I’m sorry but the richest man on the planet casually telling a woman he’s not dating that he’s going to put a baby in her is so skin crawlingly creepy I don’t know where to start

I don't know why the Federalist Society is trending but I'll add that they are primarily responsible for the revocation of reproductive rights, voting rights, and re-introduction of graft into the judicial process.

Lol remember when Texas quietly banned affirmative action between 1996-2003 (Hopwood v. Texas) and left unchecked, UT admitted 65-70% white students and Austin was like WHITE white and that drove a huge wave of gentrification that started the homelessness crisis lmao good times🤘🏽
