Sending abortion "back to the states" has only shown how undemocratic and extreme many states are. -

@TCatInReality Well-stated. It has, for sure. And, of course, we knew from the outset that the whole concept of states' rights was crafted to preserve the institution of slavery by thwarting democratic attempts to overturn it.

@a_phlaming_phoenix Yes, morality has long since flown out the window for the political party that not so long ago shouted to us that it and it alone defended morality and values and the bible and God.

The same states that ban abortion provide absolutely no help for medical expenses, therapy, etc.
Republicans wage war on women, rape campaigns are part of that war.

Red states would rather let a patient die than let her terminate a dangerous pregnancy. And they’re barely pretending otherwise.

Study estimates 64,000 pregnancies from rape in states that enacted abortion bans post-Roe
Polls show about seven in 10 Americans say abortion should be legal in cases of rape or incest. But since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, nine states have banned abortion in those cases. A study in the Journal of the American Medical Association calculates there have been more than 64,000 rape-related pregnancies in areas with bans. John Yang discussed the study with Dr. Samuel Dickman.

Pete Buttigieg described in detail why the GOP are clinging to the malign influence narrative about immigrants & pets.
It's to hijack a news cycle after the debate where Trump was a failure & avoid focus on issues. It's a deliberate media strategy.

Pete Buttigieg has become a Trump Whisperer. He gets it. On CNN, he explained very simply what’s going with “eating pets” in Springfield, Ohio.

@wdlindsy send abortion regulation to the states? Then send it to the people of each state. You are a government by the people, for the people. Not a government by politicians for politicians or by politicians for An authoritarian wanna-be!

@drtuck And yet, we see in state after state that, when the people attempt to place referendums about abortion rights on the ballot, Republicans do everything in their power to block those referendums. They do not want people voting on this issue, because they know they are in the minority.
