Of course and you definitely did that in Texas and it's typical arrogance led the way on that. And that is Wednesday in dire need of Martial law and federal house cleaning.
The ERA passed Congress in the 1970s; it was ratified by 3/4 of the states in 2020. WE NEED PRESIDENT BIDEN TO PUBLISH IT. And to do that, we need a mass movement urging him to take action. Take action at https://bidenpublishtheera.org
I can't beleive that in some states when a woman tells you she's pregnant you want to say,"I'm so sorry to hear that,I'm sure you'll be OK but do you know what you're going to do if you have complications?
I'll pray for you
Instead of
Do you know I'd it's a boy or a girl?
Propaganda Works....The Fascist Money Management of "News"is a Sharp Tool. A Majority of Voters never Heard Policies or Facts. Now Real Media and News Sources will get a Beat Down. The Goal of His Eminence.
I live in Detroit and have a valid passport till 2027. Please feel free to put me in touch with any account that needs or may need in the future, people to drive to Canada.
This is beyond appalling, barbaric and a tragedy for women and the families who love them. The suffering being perpetrated on women in the name of someone's backward religious beliefs is medieval and stills shocks me given all that humanity has achieved scientifically by the year 2024
Red states hid the toll their policies take. Transparency is another thing that Republican states dislike. It would be discovered by diligent reporting but there are fewer and fewer dedicated to real journalism. We need to bolster those still willing to report the truth!
Exactly. Pretty sure that same was done with Covid numbers. We may never know the true total of people who died due to rump’s thoughtlessness and cruelty.
We live in a post truth world. We cannot trust the government, the media or anything else. Thanks to unregulated AI we can't trust anything we don't see happen right in front of us.
If you have children in HS, now would be the time to try and persuade them too study abroad, learn a different language, and live in a foreign country— preferably places like Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark, and The Netherlands. Their quality of life will be 10x better than here.
obviously. You didn't need AI and power control of information to disavow consequences from actions as a despot, but it helps in the disinformation age
Like no one will notice that their loved one is DEAD. Republicans are beyond short sighted. Hopefully, Americans will continue to tell their stories loudly in these red States.
They've been clear that their attitude toward women's deaths is "too bad so sad." They do not care if women die. They'll just force the living ones to breed.
There are a handful of pundits who are quick with the “I warned you”s—often about the most obvious things—but you never see them admitting to being wrong about anything.
This is sickening. Maternal mortality rates are increasing due to near or total abortion bans when women can’t get the standard of care recommended for their conditions. People of color are most impacted. And rather than change practices to save lives, some GOP states are covering up the statistics.
I think they’re going to start covering up all forms of data that suggest their policies are not working as intended. For the next for years, inflation will be at 2%, as far as we know.
When women band together, they are a powerful force, but still, many allow men to dictate their every way of life. Politicians quote the Bible and talk about their christian beliefs, but very few live by it. Who are they going to control if not women?!
I just… can’t wrap my head around it! These low life muthaf_cker in maga gop.. would think differently if it was their, daughters, wife, mother, niece, sister’s… we are nation of sicko ignorant SB!
Can only hope they didn’t… but…. Everyone is quite and press is not pushing it… now if it was a democrat…. Shit ! You would not hear the end of it…. REALLY! Non stop… no respect to to the families…it was shut down rather quickly..😀
This is evil. They should be required by law to keep statistics. Most of these states are hate people of color and Women of color are hit the hardest with mortality rates. This is absolutely pure evil and racist
There are other (admittedly more tedious) ways to create those records. If a woman dies from a lack of abortive care, the family should request an autopsy. That is a public record that can be requested and the data aggregated. Time consuming? Yes. But possible.
Ahhh, the political call of the GOP (MAGA). If you can’t prove you are right with the current evidence and facts…lie! Statistics will tell any story you want them to, including false stories, if you package it right.
Yes, you and a lot of people. Your I was right about this or that is one reason I stopped listening to your podcasts. Who cares if you were “right”? So tiresome
This is what they did about the atrocities the government has perpetrated on the various tribes. I had no idea until I read "Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee" that they had happened.
I had no misconception that this will be happening.
The old, white, wealthy men that are frightened of losing their majority (women have already surpassed men in numbers), are going to do these things in the dark.
I'm in Florida.My county consistently votes Blue, voted to codify abortion rights in state Constitution, went for Harris, etc, etc.Also voted to retain the 3 Scott/DeSantis-appointed state Supreme Court judges on ballot who are active and complicit in enabling the Florida R's.
No they are afraid that Kamala Harris is a woman and a woman of color could run this country towards better. But is it true that there were an alarming number of bullet votes? I am asking about the bullet votes not our much more qualified candidate VP Harris.
