That isn’t how investigations work. They churn away, doing their job and building evidence, and rarely does the press get to see anything. Whatever that dipshit in office is doing, and whatever the media is screaming about today, there are people whose sole job is interviewing witnesses, documenting connections and…

Is everyone forgetting that the *Republicans* could have passed this without a single Democrat getting on board, and didn’t? Why is anyone playing into the narrative that the Democrats were the problem.

You know, I’m starting to think this guy isn’t as good a negotiator as he claims he is.

Fortunately this will never be needed in America because of our highly successful Abstinence Program.

This (not really but sorta) happened when Indiana’s legislature passed their own fetal remains law. The people participating in the Periods for Pence campaign flooded the governor’s and bill sponsor’s offices with phone calls describing their monthly flows, symptoms, etc. and asked what to do with any, um, chunks…

Dear old guy,

These fetal burial laws are a one-two punch against progress. Not only does it punish women who receive abortions (or miscarry) in a heartless, state-sanctioned, forced-religion kind of way, but it denies anyone from donating fetal tissue for scientific research. Because you know, people with neurological disorders…

Always repost:

Republicans love to pick and chose what they want. If I had a dollar for every one I encountered who looks wistfully back to the “good ‘ole days”, I’d be sipping a blue drink on my own yacht. They are morons who read about the days of yore, when women did nothing but fuck them, cook for them and asked nothing of them.…

It’s really important that Democrat voters also get out in number and vote in their state and local elections, not just for the presidency. It’s these state elections that have the most consequence for these stupid TRAP and woman-punishing laws.

When you tell a 22-year-old to turn off the phone, don’t ruin the movie, they hear please cut off your left arm above the elbow.

Yep, I’m currently miscarrying (as in, still bleeding from my chemically-induced miscarriage. It’s been a fun week at work) because at 6 weeks there was no heartbeat and the fetus stopped growing. We’re disappointed, but we know that healthy pregnancies don’t miscarry. I had very high hormone levels, which is…

Yeah. Had a bunch of miscarriages, did this a bunch of times, and in case it’s not perfectly obvious to everyone, it was certainly shoved into my face over and over: a fertilized egg is not a baby; an embryo is not a baby; a fetus with a heartbeat is not a baby. If you are very unlucky, as my cousin was, even a…

There’s 1000 things wrong with this, not the least of which is:

I made a burner for this. No one knows this story except me, my husband and our healthcare providers. I had an abortion of a baby I wanted more than anything, ever. I loved her so much.

I mean, they’ve acted like they wouldn’t, but they’ve never thrown a hissy fit like the Republicans in the Senate Judiciary committee are currently throwing. It’s fucking ridiculous how these assholes are Constitutional scholars when anybody dares mention “gun” and “control” in the same sentence, but they are…

Yeah, this is all about managing expectations. McConnell et. al. are doing their best to make it seem normal that they’re not going to do their jobs, and Obama is just making it clear that the expectation is that they will. Establish the idea that the Senate is supposed to at least give the nominees a vote, and…

The biggest mistake he ever made was when he was first elected and had the majority he tried to play ball with both sides, I think he really thought they would get over their hate of him if he played fair, and learned the hard way they wouldn’t. Which is why senior year Obama is executive ordering things left and…

Calm on the outside. You can imagine whats’ going on inside...

He’s doing the only thing possible: speaking like the rational person he is in the face of Senatorial dysfunction and political vindictiveness that borders on insanity. I admire President Obama’s determination to take the high road. It might not get him anywhere at the moment, but with statements such as this, he’s…
