“I know that Coach does not want to undermine the readiness of our U.S. military,”

I think a fair and equitable solution would be to remove military postings from states with rolled back or restricted health care access. That way everybody wins, without having to compromise their “principles”. 

Honestly, I’m surprised it has taken this long for the Dems to start chanting this tune. For a while I thought they’d actually found a spine to use, but Sinema is clearly being used as a stalking horse to float the idea of some sort of concessionary climbdown.

She’s chiming in because she hasn’t seen her name in the news lately.

In any compromise between good & evil, only evil benefits.

There’s a couple of things that are bothering me about this. Well, there’s more but, these two quotes in particular.

Well, one possibility the administration could float is canceling the travel policy once it’s no longer needed; perhaps by moving every duty station where full health care isn’t readily available.

Yup. Suggesting they need to “find middle ground” and then giving zero suggestions on what that middle ground could POSSIBLY be is an extra kind of useless.

Boy am I glad we got Krysten “Give me a wad of cash and you can use me like a hand puppet’ Sinema’s opinion on this.

What’s the middle ground? We’ll reimburse you for travel, but only to other states that don’t allow abortion? We’ll reimburse you for travel TO the abortion state but not your return?

Any “tool” that allows one person to be an obstructionist asshole with precisely no meaningful way to end it or repercussions, is a tool that should be removed from the toolkit.

Ah, Senator Sinema finally realizing the downside of making yourself thoroughly irrelevant to both sides.

Well someone binge watched the Diplomat and thought it was realistic!

These assholes will lean so hard into anti-LGBTQ+ bigotry saying it’s “to protect the children,” and then do absolutely nothing when they have an open-shut case of child sexual abuse. I know pointing out hypocrisy should be moot at this point but it just blows my mind.

I am somehow shocked, yet not all at the same time. Reading this poor kid’s story yesterday, I thought wow, this is incredibly sad. I honestly didn’t think it would get worse, but they didn’t do anything to the dude who raped her? I mean.. do they lack stat rape laws at the very least-seeing as she’s too young to…

The nurse has horrible bedside manner and probably shouldn’t have chosen that profession if that’s how she usually treats patients.

Since the state forced the birth where is their support for the mother and baby’s well being? Oh right, once they’re born poor they don’t give shit. Infuriating.

Why wouldn’t the police department want to add another solved case to their tally?

Yeah, if she’d left Mississippi to get an abortion, you can bet he and every state agency would be feverishly going after her, her family, and other “abortion-traffickers” who helped her.  

This is enraging, but not surprising. Glad Holcomb is term-limited, but he’s going to continue to fuck shit up on his way out. He’s almost worse than the ones who shout their shit with a bullhorn because he doesn’t seem interested in national politics right away after his term, so he has no incentive to care what…
