Of course, now that the baby is out the pro-lifers say that they can both go die in a ditch
This is what Republicans want for all of us.
If Republicans win the next election, they will institute a national abortion ban without exceptions for rape or incest.
If you want to stop this, the only way to do so is to vote for Biden. I really hope people understand this.
What it's going to take is to vote in Biden, then whoever the Democrats run in 2028, 2032, 2036. Until enough of the Republican justices die in office that actual jurists can replace them.
Why can't Biden do something to safeguard abortion in his current term?
If he can't do something on his current term, why will he be able to do something on his next one?
Biden doesn't have the authority to safeguard abortion. He had the authority to veto Congress. Biden would veto a nationwide abortion ban. Trump or any other Republican would not.
Additionally, presidents appoint supreme Court justices in the event of a vacancy, or if Congress ever gets on board for expanding the court.. do we'd need a Democrat in office if we're ever going to reverse Dobbs.
It would take an act of congress, and the D's don't have the votes. Shitty but true.
Don't bother, he's from Lemmygrad and just wants to blame the Democrats for everything
Dude, I'm not even from the US. My question is, in my opinion, an obvious one, at least to an outsider to the US political system. Why do you have to vote him again, when he's in power now?
His presidential subscription needs to be re-upped every Summer Olympics
An abortion is not something you should need to be able to afford. It's not a luxury, it's a (often necessary) medical procedure. So fucked up, all of this. I hope the family can achieve some semblance of happiness some day
And the nurse's comment on finding a 13 yr old pregnant? "What have you been doing?" For fucks sake, I hate the world.
Ah yes let's slut shame the 13 year olds instead of doing our due diligence as mandated reporters. Smh.
and it's her rapist's child. a stranger nonetheless. These folks just lack humanity.
Sounds like a Republican's dream
Wouldn't they like to marry the girl to her rapist, because sex outside of marriage is a sin or something?
And it gives them an excuse to marry kids legally
Not in a monogamous society. Rapists don't want to get tied down to only a single child wife. Also, there's no dowry in our society for the rapist to take the burden of raising the girl off the parents' hands.
If Republicans didn't have children with an abused woman, would they have any at all?
The baby's father is so proud he gave expensive cigars to all his fellow GOP congressmen.
I am embarrassed to be American
This is just completely disgusting. When everyone failed her the law wasn't even on her side. Say what you want about abortions in general, but the audacity that people have to make getting abortions under rape or complications political is just disgusting. My heart truly goes out to this little girl, and her family, but especially the little girl. I can't imagine the amount of life altering trauma she has gone through, and how this is going to affect her for the rest of her life. This shouldn't happen to anyone. What the fuck is wrong with people.
Wow that is some serious bullshit right there. For the rest of this girls life she is going to have to share custody with the man that raped her.
They don’t know who it was. It way a complete stranger who raped her when she was playing in her yard. The police haven’t even investigated. He’d have to come forward first.
Makes me sick, fuck that hellhole of a country.
News from ~~Texas~~ USA start to sound a lot like news from catholic Poland lately. I just can´t imagine this kind of fucked up shit is what Jesus wanted though /s
I will fight my ass off to place my children into a conservatorship or even frame them for a crime if they ever consider moving to a place like Mississippi
I assume the girl asked help from the republicans around here, but they couldn't hear her ask over the sound of themselves screaming about how much they want to "protect children".
I was reading a description of this popular novel the other day. It was set in America and was supposedly fiction...
The novel explores themes of subjugated women in a patriarchal society, loss of female agency and individuality, suppression of women's reproductive rights, and the various means by which women resist and try to gain individuality and independence.
I just woke up and this almost made me puke. This is sick.
I see clinics in Carbondale, about 5 hours South of Chicago. I wonder why that wasn't an option?
