Having Dark Brandon as President is almost like having Hillary. Has anyone noticed that?
Women and women's rights appear to be at the forefront of his Presidential brain. He started out, of course, by picking Kamala Harris as his running mate (And what a stellar job she's done as the nation's first female Vice President.) But that was just the beginning.
He worked with Congress to reauthorize and strengthen the Violence Against Women Act. He issued a Presidential memorandum to revoke the global gag rule on abortion counseling and services among nongovernmental organizations. (He has always supported codifying Roe into federal law, but we need Congress to do that.) He appointed Ketanji Brown Jackson to the US Supreme Court, and just named the first potential female member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. And more.
Today, Dark Brandon took prosecution of rape in the military out of the chain of command. How great is that? "Senior Biden administration officials said it was the most sweeping change to the military legal code since it was created in 1950," PBS reports.
Why is he so good for women? Has he been trying to make up for his ham-handed handling of Anita Hill when she testified to the Senate Judiciary Committee about Clarence Thomas? We're not sure — but whatever his motivation, American women have benefited. Including, perhaps, Vice President Harris, who could be on a path to election to the Presidency. Get back to us in 2028. Meanwhile, we cats PURR.
