Fortunately, Americans already have a Constitutional pass to say whatever.

Feminism gives women the benefit of the doubt.  It’s why it’s called feminism.

You’re asking what the president has done to make addicts stop ?  What would you have him do? Outlaw opioids? Done.  Close the border to trafficking? Done.  Draw attention to the innocent victims?  Well that’s FLOTUS trip.

Some of us care more about the inside than the flesh covering.

You should keep telling yourself that.  

Your theory fails on two fundamental points:

The publication printed that his motives were racist BECAUSE his ancestors owned slaves. Both untrue and damaging. Therefore libel (and also upsetting to anyone who values journalism).

The publication stated that because his ancestors owned slaves, his motives were therefore racist.  Knowingly untrue and injurious to his reputation.  Libel.  I’m not confused at all dear.

Reporting that people owned slaves is truthful.  Calling him a racist because of OTHER PEOPLE’s actions is libel.

“isn’t really what she’s being punished for.”

I’m not confused at all. Dredging up irrelevant facts is scummy.  Trying to tar someone with the actions of his relatives to silence him is actionable.

Evil is evil.

PTSD from a nicu stay?  You should give the child to stronger folks.

You are a hateful, vindictive, violent person. I’m sorry to have to be the one to tell you this, but no one will mourn you.

Nope. That’s not how it works, dear. Just because something is true, does not mean it is fair to bring it up. Here is an example to help you; the rape victim was scantily clad, out late and known to entertain many men. All may be true, but all out of bounds if you’re trying to slander her and silence her complaint.

Attempting to silence his political speech with allegations of racism by his relatives is not even relevant to the story.

A lot of things in medicine were “false hope” until that hope was realized.  See IVF.

No. He wants to advance medicine to save more wanted pregnancies.

You are incorrect.  A pregnant woman is indeed a mother and her fetus a baby/child.  Standard medical terminology.

A “journalist” trying to do an end-run around defamation laws to silence political speech is neither the “truth” nor “reporting”.
