Why Nov 5, 2024, will go down in history

Because two things happened on that day.

1. Trump was elected President.
2. The South won the Civil War.


In addition to the Senate approving Trump’s incompetent, criminal, fascist Cabinet appointments, look for the following to happen in 2025.

Repeal the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Supreme Court will overturn: Griswold v. Connecticut; Obergrfell v. Hodges; Loving v. Virginia, and Brown v. Board of Education.

And Loving v. Virginia might make it a little awkward for Clarence Thomas to want to overturn Griswold and Obergefell since all of those cases are based on the same legal theory (as was Roe). That slope is pretty slippery.
