Abortion and the Politics of Reproductive Rights in the Post-Roe Era

[oblong]

So now they are treating their embryo persons with the same love they treat real kids who get shot in schools.  Expendable for political purposes.

Latest Trump interview - here’s his position 

“Former President Trump in a new interview suggested states with restrictive abortion bans might monitor women’s pregnancies and should be left to decide whether to prosecute women for having the procedure.”

 I am frightened for every woman in this country.

It’s not merely what he says… it’s what a lot of states will decide to attempt.

I get what you mean, but they are going to do that regardless of what Trump says. I'm more concerned that he can neuter the issue just by keeping his mouth shut about it, what I know is almost impossible, but who knows, maybe he gets smart about it for once.

Can’t say I’m all that surprised even though SCOTUS is now a political arm.  The wacko Christian Right helps with Conservative votes but Big Pharma still pays the bills.

They did it to try to put out the fire for the election, knowing more cases are coming their way.  This was an easy one for them.

So glad I got people on the Alarmist Non-sense train with me!

Andy Beshear ran this ad on abortion against Daniel Cameron in his race for re-election for Kentucky Governor. This is a great example of the type of personal, emotive, hard hitting ad that the Biden team needs to be running against Trump. This is a devastating ad because of the way it makes you feel and think, not because it is a traditional, scary, boogyman style attack ad.

Any guess on how many more of the Clan of Trump will come out with a similar ad..

I’m convinced Rick Scott doesn’t reproduce, he spawns.

The minute Sean Spicer falsely claimed, against all the visual evidence, that Trump had the highest attendance ever at an inauguration, we should have known that would be the order of things for those people.
