What I want to know is, Why is it the religious zealots who tell everyone to pray after a mass Shooting in a school or a Las Vegas outdoor concert and do nothing about it with their representative authority.

Go through 50 years of a right for a powan to choose her reproductive fate, . Angrily opposing it with the Variant Christian notion that abortion is against the Bible. It is not.
To a court that uses its religious faith to decide laws.

That is the theocracy and what funded that notion and funded putting these people on the high court is the Fascism.

Our first amendment , Shall not establish a religion and freedom of religion.
Was dismissed out of the constitution by the SCOTUS chosen ones to force governments to pick the religion donor plate that the tax dollars I am forced to pay for my government will now be used to pad the donor plate of the religion the Governor choses or the legislature choses. But not me.

I recall way back in the day that tax dollars could not be used by government to fund abortions.

It is the libertarian Christian fascist who demanded tax dollars not be allowed to fund abortions and now with their justices. They mandate our tax dollars go to the church donor plate to institutionalize and radicalize religious zealots that can go out and find people like me and scorn me for being a sinner.

Thomas has come right out in front of god and everybody and said that Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell should be overturned, but has been thus far conspicuously quiet about Loving.
Fuck 'em. Fuck 'em all.
We all knew this was inevitable the moment Fergus 'won" in 2016.
But her emails.
It's kinda hard some days to not just get really angry at the same schmucks who facilitated Fergus' rise to the presidency, but that is not a productive use of the limited energy we all have to fight back against the fascism here and now.
It was bracing listening to Rachel Maddow describe the machine the goddamn Republicans have built to tear the country down, because she was just describing something that we all know and take for granted. It did kind of tune my radar for news items that describe events that will become cases the SCOTUS will use to destroy our civil rights each and all, though, but fat lot of good that will do me. The tag line on a blog I'm fond of reading is "Cassandra's grandson."
Thank you again for the podcast. I might just have to send you another picture of our same cat, as all of my other animal photo sources are currently MIA, and can you really blame them?
