How the fuck did we end up with two men who committed sex crimes on the Supreme Court?
By having a sex criminal as president.
He was only responsible for one of them.
Clarence Thomas was on Bush Sr.
True and we had all the information we needed about CT then. Accountability has meant nothing for a long time. 😔
Not only did we know... his accuser, Anita Hill, was dragged through the mud by the GOP in a massive display of victim-blaming that had an unreasonable amount of popular support.
Dragged through the mud by a committee led by our current Democratic president... who still hasnt actually apologized beyond "I wish I could have done something". Motherfucker you presided over the committee you could have done many things but were power hungry and sexist so didnt!
Yep. There's a ton of things I don't like about Biden. But I'll still hold my nose and vote for him because at least he's not a treasonous rapist who wants to be a dictator.
Just to be clear, agree 100%, first time in many elections I voted dem instead of green and will do it again this time around.
Because garbage people who abuse power and exploit people and are sociopaths hang together?
Really it's a reflection of our society at large, like it or not.
Otherwise President Orange "grab them by the pussy" Rapist would have bombed in 2016.
Remember the reactions of some Trumper women? It's normal, it's locker room talk. Boys will be boys or whatever the fuck? Yeah rape is normalized, expected for many. Idk if it is accepted or if these people are resigned to it.
But that's got to change. Me too movement was a catalyst for more change. It will take a long time. But we gotta keep pushing.
May we come in to talk with you about our republiQan party?
Many people are saying it’s the party of the rich which exists to serve rich white men and punish others. More and more.
I don't think that's a new state of affairs for them.
