What has never made sense to me is the fact that these republican voters miss the fact that granting control over women’s reproduction means she doesn’t own that right; the state does. And if the state owns the right then the state can determine if you are allowed to start a family, how many children you can have, when you will be sterilized, how you will deliver your children, all in the way it serves the state. That’s not a democracy. In democracy, the state serves the people; not the other way around.

the normalization: they're not even hiding what they're trying to do

Republicans have learned that no matter how noxious they are, they can always get at least ~48% of the two-party vote nationally, and always be within a hair's breadth of total control of all branches of the government. Unless and until that changes, it's a feedback loop and they will keep getting worse.

The republican politicians who are writing the bans on abortion and travel are not acting as true Christians. They have become radicalized and are godforsaken idol worshipers. What they are doing is not what true Christians would do. Remember WWJD? What would Jesus do? Well, NONE of this!! It is really sick how they are trying to take all rights away from women and girls. So sick!!! Let's teach them a lesson in November.
