        A movement to repeal the 19th amendment is rumbling underground, and Amy Coney Barrett will lead the way*

        …I’m joking, but am I? Am I really?

        *just as Thomas will be the one to write the leading argument to overturn Loving v. Virginia

          Loving v. Virginia

          really ? Ok America… we need to talk. A court decision isn’t a solid enough basis for any rights, you need an actual law get your council of Elders to do something

            It’s supposed to be, though. A SCOTUS ruling like that is supposed to be, and traditionally has been, a confirmation that the laws (all things considered) already say it. You don’t need a new law, the interpreter/referee says the current laws already cover it.

            The problems right now are a corrupt judiciary, and a government that does not represent nor even resemble the populace.

              corrupt judiciary, and a government that does not represent nor even resemble the populace which is why I promote writing down everything into law
