Thought I'd mention this in case some Americans are missing. My TV is out, internet is fine so far.

The religious right is already gearing up big time since Trump's gonna pick another hard conservative judge for the Supreme Court, giving it a 6 to 3 edge for the first time in quite a while.

Roe V Wade will be under a major attack and may even get repealed. If nothing else, red states are going to basically make an abortion impossible to get.

This will just be the starting point. Unless the left wins back at least the house, women's rights will be under siege for the foreseeable future.

Vaginal probes anyone?

In other news, Trump was successful, in a very quiet behind closed doors way, of repealing the law against bringing elephant trophy's into the USA. Jr. is pleased with daddy.

Spoiler for Rich ugly ****ing savage bestial **** bag!:

Meanwhile, Ireland has voted to increase women's rights to access abortion if they need it.

Also, could you please stop posting that disgusting picture? Thanks.

OK. Sorry.

It just haunts me and gives me an insight into my ****ing dirt-bag president, and his dirt-bag family, and his dirt-bag administration.

And the reality TV show I'm stuck living in. It's ****ing Jerry Springer 101 in US politics right now. And his 35% base loves every second of it.

Yeah I know. I feel ya. I'm not getting at you, it's just we've seen it before and every time I see it I want to take that ****ing knife and plunge it into that smiling rich kid ****'s heart.

Trump tends to make people anxious. Totally justified, Chula. The picture was my only complaint. You didn't have to remove it though :[ just spoiler it. Oh well.

^ Did you hear about how Mitch McConnell set a precedent in 2016: he led the senate in blocking Obama's Supreme Court pick because 2016 was an election year, and said McConnell, we should hear from the American people first before we let the Pres choose a judge. So that nom was pushed to after the election....

I'm hoping the Dems will make the most of the parallel between that decision and 2018 - plus they only need 1 Republican to defect and Trump's choice can be rejected ( or so says Rachel Maddow.)
