Wow, this is amazing news! Arizona rocks!
This article makes for a great read - and the photograph of smiling politicians is beautiful too. You can tell they're genuinely happy with their important accomplishment for women's rights.
Two notable paragraphs:
It was after the state Supreme Court cleared the way for enforcement that Hobbs urged the state Legislature to take imminent action to undo the ban before it went into effect. Republican lawmakers, who hold a narrow majority in both chambers, derailed discussions about repealing the ban. At one point, the roadblocks resulted in chants of “Shame! Shame!” by outraged Democratic colleagues.
Emotions on the House floor and in the gallery ran high as House Democrats were able to garner the support of three Republicans to pass the repeal legislation two weeks later, sending the measure to the Senate for consideration. Two GOP senators joined with Democrats a week later to grant final approval.
Special thanks to the Democrats for making this work! Plus a few stragglers from the other side.
Stating the obvious, though we don't need this reminder:
Both parties are not the same.
Thank you for sharing that.
This is crazy and extremely moronic on her part.
And interesting how she saw fit to wear a yellow star on that occasion. Seemingly likening being banned from a social networking platform to being the victim of genocide.
Concerning the original case with Judge Caroline Wall in 2023, the following - not from this article - is rather revealing:
Identifying as a Constitutional Conservative, Judge Wall has openly conveyed her commitment to “Exercising justice through Judeo-Christian values,” as stated on her campaign page. However, her principles and ideology have faced close scrutiny in light of her ruling to dismiss the lawsuit regarding the Tulsa Race Massacre.
Many have raised concerns regarding her pledges to “ensure people’s rights to swift justice” and “protect the rights of victims and juries,” given that these promises do not seem to align with her decision to deny the survivors of the Tulsa Race Massacre their opportunity for a day in court.
While Judge Caroline Wall’s social media presence appears to be minimal, she does maintain a Twitter account under the handle @realJudgeWall. Notably, Wall follows only three individuals on Twitter, one of them being Donald Trump.
And despite the (then) three centenarians in the original 2023 case attending all hearings, the Judge Caroline Wall was very peculiar in how she conveyed the verdict:
Judge Caroline Wall is also facing scrutiny for the manner in which the dismissal was communicated, or rather, the lack thereof. Attorney Damario Solomon-Simmons revealed that he learned of the dismissal through the news and did not receive formal documentation until after the press conference.
Fast-forwarding to today, I guess it was just convenient in the latest developments to just quietly dismiss the appeal attempt. i.e. since a Trump-inspired judge with Judeo-Christian values saw fit to deny justice to survivors of that horrible attack.
That raw Judeo-Christian hatred is palpable. You can feel it.
What a disappointment.
Leon Musk Space Karen is gross and he's probably upset over last night's debate tragedy.
The CRU subsequently reached out to Levy and asked him to review the record, including Alex’s full medical history and Kaye’s obstetrics record. Levy could have upheld his previous position or written a more measured reappraisal. Instead, after reviewing all the evidence, he unequivocally rejected his original findings and testimony.
I want to take a moment to show appreciation for people who admit they were wrong. Especially in a matter of such great importance.
I hope these charges can be vacated soon.
And kudos to ProPublica for being so amazing. A non-profit news source, I see. I'm very impressed and I should be donating. Their articles are quite eye-opening and their involvement at re-examining this case was key.
Past online messages from Gray were uncovered Friday, revealing the teen's history of anti-LGBTQ+ bias. The Washington Post and CNN each reported that Gray had previously threatened a mass shooting against queer people specifically, posting an image of a family being supportive towards their trans daughter to a Discord server and writing, “I need to put an end to that. … im on the edge of a lgbtq massacre.”
Aside from blatant right-wing deceit, it's shocking to see an adolescent think in this hateful way. And it sounds like his redneck father didn't help matters. I feel for the victims of this horribly violent attack and their loved ones. This is so sad.
