She was 9 weeks pregnant. She died. The state of Georgia is making the doctors keep her alive to incubate the baby. She’s been dead for three months. This is REAL. this isn’t about what should or should not be done. This is about having a VOICE. This is about having a CHOICE.

Does MAGA have amnesia?

Qatar protected Khalid Mohammed, helping him evade U.S. capture. He was the mastermind behind 9/11 - orchestrating the death of 2977 people. It should alarm every intelligence agent, strategist, & citizen - that Trump just accepted an airplanes from al-Qaeda sympathizers!
