The Handmaiden


 It's scary, Amy Coney Barrett was confirmed as a new Supreme Court justice. The Affordable Care Act, reproductive rights, gay rights including the right to marry, are in danger with this extreme right wing new judge. Did you know she played a role, when the 2000 election was contested with the close outcome between Bush and Gore? I wonder how history would be today if Gore had been the one who got in? Leonard Leo of The Federalist Society--the group which has supported Barrett as the new choice, has done speeches with The National Council for Policy, an extremely right wing Dominionist group.  It is like The Handmaiden's Tale is foretelling the future. I really hope Biden wins the presidency, I suppose we will know soon. There's some real forces destroying any semblance of democracy in America.
