It is a known fact that anti choice, anti-gun control, and anti-democracy people shout from the rooftops that God and goodness are on their side.

And they need to know that others see their beliefs as gross.

As we head into a new time of struggle we're going to be seeing more reasons to band together and let our leaders know what we think, we decided to demystify what it means to go to a protest. This is not everything there is to know but its a good starter position.

Chief Justice Roberts (and other justices) have been going on a charm offensive to deny the blatant politicization of the Supreme Court. We think he's full of BS.

And of course we discuss Biden's new Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson.Sources: https://www.newsweek.com/dont-destroy-americans-trust-supreme-court-opinion-1630861 (https://www.newsweek.com/dont-destroy-americans-trust-supreme-court-opinion-1630861)https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2021/oct/21/americans-no-longer-have-faith-in-the-us-supreme-court-that-has-justices-worried (https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2021/oct/21/americans-no-longer-have-faith-in-the-us-supreme-court-that-has-justices-worried)https://www.baltimoresun.com/opinion/editorial/bs-ed-1005-supreme-court-bias-20211004-77w2ksar45gjrog5s2uwsx56ri-story.html (https://www.baltimoresun.com/opinion/editorial/bs-ed-1005-supreme-court-bias-20211004-77w2ksar45gjrog5s2uwsx56ri-story.html) https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/09/23/supreme-court-has-only-itself-blame/ (https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2021/09/23/supreme-court-has-only-itself-blame/)https://www.vox.com/22575435/voting-rights-supreme-court-john-roberts-shelby-county-constitution-brnovich-elena-kagan (https://www.vox.com/22575435/voting-rights-supreme-court-john-roberts-shelby-county-constitution-brnovich-elena-kagan)https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/has-supreme-court-lost-its-legitimacy-ncna966211 (https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/has-supreme-court-lost-its-legitimacy-ncna966211)https://www.salon.com/2021/12/21/its-long-past-time-for-democrats-to-stand-up-to-the_partner/ (https://www.salon.com/2021/12/21/its-long-past-time-for-democrats-to-stand-up-to-the_partner/) https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory/media-barred-justice-gorsuch-talk-federalist-society-82610921 (https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory/media-barred-justice-gorsuch-talk-federalist-society-82610921)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federalist_Society (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federalist_Society)https://www.npr.org/2022/02/22/1082461546/no-medals-for-2022-beijing-olympics-the-games-drew-their-lowest-u-s-ratings-ever?fbclid=IwAR1Y5yWcP9dx0RDqqwUFr_ing_M5JIu4Qi4jjXSWzqoxWCj8yIOgZTel5Ug (https://www.npr.org/2022/02/22/1082461546/no-medals-for-2022-beijing-olympics-the-games-drew-their-lowest-u-s-ratings-ever?fbclid=IwAR1Y5yWcP9dx0RDqqwUFr_ing_M5JIu4Qi4jjXSWzqoxWCj8yIOgZTel5Ug)
