People! 'sane washing' has finally made it into the mainstream and NYT in 2024. I was talking about this in 2016! about how Katy Tur and others paraphrase what this lunatic says into something acceptable. Now maybe they can deal with all his lies and flip flops about abortion including the utterly preposterous 'babies are killed after birth.' Frankly, why are not people exhausted by this man and the evil he has brought on this country in the last decade?
These attacks on ballot measures are sickening. I don’t know how these people can live with themselves!! I’ll be praying for Missouri tonight because the state Supreme Court will be ruling in the morning on their appeal 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
Here's a link to Jess Piper's substack for an on the ground look at the dirty tricks in Missouri to keep abortion away from voters:
"We gathered the signatures we needed to put abortion on the ballot and submitted them to the Secretary of State who certified them, but here’s the thing: I live in Missouri, and our lawmakers do not respect the will of the people. Missouri Republicans have tied our hands and kept us from good governance with a trifecta. A supermajority. But we have one remedy we have repeatedly turned to: The citizen-led petition. And that’s what we have done again to reverse our total abortion ban."
"Republican lawmakers and their handlers know that bodily autonomy and the right to an abortion are issues that will win on the ballot. These same folks have tried different methods to keep voters from having the option of voting on abortion."
I'm sorry to do this here, but I am a paid subscriber, and I can comment on my laptop, but not on my Android. It keeps asking me to upgrade to paid. Can someone please tell me what I need to do? Many thanks.
And Jessica, again, your work is astonishing in scope and content. Thank you for what you do!

The woman crying personifies the angst felt through out the country and the reaction from KH is what we need right now. Policies and work will follow any Democrat elected. We just have to stay away from the current Rs running everywhere.
Here's yet another dirty trick by the anti-forces: stealing patient data from real reproductive clinics. It should be noted that Massachusetts is currently running a strong public awareness campaign against faux crisis pregnancy clinics, and yet women's health information was stolen, allegedly by one of these "clinics".
I have to admit that I haven’t always read the updates on ballot initiatives for the last few
months because I find the attacks on this process actually so depressing that I can’t really cope. But I am grateful for this summary - it is, as expected, horrifying and enraging. I hope someone can get these talking points to Harris stat.
Yes! and back to the states means mini dictators like DeSatan running rough shod over our rights and creating enormous chaos and misery. I hope she takes this opportunity to say 'elect good people at all levels.'
I would love to see women denied medical care in their state due to draconian abortion bans to sue their governor and state legislators for practicing medicine without a license, because that is what these mini-Mussolinis are doing.
Is there a watch thread tonight?

wow, impressed at the big words. Must be AI. Put a sock in it.

I hope the GOP dismantling of abortion initiatives in many states acts as a wake-up call to vote ALL Republicans out of office - not just Trump.

Because of you, Jessica, we are Well Aware. But we don't have your contacts on the Hill. Get Patty to put this under the right noses!
Well said! Please share on your social media!

As a retired surgical assistant, so would I.
I think she's going to hammer on Dobbs hard. I hope so.
