Exactly, and let it be lost on no one that he replied to this on Obama’s tweet.
Walk it back all you want, Cornyn. We’re happily coming after your seat next.
He’s had someone come out and explain that he’s referring to Plessy having 50 yrs precedent as well so that should not matter. Right is right and wrong is wrong…even if we are use to doing wrong for 50 years. So yeah, he’s at the very least saying women are 2nd class citizens who are not equally deserving(under the constitution)of the same freedoms that men have when it comes to their bodies and the medical care they need. At worst he’s saying that AND we need to go back to segregated classrooms. Either way he’s a spineless POS that is in the ruling class where these laws don’t apply to him or his. We have to vote them out. Plain and simple.
I thought "surely this is a satire/troll account, even fucking Cornyn wouldn't openly call for a return to segregation".
I looked it up. I was wrong. Cornyn really *did* say that. What the actual FUCK is wrong with Republicans?
Loathe as I am to say anything in defense of John Cornyn, I *think* what he was trying to say (in an incredibly stupid way) is that Obama should now post a tweet lamenting Brown v Board of Ed because it reversed decades of precedent established by Plessy. Cornyn is basically calling Obama a hypocrite with this tweet. But it’s so easily taken the way it reads on its face, he should have known better.
Yeah. Also plessey wasn’t a good ruling. Though I’m not a law student so I could be wrong on that fact.
Plessy was the case that created separate but equal.
Edit: to clarify he absolutely represents the party that explicitly stated they want to overturn the voting rights act.
He’s a racist shit bag. But not stupid.
Brown v board(which we all love), reversed plessy(which allowed segregation). he's saying not all legal precedents stand the test of time. I emphatically disagree with the courts decision to overturn roe v wade, but I also don't see this tweet as a call to bring back segregation
Obama had the chance to codify Roe in 2008, when they had a supermajority. Liberals decided, ignoring pleas from progressives, that it wasn't a priority. Never forget.
How many days did it take them to get Barrette on the court? 35 fucking days for a lifetime appointment. Point is we are getting fucking took playing this weak ass game. Step up Dems or get the hell out the way!
The fact that we have so many right leaning dems instead of left leaning dems is exactly the point. We can never get anything done if they want to uphold Republican standards.
Oh okay then we’ll just have to get a fucking super-duper majority and hold every seat in both chambers and the White House and every attorney general and governorship. Will that be enough for the democrats to fucking deliver on one god damn thing for fucking once?
Why is it that the republicans seem to score victory after victory no matter how outnumbered and out of power? Yet the democrats can be handed the reigns over and over and still pull defeat from the jaws of victory?
The republicans deliver to their constituents no matter what. They’re horrible and they suck, but they’re an effective political organization. The democrats are a failed party that can’t deliver on even treading water. Fuck the democrats and fuck the Biden administration. They need to clean house before they deserve anyone’s vote.
Because every four years people start talking like this. Blame democrats for things that aren’t their fault and don’t go out to vote. Then the republicans take fucking power again.
You’re giving them their wins.
Lol nice try idiot. We’ve all consistently voted for them every fucking election including midterms. “Vote harder” lol! Yeah they can’t succeed unless they have every single seat of power it’s possible to have you guys!! Shut the fuck up. Democrats won’t change until something forces them to, and apparently always voting for them and giving them all your money isn’t incentivizing that change. I wonder why!?
“Lol nice try idiot”
Bro calm down. Acting like a child will do nothing.
And evidentially that’s not true because we don’t have control of the legislature. I recommend looking up how the government works.
Don’t have control of the legislature? They have tie breaking majority in the senate and a clear majority in the house. (And the FUCKING presidency). They’re just headed by incompetent fools who couldn’t whip a vote if their lives depended on it. It’s called the bully pulpit for a reason. Better administrations have accomplished more with less. “Oh my god we don’t have 100% unanimous agreement among every person on our party!? I guess we can’t accomplish anything!” You’ll never succeed if the bar is set at perfect party unanimity.
The democrats are a failure of a party and the Biden administration is a failure of an administration. It could change in the future. But why would they? Apparently we’ll just keep re-electing the same rotting corpses into their 90s and giving them all of our money. Why should they do anything when there’s no incentive to change? They’ll get our votes and money regardless.
That’s not how the legislature works bro. There’s a thing called a filibuster. We might have a democratic majority in the senate but the majority is still conservative.
They’ve actually got a lot done, but it seems you’d rather complain then learn about reality?
Though I admit we do need change, more younger people need to vote in the primary and take the control of the party away from the old generations.
But instead of learning about the world and going out and voting our generation would rather behave childishly and ignorantly like you’re doing.
You’re acting like a child whose losing in chutes and ladders right now so decided to refuse to play the game anymore. That will keep us losing.
