It`s sad that literally I have to laugh to keep from crying, right? And so, what I am looking forward to is for aggression out of our U.S. Senate. We`ve got to expand the court and we`ve got to get rid of the filibuster. These are the only ways that we`re going to start to have some semblance of normalcy in this country. The fact that the Supreme Court is acting like this is an issue that we need to vacillate over, that they`re acting like Roe v. Wade didn`t take place like before I was ever like born, that is a problem.
