"But if there's a lesson to be gleaned... it’s that Democrats avoid the issue of Dobbs, reproductive freedom, bodily autonomy and women’s rights at their own political peril. When abortion triumphs by double digits in ruby red Kansas... political wisdom needs to be set on fire."

Wow.
Georgia Senate candidate Herschel Walker said, “There’s not a national ban on abortion right now and I think that’s a problem.” We must stop these Republican extremists at the ballot box.

To sum up: abortion bans bad.
Quote Tweet
New York Times analysis indicates that states with abortion bans are among the *least supportive* for mothers and children, with:
higher child poverty rates
lower health insurance rates for women & children
worse maternal & infant health outcomes

I learned some things about feline poxvirus as an EXAMPLE to talk about a similar virus. If a cat gets a catpox, it can spread to cat people.
If there’s an outbreak & only cat folks can be tested, it will seem like ONLY cats or cat people get it. Cats start getting dirty looks.

This is what happens when you have an AG who lets the statute of limitations expire on a 2-year investigation into 10 counts of obstruction without so much as an *explanation* to the public: Trump sees the presidency as a get out of jail free card

Thanks to the filibuster, 41 Senate Republicans representing just 21% of the country are blocking abortion rights, clean energy, health care, and basic investments supported by the vast majority of Americans. This is not how democracy is supposed to work.

There's a feasible estimate that Dobbs will add about $13 billion to the deficit over 10 years via Medicare. But few of the traditional "government spending is bad" folks want to talk about it.

The House just passed a record-high $840 billion Military budget, the same amount as all the stimulus checks combined.
Huh, guess when they print money for people it's "socialist," but when they do it for Military contractors it's "bipartisan."

Worth noting these are all sexuality related issues. I'm all for getting SCOTUS out of the business of legislating these issues but can only hope Congress doesn't fuck it up either.

With our basic rights under threat from a rogue Supreme Court, Congress needs to exercise our legal authority to the fullest extent. That's why today we called on @SenSchumer and @SpeakerPelosi to support stripping the Supreme Court’s jurisdiction over abortion.

It's the excellence, knowledge & the truthtelling by Prof. Khiara Bridges for me. Her testimony is a masterclass. This is a must watch.

Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) tries to mock Berkley law professor Khiara Bridges for using the phrase "people with the capacity for pregnancy" during a Senate hearing on abortion.
She was having none of it.
