The Injustice of Injustice
Partisan politics has destroyed the moral compass of America and Democrats are spineless to stop it. A screaming, senseless man can lie in the world’s greatest court and still be bequeathed a spot to judge on it—for LIFE. Women are everywhere but they aren’t seen and what they say doesn’t matter because party rules and pain doesn’t matter, even to some people in my own (EXTENDED) family.
If you’re a woman, or know a woman, or care about women, or were born from a woman (shocker: EVERYONE ON EARTH), how can you watch and let this stand? When partisan politics let a female politician deride Franken one month and the next, laud a lying, seething Kavanaugh? To the highest court on earth? Consider for a moment what this means to women around you. Consider of your daughter or sister or friend or colleague found herself assaulted and now it’s clear is doesn’t matter—that you wouldn’t listen?
Supporting this is supporting power and privilege over justice, and while two Novembers ago I cried on the couch while watching this happen, I never knew it could get this bad. And I don’t know what I’m to do to stop it…it feels hopeless. Voting is one step, but is that even enough? What a false, fake time we find ourselves entering as the greatest country on earth.

I’m sorry Lexi, it freaks me out too.
