Comment on Mississippi Senator tells his constituents to 'get a life'
piefood@feddit.online 2 weeks agoYou mean the other side that has been building up and supporting these systems that keep them "powerless", even when they have had power? The same side that keeps capitulating and trying to "reach accross the isle"?

I mean the side that shouldn’t have to preemptively pass something that says “oh by the way the constitution still requires due process kthxbye” (and if they did, it’s not like that would have stopped anything), got a lot of federal judges confirmed in the last 4 years, and was at least able to get things passed like requiring ICE to allow members of Congress.
Do I wish they did things like codify Roe? Absofuckinglutely. If they changed the rules of the filibuster in the Senate to make that happen, do I fear what they’d justify doing the same over today? Yup. Does this make both sides the same? Hell. No.
