I am thankful for RBG for many reasons. I think people have negative feelings towards #RBG due to being liberal. But because of women like #RuthBaderGinsburg I was able to have an abortion, a safe abortion. Many people have. I thank her for that everyday. #ihadanabortion #RIPRBG
The fact that these monsters are already trying to replace Justice Ginsberg, is just so awful and a clear indication of what kind of people we are dealing with here. She only passed a couple of hours ago, and here they are. https://twitter.com/cnn/status/1307123556883599360?s=10
It's terrifying to think of who could they could put in her seat. It's despicable to me that they wouldn't even allow her family, and honestly, the country, mourn her, before pouncing on this. It's disgusting. It makes me furious and wonder how people cannot have any humanity.
It's not about politics, it's about humanity. Republicans constantly tote Christian "family values". I feel that, "family values" entails giving a family time to breathe when they're mourning. Announcing that they are "replacing" her within 2 hours of her death is not Christian.
Not caring about another person's life or their humanity, or the fact that they have died, and engaging in sinister activity is not Christian. They are also not family values. I am pretty sure when I read the Bible it didn't say anything about this, a matter of fact, it reminds..
...me of Revelation 14:13: "And I heard a voice from heaven saying, 'Write this: Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord from now on.' 'Blessed indeed,' says the Spirit, 'that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow them!'". I believe that this is one of the...
clear indications of what the Bible does and doesn't say. But, on the topic of Christianity and the Bible. As a young person in Southern Baptist Church, we had to memorize Bible verses for Sunday school. Anyway, one that I recall that I think sums Justice Ginsburg up the most...
is a favorite, Psalm 116:15, "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.". For me, that's how you treat a national tragedy like Justice Ginsburg. You honor her. McConnell & the Republicans are sinister for announcing a vote to "replace" her 2hrs after she died.
Republicans values are so out of whack with the rest of society, and they don't care. But that's why everyone is moving into action to stop them, and that's what's important. I am hopeful that it will be smacked down, & Trump won't get to nominate. #ORGANIZE #RIPRBG
I had a work call, but wanted to come back to this, as I didn’t get to mention any of the history around #RBG & the #Indigenous community. I told a friend I was, & they sent me this thread. There is so much more, too. Essentially, she selectively chose which civil rights mattered https://twitter.com/keinfoshop/status/1307110563856683008
