#SCOTUS has already started eroding women's #BodilyAutonomy by revoking the right to #Abortion. A number of Republicans are already talking about revoking a woman's right to #BirthControl (and to vote).

The #GOP wants to return to the era when #women were the property of men, to be used for purposes of procreation, male pleasure and/or housekeeping, unable to control their own bodies or their own lives without male permission.

@ProPublica

A number of #GOP candidates have stated they want to overturn the Griswold v Connecticut SCOTUS ruling.

Not only would this make it illegal for women to use birth control.

It would basically END the legal right to personal privacy for both women AND MEN.

@ProPublica Great info. You don't have to be all that knowledgeable about the #SCOTUS to glean that at a minimum, Thomas and Alito appear to be extremely poisonous to the court and the nation's welfare.

#SCOTUS no longer carry the torch of justice for everyone. It’s dictated by partisan agendas that are skewed to the right. Corporations are gaining rights & people are losing them.
