Supreme Court Rules for Gay and Transgender Rights in the Workplace

“The Supreme Court ruled that bedrock federal civil-rights law prohibits employers from discriminating against workers on the basis of their sexual orientation or gender identity, a decision that for the first time extends federal workplace protections to LGBT employees nationwide.”

https://www.wsj.com/articles/supreme-court-rules-for-gay-rights-in-the-workplace-11592230310

Evangelicals may be a bit grouchy today.   My guess “all will be forgiven” if SCOTUS dismantles Roe v. Wade before the election.

The right wing is recirculating a meme of Biden pictured with an alleged KKK Grand Wizard. 

https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2020/06/14/fact-check-biden-isnt-kkk-grand-wizard-photo/3183887001/

There are myths about this from both sides. It would be nice to get the historical facts straight, but the important thing is where the political parties are today.

Fact: Robert Byrd was never a Grand Wizard, but was a local leader and organizer during the 1940s. He initially opposed civil rights legislation, but became an advocate. 

Fact: While only a few actual official Big D Dixiecrats ever became Republican, and details of southern strategies are contested, conservative southern Democrats began gradually migrating to the Republican Party more than 50 years ago. Others, like Byrd and Albert Gore Sr., moved to the left. Today, the heirs of demographic that opposed civil rights legislation are largely Republican.

“It’s One America News,” Gundy said of the network during an April news conference. “It was so refreshing. They just report the news. There’s no commentary. There’s no opinions. There’s no left. There’s no right.”

This is from last November and I am still not hearing much.

"The Republican Party has been hijacked by Trump into this crude nativist populism and dregs like Miller running wild in positions of power," Murphy said.

...

"The Republican leaders of one half-generation ago would have taken a very strong public line against this sort of stuff," Murphy said. "George H.W. Bush, George Bush, Ronald Reagan never would have tolerated any of this."

I think most of us probably hold non-Fox news to a little higher standard

I still have some fairly fond memories of Fox News; Tony Snow,  Britt Hume, Megyn Kelly, Shepard Smith.  To an extent Red Eye, Bill O'Reilly, Neil Cavuto,  and Greta Van Susteren. I remember when some thought FNC was going to moderate.  Instead they went all Tucker Carlson and Tomi Lahren.

In a way, Fox News is the tip of the iceberg.

Why didn't he say so earlier, when it was actually possible to impeach the president?

Anne Applebaum: “He [John Bolton] could have spoken to Robert Mueller. He could have given evidence in the House. He could have convened Republican Senators — they would have listened to him — to tell them how dangerous the president is. Instead he stayed silent…”

“All of his life he thought he was pushing America’s interests around the world. But when he had the opportunity to do something truly important for America — to torpedo this disastrous presidency — he failed.”

https://twitter.com/anneapplebaum/status/1273331935562158080

Better late than never I suppose, but doubt it would have made a difference to Republican Senators.  One thing’s for certain: Bolton’s still a vain, self-serving jerk.

Federalist Society

I handed my Federalist Society membership card to Antonin Scalia. I thought it would help grease the wheels of conversation, especially since I'd asked him an impudent question in his preceding Q&A.

He was vocally annoyed that everybody wanted to take a picture with him, rather than engage in substantive debate.
