Huge win tonight in Kansas. Now the question is, does the forced-birth crowd dial back their rhetoric, maybe admit that 10-year-olds giving birth after rape is not a god-given miracle? Or do they double down and take more heavy losses? barfo
Ink wasn't dry on white supremacist court decision before Republicans tried to outdo each other in passing antiwoman laws. These Republican politicians and anti women's rights activists do want raped 10 year olds and women with partial miscarriages to bleed out for two weeks. But most actual women, even those who consider themselves conservative, don't. When Biden issued executive order that hospitals had to treat women in immediate life threatening situations, Republican attorneys general filed lawsuit against it. Because hospitals should be allowed to let women die. They are now talking about outlawing birth control. Of women who are or have been in hetero relationships, more than 95% use birth control. They probably could have passed a 12 week abortion ban. But their absolute determination to force every woman, barely pubescent girl and other pregnant people to carry every pregnancy no matter what backfired. Their positions are unpopular. It's why they have to use bogey persons to rile the base.
There is no apostrophe in persons. Auto correct put it in and won't let me edit. I know correct punctuation.
They will double down. They look to be going all in. They are getting invested in this bullshit to the point they won't be able to afford to fold.
True. It will delay things, however it doesn't necessarily prevent punishment from occurring. https://www.nytimes.com/2021/06/08/us/politics/fec-democrats-republicans.html Still a travesty though...

The video makes a good point. The SC is going to take on Moore vs Harper next year, and probably make the independent state legislature theory (Which they used to put Bush Jr in the Whitehouse over Gore) their next ruling. It will give state legislatures the right to reject the voters and pick their own candidate. Since Republicans have been long gerrymandering and have control unceasing control at the state level in many states, including battleground states that Biden won in 2020, they will be able to overturn the vote if he wins in those states again, putting the Republican in the Whitehouse. A Dem won't be able to win the presidency again.
Today a Florida DA was hauled out of his office with no notice and removed from his job by a swat team for saying he wouldn't prosecute doctors over abortions ....he hadn't done anything but talk so this is a fascist move by DeSantis strong arming public officials the way Kim Jong Un would ...the guys wasn't allowed to talk with his staff...gather his things or anything. This is the state of Florida today and this is from the office of the guy Republicans want to elect to the presidency.....by very aware of what's happening around the GOP....it's steamrolling democracy and paving the way for leader by dictatorship. Fuck the Republican Party
Prosecutors have leeway in what they pursue. They can charge, plea bargain, decide not to charge. This state attorney was elected, twice. He also said he would not prosecute parents of trans youth. DeathSantis doesn't care about what the people of the state wants.
Marraige is a contract between two parties. I'm not sure why the state or federal government should be involved...
Because it cheapens straight marriage. If you want to spend your life with the same sex you follow Jesus' example and call them apostles.
