So the Tennessee legislature has expelled Justin Jones for protesting, but did NOT expel Gloria Johnson who was protesting alongside him.

They did the same thing. The difference is he’s black and she's white. They shouldn’t be permitted to expel anyone but the racism speaks volumes.

What a sh1thole country.

They expelled both Black members but not the white woman. If it wasn't so horrendous their cartoonish level of racism might be funny.

There’s like 5-10 people here that are obsessed with how many thanks other people get so they pretend those people must be posting for thanks to make themselves feel better.

I love how they're the same people that also think you're following them around just because you both happened to post in one of the 3 active threads at that time

I believe the venn diagram is “Thinks others post for thanks,” “Thinks others follow them around,” and “Thinks everything they disagree with is groupthink” and the extremely large area where all three overlap is labelled “undiagnosed mental illness.”

They're not just not hiding it, they're shoving the racism in everyone's faces.

It's amazing how stupid the human race is.

They have to prove Patton Oswalt wrong.

country is really steamrolling its way back towards 19th century. Crazy to see.

Abortion access in the U.S. was dealt a major blow Friday as a far-right federal judge in Texas halted the Food and Drug Administration’s approval of mifepristone, potentially laying the groundwork to bar access nationwide to an abortion pill that’s used by hundreds of thousands annually.

But the situation only sank further into uncertainty after another federal judge, just minutes later, issued an opposing order that instructed the FDA to continue to allow the drug to be dispensed.

Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk, an appointee of former President Donald Trump who’s become notorious for spewing ultra-conservative views far outside mainstream opinion, first ruled to suspend the drug’s approval after anti-abortion groups had petitioned him to do so.
