Fascism doesn’t have cuddly leaders. |
They closed ranks around him because Trump ordered them to. Trump is responsible for Paxton still being in office and responsible for the horrible things he’s doing to this woman. |
For as anti-LGBQT as they are, those GOP boys sure like grabbing their ankles for Trump. |
Similar case in Kentucky to the one just decided in Texas - the plaintiff’s fetus has now died.

I don’t fault Axios for reporting, but it feels clucking ghoulish as hell that we’re watching along with women as their pregnancies end slowly and their lives become more endangered. |
So is she now allowed a D&C? Of course Axios' terrible reporting doesn't include this information. |
I can't think of any issue more mobilizing to anyone I know than this.... I feel bad about Gaza and would like something done with the border. But to be honest, the only thing I'm boating on for any foreseeable future is access to women's health..... Every one in my social group rather conservative or liberal feels the same |
They ever find out who leaked the info? |
Yep. Virginia GOP learned that one the hard way. The south we are not. |
Remember when pundits pondered if abortion would be a motivator for the mid-terms, 6 months after Roe was overturned...As these stories keep coming out those pundits (mostly male) look even stupider now than they did last year. |
3 generations are headed to the polls about this. Grandmas who had to fight the first fight, moms who had basically held this right their entire lives, and daughters who are going to fight the fight again. They talk about it and they encourage each other to get registered, get involved and get to the polls. Hopefully with millions of allies in their grandpas, dads, sons, brothers, uncles,friends, etc. |
She should be. One of the criteria for preventing abortion is the heartbeat rule. Therefore the ban no longer applies when the fetus no longer has a heartbeat. |
No, but it was a friendly “investigation” headed by Bushie Michael Chertoff who never even interviewed the Justices. Bunch of reporting at the end of the leak thread here: https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/4320/1055327.page And there’s a lot of circumstantial evidence that it was probably Alito: https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/1095119.page |
Let's not forget that abortion was a focus-group chosen issue to bring white evangelicals and white Catholics into the Bircher project. The Birchers wanted to roll-back the New Deal. The evangelicals wanted to undo civil rights. All hated liberals. |
Ironically it helped to drive people away from the Catholic church. But I guess they can count on some (not all) of the remaining. |