We need to stop being confused. The real reason is disinfo. People are being tricked on a MASSIVE scale
Trump didn't win, Dems lost.. to lies
The popularity of Ds has tanked the past 2 years, and HEAVILY the last 6 months. This is precisely after major changes to media, particularly Elon & socials
It is not a right now. A right is something beyond the ability of legislators to pass laws against. Governments can pass laws one way or the other WRT abortion. We need to come to grip with the fact that SCOTUS removed a right. It will not be the last one.
What confuses the hell out of me is the number of split-ticket ballots cast! Why bother voting for a Democrat for House or Senate and vote Republican (TRUMP) for president? Still in search of someone who will help me make all this make sense!
Who, of course, wants to preempt state laws and state constitutional protections of right to choice in women's healthcare with a federal ban. Do schools not teach civics anymore?
They were saying they were voting for trump because he would protect their rights. They do not believe anything bad about trump period. They don’t accept it. Their brains have been broken. Or washed, if you will. No joke. Mob mentality is a scary thing. It’s a force that turns people.
I believe the Dems plan was to have more people come out to vote and they thought it would also support the Dems agenda. But forgot to mention that even if it is voted in the state still remains NOT SAFE bc GOP GOVERNED STATES CAN FIND WAYS TO CANCEL PPLS VOTES. FL has done it on many occasions
I've thought about this a lot. And I think they thought they could have the "best" of both worlds. Protect themselves, and have trump. Also, a big part of his appeal is no one really knowing where he stands on anything and the belief he "doesn't really mean it" in regards to bad stuff.
I do not trust the voting results at all. We know it was manipulated with help from the Muskrat and foreign entities. There’s no way to see clearly until a complete analysis is completed. Why are GOP men so frightened of women? Why the need to step on us like we are cockroaches?
I don’t believe it. When they got access to voting machines they figured a way to change numbers just enough for Trump to win. I think they did it in 2016 too but in rural areas where it was easier. This time it was tabulation numbers, fake mail in ballots and suppressing votes in blue areas.
Mindbogglingly stupid, but it exposes an important point—one doesn’t “close the deal” w voters until you tell them why voting like this leaves a major path open to overrule what you just voted for.
The firehouse of far right propaganda from rwnj corp media and Faux Spews and their copy cats along with a huge pool of MAGAt Russian stooge podcasts was too much to overcome
Like Missouri 🤦♀️. I don't understand the people here at all. These Republicans are doing everything to over turn what was voted for by the people. When will these people learn in this state🤷🏻♀️🤦♀️.
We figured out that Russia interfered in the 2016 election and it didn't change the results. While I can be hopeful, I can't be optimistic that even if there is/will be an investigation, that it will change the results.
Very hard to believe because he completely bragged on how he got them taken away so the States can have control over a woman’s body. It just doesn’t add up. Folks need receipts for their votes to make sure they fairly counted in the future.
When will MAGA realize that they are helping billionaires screw them? 🙄 We need more Bernie Sanders to spread the word. Dems have failed to fight against the establishment.
Quite simply the best way to sum up what happened in the last few years. Not really left vs right or rural vs urban it's the haves vs the have not. The haves got us all to fight for crumbs with the promise of cake.
The problem is truly that MAGA doesn’t care about the truth in this thread. They’ll deal with anything to “own the libs”. It’s pathetic how far down the rabbit hole they are.
Indeed. Republicans went all-in on their strategy of relying on lies well before donnie’s first red hat. They were eager to lap up his fake news takes and special talent for bullshit b/c they knew it was a losing play in elections to tell the truth about their plans. GOP and MAGA is Anti-Truth!
I wish more people here understood this concept. Some do make the claim that we are the smart ones (although they say it differently).
In my rural area(last 45 years)Red and Blue get along just fine, help each other when needed and respect each other's hard work building our community.
The local level and community action is where it’s at. Certainly for the next 2-4 years. We do OK here, too. I have a feeling a good number of places do, too. Hope I’m not wrong. Wishing your area well.
Those idiots will vote against air if other people would receive it too. That’s how far gone they are. So I’ve stopped with the sympathies for the leopard eating my face crowd
Because Trump supported each states peoples right to determine their own abortion laws. Overturning Roe/a one size fits all abortion law allowed each state to choose its own path.
My son the poly sci student says we screwed ourselves by having thre separate ballot issue as it allowed them to split the vote. May have been better to NOT have it separated
I know that this is a legal impossibility, but I wish that those who are the survivors of those who have died because of abortion band band together and sue the states for gender based discrimination resulting in manslaughter. That could address it from a civil rights framework.
It's absolutely possible and essential. It is discrimination on the basis of sex. The government cannot argue their priority is to protect life when mothers are dying. Plus they can show all the kids killed by firearms (the number 1 cause of death for children in the U.S.) to undermine that lie.
