Listen up all my friends, who are rightfully really upset about Elizabeth Warren being pretty much out as a candidate, also about Amy Klobucher, Kamilla Harris, and Kristen Gillibrand, and more. Now we are left with a bunch of old white guys, again. Why? Let’s get real. Every right a woman has today, is through court rulings and Title 9. A woman has no constitutional right to equal anything. All of your gains could be stripped away by our now very conservative courts and Supreme Court. Our current Supreme Courts that is all about removing old precedents and rulings, like Rowe, maybe Brown vs Topeka. Mitch McConnell and Trump have been stacking the Federal Courts with really wacko conservative judges, who will make the world look like it was when Mitch was a young man. Hint, he was born in the South in 1942.
Do you know what women’s’ rights and let along civil rights were like in the 40s, 50s, 60s, and even 70’s? That’s what he is shooting for. Look at our President. Look at our current vice president. Our Vice President, who won’t be alone with a woman unless his wife is present.
Now just think IF Trump gets four more years, and then Ruth Bader Ginsberg dies and he gets to appoint another man to the Supreme Court. You know it will be a man or it will be some real nut job crazy woman like Laura Ingraham, imagine her on the Supreme Court.
Look right now. The only thing that could protect you from that is the Equal Rights Amendment (ERA). That would put a woman’s rights to equality in the Constitution. Now, enough States have voted for it (as of February), so it should be ratified and be in the Constitution as of February. But it is not, and McConnell, the Senate Republicans, Trump, and Bill Barr’s Justice Department are stopping it. Did you see any women in that list? So, if you want Elizabeth Warren to win, then you and I have serious sh&* to do to force the ERA into the Constitution. Otherwise, it really will soon be a Handmaid’s tale in America just like the 1940s when Mitch was a little boy growing up in the Jim Crow Alabama.
So ask yourself, which politicians have you heard talking about it. Climate change is our number one concern, but this, with the badness going on with Trump and McConnell is very close. So start posting, talking, calling, and organizing about this. Because if you don’t there may never be another serious female candidate for President.
I could tag every woman I know, but I won’t, so please read and if you agree then share, and then organize,