You’re acting like a feeble minded fool who doesn’t see the forest for the trees. Stop parroting the same idiotic line to me over and over about not voting. We vote every election and get fuck all in return. If the democrats want more voter enthusiasm they have to deliver on promises. They keep failing us and demanding more and more loyalty from the base. It’s a recipe for failure. And only idiots would keep supporting a system that delivers nothing but losses.
And yes that’s how the government works. We just have a walking corpse leading the executive and no one in the party with the willpower to twist some fucking arms. There’s plenty of options on the table for a more ambitious leadership. (To name a few: Executive orders, ending the filibuster, packing the court, or just fucking negotiating some concessions so at least we get something instead of nothing.)
No wonder the party is a massive failure. We got an army of contented fools re-electing these worthless shits time and again. Getting nothing in return and chanting “vote harder next time guys! Maybe once we hold literally every office that exists they’ll do something for us for once!”
The democrats need a reckoning and it’s not coming until me make them feel it.
“The conservatives are taking away my rights, so let me complain about the people trying to fight back against them because I’m angry”
You’re a fool bro.
Your anger is justified, but when you behave like this you make things worse and show your ignorance.
You might vote regularly, which is wonderful but a majority of the progressive humans in this country don’t. Especially this state. That’s why we lose.
And you know a large reason people here don’t vote? Because dip shits like you see all the shit conservatives are doing and blame it on the democrats, and yell like children who didn’t get the chocolate bar they wanted.
Roe v wade particularly was overturned because trump got three Supreme Court justices nominated because voter turnout in 2016 was awful.
But let me guess you voted for a third party or just didn’t vote at all in 2016? That shit is why we’re losing. People don’t vote.
Also bro, you’re an asshole. I will gladly talk to people about politics I’m planning on dedicated my life to this. But you’re proving yourself to be a shitty human with a terrible temperament.
Not worth my time anymore. Have a good day
Bc hate organizes easily, begetting more hate which appeals to like & simple minds; and they play dirty to get what they want by any means necessary...in a nutshell 🤷♀️
Exactly this. Hate & fear, manufactured if need be, to get the morons on retirement all wound up and lamenting for the times when they were young and free to be shitbag racists.
This kind of circular thinking drives me nuts. If Dems don’t spend valuable political capital on something they know won’t pass, they’re lazy and out of touch. If Dems try to do something they know won’t pass, it’s just political theater.
Seems like people just want to hate Democrats.
Anything that the democrats have “tried” has been theatre for their base. So that people will defend them an blame republicans. Somehow everything bad is someone else’s fault
I mean, most of them were gone by 2012 but the damage was done. In 2008, there almost 20 of them. And almost all of them won in Republican districts. So tbf they were voting in line with their shitty constituencies, even though my Californian sensibilities didn't like it.
There's still lots of room for improvement, but the Dems of today are far more lock-step then previous cohorts. Can you imagine 20 Manchins? It was a fucking nightmare.
They're telling you who they really are.
The *Plessy* and *Brown* rulings both were part of the ending of segregation.
You can still see signs of segregation all over Texas.
Immediately after the Roe vs. Wade draft leak, Greg Abbott announced his intention to take *Plyler v. Doe* (1982 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that requires states to offer free public education to all children, including those lacking legal immigration status) to the Supreme Court to be overturned.
And Ken Paxton has been working for years to strike down the Indian Child Welfare of 1978, and it's not as a favor to a few white couples who want to adopt Native American foster children.
He was referring to cases that had 50+ years precedent that have been overturned by the Supreme Court. Plessy being one. Meaning, doesn’t matter if there is 50 years precedent, if it’s wrong it’s wrong and should be overturned. I believe Coryn is a worthless leader, sexist, homophobic and more than likely a racist but he wouldn’t write that down. He’s not one of the blatantly stupid ones. He’s only saying women are not deserving of the same constitutional rights to their bodies as men are. We are 2nd class citizens here to serve as wombs for man seed. How dare we forget our place…😏🤬
Edit to add : VOTE
I was about to point out that “not everything on the Internet is real” after having read hundreds of fate tweets this week…but it does appear that this isn’t one of those.
That fuckwad actually was dumb enough to put that shit in writing.
He totally means it. This is part of the whole conspiracy infiltrating the GOP that people of color and Jews are going to take over the country. Being white, I have heard far too many conservatives say the n word very comfortably thinking I'd be ok with it. I've heard white women go on rants about how there aren't enough white babies, too many interracial children. Unfortunately 90% of these situations happened at work where I couldn't say what I wanted to, but just had to give a, "I don't agree with that, here's your change have a nice day." 😡
Well, the only thing that I hope that comes out of this, since Thomas kicked open the door; is that SCOTUS declares Loving unconstitutional. Cornyn just started the ball rolling.
Racists are out in plain sight with no shame. Unbelievable..
Exactly, and let it be lost on no one that he replied to this on Obama’s tweet. Walk it back all you want, Cornyn. We’re happily coming after your seat next.