I’d like to know where ACOG (American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists) is on this. Where’s the protest, op-Ed’s? ACOG has spent the last decades trying to decrease maternal morbidity & mortality, all medical providers looking at changes to increase safety for women. Where are they?
Is it sad that I can imagine signs, mailers, and tv ads showing total avoidable deaths attributable to republicans and democrats with republicans being 10x those of democrats and yet republicans would still win?
I'm in Australia. There's not a lot I can do to help in any real, practical way. I figure this is a good place to ask
Does anyone have recommendations for an organisation that needs donations to help women get to where they need to be, in order to get the care they need?
To be honest, things like that probably won't be widely shared in a thread because it could be dangerous for those who need to seek help.
Hopefully, you'll get some direct messages from people in the know.
Thanks. I thought that might be the case. I've some friends in the US and the first thing their daughters did after the election was delete their period tracker apps. The menace is real and pervasive.
Even then, she'll be quietly whisked to a state that does abortions and will come back after a few days from a "holiday". These laws are to punish poor women for the crime of existing.
I think it's ironic that Republicans warned of "death panels" back in 2009, and now look at what has come to pass ... Republicans deciding who is dispensible.
Sex, genitalia, what people are doing privately, pregnancies, teen girls;they’re all sick and twisted. I am convinced most of them are either closeted and despise themselves or they’re pedos. I wish someone would start investigating each one of them. I’m sure dirt is just waiting to be dig up.
It’s because the worst thing you can be is a paedophile so it’s the worst slur you can say but it’s astounding just how many of them are actuallypaedophiles themselves.
It’s the same in the UK. The far right party is full of convicted paedophiles & sex offenders. I wonder what the link is 🤔
Then the AGs & state need to be paying for medical care for mother from conception then for both mother & child until 18 then fund trust funds for each child’s housing & education if they are saying they’re in loco parentis
"An analysis published in September by the Gender Equity Policy Institute found that, from 2019 to 2022, the rate of maternal deaths in Texas increased by 56%, compared with 11% nationwide," wrote Rinkunas.
This is a ramping up on the war against women. We are becoming too powerful and it is scaring men, who want us subservient and obedient and controllable. Well, we aren't backing down and they can fuck off.
The first sign of this type of behavior being okay was Trump in 2020 talking about covid and saying "we have more cases than anybody in the world because we do more testing". May 14 2020. Everyone should expect disinformation and lies from all levels of the new incoming Trump admin.
Also June 20 2020 "When you do testing to that extent, you're going to find more cases, so I said to my people, slow the testing down please". MAGA governors are also going to use this concept to under count the effects of their abortion bans, lack of health care etc.

My parents are EXTREMELY pro-life, but consistent. They care about women and families and want increased social spending. When Dobbs came out, I expected them to be happy. My mom said, “People are going to get hurt, either way.”
Wouldn’t this be where journalism comes into play? Instead of reading the “news” journalists need to get back to investigating and reporting instead of waiting until their book deal goes through.

The truth can’t be erased that easily. We’ll see more reports like these no matter how hard states try to hide their anti-abortion stance is pro killing women.
No republican has ever or will ever care about any baby or child, or mother, period. Looking at the issue, it is plain to see that the Republican party is the party of pro-embryo, pro-fetus, forced birth, and anti-refugee. They are not pro-life, pro-child, pro-mother, pro-health, or pro-family.
Second this, the further they insulate the less chances we have to stop them. Divide and conquer is a phenomenal strategy but only if you can actually “get in”
I recently saw a small blurb in a SC paper about an uptick in abandoned babies and young children in the last couple years, not much on maternal deaths or health. Then again SC is one of the worst states to be a pregnant woman if you want to live or even be healthy.
Thank you for sharing this.
It is tragic, so pointless ... for what? so hypocrites in church can feel better about themselves while they are helping to murder women.
Disgusting.
Of course. Just as they covered up Covid deaths. If Cuomo tried to do it, and NY was supposedly hit hardest AND under a microscope, imagine what some *red states* may have actually hidden. This will be no different. There's no "we were wrong" from Republikkklans.
I say this because the good guys are usually very good at talking to each other. Hopefully they can all get better and pushing out these kinds of stories on blast.

Witlessly ignorant of the coming national ban
Abortion rights supporters were targeted with "Trump supports states rights" and then these people voted for their state protections on the ballot.
I want to see many thousands of real posters made, put up in places all over.
Need to find the original/credit for this. I first saw this visual only recently.
But seriously, I’m afraid too.
In my rural area(last 45 years)Red and Blue get along just fine, help each other when needed and respect each other's hard work building our community.
