King Joe and Queen Kamala have spoken
The topic? The dearly departed Equal Rights Amendment. I remember having to write about the ERA back in law school – and believe me, that was a long time ago.
Those two brilliant lawyers, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, seem to think they can revive it by fiat.
Actually, I don’t believe they really think that – although who knows what Joe thinks these days? They’re just messing with our minds in order to move the Overton window. The fact that they’re both saying this means it was orchestrated by the person or persons who have been orchestrating so very much during this administration.
And so we have this from Joe Biden:
Today I'm affirming what I have long believed and what three-fourths of the states have ratified:
The 28th Amendment is the law of the land, guaranteeing all Americans equal rights and protections under the law regardless of their sex. pic.twitter.com/oZtS6Q89zG

And this from Kamala Harris:
The Equal Rights Amendment is the 28th Amendment, and it is the law of the land. pic.twitter.com/jl1Ewg2JAf

And this from lawyers such as Jonathan Turley:
President Biden's recognition of the ERA as the 28th Amendment is the constitutional version of announcing that "I see dead people," but more unnerving. It takes an utter disregard for the constitutional process as well as reality…

Today I’m affirming
What I’ve long believed
And what most all sane folk know:
That Joe is a nullity nulling numbskull
On the take for the grease
For years our government has been run by people who think that if they speak the words, and everyone hears the words, then they have changed reality. This is just the latest iteration.
Both Biden and Harris are lawyers. Both suck at it.
Sen. Gillibrand, one of the harridans shrieking at Pete Hegseth, posted on X to encourage women in conservative states to sue to overturn “unconstitutional” restrictions now that the 28th Amendment was “law.” Gillibrand is also a lawyer.
Looks like this is a really dumb effort to overturn the Dobbs decision.
This is good news. Disconnection from reality greatly hinders the effectiveness of an enemy’s actions.
“They’re just messing with our minds in order to move the Overton window.” Bullseye.
And given the predictable acquiescence of the legacy / mainstream media, they may well succeed in reigniting discussion of the E.R.A.
I remember way back in the day when ERA was being debated that opponents were saying that it could lead to unisex bathrooms, sports, etc. Its proponents said that was ridiculous. Well it all happened without the ERA.
Open contempt for the Constitution, and why? To give the pussyhat crowd something new to scream in front of the cameras.
