Judge Amy Coney Barrett Won’t Say How She’d Rule On Abortion, Healthcare, Marriage Equality, Or The Election

Abortion. Before her confirmation to the 7th Circuit in 2017, Barrett spent most of her career as a law professor at Notre Dame Law School. In that ...


At what point does the Supreme Court become so stacked with religious right-wing nut jobs that we are no longer seeing American justice being enforced, but God’s?

The World Is A Safer Place Without Saddam Trump

It’s kinda tragic to watch Trump’s show of machismo since he left the hospital.   Mustn’t show any weakness!  God forbid! Like the virus gives a sh-t.  His body is like one of his golf courses...just a bunch of poorly maintained holes & a couple of old white balls. - Bette Midler






Trump Takes Cheap Shot At Dr. Fauci
President Donald Trump is going after Dr. Anthony Fauci one day after the infectious disease expert blasted the Trump campaign for taking him out of context in an ad...“Actually, Tony’s pitching arm is far more accurate than his prognostications,” Trump wrote. “‘No problem, no masks.’ WHO no longer likes Lockdowns – just came out against. Trump was right. We saved 2,000,000 USA lives!!!”

TRUMP: SUE THE WOMEN!
President Donald Trump offered some unsolicited legal advice to U.S. Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh on Monday afternoon....“He should sue the women, and all of those who illegally worked with them, for false and disgusting accusations!!!” the president advised. Trump clearly still remembered that his prior Supreme Court nominee was accused of sexual assault by Christine Blasey Ford and Deborah Ramirez 


Media. PLEASE stop using the term "conservative" judges when you mean "religious zealot" judges. - Randi Mayem Singer
