Happy Disablity Pride Month to everyone who is *just* on the cusp of being ‘abled looking’ that you don’t think you’re qualified to count as disabled.

Happy Disability Pride Month to everyone who has had a documented disability since the day they were born but has never checked the ‘i have a disability’ box on those workplace forms because you don’t think it counts.

Happy Disability Pride Month to everyone whose parents convinced them that because they could *mostly* act like the other kids that their disability wasn’t a problem.

Happy Disability Pride Month to everyone whose parents who helped you with tasks on one hand while expecting you to keep up with your abled siblings on the other.

Happy Disability Pride Month to everyone whose religion told you that when you died and went to heaven your body would be fixed and you would become ‘perfect’.

Happy Disability Pride Month to everyone who realizes that a certain thing they go through every day for years is not a thing everyone just goes through, because that’s just their forever level of normal.

Happy Disability Pride Month to everyone who has to listen to abled people say ‘i know how you feel because x thing happened to me so i get it’ even though they don’t because you never got a ‘before’.

Happy Disability Pride Month to everyone who has to listen to abled people say ‘me too’ when you try and tell them literally anything.

Happy Disability Pride Month to everyone with a disability who didn’t know July was Disability Pride Month.

I keep seeing the idea that the Supreme Court is un-impeachable and it’s NOT TRUE. Supreme court justices can be impeached, and have. Samuel Chase was impeached in 1809. Abe Fortas resigned rather than be impeached in 1969. Fourteen other federal judges (also lifetime appointments) have also been impeached.

And there is grounds for impeachment for several of them. Lying to the Senate during your confirmation hearing is Federal Perjury. They have comitted public crimes.

Call your congresspeople. Let them know you want these criminals removed from their authority. They are not untouchable.

I quick reblogged this while I was on a work call, but now that I’m off… 

You need to bring up specifics. Ask your congress people for specific actions.

So we need to:

  • Impeach Justice Thomas for the many times he failed to recuse himself (including this one) when he had financial motivation to vote in a specific manner AND for his wife’s role in January 6 and his leveraging of his position for her benefit. 
  • Impeach Justice Kavannaugh for his misleading words to the Senate during his confirmation hearings regarding his stance on Roe v Wade.
  • Impeach Justice Gorsugh for his misleading words to the Senate during his confirmation hearings regarding his stance on Roe v Wade.

Focus on Thomas because he has the most evidence and most compelling case. 

Example script:

I am __ and I am a constituent of ___. I am calling concerning what I believe to be gross misconduct and “Bad Behavior” from (a) member(s) of the Supreme Court. It has come to my attention that Justice Thomas received financial incentive that may have informed his vote in the recent case that overturned Roe v. Wade and others. I think his conduct requires congressional review an I think it is right for ___ call for his impeachment. Furthermore, I have heard various Senators express they were mislead and lied to by Justices Kavannaugh and Gorsuch during their confirmation hearings. I believe this to be “Bad Behavior” worthy of impeachment and congressional review as well. Thank you.

“Bad behavior” is important because it is the language used in the Constitution. 

Be specific and pass it on!
