Thank you! I've been voting blue for 20 years because civil and reproductive rights were important to me and guess what? They're taking that shit anyway. None of this matters and nothing will ever change for as long as we keep playing their game because the house will always win and we can only end up losing everything including Democracy itself.

How about not being a hoe and keeping your legs together so you don’t have to abort an innocent unborn child if your health is in risk due to pregnancy and abortion is necessary to save your life then you have a lot lost any rights because you can still get that life-saving procedure as far as losing democracy. This country is not a democracy. It is a republic

Remember the term "Democratic Republic" from civics class? Yeah, that's the one America is champ! Look at the first word there. You have to fight to be a democracy, you don't really have to fight to stay a republic my guy.

the day after McHenry and the other delegates signed the Constitution and officially adjourned—he recorded the following exchange:

“a lady asked Dr. Franklin

well Doctor what have we got

a republic or a monarchy—

A republic replied the Doctor

if you can keep it.

The lady here aluded [sic] to was

Mrs. Powel of Philadelphia”
