults over 55 began looking for a job, according to reporting by the Wall Street Journal. That’s compared to the 180,000 adults looking in the six months prior to the pandemic. This increase is credited in part to the outsized impact inflation is having on the ability of people to retire.
The government’s consumer price index, released Tuesday morning, showed prices shot up 8.5% in March compared to 12 months earlier, according to a report by the Labor Department. This marks the fastest year-over-year inflation rise since December 1981 and surpasses the 7.9% 12-month increase in February, which itself set a 40-year high.
Only an idiot would brag about wage growth when the inflation rate is double it.
There's a reason why retirees are reentering the work force. The huge increase in rent costs among them.
Hundreds of new companies have been created and they have new jobs 🙄
You idiot. And thousands of other companies have shut their doors.
I see I really triggerd VERY lo iq.

So basically Biden wants truckers, cops, and construction workers to pay student loan debt of rich, white gender studies grad students.
and screw the students who paid off their debts
and the majority of people who never went to college
I thought college was supposed to make you earn more money than people without college ?

Looking at the graph, can you tell when the federal government took over student loans?
There are tens of millions of jobs that don't require a college degree. But they are highly trained and motivated to work for their families.
A prime example is the construction business. They require highly skilled and trained employees to build highly complex structures and even like I worked.
The construction unions provide highly complex training for mechanics and electrical systems and plumbing systems and carpenters who build the structures , you have no idea how complex it is. There are many people who don't move up into foreman jobs or superintendent jobs, but they still make good money and insurance and defind benefit pension that are guaranteed for life.
You really don't understand how complex it is now especially since the internet systems have been put in place.
This administration is probably going to eliminate right to work legislation. Millions of people will have good jobs and health insurance
My niece just graduated from medical school with 150K in loans. The point is, Biden would have your well trained construction buddy foot the bill for her dent relief.
Majority Say Abortion Should Be Mostly Legal
May 6, 2022 at 2:07 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment
A new Pew Research poll finds
61% of U.S. adults say abortion should be legal in all or most cases, while
37% say it should be illegal in all or most cases.
LOL @ the alky:
DATA SHOWS RIGHT-TO-WORK STATES GREW DURING PANDEMIC: Latest data compiled by the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) shows the 27 states with Right- to-Work laws (RTW) actually added jobs during the Covid Pandemic, while the other 23 states lost nearly 1.5 million jobs.
The presence of such laws was not the only factor involved, to be sure, but the data is strongly suggestive of a correlation of some significance, especially considering that seven of the 10 biggest gainers are RTW states, while seven of the bottom 10 are not.
