   I’m 61, permanently disabled, and on SSDI. I am heading toward kidney failure. If Medicare is eliminated while I am a dialysis patient, that will be a death sentence for me, as I will have at most three weeks to live. I guess the “pro-life” party doesn’t give a carp if I die, as long as the money being spent to keep me alive goes back to the rich people to make them even richer. I’m just an inconvenience to them.

   You men aren’t the ones who are going to get screwed over by IQ47. Our rights are going to be taken away, not yours, because you are a man. You men in government will be making medical decisions for women, in effect declaring women are incompetent to make our own medical decisions without a court hearing in front of a judge, evidence given as to why a woman, or all women, is/are not mentally competent to make their own medical decisions. That’s called DUE PROCESS, and that’s in the Constitution. Dobbs violated DUE PROCESS. Dobbs also violated the 14th Amendment, which deals with forced servitude, as in forcing a woman to carry a fetus against her will. You should be made to live your life as a woman, putting up with discrimination in the workplace, being paid less than a man for doing the same job, what it’s like to be a sexual assault survivor (I was sexually assaulted at the age of 8 by 2 men in my neighborhood), physically assaulted by a male co-worker while on the job (he was never punished, despite several co-workers witnessing said assault). You men have absolutely no clue of what you speak.

   We will be going backwards, not forwards. “Take America Back” means taking this country back to the 1850’s, when women and people of color had no rights, and were the property of men (and made their decisions for them), and when workers had no rights. The working class at that time worked until they died, as there was no Social Security to tap into so that they could afford to retire. That was for the benefit for their employers— for the working class to be worked to death. That is what they (the CDP Party) wants us to go back to. Eff the workers any and all ways that they can, so that tRump and his wealthy backers can get even wealthier.

   Then why did he have his minions hold up military promotions? Raises for these military promotions were held up, too. That sounds like disrespect and disdain for those who are serving.

   Thank you for serving our country. Don’t forget he also called those who served “losers”. On November 5, 2024, the Republican Party officially became the CDP Party. The Crime Does Pay Party.

   That happened to a man I know. His wife had to sneak him into a side door at their GP’s office (to avoid women and children in the waiting room) to alleviate the situation. He said that he was in the most pain he had ever experienced in his life. After that, he stopped taking ED medication.

   All Mexicans are rapists. Yes, he said that. Migrants from Mexico and other South American countries are invaders and vermin. Yes, he said that, too.

   As I like to say, the rich got the cake, the poor got the crumbs. When it comes time to pay for the cake, the poor got presented the bill.

   Kleptocracy. Oligarchy. Kakistocracy.

    The Republican party, long touting themselves as the “Law and Order Party”, has just shown the world that CRIME DOES PAY. In the past, only s-hole countries and banana republics elected convicted felons to the highest position in the land. Beginning January 20, 2025, a convicted felon will swear on a Bible, promising to uphold the Constitution and our laws. A convicted felon. I am so disgusted that I haven’t been able to keep food down for the last 24 hours.
