It’s okay. I have it on good authority (read: JD Vance) that women only worry about “normal things,” not the government exercising control over women’s bodies.
What happens in a woman’s body is between her, her doctor, local law enforcement, local prosecutors and judges, state prosecutors and judges, and the entire federal government.
And her church group, everyone else in town, and the local and national media.
Women are still being excommunicated for having a hysterectomies, even if another child would kill them.
But this week, the issue will not just be rhetorical, but literal as well. Planned Parenthood Great Rivers, which is based in neighboring Missouri, where abortion is banned, announced in a post on X earlier this week that it will be providing free medication abortions and vasectomies from a “mobile health clinic” in the West Loop neighborhood of Chicago on Monday and Tuesday. That’s just under a mile northwest of the United Center, where many of the main DNC events will take place. By Saturday, Planned Parenthood announced that all the appointments had been filled—and, as you may expect, the right promptly began freaking out.
“I thought this was fake but it’s not,” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) posted on X. “It’s hard to even comprehend and it’s truly heartbreaking.” Kristan Hawkins, head of the anti-abortion group Students for Life of America, argued that this action demonstrates the Democrats are “the party of death.” The right-wing Libs of TikTok account called it “demonic.” And a writer for the right-wing Daily Caller described the health clinic as “Kamala’s abortion bus”—though it was not requested by the Harris campaign, a spokesperson for Planned Parenthood Great Rivers said. The Harris campaign did not immediately respond to questions.
That’s awesome.
The best defense is a good offense.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) “It’s hard to even comprehend…”
Not the first time she’s struggled with comprehension, but at least she’s aware of her limitations.
“Republicans need not apply” 👹
They’re just upset the appointments are all filled.
The only moral abortion is my own.
This is the cost of Religious Dogma being woven into the fabric of our Legal system with a gang of witch burning Judges smuggled into the SCOTUS
