I honestly don’t think Desantis even believes this story.

It’s probably safe to say that Murdoch has done more harm to democracy around the world, than any single person post WWII.

These idiots, despite having extremely strong opinions about abortion, know next to nothing about it, just like the Bible they go on about, but haven’t ever read.

The same policies capital always has against the working class: consolidate power, regulatory capture, crush unions, propagandize via privately owned media, endless war, create outgroups and ingroups to fight each other to distract from the class war, and fall into fascism/autocracy/dictatorship.

Outside of various state-owned media under various dictatorships or autocratic regimes, there really is no comparison to Fox News\AM radio\right-wing media eco-system in history.

23 week fetus that survived in 1955. I call 100% bullshit.

The current GOP platform, if written out at length, was described to me by a friend as “Mein Kampf without the coherence”

Thank you. People who say the Republicans have no policy ideas are kidding themselves. The policy is theocracy.

I’m sorry but the image of multiple abortion attempts is absolutely killing me right now, like the fetus is just dodging instruments like the fucking road runner.

Sadly, this is the GOP version of having a hot Canadian girlfriend. She impresses all your friends and she’s just as real.

Presumably then why they ended up with nicknames like “Vanilla ISIS” and “Y’all Qaeda”. Also just as likely to bite them in the ass, as supporting the Taliban during the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan.

Is there even a line between the right-wing media and the GOP itself? Both are focused on generating hatred for “the other” of the week.

Also, if this had happened in 1955, it’s almost 100% doubtful that she would have survived, (being only a pound and a few ounces). There was nothing like a NICU in any hospitals at that time, and most fetuses that were pre-born at that early a stage died within minutes (as there was nothing the doctors could do to…

They discovered the only way to consistently energize their base is to pump out a new outrage on a weekly basis. That is now their sole platform.

So amongst all the bullshit, the fact is that abortion was actually illegal in Michigan in 1955. This supposed miracle therefore isn’t exactly a ringing endorsement for banning abortion, since it clearly didn’t stop the ‘parents’ in this case.

In a related story, Idris Elba and I are getting a divorce.

Yeah this story won’t make him seem less weird at all. 🙄

If that were true, surely her name should be Panny not Penny

You’re just saying that because it’s supported by facts.

i have the feeling that lots of them southerners who love this song are both obese & milking welfare.
