Woke, defined:

Positive definition-increased awareness of very real historical and existing systemic injustice.

Negative definition-illiberal progressivism centered around race/gender.

Bad faith right-wing definition-anything even one millimeter to the tweeter's left.

Most sensible people would say they got it because the administration was open to considering people regardless of their sexual orientation, gender, gender ID etc (in the last 30 years, every single GOP justice bar one has been a straight white, Christian male; the exception being a straight white, hardline catholic woman). And even if you go with your spin, there's nothing wrong with breaking glass ceilings as long as the person is qualified. Once the ceiling is broken, its not an issue anymore. Credit to Ronald Reagan back in the day for appointing Sandra Day O'Connor.

And yes, Brown Jackson did end up on the selection list because they wanted a black woman. But they didn't just open the phone book and randomly pick out black women. She was given the highest rating by the ABA. And she seems to be doing just fine, holding her own. Anyway, last time out, the Dems did go the straight white male route, but McConnell wouldn't even give the poor man a vote, nine months before the election.

Did you know that pedophiles no longer exist

They’re now called “minor attracted persons”

And rapists-well they can no longer be sent to male prisons if they decide to “identify” as a woman. They have to be sent to a female jail

And your clubs county championship winning girls team, well next week they’re going to get hammered by about 30 points by a team fielding 3 or 4 players who are biologically male, but who identify as female

And the club name….well that has to change. Naming clubs after Catholic Saints or clergy is exclusionary.

He was in the Ukraine the other week, he can't be in all places all the time.. Is that the best you can do for having a go?

They don't like it when you call it "The" Ukraine. Its a throwback to the USSR where every territory had The at the start of it.

Maybe he thinks it will be more effective than his attempt to have a go at Biden last week for the SVB collapse.;D

All as he wines about the NYC investigation into Trump’s payoff of the pornstar Trump was screwing while his wife breastfed his youngest kid and the GOP presidential hopefuls and their acolytes ape the Putin line on Ukraine.
