Trained lawyers are very, very deliberate about how they speak and know precisely what words mean.

Why did his South Asian mother-in-law have to take leave from her prof job for a full year to move in with them and be a full-time caregiver for their baby? Why didn't JD quit his job for a year to be a full-time caregiver. Why is he joking on a podcast that this is a hidden benefit of marrying an Indian woman?

He just gives the biggest ick ever...

Wow, I just read that link.

So even when the post menopausal woman in question has a PhD, he thinks their only purpose is childcare???

And he seems to suggest such care is his mother-in-law’s obligation to cover (either personally or financially)??????

And this man us taxi g children??

Within the Republic of Gilead, is this the position of a Martha?

We might be getting ready to find out.

Another good reason to check out Vote.GOV (or Vote.ORG, if you like that setup) and make sure you are both legally registered as eligible to vote and have a plan for getting your vote counted.

Yes. I checked and my registration is current.

My 23 year old DS is requesting his absentee ballot.

He said he's in favor of menstrual tracking and preventing women from traveling across state lines (and having police be able to question them) to check if it's for reasons related to reproductive health or abortion.

I can only imagine the opportunity for police abuse and mistreatment if they are able to stop women in cars at night asking probing questions about their sexual activity and menstrual history.

I have two daughters and the republican nominee's vision for our country's future scares me. My older daughter will only be 17 this November so she can't vote and she asks me several times a week, what I'm doing to stop Trump/Vance from winning.

She is scared. So am I.

I am voting for Harris and Walz like my and my daughter's life depends on it. because it does.

I do too. Totally.

I would also like to point out that this audio is clearly edited... who knows what is spliced or missing. And, it is an article from Salon, so that makes it even more questionable.
Having said that, if advocating for having a grandparent assist with the care of a newborn infant is misogynistic, call me a misogynist. I like when he pointed out that she could have just continued working and given some of her salary to help them out, but she chose to help with the care itself.
And, I say this as someone who is currently in this exact position.... and I'm not Indian. A grandmother who is lucky enough to help with the care of her grandchild during the critical first years of development. I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.

That's wonderful but many grandparents are still working, many are infirm, many kids have moved far from home so the grandparents aren't there to help, my own parents have a little of both - my father is still working and my mother has a debilitating disease that would make it impossible for her to have helped even if the kids were still close by enough for them to help to the degree that daycare wouldn't have been necessary.

But it's nice that you've figured out all the secrets to life.
