Indeed. I think we will see it again in a few weeks. I will also be saying this. I am so sick of these people. MIND YOUR OWN DAMN BUSINESS and HANDS OFF OUR BODIES. They contribute to the deaths and difficulties of many people, and besides that I hate bullies.

Messaging to all voters: a national ban on abortion could still be attempted AND that every voter needs to elect pro choice candidates in their STATE LEGISLATURES These are next steps that need to be on commercials. Need talking heads to discuss frequently. We need to go next level here.

Jessica - somebody really needs to make a big deal of this graphic. 50% of white men (highest voting block) against reproductive rights. They need to look in the mirror and get the fucking message that they do not think like everyone. AND that it’s not their job to convert everyone to their way of thinking. AND looking at this graphic and how out of touch that our elected officials making laws locally to federally are what? 90% white men??? That 90% is not representative. This graphic communicates so so much. Can you get this convo going with big voices out there? Rarely do we have such stats to draw from. Arg! I don’t know how to attach this image here. It’s a photo of a nyt exit poll. Someone shared it on your voting night thread...

Coming back to double down on my comment yesterday. The ghoulish head of SBA Pro-Life America sent a memo to congressional republicans this morning. She could’ve saved a lot of time by writing, “You are my bitch, and you will do my bidding.”

These people are delusional in their sense of power. They may very well finish destroying the Republican Party for us. Which is fine by me.

She saved that message for the phone calls! May they implode, and reap the karma they have forced on others.

Alexandra Petri who writes satire for the post has a great column today titled having rights still bewilderingly popular.

Did anyone hear Haley's drivel on the debate stage? "Can we all agree on.... ? [Things we already AGREE ON]." She is the most dangerous one up there because she's deceptive. I wish the press would not let her get away with it. She's a charlatan !!

Thank you thank you! For everything! Today I am remembering the Wave of Women marching in January with pink cat hats ( I still have mine). The energy across the nation was incredible that day. We protested the still unbelievable elected prez. We knew then. I sure would like to see a Women's Rights March before 2024 elections . Keep up the good fight!