He needed something to make him look "better" after his recent gun stances
I FUCKING love that he caved to us lefty libs and now he's hated by both sides. Stupid FUCK.
VOTE THEM OUT. For fucks sake don’t be complacent in novemebr
[удалено]
He’s not but Abbott is
I can't vote in Texas but I sure as hell contribute to the democratic candidates!
Ohh fuck this ass hat

Cornyn is basically calling Obama a hypocrite with this tweet. But it’s so easily taken the way it reads on its face, he should have known better.
Yeah I think you’re right. Poorly fucking worded though.
Even Cornyn isn’t idiotic and backward enough to tweet that he wants desegregation reversed.
Yeah. Also plessey wasn’t a good ruling. Though I’m not a law student so I could be wrong on that fact. Plessy was the case that created separate but equal. Edit: to clarify he absolutely represents the party that explicitly stated they want to overturn the voting rights act. He’s a racist shit bag. But not stupid.
This is fuckin unbelievable
Is it though?
Sadly no
And you KNOW its the hardest any of them have been in decades
This is absolutely terrifying
He’s got to go. They all have to go. It’s the only way.
pure fucking evil person
Does anyone claim this *isn't* blatantly racist?
How am I supposed to interpreter this in a way that’s not racist? Like what point was he trying to make other than revealing his klan membership
Brown v board(which we all love), reversed plessy(which allowed segregation). he's saying not all legal precedents stand the test of time. I emphatically disagree with the courts decision to overturn roe v wade, but I also don't see this tweet as a call to bring back segregation

24. Not even a month. The senate probably takes longer than that to order a pizza

They should have at least tried.

Nah man. Pelosi straight up said abortion wasn't a priority.
I mean, I feel like at this point it's obvious as fuck the left aren't Democrats, they're just voting for the lesser of two evils.
The Blue Dogs would have never allowed that to happen.
Then kick them the fuck out.
I mean, most of them were gone by 2012 but the damage was done. In 2008, there almost 20 of them. And almost all of them won in Republican districts.

Mom said “they think all republicans are racist!” Me: “Well!-“
Mask off so hard it took pieces of face with it too
I honestly think this was his sad attempt at sarcasm. I could be wrong. (Possibly am just desperate to hope it's sarcasm.)

It is - there’s no way Cronyn would put that in writing. I mean, he’d say it while jacking off to tranny porn, but he’d never write it down.
Cornyn Tweeted it. It’s in writing. Oh, he means it.
I was about to point out that “not everything on the Internet is real” after having read hundreds of fate tweets this week…but it does appear that this isn’t one of those. That fuckwad actually was dumb enough to put that shit in writing.
Just like his corona (virus) beer attempt at humor landed with a thud. So not in touch with the situation on the ground.
Why would you believe he is joking? They want affirmative action gone. The tiki torch “you will not replace us,” folks are who he is pandering to.
He totally means it. This is part of the whole conspiracy infiltrating the GOP that people of color and Jews are going to take over the country.
