14th amendment: No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States.  Its time that amendment was challenged again vis a vis these continued attacks on American citizens by state governments.
It’s amazing how these red states spend their time on this shit instead of actually improving the lives of their citizens. >

The whole point is to drive out "liberal" voters & make the area "inhospitable" for everyone but Evangelical Christian Nationalists... It's kinda like "gerrymandering" except on a national level. Josh Hawley has been very open that this is the plan & that Republicans want to cause a "realignment" of voters in these states. >

Could you help me out with a link here ?  I would really like to read this.  Not dissing you, my Google fu is not working today, I am being genuine >

Thanks ! >

If that state shifts any further right it’s going to fall into the Atlantic Ocean! >

Yes but not at the cost of equality. >

Because Republicans understand that the purpose of government is to bully the queer kids in school. >

Missouri is governed with scientific ignorance coupled with religious bigotry, misogyny and homophobia. >

You can mad lib quite a few states into that sentence and it would still be correct. >

Yep. >

Still reeling from covid, rampant inflation, unaffordable housing making home ownership effectively impossible for a generation, school shootings, climate change, violent extremists —- but yeah something something transgender issues are the defining political debate of our time. 
Fuck the fuck off, republicans. >

And they distract you with a woman’s arms. >

That's not a shift to the right.  That's a shift to American citizens being attacked by a state government.  The Federal government needs to weigh in on this hard.  So that the republicans think twice about continued attacks against American citizens. >

It is not a shift, either .
Fed republicans are pretty on board with this and control congress .  Not sure where you think the cavalry is coming from ?
Mcarthy just sold out ss and the nation’s economy and all the ammendments except 2 to whomever would vote for home as speaker add acknowledged trump as the dear leader . >

dems control the senate and the presidency.  The senate could open up investigations (based on 14th amendment protectiions) into republican states that are attacking citizens.  DOJ could start criminal proceedings against states attacking citizens based on 14th amendment protections.
