A federal judge blocked most of a law championed by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis ÂŽ that strictly limited transgender health care for adults and banned it completely for children.
In his decision, U.S. District Judge Robert L. Hinkle rejected a common mantra of the DeSantis administration, saying that âgender identity is real,â and that the state cannot deny transgender individuals treatment.
âFlorida has adopted a statute and rules that ban gender-affirming care for minors even when medically appropriate,â Hinkle wrote. âThe ban is unconstitutional.â
Just one supreme court justice flip would do wonders. Two would give us the edge. If I have only one reason to ask people to vote for Biden, itâs that.
even if Biden doesnât do anything, there is a real possibility that if the other guy becomes president two old farts retire just before they die and let him appoint two more young demons to serve a lifetime.
hell, they donât even pretend to give a shit about democracy anyway, Iâm not even sure they wonât kill one of the liberal justices.
I donât see how this relates to my comment? You canât dig up fortitude to install a Supreme Court Justice. You either own the presidency and the numbers in congress, or you donât. The Supreme Court is directly tied to the long-term voting patterns of our citizenry and thatâs why it looks the way it does right now.
You are completely correct. Weâd first need a strong majority in Congress to impeach Alito. That would have to coincide with a Democratic President in office for appointment of a Democratic Justice.
The solution to this is the same as itâs ever been. Vote blue no matter who. Disengagement leads to low turnout, which leads to Republican wins, which leads to regression of policy and more centrist Democratic candidates to capture more of the centrist vote from Republicans.
If Democrats consistently maintained strong turnout and wins, primaries would become the new elections.
