But you are Blanche

 Blanche: Jane, do you remember when I first came back after the accident?

Jane: You promised you wouldn't ever talk about that again.

Blanche: I know I did. But I'm still in this chair. After all those years, I'm still in this chair. Doesn't that give you some kind of responsibility? Jane, I'm just trying to explain to you how things really are. You wouldn't be able to do these awful things to me if I weren't still in this chair.

Jane: But you *are*, Blanche! You *are* in that chair!  imdb.com/ (What Ever Happened To Baby Jane)

 

Truth be told, except when you are either Baby Jane or a Republican in Amerika in the year 2024…

 

Why is anyone surprised when ANY REPUBLICAN is currently in office or dying to be elected to office? LIE? Let’s be honest Americans, REPUBLICANS LIE, LIE, LIE! ……..Kari Lake Pretends Not to Know Abortion Law She Specifically Endorsed. (New York Magazine)… Days after saying abortion should be left to the states, former President Trump criticized Arizona's ban for going too far. (MSNBC)… Somehow, it has become a common ailment for REPUBLICANS to feign amnesia regarding their HARD-LINE STANCE against Women’s Reproductive Rights when, in fact, Women’s Reproductive Rights have swiftly and severely been shredded away by REPUBLICANS!  Suddenly, the demise of Roe V Wade, which was heralded and hailed as a Sign of the Cross and celebrated as a victory for Republicans, which was an intentional action on their part, is being dismissed as a circumstance that appeared out of nowhere.

 

US aid to Ukraine is at a standstill, ground to a halt by mounting opposition from Republicans despite dire warnings from the White House and Kyiv.

While many are supportive of helping Ukraine, some have insisted that continued aid be tied to sweeping US immigration and asylum reforms.

Other conservative lawmakers have taken a harder line, opposing further Ukraine aid on ideological grounds. (BBC)…

The truth is that these same REPUBLICANS who could give one shit about DEMOCRACY thriving in UKRAINE also give no shits about DEMOCRACY thriving in America. This same group of REPUBLICANS, many of whom are in office because of undemocratic GERRYMANDERING, support TRUMP and his ambitions to become a DICTATOR, who have supported his attempted COUP and INSURECTION, and who have made it very clear that in their AMERIKA, no one is equal to them!
