If it were the case that Republicans were now finished stripping away reproductive rights (whether abortion or contraception,) and were ready to move on from the topic, then you’d be correct. But that’s *not* the case. The simple fact of a Democrat sitting in the White House is a huge protection for reproductive…

I’ve actually seem plenty of pro Gaza folks saying they aren’t voting for Biden. They are all over social media.
And you can’t be pro women if you ignore the Israeli women who were raped on October 7th.
“I don’t see the protesters saying not to vote for Biden.”
at any other point in history you’d be correct, but right now, these protests functionally amount to pro-trump action. any chipping away at Biden’s support right now brings Trump one step closer to the white house. It’s not like the protests will have any tangible effect whatsoever other than functionally serving as…
If what they really want is a ceasefire in Gaza, they’re not likely to get it from a Trump White House. They’re overwhelmingly more likely to get an escalation and broadening of the conflict. Recall when Trump relocated the US embassy to Jerusalem? These are not the actions of a man who wants to deescalate anything.
Hell, if Trump were in office, this would probably have already erupted into a full-blown regional conflict. We’d probably be bombing Lebanon and Yemen (and not just the Houthis,) around the clock.
Jezebel: Abortion Abortion Abortion!
Oh, good! one issue voters shooting themselves in the foot and helping Trump get back in the White House!
you can pat yourself on the back and feel like a good citizen when Trump gets in then lol
None of Crystal’s progressive friends in the state of Iowa are voting. America’s two-party system is a fake democracy which offers only senile male perverts as candidates. That’s what she said.
Yeah, like babes Trump would be way worse for Gaza he would be cheering as they put settlements back in. Like why don’t you interrupt some Republican stuff too, they’re half the vote in Congress
So we all know what’s going on. Biden expresses support for Israel publicly and ships them weapons, while urging that they respect the rules of war. Behind the scenes, his State Department is trying to cool things down and negotiate an end to this. Quite frankly, after Oct 7, that’s the best situation the Palestinians…
I was at the rally. I took the opportunity to speak to female American graduate student Crystal Jewell. Crystal is convinced there’s no point in voting. American democracy is broken and she won’t waste any more of her time on it. That’s what she said.
Framing the Israeli Palestinian conflict as a reproduction issue is cynical. While ignoring the fact that up until the attack on Israel, Israel was frequently treating Palestinian woman with complicated pregnancies. Gaza City would have been a wonderful place for women to have children and children to grow had Hamas…
How to re-elect Trump, STEP 1:
These people are gonna fuck around and bring us President Trump again.
A vote for any candidate other than Biden is a vote for Trump. Not voting is a vote for Trump.
Trump cut $200M in aid to Palestine after the PLO wouldn't join his peace talks. The Republicans didn't care then and I can't imagine that they will now.
The vice squeezing Palestinian Americans and their allies — Arab Americans, Muslim Americans, and plain old “regular” Americans who care about innocent human lives — is indescribable right now.
