There's also the matter of the battering ram they're taking against Roe v. Wade in the USSC today. There's a lot of live coverage I can't bring myself to watch.

Even though there's the whole "they've wanted to do this ever since it became legal precedent" thing at work, they *really* want to do it now so they can galvanize their base heading into the midterms. "Look what we accomplished even as the minority party!" :troll:

They've been able to use it as a way to motivate the base for a long time and they've figured out that their base is going to be motivated no matter what. All it'll take is a token "the libs are going to kill more babies if they get back in power" if their motivation starts to wane and they'll be good to go. I'll be super surprised if we don't end up with at least a 7-2 conservative court for the majority of the rest of our lives.

The right has won and the courts are a huge reason why that victory won't be going away any time soon.

As somebody who recently called Greenville SC home, my favorite BJU fact is that they didn’t allow interracial dating until after it became a big deal in the media when presidential candidate George W. Bush had an appearance there. In 2000.

Oh I've got this one pegged already. Once the cultural feeling on the right is that babies aren't being murdered anymore it will be race- and class-coded worries about *those* people, you know the ones, welfare moms just cranking out the babies and taking *your* hard earned tax dollars. We need to do something about *those* people having too many babies. They're not good for the future of the nation, you see. Plus it's really better for them, they just don't understand it. *They* aren't smart and compassionate like *us*.

The right always sells it as going after *those* people, but ends up punishing poor people in general regardless of color. But yeah I can definitely see further expansion of the prison 'work program' industry, especially if wage hike pressures continue.

If there's a shred of a silver lining it's that a total elimination of Roe might finally be enough of a fire to force Breyer out while there's still a chance to replace him :rubby: :smithicide:

Manchin would vote against anyone worth putting up. I don't even need special future seeing glasses to know Breyer won't leave before the midterms and when he dies on the court, republicans will have the senate again.
