Yep. And Repubs have been doing this for at least the past 20 years. The rest of America is still mostly unaware of it and way behind in opposition to it via the ballot box.

WE (most of eligible voters) have failed time and time again over the years to vote in local and mid-term elections. Myself included.

Older White voters have always tended to vote in Every election. When I was growing up the same used to be true of Older Black voters as well.

And let’s keep it real. As has been widely reported by darn near Everybody- Black females have remained the strongest most faithful voters of the Democrat Party. If not for their overwhelming support the Dem party would have NO strong base to speak of.

Mitch McConnell just got two dozen conservative judges approved yesterday. They are stacking those lower courts.

You raise a very important point BD and I should’ve included that distinction in my initial response.

The merging of church and state in this country only relates to “Christianity” – specifically Conservative Christianity. Which from all that I’ve witnessed and read about the past 25 years is literally the Cult worshipping of Power. And not just power but Absolute power. Grab it and keep it by ANY means necessary for the sake of having it.

One need only remember to be sure to reference One’s “faith” when needed and/or simply hold up a Bible (upside down, right side up, sideways, it doesn’t matter). It’s just a photo-op. I could say more but I’ll stop here.

Will the appointment of Amy Coney Barrett to the US Supreme Court spell the death of multiple American rights as we know it? [….]

Hasn’t that frightening reality already begun as a result of the courts being packed with (ruled by) right-wing judges at local, state and federal levels?

If she gets on the court and starts making decisions putting religion over everything else that is a problem. A friend of mine was talking about this last night. What would people say if a Muslim got nominated and made decisions that had to do with what Allah wants? People would go crazy over that. It is the same thing.
