No Sympathy. No Care — the GOP slogan that MTG may be turning away from. I hope she apologizes to NJ some day.
After MTG lied about me for weeks, she said that she felt bad for my unborn child because he'd have me as a mother. Her rhetoric led to threats against my family.
No one, even her, should receive threats like those, but I'd like to see her own up to the role she played in creating them for others.

What could a representative Congress look like? If Democrats could create a vision, it would be a nice contrast to a Unitary Executive Theory (UET) vision. It would have to include campaign finance reform.

I spoke up about Israel on the other site and quoted the Christian bible and was immediately flagged for hate. Yet we can endure residential school and genocide denialism on the daily on these sites. Yah, tell me how supremacy isn't winning. White people, you need to take a stand against your own🪶

If you don't want to parent, should you be forced into having kids?
too many people want to have kids but don't want to parent
some significant part of this is just catch-all fear for “this is not the child I ordered” I think

The 2 survivors climbed atop wreckage and waved to overhead.

Hmm. Ghislaine Maxwell is filing a habeas petition challenging her incarceration PRO SE (no lawyers). I guess even David Markus has his limits? Incidentally, she's worried that the release of the Epstein files would be devastating to her case.

I called to thank DeWine for vetoing this as well as say - “since he values children & the state of ohio to also veto HB 129, HB 186, HB 335, which would be disastrous for Ohio children’s educations.“
A BIG WIN 🎉🎉
Governor DeWine listened to your calls and VETOED the bill that would weaken child labor laws ( #Ohio SB 50 )!!
